I keep reading that you can play some games while they are installing(digital download) but I am unable to. Specifically I am installing GTA5 and it says ready to start, however when I select it, it just gives me the loading screen. Is GTA5 just one of those games that you actually can't play while installing? (If you can on even any game)

I recommend not to play GTA 5 while installing because that can corrupt the download somehow, I tried to play AW and I had to delete the game and start it all over.

It really depends what game you are playing!
For example the I got titanfall for my XB1 and had to wait to 100% to play it where as AW I could play the campaign at 25% and the online at 65% but I never actually play them because it slows down the install and can corrupt the game

You can play games while they are installing but you won't have to access to the full game. In most instances, you can only play single player while it's installing.
