My first impression....this is EXTREMELY "Florida Man/Woman" accurate as someone who lives here in Florida. Also set in current time and not the 80's

Damn, I wish it was set in another time period.

I’m lukewarm on this given the state of AAA games these days, plus the fact that Rockstar North has lost key members of the original GTA creative team, meaning it won’t have the biting satire poking big holes in modern day America which peaked with GTA IV in my opinion.

It’ll be a by-the-numbers GTA title, just lacking the humour and charm that GTA has had in the past, and built by minimum wage developers under fierce crunch working conditions.

But I’m sure that when it releases in two years time I’ll have turned around on this and will want a piece of the action.

Agreed, I have a lot of questions and I doubt it can live up to GTA V as far as major upgrade from GTA IV (Though IV has a lot of fans also)

I wasn't a fan of V. The "stop what you're doing and babysit your gang" mechanism was really annoying and I stopped playing pretty early.

I thought that mechanic was way worse in San Andreas

Actually you're right, that's what I'm thinking of. Maybe I REALLY stopped, I'm not sure I've ever played 4 or 5. :lol:

Hah, yeah, I was going to say, I never made it through 4 because of that mechanic. Felt like GTA with a tamagotchi element.

GTA 5 is really good, fixes so many issues with previous games

I own it on one or two platforms but I'm not sure I've ever actually loaded it.

I bought III and Vice City for like $10 each on my PS4 and have enjoyed playing through those again.

I sit here reading this thinking it’s odd that some people haven’t played the GTA games enough to remember which one had what mechanic. They were the games of the 2000s man!

But then I remember that I’ve never played through any Dark Souls or Elden Ring. Those were the games of the 2010s.

That looks so Florida, I almost miss it. :lol:

Looks like it'll need a $4000 RTX 6090 to run too...

I never played GTA V. But I did play the rest including the top down version, what was that 2? Loved all of them.

Elden Ring is a 2020s game. For the 2010s, I'd probably go with Skyrim or The Witcher 3 or Read Dead or Minecraft or Destiny ;)

I've only played the online part of GTA V. That's what I'm looking forward to in 6.

I used to play GTA V (offline only) on our Xbox360 because you guys used to talk about it and it sounded awesome. And it was.

Then I downloaded GTA V for PC when Epic made it free back in the summer of 2020 when the pandemic was in full swing.

I was proud that I never cheated, unlike seemingly everyone else in Online for PC. Then, someone unknown to me changed my level from an honestly-earned 400-something to 6666. I rage quit over that back in January of this year and haven't played since. I'm not a cheater but now I would look like one if I still played.

The best part, for me, was visiting LA in person again after I had been playing for a while. My son and I rented bicycles and rode around the Santa Monica Del Perro pier and Venice Beach and it was just about the coolest thing ever. Thankfully, there were fewer jets and helicopters and submarines and snipers wreaking havoc on the civilian beachgoers in real life than there were in the game.

I liked the game very much, but enough is enough.

If any of you cheaters know how to change my level back, drop me a line. ;)

They really did a remarkable job of recreating LA. I was mostly sad that my work building wasn't present in the game, other buildings I could see from there were.

Yes, visiting L.A. for real after playing a lot of GTA V was....strange, lol. They recreated it so well I saw so many buildings and locations that are so similar but yeah, without the GTA stuff going on
