Oh my... I just had the thought, Cuba will probably feature somewhat in this game because Miami's history is so intertwined with it. 

It'll be awesome if R* finally ties the GTA and RDR worlds together by forcing Jason & Lucia to go Guarma for a few missions.

Well GTA Online's treasure hunt side missions were ostensibly given by a descendant of Dutch.  But that's probably not canon.

If there is a GTA Online II with this game, we must recruit Dakota Kai for the DVDVR Cartel.

You bet your ass we will.  Banks will be robbbed, money will be made, crime will pay.

I tend to prefer games where I can play a mass murdering wizard but having said that, who is to say molotov cocktails aren't just a fireball spell, perhaps I will join you all

Even I've given up on Twitter. I knew it would be bad when a drug abusing billionaire took over but I just can't condone continuing to use that platform anymore. It makes me so sad inside.

"Didn't like doing crime" says the guy who disabled satellites during a war at the behest of Putin.  Fuck Phony Stark.

Said the anti-censorship freedom of speech advocate.  What a hard rubber thing he is.  Definitely liked him more when he kept his personal views in his pocket.

I just started playing Red Dead 2 for the first time ever last weekend. I rapidly discovered that my GTA Online "auto-aim - slide up - headshot kill" timing is still with me. Don't even need Dead-Eye.

Haven't played GTA 5 in... a number of years. Right after the Nightclub update happened I think.

Oh man, you're in for a treat.  I just did my third playthrough (beat it originally in early 2019), found it just as amazing, and still discovered things I hadn't seen or done.  Take your time and enjoy it.  And HAVE A LITTLE GOD DAMN FAITH.

There's a non-zero chance we get to do something horrible to virtual Musk.  After all, the last game ended with bundling an egotistical billionaire into the trunk of his car and sinking it in the ocean.  Plus, there was the incident with virtual Steve Jobs.

LENNY!  So many cool little things in that game.  Too bad online was just kind of there.

If?  GTA online 2, or an expansion of GTA online 1 to include VC (hopefully the former, online is bloated and badly needs an enema) is the surest of sure things.

Although Rockstar Games will never do this after the stupid money they've made with GTA V Online, I hope we get standalone single player campaign DLC based in Atlanta (or whatever Rockstar calls Atlanta) for GTA VI. There's at least a dozen stories on Atlanta news that are Florida Man-esque in their craziness and stupidity. They have to have the Marta bus driver stupidly blocking the camera feed of the demolition of the Georgia Dome.

I'm playing through story mode for the 4th time (on 4 different systems, which is nuts) and experienced a weird glitch for the first time, where a plane crashed outside the building during a cutscene.  This isn't my video but it was the same cutscene.  Crazy.

Really not surprising but GTA VI is most likely getting delayed to 2026

You know, when I made this suggestion 6?1/2 years ago, it never occurred to me that they might actually do it

Also, new update feels like the beginning of the end with

Lester retiring

Almost stealthily, GTA has made an update that makes it so you can create random races were you can turn into any car in the game at the end of any lap, a beloved feature on various online modded servers. And it's so fucking fun.

This was debunked on today's Take Two earnings call.   The expectation is still a Fall 2025 release.   

Supposedly the game is going through thorough beta testing currently.

That’s awesome.  I absolutely thought it’d be delayed like GTA5 and RDR2.

[RIPPA]

Kotaku (so take this for what its worth) is educating guessing that GTA VI will release on Oct 28

That is based on Borderlands 4 being Sept 23 (and Take Two being the parent company for both Gearbox and Rockstar) along with Rockstar probably trying to avoid Call of Duty (which would be sometime in November)

Not unexpected nor mad at it...Rockstar doing Rockstar things.  GTA 4 slipped by a year, GTA5 by a few months, RDR2 about a year and a half.  I wouldn't be surprised if "May 2026" became "October 2026."
