BUT THE KIIIID IS NOT MY SON
>>738299624>$0You're broke. Homeless
>>738299657my nigerian, hes literally at the start of the game.
I never find open world games to be fun like GTA because the only freedom i can do in this game is shooting random people freely. Is it just me? No im not talking about requiring markers or telling me where to go.
>>738299705Well he's not wrong though.
>>738299758Yeah, GTA games are extremely shallow.
>>738299758It's a fucking PS2 game, it only had like 32mb of ram.
>>738299870Shut up boomer
>>738299932name 1 modern open world game where you can actually do stuff and not just the same repetitive shit over and over.
>And all my systems are down>down down down>AAAAAAAAUUUUU>TOOOOOOO>MAAAAAAA>TIIIIC
>>738299624Only retards repeat the meme that "driving around in GTA is more fun than doing the missions"
>>738300135>drivingI just sit in the car and listen to the radio.
>>738299932>>738300037Name one game from that era that isn’t GTA that gave you the same or better level of freedom.
>>738300185Thats called being wasted. Do the missions, theyre fun.
>>738300250nvm do what you want.i wonder why we cant get the exact gta radio experience on youtube. its always playlists that dont feel like it
>>738300075Honest to god I thought that song was sung by a man
>>738300336Everyone did, but the singer was a black woman so it's no surprise
>>738299758there are tons of things to in San Andreas and Vice City. there wasnt anything to do until GTAV which i enjoyed alot because it had alot more natural strangers and freaks stuff for you to find and do. GTA freedom was never "do whatever you want". its still a crime based sandbox. GTA Online solved your problem and you dont play it because its rightfully shit when it introduces more and more outlandish shit that isnt stealing cars and killing peopl on the street. My favourite thing to do in any of these games is that one barebones Assassination mod in GTAV and just cruise and play music with the clock set to IRL time.
Radios ranked>VCS>VC / SA>III>IV (3 wins only because it has two stations I can listen to in near whole, 4 has great songs on the radio but on like a 1-2 per station basis).>LCS (amazingly not a single good song besides the theme)haven't played V in almost 10 years, I remember liking most of it but I'm not ranking it today. Starting my IV Episodes replay later today
>>738300208Any western rpg?!
>>738300208I felt more freedom with Vampire Masquerade from 2004. Vice City is from 2002.
was MJ really popular enough to deserve being put into such a prestigious video game series like GTA?
Actual radio stations ranked>Flash FM (Vice City)(starring Toni)>Flash FM (Vice City Stories)(starring Toni and Terri)>Flashback FM (III)(starring Toni)the rest dont matter.Shoutout to Lips 106(III) because Cliff is hebechad
>>738300373got my recollection of 3 and LCS conflated between the two, it's a tie by 3 probably still edges out a win by having Push It To The Limit
>>738300208Morrowind & Gothic 2.GTA games were never good in terms of depth of their open world. It was about the vibe and nostalgia of the decade they portrayed through exaggerated stereotypes. Which is why R* hasn't made a good GTA game since SA.
>>738299758Thats why i liked Driver more. Only thing these games have going for them is swerving through traffic while being chased by police. At least have nice driving.
>>738300579If were talking about freedom and feeling like you're in a real world, Morrowind doesn't do the job and Gothic isn't as impressive because you're stuck in a specific fantasy world so the feeling like you can do anything "IRL" isn't as good. But I agree that they're more deep, just the feeling of natural life isn't as present.
>>738300579Playing GTA4 now sure is a nostalgia trip to the late 00 culture. There is no other game that captures it that accurately.
It's kinda wild to realize we will NEVER get a game with such an insane soundtrack ever again, even GTA VI with its supposed 2B budget wouldn't be able to secure so many great tracks
>>738301181what great tracks can they even secure? snow strippers?
>>738301181who cares when you can just drop in your own music. the user stations for 4 and 5 even have their own djs and imaging and will mix in the funny commercials.
It's kinda crazy how much time and effort I put into a series with such mediocre gameplayI could have played so many better games as a kid
>>738301181GTA 3 to SA were released just at the right time in which games could license stuff at a reasonable price. After 2007~ music labels realized video games make a shitload of money and now will demand stupidly high amounts for any hit.
>>738299836hmmm naise byeike
>>738301474because its the popular shit, its highly unlikely we wouldve discovered some niche hidden gem shit while we were kids.
>>738301141>oralcumshotYeah that fits
>>738301474Ok, so do you think the other open world games at the time better? Do you think the true crime series are the real deal in comparison?
>>738299624Why does it have trans colors on its UI?
>>738301730>its highly unlikely we wouldve discovered some niche hidden gem shit while we were kids.wdym man I played hundreds of demos and even full releases of extremely unknown games mostly from european studios. vidya magazines used to gift you cds of that kind of games
>>738299624Hee hee
>>738301773Yes, that's the meme he posted. Congratulations.
>>738301502and it's not just stupidly high amounts, you can't just pay a lump sum to only release a limited run physical release these days, has to be in perpetuity

