Grand Theft Auto 6 Temp

To the surprise of no one, Grand Theft Auto 6 will skip PC at launch

Take-Two has just announced Grand Theft Auto 6 for Playstation 5 and Xbox Series X. Yeap, to the surprise of no one, GTA 6 will skip the PC at launch, and will release exclusively on consoles in 2025.

Now let’s be honest here, the writing was on the wall. I mean, I’ve hinted at this in my previous article. Ironically, the alpha build of GTA6 that was leaked in 2022 was for PC. So, Take-Two and Rockstar are intentionally delaying the game on PC.

Take-Two and Rockstar have not clarified why they have given PC gamers the middle finger. GTA 6 is a huge game, so it doesn’t make sense to skip the PC, right? Well, there is a catch here so keep reading.

You see, Rockstar has been constantly skipping the PC platform. And, like it or not, this strategy has paid off. Red Dead Redemption 2 and Grand Theft Auto 5 were huge successes on PC. And yes, both of them skipped the PC at launch. So, why change something that works?

From a business perspective, it makes total sense to skip PC. Release the game on consoles, make a lot of money, and then release it on PC so that you can make even more profits. By doing that, some may even double-dip.

And, I’m going to be honest with you. PC gamers DESERVE to be treated like second-class citizens. If you didn’t like this attitude, you wouldn’t have made RDR2 and GTA5 huge commercial successes on PC. If you wanted to be treated as first-class citizens, you would have sent the appropriate message by not buying Rockstar’s games. But no, you had to buy those games. So, time to reap what you sow. Oh, and I can guarantee you. The moment the PC pre-orders go live, A LOT of PC gamers will pre-order it. And that says a lot.

So, there you have it. No GTA 6 for us PC gamers. But hey, don’t worry. You’ll get it in 2026 or 2027. You’ll still suck on Rockstar’s finger. And you will all like it. And that’s why Rockstar will keep treating you the way it does.

How did Vaas put it? “Insanity is doing the exact… same fucking thing… over and over again expecting… shit to change“. So, yeah. Keep buying those PC games. I’m sure things will change in RDR5 or GTA10… NOOOOOOOOOOOOT.

      1. I enjoy the odiocity of all of you for a game you dont want to play from a company you all hate. For an article that judges everyone for buying a great game, and the dsogaming having numerous articles about it, mods reported etc. John couldn’t right a worst article in his life. And he wrote a lot of sh*t.

  1. So 2026-2027
    Give me time to buy a new pc, besides im too busy with my second newborn child so i dont really have time now 😀

    1. What if its 2028? 2029? You never know how long it will take. If it takes 5 years? Will people still insta buy it? I know i wont care. Youtube will be full of videos by the time this game comes out. By the time the game comes out, it will be OLD. I’ll know all the story and all the details. This kills the fun for me.

      1. They know this and many will not be able to wait. I know people that preorder collector’s editions and cannot pick them up and cannot wait until the next day to play it, so they decide to buy the digital deluxe edition anyway.

  2. Well said John. Once again you are telling the honest truth about the state of PC gaming today and really the pitiful general state of gaming overall. Main stream media won’t say these things because they are afraid to lose readers and therefore clicks.

    A lot of PC gamers that also have a console will double dip on this game just like before. Hell, some will even buy a new console just to be able to play GTA VI when it releases. Rockstar is arrogant towards PC gamers but they are very competent businessmen.

    1. Not everyone that has a PC has a console too. All my friends dont, i also dont. I did get to play console games, from emulators lol. I know for a fact, nobody that i know will ever get a console, especially myself. The way Rockstar acts is horrible to every single PC only gamer. John is 100 % right.

      1. good thing you and your two friends are such a large representation and you definitely reflect entire PC base…

        1. Just to add : There are 1.1 billion PC gamers vs 611 million console gamers.
          Technically speaking the PC is worth far more than any single console.

          Mind you it’s not like releasing on PC and console at the same time is
          something rare. The vast majority of AAA games are able to. This is
          just an example of Rockstar being Rockstar and not anything else. They ignore the PC cus they are a trashy company.

          As for me and most PC gamers that only have and need a PC? We will probably forget about the game and pick it up for $10
          like we did with GTA V. Hek, many even got it for free. I know i wont wait for GTA 6 until 2028-9 lol. Its only a game, i dont have years to wait for 1 game lolol. If the devs are going to treat my platform as
          low priority I’m going to do the same to their game. I might buy their game in 2033 or wait till its free on epic game store again. If they dont want 70 buckz, they will get 0 or 10.

        2. Cus you and ur friends and the people u say do? PC users have both huh? Sure. Im sure every single PC gamer has a console too lol, right?

          P.s. Ever been the PS5 forums or fan sites? There are a million comments about how PC gaming sucks, how PS5 games should NEVER go to PC (but they do haha) There are a ton of people that use PC for their primary platform. Its what i have seen online too. Same for console users. Rockstar is ignoring PC gamers by delaying it with years. Do you think im the only one without a console? Honestly? Do you think every PS5 user has a PC too?

      2. I can only speak for what I have heard from my friends, but they all said. “Well, I guess we will have to buy a PS 5 in 2025.”

        1. Games are system sellers, sure. I get that but at the same time, there are plenty of console gamers that refuse to buy a PC. The things they write lol, go check the PS5 forums. I also refuse to buy a console for 1 game, or even for 3 games. Even less a Playstation. Their games come to the PC now.

