GTA V Map: Not So Big After All?

GTA IV bigger than SA? Ridiculous.

This website just went full f**king retard

SPONG! Congratulations!

Just as a side note... Matt, if you're gonna start using terms like 'do the math' you probably should do the math yourself. 49sq miles divided by 13.9 = roughly 3.5.
That doesn't mean it's 350% bigger though. Just like 20 isn't 200% bigger than 10. It's only 100% bigger. So using actual maths, the articles statement that 49sq m is 220% bigger is more accurate than your assumption of 350%
By the way I still think this article is rubbish and wasn't going to waste my time commenting. But it's people like you that mishear telecommercials stats that piss me off

@MATHew Oh my god you are dumb. That math is wrong. F**kin dumbass

@MATHew
3.5 = 350%.

this pricks are stupid heaters san andreas bigger than iv

they said gta v map is 27.5 squre miles this article is made by haters
go back to play super mario you dump

I can't believe how stupid this guy is

i agree with you too

i'm sure it's a big map but one city make its looks small and most of map are mountains and field

@Matt
Technically, hes closer to right than you. its about 250% 'bigger'. Your right if you said 350% 'the size' of GTA SA, but not 350% 'bigger' than GTA SA. Its a technicality in the wording, for example if it was 100% bigger, then it'd be doubled (13.9+13.9=27.8). So your 350% 'bigger' is 13.9x3.5+13.9=62.55

how is the math wrong? it is 350% THE SIZE of GTA SA, but not 350% BIGGER than GTA SA.

This is the measurements off the map that came with GTA 5. In the bottom left hand corner there is a key with a measurement scale in both feet and meters. I measured it with a ruler and 1 mile=8.8cm. The map is 44.5cm wide and 70.4cm tall. So 5.06miles wide by 8miles tall. This comes out to be 40.48 square miles. And this includes the large amount of surrounding oceans. Rough measurements of the size land including Alamo Sea (I really broke it down and put a lot of work in to get as accurate as possible) came out to be 22.258 square miles (again this is not including any surrounding ocean, only land, seas, lakes, and rivers)
