Buy low sell high, it's as simple as that. Use assassination missions to your advantage too because Lester will tell you where you should invest.

Still barely played it - but did just do a quick police chase after I let my sister have a go whilst I was at the gym :L

Good fun, and reminded me why I love GTA so much! Cannot wait to really get into it, and buying shares in the stock market = dream.

GTA 5 Makes $800 Million in One Day

Take-Two has announced that Grand Theft Auto V generated approximately $800 million in sales worldwide during its first 24 hours on sale. According to Take-Two, this marks “the highest first day retail sales of any title in the history of the company and the Grand Theft Auto series.

Take-Two notes that the figure includes sales across both platforms in all territories, but added that GTA 5 has not yet launched in Japan or Brazil.

"All of us at Take-Two are thrilled with the initial response to Grand Theft Auto V,” said Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick. “Once again, the team at Rockstar Games have outdone themselves, setting the entertainment industry's new standard for creativity, innovation and excellence. Beginning at midnight on Monday, consumers around the world gathered in anticipation to be among the first to experience the evolution of this remarkable series. In North America alone, more than 8,300 stores opened their doors at midnight to welcome fans whose loyalty and enthusiasm were rewarded with what The New York Times called 'the most immersive spectacle in interactive entertainment'. We are incredibly proud of Rockstar Games' creative achievement and could not be more pleased with the success of this launch."

Haven't played it that much as I haven't had time, but I loved the first mission, I thought it was a great way to start off the game! The graphics look great, I love the map - I didn't like the more arcade-like driving and preferred the GTA IV style driving, but I've got used to it. The convertible cars feature is great, I noticed you can get on trams but I don't think you can get on buses? The changing to 3 characters might get confusing, but it is easy to switch. And yeah, hopefully I'll be able to play it more at the weekend .
