Revealing mistake: Marriage Counselling: When Michael walks into his house at the start of the cutscene, keep an eye on the bouquet of white roses, shown in the hallway to the left of shot. In the very first frame, the white roses have been animated very brightly. After that first frame, an animation error occurs on-screen, where the white roses suddenly shift to a much more shadowed white.
Revealing mistake: The Big Score (Obvious Approach): If Gustavo Mota is selected as the gunman who will accompany Michael, he will get into Michael's car. When Michael asks if he's ready to do something profoundly stupid, Gustavo says "With you, M? I'd do anything." When he is just about to finish the line, part of his neck passes through his shirt collar.
Revealing mistake: The Big Score (Obvious Approach): When Trevor drops the second container of gold onto the freighter train, the cables that were attached to it fade into the ground once the container has settled on the train.
Revealing mistake: The Ballad of Rocco: Just after Solomon Richards shows Michael his associate producer credit on his new movie, Solomon pours Michael and himself a drink. Michael drinks from the glass, but the level of liquid remains the same and does not lower.
Revealing mistake: In the establishing shots of Los Santos, in the shot of the Del Perro Beach Pier, the railings surrounding it suddenly pop-up onscreen midway through the shot.
Revealing mistake: Casing the Jewel Store: When Michael and Lester return to the garment factory after taking pictures of the jewellery store, there is a shot from the side of the building that pans from the car around to the building. When the shot is panning around to the building, there are some cardboard boxes and other objects shown next to the building that are suddenly animated partway into the shot. They just appear to pop-up onscreen out of nowhere.
Revealing mistake: Father/Son: Michael goes into his backyard with a glass of whiskey, a cigar and listens to music. Michael takes a drink from the glass, but the level of liquid remains the same even after drinking.
Revealing mistake: In the opening establishing shots of Los Santos, there is a shot on the beach showing a woman lying down, and a dog running past her. In the shot, many objects in the background are suddenly animated partway into the shot, making it look as if they appeared onscreen out of nowhere.
Revealing mistake: After the establishing shots of Los Santos are shown, Michael is walking along a street. Whilst this is happening, many details in the background are suddenly animated part way into the shot.
Revealing mistake: Marriage Counselling: Just after Michael and Franklin return to the house after thinking they have outrun Martin Madrazo, the game cuts to a cutscene showing a wide shot of them approaching the house, and Michael thanking Franklin. When this happens, an animation error occurs where the shadows of the house and trees alter on-screen.
Revealing mistake: Just before you enter the Jetty hotel, there is a short driveway you drive up before reaching the parking garage. There are yellow lines along the side of the driveway, however, they are never shown from each angle of the camera. If the shot is rotated around, there is an angle where the yellow lines will just vanish, and there is an angle where the yellow lines will appear.
Revealing mistake: The Merryweather Heist (Freighter Approach): When Michael goes inside the freighter to plant the explosive, he closes the door behind him, but his hand does not touch the door. He just appears to be mining the actions of pulling the handle and the door closes on its own.
