You Can Play as Magneto in Grand Theft Auto V
Grand Theft Auto V already has a lot of ways that you can be destructive in the game, and now here comes one more. You can now play as the X-Men villain Magneto thanks to a mod from JulioNIB. So if you ever wanted to see Magneto let loose in Los Santos and just destroy everything, you can live that dream.
The video below pretty much shows off what Magneto can do. This includes basically every power that we saw him use in the X-Men films like the “steal your guns and shoot you with them” power. And obviously picking every damn thing up and throwing it. You can also super punch vehicles, create a tornado, and rip things out of the ground.
You can rip stop signs out of the ground and impale people, make planes crash into each other and a whole lot more. When you think about it, Magneto is basically just a kid with superpowers throwing a tantrum and breaking his (and everyone else’s) toys.
PC gamers can get the installation instructions here. This just proves that they could make a kick-ass X-Men game if they wanted to, using the GTA engine. I would love to see the whole team against Magneto.

Minecraft Geeks Recreate Los Santos
If you are a fan of Grand Theft Auto V, you play GTA V right? Well, not if your favorite game is actually Minecraft and presumably, you have a whole lot of time on your hands. In that case, what you do is recreate the world of Los Santos completely in Minecraft blocks.
In this video, you’ll witness the entire virtual city of Los Santos replicated, from trees and fountains to buildings. The only thing it lacks is a bunch of cars for you to jack and people to randomly kill for their pocket change.
This whole blocky world is a scale recreation made by someone going by N11cK along with a group of dedicated Minecraft builders. They figure it will span 7500 x 7500 blocks when it’s all done. Check out N11cK’s YouTube channel for lots more videos showing the construction progress.

Grand Theft Auto 5 Interactive Map for Real iFruits and Fruit PCs
Grand Theft Auto 5 has a couple of useful official apps, but they’re nothing compared to Oisin O’Neill’s interactive and searchable GTA V map. The map has over 2000 locations separated into 50 categories, which you can toggle on or off individually. It also lets you add notes and track your collectibles.
You can view the map on a web browser, but it’s also available as Android and iOS apps. They’re free with ads, and you can pay $1 (USD) to make the apps ad-free.