>>738301181I liked how earlier GTAs had a bunch of fake music performed by assorted garage bands.
>>738301181GTA 3 had a better soundtrack. Everything that came later was a downgrade.
>>738301474You're estrogen-overloaded, dont bring games into this. Your ideas are delusional right now, take some Zinc to realize that GTAs on ps2 are the peak of vidya.
>>738303061GTASA onwards only have licensed songs in their radio playlist, even GTAVC only had fake songs in one radio station. Too bad they never expanded on the fake songs idea, at least they wouldnt needed to pay royalties down the line.

what's the best way to play vice city these days
YOU EVER HEAR OF BLABBO?
>>738301141I'm playing gta4 right now and it feels uncanny how closely related it feels to modern life topics
>>738303371The movie ends before getting to the weird arc of MJ's life. Apparently there's a sequel coming that will handle that.
>>738299758you can play car surfingswitch to melee, jump onto a random car, stomp on the roof and see how long you can stay on it while it frantically tries to drive away from you
>>738303126BS. VC and SA best.
>>738306934He didn't hurt any children, but I guess people will keep pretending he did because that's what they want to believe.
>>738307089Do you remember how MJ had kids and they were white babies with blonde hair? I'm pretty sure vitiligo doesn't work that way. Just saying.
>>738306769I downloaded the FitGirl original trilogy. Then I updated the silent patch. then i installed sharptrails for the kino colors without the retarded blur when trails is enabled. then i changed the skygfx.ini to use the neo PS2 rendering.

>>738301181I read that Rockstar recently tried to get the rights for this song to appear in GTA 6 for about 7 grand, but they told Rockstar to literally go fuck themselves, so sometimes it is the artists just being retarded and not knowing how much exposure being in the game will give them.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWwtMrDX2o8
>>738307436Exposure means literally fuck all to music artists that can't put on big tours because that's the only way you're making money with music these days that's not licensing
>>738305582https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVj1m8uy5AM
>>7383074867k bucks is still 7k bucks rather than none bucks. unless they'd want them to come over and rerecord it for that instead of just getting their master it still seems dumb to say fuck off.
>>738307654If you ever made anything in your life you'd know the value of pride of knowing someone didn't screw you over and being able to use what you made to make a lot of money while paying you peanuts, and knowing you didn't devalue your profession
>>738307654Being publicly known for rejecting Rockstar's offer has done way more for their public image way more than 7k ever could.
>>738307724did they get a better deal elsewhere that didn't "screw them over"?>>738307795yeah they're talked about on 4channel, big win
>>738307486I think it's retarded but each to their own. The group still tour, imagine what effect it would have on the younger generation if the song was featured in one of the trailers.

>>738299758Just Cause 2 was the peak of open world games. It's all been downhill from there
>>738305582Eminence Front.
>>738299624I literally cannot play the game if Billie Jean is not in it. Shame it got removed from basically every version. I think it's the greatest song ever made.>>738300478You must be a 12 year old if you don't understand how huge MJ was, world wide too. There's never been anyone bigger.
>>738300478When people gave a shit about The Pope, he was bigger than that even.
>>738308681Elvis was bigger, facts.
>>738299758Just Cause and the Saint's Row series are way better open world games than GTA
>>738306769PC with fan fixes or PS2 with save states.I'm playing the latter right now
>>738307436>>738307486>>738307654>>738307932...Exposure does mean fuck all. You know how out of his 100 yearly gorrillion streams on Spotify, Snoop Dog earns like 1000 bucks and some change ? ... No so I just checked, out of his 1billion streams he only earns 45000$.So 7k for a song out of a 9B$ revenue is an insult, the band counter-offered 75k which is more than generous and reasonable, and Rockstar refused because they're evil.Imma tell you, knowing people in the music and sound industry, you don't earn money with exposure but with contracts and royalties, and if your country has good welfare you have a special status as an artist. That's how you can afford surviving and working (because working as an artist means you just have the right to keep working as an artist, know what I mean?). Even with millions of views on Youtube or Spotify streams, in the end, when you're a musician, unless you're fucking Michael Jackson or some shit, you're literally nobody, you're worth nothing.
>>738309887I didn't say they didn't lowball them but cash is cash. Was rockstar greedy? Sure. Should have they taken it anyway? I guess.
>>738299624
>>738299758I remember thinking it's cool as hell, almost dream-like, when I was a kid. I guess it's just something one can only appreciate at a certain age.
>>738299758NPC tranimal problem, filtered
>>738310454It's something you appreciate when you're a little kid, unaware of how video games actually work. Even a cardboard world like GTA's sparked your imagination in all kinds of ways, and you simply didn't realise where the limits were. I remember how I actually believed that if I could get out of bounds, I would find more of the game instead of an endless void.

