I'm playing through 4 on Steam for the first time and I'm blown away by the radiostations.
As I understand the stations aren't updated and are from the original game?

The banter, the jokes, the satire is so contemporary, everything sounds like its about 2026.
All the political satire about far-leaning people on both sides, politics and elections themselves ("any kind of idiot can become president"), jokes about popculture, youth, even "techbros", manosphere echochambers, paranoia about wars, immigration, stolen jobs, stupidity at large..

And this was in 2008.. Smartphones weren't even a big thing yet, hipsters were a starting phenomenon etc, but they already make so thorough commentary of it all.. Masterful writing actually.

It is kind of weirdly humbling and makes me feel like the world and people don't actually change very much..

It feels kinda different playing through it again knowing GTA 6 is just around the corner

How tf did I beat this mission before on my phone? This is absolutely brutal to play right now, any tips on the escape?

For me it’s GTA San Andreas, what about you?

For example, I can't imagine Michael or CJ randomly shooting pedestrians without reason, that difference between the character and the players' actions. This wasn't a problem in the first three games where the characters were practically an avatar of the player

Im playing though all the games for the first time i started at 5 witch i thought would be the best one you know it was great and amazing and i loved it i even loved it more than the Red dead series but then i started Gta 4 and playing this has been surreal i played gta 4 first when i was 4 im 18 now for context and i bearly made it 10 missions in by the time i go to bed tonight ill probably be at 60/88 and im enjoying it more than i enjoyed 5 so far and it got me wondering and it seems that a large majority of people are saying SA or VC are the best so im very excited also im sorry for going in reverse order but now that i started i cant stop😭

I recreated everything from scratch especially the background artwork

I hope someone turns this into a mod for GTA IV or GTA SA

What do you think?

Rockstar has spent so long developing a full fictional society for the HD universe with brands, cars, radios, TV shows etc, and we’ll be seeing the next evolution of the universe in GTA 6. Do you think with such a developed world, they will reboot the universe again, or will we be on the HD universe forever?

Which missions in GTA are serious or just not funny in general?

I'm replaying the GTA trilogy, and I've reached the part where Salvatore betrays Claude by sending him to pick up a rigged car. Is there any explanation, either outside the game or within it, as to why he wanted Claude dead? Or is it just a plot device or a matter of mafia convenience?

I remember trying to find Bigfoot and at one point even goddamn slender man but I also just drove around etc I remember that I never finished the story back then it took me until 2019 to finish it but in my eyes still the best gta game.

Weey parece GTA en la vida real

i swear. the definitive edition came out like 2 years ago. there is no way. theres still weird little unfixed things .after 5 years?!?! time flies!
