"Grand Theft Auto V," the latest in the legendary series of Rockstar's action-adventure video games, has won praise from fans who had anxiously awaited its 2013 release -- which came five years after the fourth installment.

IGN Entertainment called it "one of the very best video games ever made," and players took to spending day and night with their consoles before giving "GTA" record-high ratings on review sites such as Metacritic.

It's no wonder, then, that many fans want to get the most out of their "Grand Theft Auto V" experience; and for those playing the game on the PlayStation 3 console, GameFAQs has -- as usual -- jumped in with some advice. The site lists a large number of cheats that can produce effects ranging from "invincibility" to "moon gravity."

The commands are entered through by tapping a sequence of keys on your joystick. This usually requires pressing about eight to 12 buttons in the right order. Here we have compiled some of the coolest results you can achieve, along with the combination you need to enter:

  • The fictional state of San Andreas, where "Grand Theft Auto V" takes place, is reportedly based on Southern California. And if you remember that old Albert Hammond tune, you probably don't want to put up with any rain there. That's not a problem with the a cheat that will change the weather according to your likes. Type in: R2, X, L1, L1, L2, L2, L2, Square.

  • Need a little break to stock up on caffeine or potato chips? Or just to take a break from all this crime you're committing in GTA? Luckily, a cheat provides a solution. With the following combination, you will set the game to slow motion and get that well-deserved breather: Triangle, Left, Right, Right, Square, R2, R1.

  • Whether you choose a first-person or third-person view, and whether you make your way around on foot or in a hot ride -- it's a tough world out there in the streets of San Andreas: Taxi driving, firefighting, street racing, bus driving and flying helicopters and planes are all part of "Grand Theft Auto V."