>>738310323There are several good reasons why you shouldn't sell the rights of one of your most successful works to an incredibly rich company for literal peanuts. It's really not just about money, there's a system of power, a master-slave mechanic going on, and you shouldn't accept that. Same goes in all fields of work, from putting fries in a bag to making music.

Any actual modern music recs for something similiar to Michael Jackson? Looking for something more from his Off the Wall album.
>>738311245TIME IS ON YOUR SIDE
Why did they drop the ball with soundtracks so hard starting with IV? You have Vice City and San Andreas both with legendary soundtracks and tons and tons of recognizable artists and top 100 list songs, then you get IV and V which both have utterly trash soundtracks made up of mostly unknown artists and songs and weak as fuck songs from recognized artists. Now with GTA VI on the horizon, I'm prepared for the game to have the worst soundtrack by far as it tries to play "modern" music which from 2015 and beyond is the most awful shit to ever be created in human history. It's fucked.

>>738306769Vice City: Next Gen edition. It's on the fucking gta4 engine it's amazing.
>>738312060IV objectively has the weakest soundtrack amongst all the 3rd person GTAs.There's barely any songs from vanilla IV that I remember and I'm a retard who's obsessed with these games to the point where I can tell you many of the ads from the radios from memory alone.Vladivostok from tbogt was fun though.
>>738305582https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxgMGk9JPVA
>>738310584I would do that shit in every game. I still do it even though I realize that devs can't think of everything and even if they cared they don't have enough time and money to keep adding more. Hunting for secrets and out of bounds shit was more fun in the past because devs would care a lot more about that. Nowadays if a feature isn't in your face, it means normalfags will not see it and therefore it's wasted dev time so all that's left is finding exploits and the like.

>>738307294BLEEDING ITS HORRORS!
>>738313658My niggaAlso I think old GTA are the best open world games ever. Modern open world is filled with bullshit fetch quest and throw a million of stats and objects that mean shit at the end of the day.GTA is king because going from point A to point B chilling in your car and listenint to the radio is fun.
>>738311841IV has Gruppa Krovi and Pruit Igoe, out of all the things to shit on that game and you pick the soundtrack? Its great
>>738300373I still listen to Fever 105 (https://youtu.be/2KOTYup9mVA) and Flash FM (https://youtu.be/DIcc0wHimtw) from Vice City from time to time. Probably the only two radio stations from any GTA game that I've actually listened to all the way to the end.
KNIFE After DarkRated "R" for RETARDED!
>>738299758Same, even though I loved the games back then and played them 24/7 for years. Playing them today it's just blatantly clear that the music and atmosphere carried them. The gameplay was literally just run, shoot and drive. There's not much to it. Same goes for Red Dead Revolver, which felt like an absolute slog to me on a recent playthrough.
>>738315809>Also I think old GTA are the best open world games ever. Modern open world is filled with bullshit fetch quest and throw a million of stats and objects that mean shit at the end of the day.Even nu-Rockstar games are infinitely better than the rest simply because they actually force you to explore to find stuff. I actually argued with a retard this week who was insisting RDR2 had nothing else to do other than the missions which is complete bullshit, to this day whenever I replay that game I still find new shit I had never seen. The thing is you actually have to explore because the map won't automatically tell you where everything is.

