    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Rockstar Games released the first trailer for Grand Theft Auto VI ahead of schedule on Monday night after it was leaked online.

    The trailer confirmed that the massively successful video game franchise would return to the fictional Vice City, based on Miami, and appears to show the series’ first female protagonist.

    The trailer, which showed off fast cars, robberies, strip clubs and even an alligator walking into a store, garnered almost 20 million views on YouTube two hours after it was uploaded.

    Some users commented that this evoked “major Bonnie and Clyde vibes,” referring to the infamous American crime couple during the Great Depression.

    The trailer has been keenly awaited by gamers, with more than a decade passing since the last installment of the Grand Theft Auto series was released.

    Earlier this year, a British court found a teenager responsible for leaking around 50 minutes of in-game footage during the development stage back in 2022.

        Rockstar Gaming disapproves

        Yeah they treated it really bad and the cheaters were everywhere and toxic playerbase is not really good.

        And after i looked up how gta online handles serverside/clientside code, i can understand how easy it is just to cheat.

      Uh, it looks similar to GTA5 because it is the SEQUEL… The graphics and detail are amazing, GTA5 will probably feel like PS2 graphics when this is out.

      Sure it’s just a trailer and no gameplay but if the trailer uses the games graphics engine this is incredibly impressive.

      70€ for hundreds or thousands of hours of entertainment is a pretty damn good deal. Compare that to a ticket at the cinema for 2 hours.

        I would not say its hundreds or thousands of hours? 30 hours max for GTA V for my “playthrough” and Online is not usable for coop or anything else then shitting on new users. But i was never a fan of GTA so you can be more hyped than me.

          That is a ridiculous amount of time to put into a game. And completely impractical and shouldn’t be considered a selling point. Thousands of hours probably but Jesus relax.

          RDR2 is so massively detailed and open that frankly I think that game is worth HUNDREDS of hours of gameplay. Two years in and I’m still finding new things to do. I agree I didn’t spend that long with V outside of the main story given how little there is to do, but it’s safe to say they’re gonna take everything that was a masterpiece with RDR2 and just put it in GTA. That’s kind of why the hype is so large.

            My biggest problem with RDR2 is how linear and on-rails it felt. Seemed like a ton of window dressing with very little to actually do outside of the main story and its big action set pieces. One of my biggest gaming disappointments. I really hope GTA VI puts more love into its open world this go around.

      It looks like a GTA knock-off. The amount of fuckbois in the trailer gives off a Saints Row vibe more than a GTA one.

        Judging by comment history this seems to be their default attitude towards everything.

          Alright. I thought I’d missed a controversy.

          I know some people complain about GTA Online, but with anything as surplus to human needs as video games I’d say just vote with your Dollar.