          1. I quit buying Sony products when they started installing Root Kits on my PC for simply playing a Sony music CD. A whole lot of people got hacked because of Sony. Hackers would scan PCs on the Internet looking for PCs with the Sony Root Kit installed and then used the Root Kit as an attack vector. Last Sony product I had was a Trinitron CRT monitor and I got that used. (and was my last CRT monitor)

      3. Sounds like you and your friends aren’t hyperconsooomers. But hyperconsumers are out there and they do have a PC and at least one current gen console and they will absolutely buy big budget slop twice to play it as early as possible. They are why Rockstar is doing this. It works because these “people” exist.

        1. True, i know there are and its kind of sad. Thats why this probably happens, this and their simple hate for the PC. They had comments about our platform, negative comments. I wont forget what they said.

      4. Consoles are for littlre kids whose parents didnt get them a pc yet! i got my first pc in 1996 when i was9 years old. at that time most peopel didnt have internet and pcs yet. since then i became pc gamer. we pc games dont care about consoles. Evryone has pc but not console except those kids.

          1. in 94 they gave me a Sega game gear as birthday present. iTh ad sonic 1 on it. so that how i started playing video games nd how sonic became my favorite platform series.

          2. I got my first sega with that first sonic game as well, it was amazing back then. A lot more fun than PC gaming, at least pre 1997 PC gaming. Once i got into Age of Empires 2, Starcraft, Quake 2-3, Red Alert1-2, C&C, Diablo 1-2 and alot more other PC games… i was a PC gamer for life! Its also pretty fun to build a PC. Cheaper than having to buy a prebuild one too, as a bonus lol. Anyways, how old are you?

          3. and since then i started using pc, playing ames then one year later i started writing in word, then in 2000 i started using the internet…. I told you iam 36. i was just 9 when i got my first pc. at that time most people still dint have pc and internet didnt exist. And you? how old are you? what is your name on Steam? Talking about sonic. Do you read the monthly IDW sonic comics? And have you played sonic super stars that released on october on steam/pc and have you seen the new netflix series sonic prime?

        1. By 1996 I was on my 10th or so computer ….. My first I built from a partial kit (Altair 8800) when I was 17 in 1976. TRS-80 ,Apple 2e Commodore C=64, C=128, Timex-Sinclair, Amiga 500 and 2000 and several IBM compatibles 386 DX 486 DX-100 and by 1996 a Pentium. Got my first access to the internet in 1991 my first year of college for electronics engineering when the World Wide Web consisted of a couple of sites at CERN in Europe with the rest of the Internet comprised of Email, USENET and Gopher Servers.

          My parents didn’t buy any of them for me although my Dad did buy an Atari 2600 and all 10 games it had when it first came out but I was already out of the house and on my own by then.

          1. so now you are 63 years old?! did computers exist in 1976?! and internet in 1991?!

      1. And yet here you are. Reading articles. Reading comments. Spending time making comments yourself. Be thankful you can make a comment like you made here without consequences. My last comment on PCGamer years ago was that the site had really gone downhill. I was promptly shadow banned.

        1. I’m not there anymore I’m done with the site. I used to keep it on a tab forever open but not anymore. Hope John P learns his lesson. And thankful I can comment without consequences? This is the internet you stupid f*k.

    2. only little kids under 10 years old play on consoles. We pc gamers play only on pc and we donthave consoles.

        1. imean we all adults that are pc gamers.IhaveRX6700XT and iplay all games maxed 1440p 60 fps with much better graphics than ps5

  3. I totally agree with you. People already keep saying the exact same thing on Reddit and other places… which thing?

    The thing – Day 1 purchase in 2029, even if they treat us badly, we will buy the game in a heartbeat… even if the game cost 80, we will still buy the livin sht out of it!

    I get it tho.. their games are pretty good, amazing at times even. I get why people want to buy them. Im scared about Max Payne 4 & Red Dead 3.. if these ever becomes a thing. It would probably come out later too. Thank god Red Dead 1 had a Switch port.

        1. I didn’t feel the pull for V, a friend gifted it to me, i forced myself to play it and didn’t go past 3 or 4 hours… Characters and their cheap TV-like dramas have the charisma of a brick, they suck badly. This looks even worse, so no. Also tried the multiplayer and it was a disaster, automatically changing you between servers and breaking up my party with my friend. So, no.

          1. I’ve been playing GTA since London, and i loved it. Always loved the freedom it offers. Then came the copy like sandbox games, but no one quite did it as well as the lawyer’s sons (Sam & Dan Houser). The attention to detail like the engine coolling down and so on always gave it a oomph that others like ubiscks never quite cared about. What does that tell you? The industry doesn’t care about the consumer and it’s always sub par. The Housers went the extra mile with each and every instalment. To me that looks like an overachiever and I really dig overachievers.

            So yeah you can bash on it all you want and downvote the sht out of it but you have nothing to back it up. Just because u forced yourself to play it and you coulndnt play with your friend online that doesnt make it a bad game, not even by a mile. So yeah go ahead and do your thing, i know you’re gonna play this one as well, stop capping.

    1. I’m sorry, are you new to the GTA series? No one is a “good guy” in these, just differing shades of either opportunistic or psychotic.

  4. Very well said in pointing out the state of PC gaming and all the no-principles gamers supporting these sh*tty companies. And like you said, John, from a business perspective, these companies are doing what makes sense to their profits. Too many people overlook the fact that this wouldn’t be possible if all the suckers weren’t buying their games and supporting the business practices – same as for MTX. Sadly, so many idiots are supporting that, it would NOT make sense for the companies to change tactics.