>>738316910that shit made me howl with laughter
YOU'RE OUT OF TOUCHI'M OUT OF TIME
>>738317393The last time I was able to get into GTA 3 series was trying to do as many of the side missions as possible before starting the first main mission. I would always start with the ambulance missions since they're some of the hardest and if you finish it you'll have enough to buy a secondary property and save without having to go to the hotel or safehouse at the start like you're supposed to. Getting to the other islands to do the side missions at the start was pretty fun too. But just playing the game normally isn't as fun anymore.
>>738307436>>738307654It’s all a bit grubby now. They should consider the Phoenix Nights approach and just pay the cheaper rights that allow your on house band cover the song. Or if it were old (read: talented Rockstar) they could just do weird Al style parodies and not pay anything which would absolutely be in the GTA style.

>>738312060I didn't like IV or V's radio stations which is why I'm happy lazlow and leslie are goneSo maybe the radio stations will be kino again in VI with someone new picking them out.

>>738301181Part of the problem with that is that Rockstar doesn't want to repeat tracks from earlier games, so the list of songs they can actually get is slimmer every time. They're filthy rich so I doubt they really care that much about licensing costs, no matter how nuts record companies have become about them over time.
>>738323025>They're filthy rich so I doubt they really care that much about licensing costThat's not true as they've constantly not updated licences and any re-release of previous games would have missing tracks.
>>738323140That's more that they don't give a shit about their old games
>>738301181>>738323025They reuse the same bands though so wang chung was in VC and now it's also in VI but now with a different song of theirs.So they could always get other michael jackson songs etc
>>738323025>Part of the problem with that is that Rockstar doesn't want to repeat tracks from earlier gamesSource?From the top of my head there's Steppin Out from Vice City which is also in V, Tainted love from VCS is also in V.And San Andreas has a bunch of hip-hop songs which were sampled from songs that are in Vice City.Rockstar do seem to try to keep the radios unique but they don't seem to be against using banger songs in more than one GTA game either.But VI will have no MJ songs, the Jackson Estate are lunatics who think the songs are worth more than they actually are. MJ songs are precious don't get me wrong but today's kids don't even know who he was simply because his songs are completely disappearing from mainstream media due to licensing costs.
>>738323456Yeah they like to go back to the same handful of artists for whatever period they're covering. I wouldn't be surprised if they have more MJ music in VI but I don't really know what they'd use. Maybe something from Bad instead of Thriller this time.
>>738323657smooth criminal, beat it there's a ton of big heavy hitters they never used that would be great.I think VC only had billy jean and wanna be something but it's been awhile so might be off there.
>>738323657https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gH5UMjMoTVIYou'll get weird Al and a brosnan-kink style expansion cheatcode as big head mode instead and you'll like it goy!
>>738318947>it's infinitely preferable to what I can get on the radioHuh? Every time I come across a radio feels like half their playlist actually is exactly that old stuff, bc not even zoomers want to listen to other zooms.And it seems even worse with the music backgrounds on TV advertisements, they unabashedly aim for full nostalgia mode probably because GL finding any young person with enough money to buy a new car or stuff like that.

>>738326414oh gross, you got the "re-licenced" version which they had to do for some reasondude just get it off mediafire or somethingit can run on a phone, it's less than a gigabyte honestly, not hard to find
>>738299758For me, it's Gmod. I like being able to freely explore and noclip and build shit and make my own fun
What songs you wish were in VC?
>>738327364have you tried teardown? you might like it
>>738325895Some of the known songs are already good, so wrong.https://youtu.be/VQRLujxTm3c?t=33

