The coolest thing about Grand Theft Auto 5 is that in creating such a big and detailed city, there are plenty of things that could be added in for players to do. For instance different roles such as cop, firefighter or even Batman and The Flash can be taken on with corresponding powers and abilities.

Mods make this possible and open up a whole new way to play the game. Be-a-cop mods were very popular in the days of GTA4 and some even came with custom maps. The be-a-cop mod for GTA5 is still being polished but it’s playable and much better than most standalone ‘police simulator’ titles.

Be-a-firefighter is what you expect it to be, but it should provide for an interesting change of pace to the campaign missions. It’s challenging too and like all other popular mods it receives constant updates and bugfixes.

The tsunami mod is also pretty cool, and you can use it in conjunction with one of the superhero mods for an interesting effect. Not interesting enough for you? How about flying a UFO and abducting people?

There are so many that it’d be daft to even try to list them here in any kind of meaningful order, so head on down to the videos to see a few of these mods in action.