    I’ve never given Rockstar a single cent, and I sure don’t intend to!

        1. yeah there are 3 on a sea of browns and blacks, not how real florida is or desantis would never get elected.

      1. Replaced by peaceful migrants, I guess. Like the one in Ireland that stabbed the five year old Irish girl.

      2. When Billy from the defunct OAG made a list of “traitors of America” corporations i politely explained to him that those corporations represent america. current GTA is current America culture, nothing more, nothing less.

  5. agree with this…..rockstar take two treats pc gamers as third class people citizen & people still buying bruh…..& all those people saying wow wow graphics, they still don’t understand its coming for current consoles, it will be downgraded around 30% to run better for consoles, with less shaders, effects, post processing, density, overhaul etc etc…….modern gaming noobs kids & adult people doesn’t know all these things, we have been gaming from 2005 so we know all this…how a company lies you…its all marketing look, nothing else…………wait next year for the 2nd trailer then you will see close to final graphics & look

    1. There’s a chance this won’t support the Vulkan API, even though it clearly performs better than DX12 in RDR2.

      The first hint was the leaked alpha build, which clearly showed that it was running with DX12 on PC.

      The second reason being that Vulkan was a late addition to RDR2, which originally only featured the DX12 renderer of the Xbox version on PC.

      Only after Google paid a huge amount of money to Rockstar/2K for a port of RDR2 to their failed Stadia cloud gaming service the Vulkan API was added to the game out of necessity, because it had to run natively on Linux.

      With Stadia gone for good, there is no more incentive left to maintain the Vulkan API inside RAGE (Rockstar Advanced Game Engine), even though it performs better than DX12, so expect Rockstar to just bring the renderer of the Xbox version on PC and call it a day…

  6. who cares last few games have been trash anyway.

    Not sure why that cowboy one is so praised either as its basically a reskin of the same game.

  7. “If you didn’t like this attitude, you wouldn’t have made RDR2 and GTA5 huge commercial successes on PC. If you wanted to be treated as first-class citizens, you would have sent the appropriate message by not buying Rockstar’s games. But no, you had to buy those games. So, time to reap what you sow.”

    Hear, hear Mr. Papadopoulos.
    This doesn’t just apply to Rockstars attitude towards PC gamers. But the industry as a whole. Gamers (mainstream or not) regularly decide to fund these sh*tty companies and then wonder why the AAA industry is as bad as it has gotten.

  9. The only reason they’re doing this is to make PC gamers buy the game twice and a lot of them will do that unfortunately. As for the trailer, it did the job although I find both GTA IV and V’s teaser trailers more effective. They had some narration going on to briefly explain the main character’s purpose in the world whilst showing off numerous landscapes from industrial zones to religious or other historical architectures.

    Here we got less of that and a whole lot of degeneracy. Most of the shots focused on scantily clad women with inflated egos acting a fool, drunk and drugged up people partying or watering the plants whilst wearing nothing but speedos, crime-ridden ghettos and suburbs, etc. Not sure if I noticed any pleasant areas comprising of normal functioning people. I don’t know, I just think it lacks all the nuances which the previous games had in their teasers. Especially when comparing it to GTA IV. This series, like Western civilisation as whole, is regressing.

    On a positive note, it does look pretty and I’m curious to see how next-gen this game will look and feel. I just know I’m going to have a lot issues with this title given all the social norms being forced on us today.

      1. Conservatives are mixed about that guy. A lot of people think he’s just another puppet. Personally I think the US is beyond saving at this point and if there is a chance of it returning back to its former self prior to how they were before the rise of social media then it may take them many decades to undo all the damage. But I’ve given up on them.

        The future of the AAA industry will be in the hands of non-Western countries that are booming like China and potentially all those who join BRICS+ but that’s like in the distant future if all things go as intended for them.

        1. dude BRICS is for 3rd word poor tyranical communist shitholes, they will never make anything good. China is only one that makes games but they joined BRICS to milk russia and rest of commie morons.

          1. One thing you should note is that although China is being ran by a communist regime, their country has elements of capitalism that appears to be flourishing. Also, if it weren’t for the CCP they wouldn’t have taken 770 million people out of poverty within the last four decades. That there is a testament of how much their leadership cares for their people despite having that concerning power over them. Something like that is unheard of in any Western country or any country for that matter.

            While China is eliminating poverty, the West is eliminating the middle class, widening the gap between the rich and poor. So keep telling me how communism is inherently a bad thing when there’s a country that’s almost entirely governed by it and is able to prosper without having to start a single war to do so unlike the US. I’ve seen plenty of unbiased videos showing the beauty of the country and it’s nothing like how the West portrays it.

            Russia has produced a number of reputable products over the last couple of decades in various industries like gaming, movies and comics. If you don’t research these things you won’t know about it. But in the gaming industry they’ve made titles like Blades of Time, Birds of Prey, Birds of Steel, Apache: Air Assault, Escape from Tarkov and Atomic Heart. That’s not including their F2P games like War Thunder and Crossout which are solid IPs but with the usual problems that most F2P games have.

            Communism has a bad track record for sure yet the one country that is ruled and thriving from it seems to be doing pretty okay when comparing to all the capitalistic ones. Africa is all capitalistic and clearly it’s doing nothing for them so that economic structure doesn’t guarantee success for everyone.