>>738327371I always found the abscence of a "alternative heavy/old new wave" station with punk, post-punk and art pop quite a startling one so I made up my own and I put some floridian 80s punk bands in ithttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-m8S67RPePk>PERFECT WEATHER FOR A HOMICIDE
>>738327524some of the songs in gta v were good too. that doesnt mean anything
>>738303061My only wish is for another game set in GTA2's near future dystopia with a whole bunch of tracks made by imaginary future bands.
>>738300037Urban chaos.
>>738299758the problem is that open world games are system based enough. they rely too much on hand crafted content. even modern open world games are mostly just this but with more icons and stuff to do.
>going through all the rampages, get to a katana one>expect it to be super overpowered>need perfect spacing or you'll either hit nothing or punch them for 1 damage instead of using the sword>attack animations are long as fuck, and most of the npcs have gunsPain in the ass, I remember the others being really fun though. If 6 has a fuckload of weapons I hope rampages come back
>>738328913Something I really liked about Vice City (and San Andreas to a lesser degree) is all the arcade elements like rampages (and pills, and health pickups), and all the weapon pickups you can find if you take the time to explore, and mean you can save money you'd otherwise blow at the gun shop. It makes the game feel less structured and more zany, like GTA 1 and 2.Also, when the fuck are they going to go back to London?
>>738329141Never going back to London, it's just going to be the same 3 American cities over and over. Next stop Liberty City in 2050.
>>738329141>GTA VII announced for 2040>”PLEASE BE IN LONDON”
>>738329141>Also, when the fuck are they going to go back to London?problem is Watch Dogs Legion already did a new-future dystopian version of London, and it kinda sucked, which is a shame because "GTA but it's Children of Men" could work, maybeit'd be like a spiritual successor to GTA London AND GTA 2, in a wayit's the only way you're gonna be able to make a game about England with guns in it these days unless they go back to the 60s entirely, which I'd prefer they did in San Fierro if that's where they're going
>>738299624We interrupt your programming with a message from the state department. All bridges and some roads in the Vice City metropolitan area have been close because of a severe weather warning. Meteorologists are tracking Hurricane Hermine which has devastated five Carribean islands and is heading for Vice City. More updates soon.

>>738299624Best GTA no doubt (the aesthetic, the music, the atmosphere, the theme) and the only one with a good story. Rockstar will never ever replicate that and the upcoming woke slop that GTA6 will be with a female protagonist will prove that
>>738312671fat elvis is kino

>>738299624Obligatory when starting a playthrough
>>738330623Do you think Ray Liotta was aware that Tommy Vercetti was one of his most popular roles?
>>738330623trvke/thread
>>738330693lmfao I was like "I bet that's New Pollution" and it wasyou're rightI feel like some of his newer stuff would fit on GTA V or VI quite nicelyI liked "Uneventful Days"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AF_CJhpTzQgood point though
>>738330872No probably didn't even want to be in it lol but they showered him with money. Rockstar was paying a lot of money for actually good voice lines at that time (I am sure they hated it) and they changed their mind with San Andreas and hired way lower quality voice actors and random niggers.
>>738330623I still think the map is very beach weighted, the story drags, and a lot of missions aren’t that fun. Don’t get me wrong, I do love it, but I think SA perfected the whole formula. That said, my favourite GTA is 1 and I’m not even memeing. Aside from eating hotdogs and hiring taxis I think they’re all just the first one essentially rehashed with a new, impressive, lick of paint.
>>738299836what precisely makes that old modeling aesthetic mog the fuck out of 10000000 tri modern slop graphics anyway?
>>738319868Incredible.
>>738331330Things like "professional artsts" and "an art style." which are both impossible in today's unreal engine factory production line industry.
>>738309887I bet you were one of those people who were against napster back in the day lmao
>>738331439Napster wasn't pretending to support artists while robbing them blind. In fact, it being an "illegitimate" service further divorces the comparison; back in the Napster days, the primary means by which people listened to music was still buying CDs.
>>738300478Are you fucking kidding me? MJ at his peak was so popular he was second knly to JesusEven now his songs are still played, DESPITE THE PEDO SHIT
>>738300478>was MJ really popular enough to deserve being put into such a prestigious video game series like GTA?Genuinely, anyone who has to ask this question wasn't alive to see it.

>>738300208Lego Island
>>738331130GTA 4 and 5 hardly uses any celebrity VAs and they mostly have good voice acting
>>738334124you don't know Steve Ogg?
>>738334213I don't think he was well known before the game
>>738300037Mario Odyssey. >Bing bing wahoo BITCH
>>738300135It is more fun when you're 13 years old thoughever. Especially when you have to share the console with friends/siblings.
>>738317728that's one of the parts I hate about GTA3, you have to follow a very specific mission order for not only the main story missions but also vehicle submissions otherwise you're either locked out of them(like joey or Kenji) or are effectively unplayable(doing taxi or paramedic sucks when half the gangs in the city want your head on a silver plate
>>738305582OP already posted it. I can't get out of the car while it is playing.
>>738307087no, 3 has the best OST.

