Grand Theft Auto 5 (GTA 5) is an amazing game, a reason why I love the game is because of it’s amazing video quality. GTA 5 has so many buttons with different functions which are sometimes hard to remember. A button on the pad (for example, L2 button), has so many functions, so the only way you can remember the functions of all the buttons on the pad is if you write them down or if you have been playing the game for a long time.
GTA is a game by Rock Star games and you can play GTA online where you can also earn or you can just play offline for fun.
So in this article, I will tell you the functions of all the buttons on the pad, so just keep reading on.