        2. Sony just made a deal with a lot of Korean developers to partner on a lot of upcoming games. Like Stellar Blade.

          1. Meanwhile NetEase has partnered with a handful of great Japanese talents like Suda51 and Toshihiro Nagoshi (creator of Yakuza) and they’ve expressed numerous times about how NetEase has given them plenty of freedom to be as creative as they can be without having to be constrained with time like before.

            So it’ll be interesting to see end result in all of these projects and how they compare to the other Asian products which are aided by the West.

          1. Well that’s you’re opinion. A lot of the world thinks the US is a joke and that their economic dominance is coming to an end.

          2. Well given how they’re throwing so much money around to fund wars and other political affairs in far away regions and how the gap between the poor and rich is widening and how there’s a lot of concern that we may be going into a recession – that tells me that we’re likely spending more than we’re producing. I haven’t looked at the stats so I can’t say with certainty.

            And let’s not forget how how China is rapidly growing on the GDP. They surpassed Japan in 2011 and will undoubtedly surpass the US in the distant future if things continue to go the way they do. Cryptocurrency is also posing a major threat towards the US dollar. Hence why their leadership is investing a lot into this new endeavour to ensure that they have dominance in this new wave of economy.

          3. “Funding wars” secures US interests until it doesn’t. It’s been a net positive for the American economy throughout history. This can change. (X1)
            The gap between rich and poor is measured by the Gini index. Not only it’s meaningless, but it also doesn’t prove your claim. (X2)
            Recession isn’t bad, it’s not indicative of the weakness or strength of an economy, it can never be traced to a single cause, and it’s usually unpredictable, but an inverted yield curve is usually a good indicator. (X3)
            Growth of GDP alone doesn’t mean anything, China has a lot of growing domestic issues and their economy is largely dependent on the US market. (X4)
            “Cryptocurrency is also posing a major threat towards the US dollar.” (X5)
            X1: There are reliable third-party papers that dive into this topic, If you bothered to research anything, you’d be arguing numbers here instead of parroting Youtube comments made by rytards.
            X2: Second red flag that you’re economically illiterate
            X3: Your absurd claim on recession, the third red flag
            X4: Relying on GDP as a way to compare the future of economies, talking about the Chinese economy without knowing how it works or how much it relies on the American economy, fourth flag
            X5: The only thing lacking on this site was a stupid crypto bro high on dopamine and weed, nice.

          4. Yeah my expertise and knowledge doesn’t lie in economy. I never claimed I knew everything. You’re pointing it out like as if it’s some kind of gotcha moment when it really isn’t lol. I research about this stuff quite frequently and I do admit that I have plenty to learn but I am at least aware of the bare basics of how all the things I’ve mentioned can play a key role in all things economics.

            The fact that you’re playing down every point I made and suggesting that none if means anything tells me that you probably don’t have much of a clue yourself on how this system works. You said that the cause of a recession is unpredictable when you know that’s not necessarily the case. If you were truly enlightened in this field as you made it out to be in an obnoxious and condescending manner then you’d know that any country’s handling of invests with little to no return, whether it’s through debt or other means, can contribute to negative outcomes, recessions being one of those. When you’re throwing away cash with no financial returns, as with the case in proxy wars, and you’re printing money to make up for the loss, which as a result causes the currency to lose its value the more you do it, then how does that not contribute to the dollar losing its strength? Even if it’s a minuscule impact you have to realise that this is a recurring pattern with America and their long history of colonialism and dealing with foreign affairs that has nothing to do with them.

            Like you said, many things can play into it but I’m just looking at one aspect of it. Cryptocurrency is another one. It has a long road ahead to prove its worth and even I’m not 100% convinced by it at the moment. But if it were to gain more traction and to prove its reliability in the long run then people will eventually see the benefits it has over the dollar or any currency for that matter. It literally makes no sense in the modern age for any country to have an overwhelming reach in any field, especially in finance. Which is why I think for the US dollar to crumble would be a fantastic gift for the world and that a more decentralised currency (either from BRICS or crypto) to take over would be ideal an prospect for those hopeless countries that have been dead in the water for many decades or centuries.

            I fail to see how a “recession isn’t bad” when the outcome is usually negative: the price of markets go up meaning people need spend more for their day to day commodities, causing the impoverished to suffer the most, companies having to go through trials and tribulations (filing for bankruptcies if they have insufficient resources to pay off their debts, firing employees to prevent themselves from going under, etc). It helps to reset the market eventually but not until all the negative effects play out. Once again, the GDP is a great indicator to show off how well a country is doing. China continues to grow; they’re creating tons of jobs, taking people out of poverty, advancing beyond most others in manufacturing and IT fields whilst innovating in the process.

            Sure, they’re suffering downfalls but who isn’t? Every country has been dealing with increased hardships since the pandemic and for China, it’s obviously a learning process for them since it wasn’t that long ago when that they went from being one of the poorest countries in Asia to now the colossal giant that they are. Even African countries are leaning more towards them and feel inspired to imitate their workflow. This is why the GDP is a great indicator, albeit a rough one, that helps us to assess how well a country is doing financially. It doesn’t tell the whole story but when you see the list of countries that are declining, it doesn’t take much to observe why that may be the case.

            Anyways, if you come at me again with that rude, arrogant and American sympathising attitude once more I’ll end up blocking you because I have less patience these days. I’m not gonna deal with people who have a hard time communicating in a civil and respectful manner. If someone appears to be a little ignorant or perhaps provides false information in your point of view, there are ways of responding to that person without having to act like a douche just so you know.

          5. "Funding wars" is ruSSia not USA.

