gta3 was just revolutionary for it's time with it's open world freedom and it was in 3d. then it snowballed it from there. also press gave the series lots of publicity over the years. mostly bad press but like they say, there's no bad press. (that was before internet was that popular, so nowadays i guess you could potentially get bad press but usually it is still free advertisement)

Between 1 and SA, it prospered due to it's genre being unique and fun with good humour, albeit technically sub-par. With IV, it got recognition for being technically impressive, if it arguabley lacked the novelty gameplay anymore though the humour was still going strong.

With V, it was just hype. While not bad, V really wasn't good in any capacity. It was a odd middle-ground between the 3D era and IV, lacking the positives of either. Also the humour was plebbit-tier in this one.

'VI' is just purely a brand. It's made by a different team, whom are arguabley incompentent DEIs. And it pretty much shits on all the things that made GTA funny. It's no different to say a 343 Halo, a bastardised insult to it's fanbase. Though GTA has a much bigger base, so that means more retarded normalfags who will buy it.