>>738299624>faggiothis would be inconceivable in a game released in 2026
>>738300501I liked Vice City Public Radio
>>738336746My fondest memory of this game is my mom coming into my room while I was playing it, listening to VCPR for a bit, and then saying, "Those people are insane!"
>>738301141It came out just a few years before SJWs took over and ruined our culture.
>>738335639https://youtu.be/EI3tV6EhUjU?t=1290sI'M NEVA GONNA STOPI'M NEVA GONNA QUITNEVA GONNA STOPI'M NEVA GONNA QUIT
>>738299624I must have spent hours as a kid killing Haitian gangs and baiting the Cubans and Haitians into huge shoot outs
>>738309327i replayed SR2 with the PC patch recently and i realized that a lot of the missions in that are literally just turret sections
>>738312250It's weird how they frame all these cultural changes as improvements, when they clearly are the exact opposite.
>>738337138chronologically less time passed between GTA3 and GTA4 than GTA 5 and 6it weirds me out how they're the same decadeby the time Niko arrives in Liberty City, Claude's rampage through the underworld technically only happened about 6 or 7 years agoalbeit they are different "universes" outside of easter eggs but stillit's weird the game has more in common with 3 than it's gonna have with VI
>>738336746Ditto, some of the best talk in series history.>>738336916She should listen to the mom's rant on that station. "Nobody knows how to kill anymore!"
>>738337827It makes sense because 3 and 4 take place in the same City. I expect 6 will have Vice City references, maybe even Tommy Vercetti as a mission giver. (Hopefully he won't get the Johnny Klebitz treatment.)
>>738328280uhh you were acting like nothing would be goodEvery single game has a mix of bad songs and good songs, it really depends on your personal taste overall.
>>738337827IIRC the 3d games (3, VC, SA) and the HD games (4 & 5) are different universes.
>>738299624>kills 1 random rodent>+15000 USD
>>738338271I'm sure they'll keep it real classy and do something like an abandoned mansion in the shape of the vercetti/scarface mansion with some grafitti in it, like one of the abandoned houses on prawn islandwhat I mean is it's gonna feel realer and less satiricalboth 4 and 3 had that "vaguely edgy shock humour" thing that was popular in the 2000s with the early internet so despite being two different universes, the jokes feel the same toowow it's been a while
>>738338385yeah that I do keep in mindstill kind of a funny thing to think about thoughwhen 4 happened, 3 really wasn't that long ago
>>738299624>I wear my sunglasses at night>so I can't>so I can't see*crashes car*
>>738338157>>738336746>>738336916I was listening to some Nick Mullen Cumtown bits the other day, and my mind pictured this playing over the radio in a GTA game and it sounded perfect.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipqt4cUTA1oIf modern Rockstar were still cool, they would hire Nick to write and perform them bits like this.
AHHHI JUST DIED IN YOUR ARMS TONIGHTIT MUST HAVE BEEN SOMETHING YOU SAID
>>738299624this game was wholesale ripped off from brian de palma and he never gets the credit he deserves
>>738313729Peak comfy kino
>>738338636that's just how much money we were all making in the late 90s before the towers came downyou really good just grab a taxi and make tens of thousands of dollars in one daythen we had this whole recession thing, you knowlife got more expensive
>>738340068The GTA VI radio bits will be Not!Charlie Kirk and Not!Ben Shapiro talking about how women who have abortions are going to hell.
>>738308296Now that world really is empty. Flight is the only viable form of transportation and it is still too slow. I never played the campaign. I just installed mods and played multiplayer.
>>738341027and if they followed it up with notBen talking about getting fucked in the ass by William Daniels as a repressed traumatic memory like some sort of tick, it'd be great. But they won't.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UURf_6KI_Rk
>>738338784Edgy shock humor has always been GTA's thing. If they abandon it completely, we know that it's a different game, even if it's a good game.
>>738340928You can't make money as a yellow or livery cabbie any more outside of Manhattan, everyone uses Uber or Lyft.You can still get them in Manhattan tho, I went to hail a cab last week and had one in 30 seconds.
>>738343681I still see yellow cabs around my city (Vancouver) so they must be hanging on somehow.
>>738343839Good to know. Vancouver is (or used to be) a happening place.
>>738343681>taking taxi jobs via a Not-Uber or Not-Lyft app and only being paid chump change for each job because it's 2023, can't even afford a Vrock t-shirt from the Vrock Cafe Hotel>meanwhile Claude works in a taxi for one day, crushes it, has literally hundreds of thousands in cash by the end of the day, and only pistol ammo to buy with itit was a different era
>>738299624i bought the box set ost as a 12 year old because it was at a game trader for like $30 and shit was so cash>>738305582beaner station had some jams https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYS9OTNrd-4