            Given USA's Pentagon budget, they're too stingy to fund Just Cause aka Ukraine's fight for freedom against communist tyranny.

          6. And what gives you the impression that Russia is communistic or tyrannical? You do realise that the USSR ended a long time ago, right? Putin, like Xi Jinping have been pretty brazen about embracing the capitalistic way of life because of the accomplishments they’ve seen with other capitalistic nations. And so far they’re doing better than ever. China especially with how fast they’re developing. The whole police state and social credit stuff is absolute garbage disinformation that continues to be propagated by Western propagandists like yourself.

          7. No… People are just fed up with the the way the world is monopolised by a sole nation. The same nation who always gets the last say in everything. Who gave the US the right to dictate what is right or wrong? Or what they define as a free world? I’m sure you dislike monopoly in any form, so you would agree that monopoly in a geopolitical sense is also detrimental to the world.

            I don’t think China, Russia and others have any reason to be jealous of the current state which the US finds itself in. Have you seen the women in those countries? The mass majority of them are happy, feminine and in good shape. There are no divisive movements there that’s posing a serious threat to their way of life like there is in the US. If you want a better quality of life in many ways you would be better off living there.

        3. BRICS makes even the worst parts of the USA look like a paradise. Besides, even Americans don’t like what the globalist corpo-left is doing to their society and especially their children: it’s a matter of when the blow-back starts, not if.

          1. Watch videos of those driving by the poorest areas of California and say that again with a straight face. Certain parts of the US are literally no different than some of the third world countries out there. The longer the people postpone in the blow-back the worse it’ll get. I admire the hope some people have but I just don’t see how they’ll come back from this. We’ll see how the presidential elections will turn out and that’ll be a great indicator of where the country will be heading next.

          1. Indeed. Even though Japan is currently undergoing similar sociopolitical issues, namely the uprising of feminism and LGBT movement. That could snowball into something worse that may affect the artistic integrity of the industry in the near future.

          2. I’m not really aware of the politics in SK but in terms of gaming they haven’t really made anything noteworthy outside of the MMO genre. Dave the Diver is basically their first attempt in a long time of making a non-MMO game with a budget. Sony has been reaching out to various companies there so I wouldn’t be so optimistic about their future considering how Sony is.

    1. The trailer makes USA look like a filthy lawless third-world country, which is what it’s going to be anyway.

        1. America as a country is a monumental achievement for mankind. Even today, it’s the best country on the planet.
          You just need to get your democrats and conservatives to work together, deport blacks and browns, and get rid of all religions for good.

  10. “From a business perspective, it makes total sense to skip PC. Release the game on consoles, make a lot of money, and then release it on PC so that you can make even more profits. By doing that, some may even double-dip.”

    May I present to you the tripple dip?

    Delay it to 2026. Release a next gen version in 2027. Release the PC version in 2028

    1. AKA GTA 5. Seriously tough, i would love to see studies in how prevalent double dipping is among game consumers. Can the success of Rockstar games even be attributed to these type of consumer whales, or are PC Rockstar fans first time consumers? Frankly i can’t tell.

    1. all games are made on PC, dev stations are just for testing and debugging hardware specific problems. Literary every game in existence was made on PC.

  11. Vice city is one of my favorite games. Rockstar has not made a good game since san andreas, bully and manhunt, gta iv sucked, it was boring, max payne 3 was not max payne and was super scripted, felt like there was less gameplay in it than cutscenes and they bragged how there are no cutscenes. gta v was ok at best, didnt worth the wait to play it on pc, played it once, played a bit of mp, got disappointed how bare bones the game is and grindy, stop playing. I dont carea bout rdr, i am not into westerns but the first game was a western the second game had too much “modern” writing and feels anachronistic, half of those guns did not exist when the game takes place. Rockstar of the old is dead, they fired the guy who wrote the story which i never liked to be honest but it beats “modern writing” this trailer looks awful to me, main character is ugly, everyone is ugly and disgusting, is this what florida is nowadays? If thats the case i understand why de santis is so successful. It doesnt look like vice city, it looks like san andreas, it doesnt have the style that vice city had, it looks ugly and like that youtuber put it “rockstar’s game design is outdated”

    I have zero interest on this, wtf is it gonna do to make me care? You think they gonna innovate or tell a good story? Probably not, i dont care and pc gamers are stupid for supporting this company who time and time again hates them and they have demonstrated they are incapable of multiplatform development compared to every other studio.

    1. ” main character is ugly, everyone is ugly and disgusting, is this what florida is nowadays? If thats the case i understand why de santis is so successful.”

      Desantis is successful because Florida is full of ugly people? lol.

        1. Not sure i follow, you think GTA is inspired by those articles? Btw ever since GTA 4 they stopped doing GTA’s based on the past.

          1. god your low iq stupid posts spamming is back, there are videos comparing the clips in the game to real life videos from florida.

          2. I didn’t saw those videos at the time of your reply, but i correctly deduced what you where trying to say by “google florida man articles”, hence my question. Who is the low iq goon now?

          3. Look at how much of a jerk you are just because i asked a simple question. Next time just say what you want to say instead of being a cryptic idiot.

  12. people will whine and moan about this (it’s what the commenters on here do after all) but they will still buy the game mutiple times. Take Two will stop doing it when you stop buying it.

          1. Let me know if you want to gift me some copies. I only got GTA5 when EGS offered for free, i usually pirate those games.

