With Grand Theft Auto I would say you could start anywhere. Each game features a different protagonist and they play quite different to each other.

I would say playing 4 before 5 is probably a good idea because it doesn’t feel like as much of a tremendous leap compare to going from Vice City to San Andreas. Going from 5 back to 4 would probably make things like the car physics stand out even more.

Rereleases and remasters can be a hurdle. I was thinking about playing a Final Fantasy game about a year ago but got caught up in the pros and cons of each version and what games are connected.

From my understanding most don’t continue on the story but I believe one of the games has a character return, I think it’s Cloud, and I think seven was remastered and separated into two games.

Did you mean something else though? Like I said I haven’t played them
