Rockstar add nods to James Bond in GTA V

Gaming - 23-09-13
Videogame developer Rockstar, who pulled in $1b in the first 24 hours of its new title Grand Theft Auto V being on release last week, have made some nods to the James Bond films series in the blockbuster game.

Known for their pastiches of crime and gangster movies, GTA V also features some winks to 007.

In one mission, Franklin must dress up in a white tuxedo and steal an Aston Martin DB5, complete with gadgets, from a movie studio. In the game, the car is referenced as a 'JB 700'. You can drop tire spikes, fire front mounted machine guns, and dispose of your passenger with the ejector seat. You can also buy the car for a few million bucks.



Rockstar have also named one of the cheat codes after the latest Bond film. To spawn your player in mid air for a free fall, the cheat has been dubbed 'Skyfall'.