        1. i bought gta v many years after release in a cd keys deal for dirt cheap. I wont be making the same mistake with the next game, i have not play rdr 2 and i never will. I played gta iv once and it was the most boring game i ever played.

    1. I dunno about everyone here, but John in particular criticize rockstar and yet will spam the site with hundreds of rockstar related stories, so your criticism could be applied to him.

  13. yeah saw this earlier fitgirl had it on it’s site linked too. Looks horrific frankly from a saturated with social media pov and just plain using awesome graphics to show the ugliest things possible like Phantom Liberty dogtown did, gruesome stuff. As above so below pose there in the key pic too by the feminized man, typical.

    It says 2025, so PC the year after I’m guessing so 2026, def pass on this junk. The obnoxiousness of just playing this is going to be insane. I get the satire but still. Probably need like 200gb for this too and for sailing the high seas might be another year on top for that 2027.

    See joanna I didn’t support TT RS at all since EFLC disc I still have. Funnily enough I just went through that Vaas scene on my FC3 replay, great game to this day. Also replaying FC2 but for some reason it crashes consistently about 20-30mins into a session and of course very limited autosave in that game sucks.

    1. yeah wtf is up with that? We now have so much graphical power and what do they do with it? They show us ugly people and ugly backalleys with 4k ray traced trash and turds, who cares? 250gb of trash requiring a 4090 to run on high, no thanks.

      No idea what fc2 problem is use the gog version, it ha no securom drm.

      1. yeah I recognized the irony of them using amazing graphics to make ugly stuff in dogtown. Just wander around there and it’s a junk pile full of sick tweakers and psychotic killers, in contrast to say the sleek beauty of city center, japantown and the corpo area where the peralez live. Dogtown looks amazing and isn’t all ugly but by and large it’s a junkyard, weird contrast w the rest of the game imo I also play thehunter COW which uses Avalanche engine and is gorgeous nature etc TW3 has mostly gorgeous areas too. etc

        FC2 I have fortunes edition I think I need to force dx9 in the xml I have realism redux mod too so idk maybe restart needed.

      1. I don’ t like avatar, only saw the first movie and it sucked tbh 3d was cool in the theater but that was it. I had primal installed last couple weeks and played a fair bit but got bored tbh uninstalled. I played it through back when it came out. On the second half of FC3 hoyt now and early game FC2 few missions. Already done w blood dragon hilarious game too short though.

  14. If I wanted to see degenerate youth, I could watch a reality TV show. The fact GTA is so popular is beyond pathetic.

  15. To me, I got no grudge against Rockstar per se, I just wish that the ‘standard modern people’ wouldn’t be so heavily featured in today’s industry. That they’re around, fine, live your life, be happy. But the majority of people are just the normal people that play games for escapism, the whole Social Media // political undertone is just annoying. In matter of fact, I would personally prefer if games give us the option to make our own character, like the multiplayer of GTA or games like skyrim / cyberpunk etc. To have your own character being part of the story is just cool to see.

  16. Am I the only one who sees this game as just an expansion for GTA 5? The “sun soaked city” theme has become so stale and overdone with 5, and now they’re doubling down on it, but somehow even in a much worse fashion – with all the tiktoks and twerking. Rockstar are so f***ing afraid of taking risks and making something fresh. Can they even be called “Rockstar Games” anymore?

  17. GTA has always been overrated garbage by casuals, trespasser called and said it wants its open world back.

  18. GTA has always been overrated garbage by casuals, trespasser called and said it wants its open world back.

  19. If you are a true gamer then there is no rush to go and buy it anyway, You most likely already have a massive backlog on Steam/GOG/Humble Bundle/EPiC that will take you years to get through.
    By the time I get around to playing it after the 500+ others on backlog, It will be under half price.

  20. Rockstar could release GTA 5 on PC in 2013. But this will cost them millions of copies sold on PS4 and Xbox One. This is why they waited to 2015

    GTA 5
    – 2013: Playstation 3, Xbox 360,
    – 2014: Playstation 4, Xbox One,
    – 2015: Windows

    GTA 6
    – 2025: Playstation 5, Xbox Series X
    – 2027: Playstation 6, next Xbox
    – X: Windows

    1. Gorillas are majestic animals too. It’s not nice to compare such glorious creatures to basketball-Americans.

  21. agree with this…..rockstar take two treats pc gamers as third class people citizen & people still buying bruh…..& all those people saying wow wow graphics, they still don’t understand its coming for current consoles, it will be downgraded around 30% to run better for consoles, with less shaders, effects, post processing, density, overhaul etc etc…….modern gaming noobs kids & adult people doesn’t know all these things, we have been gaming from 2005 so we know all this…how a company lies you…its all marketing look, nothing else…………wait next year for the 2nd trailer then you will see close to final graphics & look

  22. I grabbed GTA V on PS3, because I was a poor college student who didn’t have a PC at the time. Eventually got it on PC during a sale. I skipped the console release of RDR2 and got that on PC in a sale also. I don’t think I’ll be playing GTA VI at all, I thought V was mediocre and my tastes have changed. I only played RDR2 because I love Westerns and we don’t get many games in that genre.

      1. pause at beach scene, everyone is black, not a single white person. Most “girls” are ugly fat whales because woke body positivity garbage.
        MC is latina strong wymyn that did nothing wrong and will be very easily able to beat sh*t out of mercenaries, seasoned criminals etc.
        Black people everywhere, only white people are rednecks and mentally ill old lady. More black people. More fat people.

        Thats from trailer but more importantly R* said themselves old R* is dead and they will now make games for modern sensibilities and modern audience aka woke garbage.