>>738343576they will replace it with something that people below age 30 can interpret as edgy shock humor but it will be vague which group the are talking about so it doesn't offend anyone, group a will think it is about group b and the other way around.sounds impossible? they will have 1000 writers go over every word of every line of dialogue so nothing is overlooked anywhere. gta6 will last for 20 years after all and bring a trillion USD in profit.
>>738345360She's well off if she can afford mcdicks in the first place
>>738332895I swear, it's like the jets were hardcoded to always be playing either that or Hold the Line.
I’m on a cell phone it’s real BIG, like the 80’s
>>738345594the most common radio station changes depending on what city you're in which is such a nice touch
>>738345729oh damn so it's not just like>you get in a plane and freebird playsit's>you get in a plane in las venturas and freebird playsthat makes sense, that always happened to me way more in the desert
>>738345949yeah, and in the countryside you're likely to get K-ROSE a lot. SA had the most complex radio system in the series up to that point, with it being semi-random and reacting to the plot.
>>738345360>they will have 1000 writers go over every word of every line of dialogue so nothing is overlooked anywhere.No wonder the game is taking so long to release.>gta6 will last for 20 years after all and bring a trillion USD in profit.I fear they'll focus on the multiplayer to the detriment of the single-player campaign.
>>738300478he basically ruled the world.
>>738324575If I had a digital radio it would be alright but I'm limited to FM frequencies and none of the ones in my area are much good
>>738346274half of the singleplayer (or all of it) will require you to be online in multiplayer.they will have some kind of always-online hub world where you start the single player missions from the always-online world. you either phase into single player missions or it will be some kind of mixture with some multiplayer while you drive between locations for example.gta6 is being delayed due to elon buying twitter, it made them realize they had to tone down the woke content a bit to maximize profits
>>738300478People in Bum-Fuck-Nowhere, Africa were fans of his BEFORE the internet>>738308681Just downgrade it. It's worth the hassle imo
>>738346274I think if the like "club life/celebrity" part of the game is about black culture in the south, it could be vaguely "atlanta" which can be a very hilarious show about a rapper "trying to make it" in the south, but it also takes the surrealism and the humour deadly seriously instead of with explicit intent to shockI am really fucking curious how that part of the game is gonna play out because it could be like the absolute worst part to have to deal with this club owner and these two shitty up-and-coming hip-hop starletts if it's bad writing, you know?
>>738346679>made up schizo opinionand discarded
>>738347249the elon thing triggered you? it's true mate, maybe you're too young to remember how things used to be. people actually thought that the mainstream opinion was that men could be women.
>>738346679the gameplay leak footage came out in the same year and nothing changed, lmao.
>MISTER CAN YOU TELL ME WHERE MY LOVE HAS GONE>HE'S A JAPANESE BOY
>>738348886it's been 3.5 years since the first gta6 trailer at the end of 2023. elon got control approx a year earlier, but it took a long while before the veil was lifted from people's eyes. domain name didn't change from twitter.com to x.com until summer 2024.rockstar didn't realize "oh shit, people aren't as gay as we thought" until after the first trailer came out. the first announced delay of gta6 happened first quarter 2024. they've been toning down a lot of woke content. i bet they even had a cutscene talking about how you should use latinx instead of latina, all of that needed to be scrapped and remade completely (including new recorded dialogue)
>>738334872Yeah, it's not even possible to do at least half of the side missions at the start, which partly defeats the purpose of making a perfect starter save like that. Still a pretty fun challenge to do what you can from the earliest possible point though.
>>738349686the leaked footage is from 2022, little lad.
>>738302429loved the maurice chavez bits but the entire station is great
>>738321056which is funny, because the cops take his cash in the intro
>>738349686the games have always been woke, you fucking faggot loser
>>738353453so? that's neither here nor there.>>738353672not to this degree, as is evident by the delays
>>738300478dude was the most famous artist in the whole planet during his entire career

>>738300478So legendary I'm genuinely surprise Nasu hasn't made a servant for him.
>>738300208Morrowind. Before Cyberpunk, GTA was the closest one could get to having an open world RPG experience in a modern setting, and SA was the closest to realizing that idea's potential, though IV isn't a bad compromise. Saints Row had potential but kneecapped itself instead of iterating on the formula.
