There's probably a thread about it somewhere, but I can't find it so I'm starting a new one.

Hell... it's about time for a new GTA game.

Will you be playing?

No, I've been done with this series since Vice City. Also isn't it only Consoles on release? I'm not supporting that

Why may I ask did you stop at Vice City?

Those graphics are ridiculous in certain scenes.

Well, since Doom: The Dark Ages likely has me buying a shiny new console, I might as well throw this game in the queue, as well.

Looks sick AF.

Just feels like the same game over and over, Like a Madden or Call of Duty to me. I also think the controls are super clunky.

I actually thought Watch Dogs was a much better series, had stealth and the missions were way more fun. WD2 and 3 Specifically as I think WD 1 was too close to a GTA clone. Also the Controls were very crisp, RIP to a great series and what Ubisoft could have been.

Yeah that trailer dropped over a year ago, in 2023. GTA 5 was originally released almost 12 years ago, in 2013 on the ancient PS3/XBOX. GTA6 “supposed” to come out in 2025 but I will believe it when I see it. I played GTA5 almost exclusively for many years but seems like a lifetime ago since I gave up on it. It was the greatest game of all time but devolved into stupid shit where you had to join a “company” to earn money and run businesses and stupid shit like that to do missions. I do “business” for a living IRW, I just want to blow shit up and drive a fast car in GTA. I don’t need to own a ****ing bar. And jet bikes with missiles that little douchebags could buy with mom’s credit card. Got old…. Like around 2017 or so.

That said, I am over 50 and I will be playing this extensively. Let’s get on with it Rockstar.

Will definitely be playing.

How is the soundtrack. I listen to the rap station from GTA in my car.

I am not a gamer but Tom Petty will always get my attention. I do suspect the rest to be rap crap.

Can’t wait for this. I’m not a huge gamer in terms of number of games played, but I do log some hours on a handful of games. I’ve been playing NCAA football since it came out. I typically have an off season game I’ll play like The Show. I’ll be ready to switch it up when this comes out.

You'll have no argument from me on the clunky "bathtub on wheels" on foot controls, but damn. You're doing yourself a disservice to not play GTA5 at all.

That said, I'll definitely get GTA 6. A living breathing modern day Vice City?

Take my money.

Hmmmmm. ….a little disappointed there.

Really? It looks amazing.

It does look amazing. The map looks to be HUGE.

I don't know why, but I'm bracing myself for a level of disappointment. There's so much hype around this, it's going to be difficult to live up to.

surprised nobody mentioned the game is pushed back to May 2026

LMAO and 2027 on PC with a steep price increase, more reasons to pass for me.

ya 2027 at best for PC. I'm not that hyped for this tbh and I've played every single GTA there ever has been, starting with the top down view around the year 2000.

It looks good but from what some of the developers have said it worries me a little that it won't have that same charm about it that they always had.

The first 2 top down GTA's were great, I still miss them Hackensack n all. :D

One concern for me is it looks like it's taking itself more seriously than past versions. But whatever. Rockstar has earned my confidence.

Imagine having never played San Andreas. I can't imagine Vice City being the peak of my GTA playing experience lmao.

By the time you do right by yourself, and play an original copy of GTA San Andreas, and then play through GTA 5, then the release of 6 won't be that far off.

You can pretend 4 doesn't exist. Forget that boring piece of shit.

4 tried going that route as well, it's by far my least favorite in the franchise.

Agreed. That was my thought, that I hope they don't go the IV route. Surely they learned their lesson. Especially with the run away success of five.

Same old boring crap, not my style of game.

These are essentially action movies in gameplay form. I guess I'm struggling with what you'd find boring. Like who doesn't like car chases, explosions, and a metric shitton of automatic weapons fire?

I'm really hyped. That trailer is awesome.

There's a lot of things 4 did better than 5. Though I also personally enjoyed 5 more.

Last two Rockstar games I’ve played were GTA V (which I actually replayed, which is super rare for me these days) and Red Dead Redemption 2. Those are two of the best games I ever played.

GTA VI may just be a day one purchase, even if it’s $80. GTA V price held strong for like half a decade after release.

It was the Skyrim of GTA, constantly re released over 3 console generations.

Around this time next year can't wait.