        1. The beach scene does have white people in it though, I can count at least 18. People being chunky, old, rednecks, black, and Latino is just real life. Have you ever been to Florida? There is a 17% black population in FL and only 5% in CA, so you should expect 3 to 4 times the number of black people in VI vs V. I happen to live in a place where only 1% of the population are black, which also happens to be the civilised, educated city where GTA V and VI was made; I do not find the trailer offensive. I have been to Florida and I also used to live in southern California, so I can compare that to what GTA V was like.

          Check out the bottom right of the beach scene again with a guy videoing some lassie’s backside. There are also (parts of) 6 white people and 2 black people in that tiny shot. How very woke.

  23. After GTA V i was done with the franchise (i find it boring and not memorable) and Rockstar, the last great GTA is the 4th one.

  24. GTA VI I’ll see you in 2030 when hopefully its released on PC and had some time to (a) drop from a ridiculous price and (b) had the bugs worked out from all the idiots who buy it on day 1. I could never get the hang of gunplay with my thumbs on controllers anyway much prefer the more intuitive keyboard and mouse.

  25. “Insanity is doing the exact… same f*king thing… over and over again expecting… sh*t to change“

    That’s just an Einstein paraphrase, thank you very much.

  26. yeah they will eventually but rn that’s why they release one every decade, so trash can pile up and offer them content.

  27. I don’t give a f@ck. I still do not own GTA 5.
    It is funny how idiots on steam were hyped to the heavens just to be disapointed.

  28. When will these console players realize this game is going to run at 30 fps?
    Maybe we will get this game on a playable framerate on PC in 2026.
    Assuming it is even a good game which I doubt.

  29. lmao it looks as if a bunch of worldstarhiphop regulars got together and made a mod for GTA online. Hard pass.

  30. From a business perspective, it makes total sense to skip PC. Release the game on consoles, make a lot of money, and then release it on PC so that you can make even more profits. By doing that, some may even double-dip.

    this is the dumbest argument i’ve ever read in gaming articles
    in what world skipping a platform that they sold over 25million copies on with GTA5 is good business?

  31. Making fun of PC gamers for buying games they are interested in is just stupid.
    PC gamers buy these games because they want to play them on PC. Many don’t double dip and hold out for the PC version. If Rockstar/T2 want to be d-bags and delay the PC release, that is on them and not PC gamers. PC gamers would gladly buy it at launch if they had the option. A boycott of the game completely is not going to happen and all we can do is complain about it and wish for them to be reasonable about things. The situation sucks, but don’t blame PC gamers, blame the dev/publisher.

  32. Of course the bloody fucrs do it this way. i know I would. Why change a winning concept. So these scumbags Rockstar fucrs will milk and milk with Thousends of releases. Worst of all, is that – Yeah Johny – how frikking dumbasses people are. Just hilarious really!

    And not that I will cry, I never been into these games eaiter way. Of course I played them. But they never been anything special at all!

  33. You’re almost certainly right, but I don’t think platforms have been officially announced. There’s no mention of them in the trailer, description, on Twitter/X, or on Rockstar website. I suspect they’ll announce today at 9am EST when the trailer was supposed to release before it got leaked.

    EDIT: Yep, officially confirmed on Rockstar’s website PS5 & XBS X|S only.

  34. To be honest, visually it doesn’t look that much better than GTA V. Given all the politics involved which is flowing through the trailer, it doesn’t make me interested in this at all.

    1. Company always use Switch bait to trick the customers like The last of us part 2 was best example with false advertising

  35. KFC must be multi billion dollar corporation in this vice city. Also Metformin must be as valuable as gold! And white people are the minority.

  36. what a boring trailer. so this is what “hot $hit” is supposed to look like, straight from the unwashed, degenerate, communist, arrogant studios of leftard amuricahh

    1. More like if it doesn’t sell as much as older titles did on PC they would reconsider this “release on PC later” decision. Because it’s impossible for them to sell zero copies on PC.

  37. To the surprise of no one, John found an angle to hate on. And also trashed on PC gamers as being the problem. Not that the crowd that fills this toxic comments section actually play or even like gaming, gotta feed their hate.

  38. trust me they are going to pre order it or worst they will buy a console especially for it
    the pc gaming community’s state is sh*t filled with cuckold American Redditors whose wife is getting effed in the basement by his ni**er male man and he is playing his favourite j-RPG life simulator in his room
    they don’t care and they won’t do anything 40% of GTA v players admitted to double dipping so it’s pointless
    honestly can’t wait to see America’s empire downfall between ni**ers and small d*ck whites or between democrats and republicans

  39. All governments, corporations etc. have already fallen slâves and sűck the dìčk of the global elite, their WEF, Blackrock & Vanguard, B.I.S. (world and central banks), NGOs, Think Tanks, agencies etc. their New World Order.

    There is no woke. There is no right vs. left, vax vs. anti-vax, men vs women, global warming believer vs. non-believer, homo/trans/whatever mental illness vs. hetero, – that’s all social engineering, perfectly copied from the likes of CIA-handbook, the elite have learned from many decades of Tavistock and similar institutions; to divide people, agitate them against each other, to distract them, to destroy societies, norms and value, morality.
    While everyone is busy and distracted, they push their NWO, their digital ID, CBDC, fake wars and plandemics, one world government.
    covenersleague(.)com/organizations/item/924-tavistock-the-institution-of-mass-brainwashing-social-engineering

    There is only the global elite pushing their NWO, partly through ESG, DEI, CEI and their social engineering (psyop, agitprop, divide and conquer).
    In fact it’s not even about ESG, DEI and CEI. That’s an open cover up for the global elite’s company social credit system.
    Just like in China (already finished), they first start to force companies into the social credit system.
    If companies don’t follow the New World Order’s rule set, they get negative score, thus no credit, money etc.
    After that comes the social credit sytem for us, the masses, step by step, with the end goal of digital ID and CBDC to perfectly control and surveil.

    1. Social Engineering: And that’s exactly what I see plenty in this trailer, in nearly every game which publisher/developer have already fallen, their centralized & controlled media, be it video games (as this one), music, movies etc.
      And it is obvious to see for everyone who is still sane, critical thinking, understands the NWO, because the elite is not really shy or covering their intentions, plans and agendas. No, they want everyone to see and know.

      And in the western world it all roughly all started big-time around ~2010.
      “Pizzagate”, whatever nonsense it was called, in the video gaming world, was one of their early social engineering.
      Everything else e.g. what has been seen about Activision/Blizzard, Bobby Kotick, is also social engineering.
      Everyone still sane and knowing has seen through it years ago.

      Nearly all the media is controlled, even the seemingly seen free/alternative media.
      The newly released CTIL-Files.
      This is how the global elite, through their puppets of governments, NGOs, Think Tanks, agencies as CIA, NSA etc. is playing their social engineering.

      1. Wait. I agree with everything you say, except… “it started around 2010”?
        It started centuries ago, actually.
        Check out the origins of freemasonry in particular.

      2. And in the western world it all roughly all started big-time around ~2010.

        I saw podcast by Geopolitical expert , it was start way back in 1960 by left people , where they start to hijacking lot of moment happened in American history like Feminist moment is one those examples , now WE are in Fourth generation wars where outside country like china pay money to news media , NGOs, universities to spread their ideology and try to disrupt their economy by protest , riots and other stuff which try to affects on country election and demographics. We are already in cultural wars where modern people used popular IP like the Witcher or fallout to push their message to their fans , that’s why those series are become garbage and totally rejects by audience and fans of the series , now Disney company in this state because they rejected by families and try to change audience from man to woman , The marvels with females bosses is best examples . Disney does not want to change , because someone or some people who is not aware of this will get brainwashed by their content, start to believing in their ideology

  40. Or europe, ozzy land, asia, london again but full game version. Could have gone to tel aviv right? they’re well versed in that area no doubt at TT rs, rdr2 w it’s marxism all over but otherwise great game.

    1. “Could have gone to tel aviv right?”

      They won’t make fun of themselves. It’s why you see so many jews in media but so little media about their criminal HQ.

  41. POLL suggestion:
    Did you like what you saw in the GTA VI trailer?

    My observation is that once you sweep aside the excitement for finally having GTA VI after 10+ years, the reveal, seeing some footage, the graphics, etc,

    NO ONE IS SAYING THEY LIKED WHAT THEY SAW of the game.

    There’s just excitement for the reveal, and that’s a huge difference. And it’s gonna crawl into discussions everywhere once the dust is settled.

    1. yeah i noticed that too the comments in youtube were not excited they said its good to finally have a new gta and it took so long.

        1. it can sell as much as it wants, it doesnt matter, its not like other devs will copy it or anything good will come out of it.

          1. is it? Look at watch dogs and saints row and just cause and sleeping dogs and true crime.

  42. A Latino tr00n and two blacks are depicted over there. Thank God this abomination will release on consoles only.

  43. first time i have ever read one of your articles and disagreed. do you really expect ppl to not buy a AAA good game whether it’s delayed or held back? it’s absurd to think ppl won’t buy them to send some sort of message. i’d think if everybody didn’t buy them then they wouldn’t even bother. atleast they know the pc market is huge. they will still sell the same amount of copys whether it’s released day 1 or not. If piracy wasn’t a thing on pc, i’m sure we would get it day one as well

    1. I dunno, but i always tought GTA past V was selling more on PC? This is not like older titles which didn’t benefit from online gaming.

  44. One thing i find interesting is how “unsophisticated” crime is in a modern GTA setting. Gone are the days of Mafia gangsters, now it’s just a garbage trash version of Bonnie e Clyde? I guess this trend began in GTA san andreas, but even the current day n-word americans are, in George Floyd words, a “lost generation” when compared to their 90’s inspiration.

  45. Sad, but pir@teb@y will be my friend to punish these kind of announces.
    Consoles are literally PC’s on Linux yet they still manage to pull of stunts like this..

  46. Best hope they have good multiplayer crack protection on PC release because I will 100% pirate this sh**ty attempt at hyper consumerism.

    Amen to piracy 🤑🤑

  47. And, I’m going to be honest with you. PC gamers DESERVE to be treated like second-class citizens. If you didn’t like this attitude, you wouldn’t have made RDR2 and GTA5 huge commercial successes on PC. If you wanted to be treated as first-class citizens, you would have sent the appropriate message by not buying Rockstar’s games. But no, you had to buy those games. So, time to reap what you sow.

    Here’s where this line of thinking falls apart: let’s say no one bought Rockstar’s games on PC. Wouldn’t this actually make Rockstar think that it isn’t worth porting their games to the PC since no one would buy it on the PC? So yeah, your logic makes no sense.

  48. Hate to say but the fat twerking lady burned into my retina. Is this going to be the new norm? BLM everywhere, in every game?
