- Thread starter dex3108

It's the single most hyped game in existence.
A total cultural gaming reset is coming just like what it felt like when GTA5 was released.
Too hyped? I don't care đź¤

So, I mean, this should really, truly cement it with people who humour Rockstar needing a platform or hype machine for their titles.
For a long time now the Rockstar name branding has been so strong they, as a publisher, can literally do whatever the fuck they want, whenever the fuck they want, in consideration of the marketing cycle, because the name and branding of the company and their titles holds amongst the largest sway in the interactive entertainment industry. They don't need an event hosted by a console owner. They don't need the Game Awards or whatever else. They don't need E3, GDC, or anything else.
GTA is such a monstrously powerful brand, so widely recognised and desired on a global scale, that Rockstar have comfortably gotten away re-releasing and updating the multiplayer for the most recent iteration, for literally a decade, made bank doing so, and still break a record by posting a fucking trailer date image on twitter for the next game.

Genuinely think the internet is gonna go out for a bit when the trailer drops.
Era will go down, YouTube may go down, twitter will grind to a halt if not go down, even tiktok may go down

Fortnite is the most embarrassing shameless game to ever be released to me. Shocking it gets so much support in the mainstream.
And here's me not even having played a GTA game since 2008 lol.
To say GTA is popular is an understatement, whatever the budget was for making this new one, it'll be way more than recouped on pre-orders alone. And that's before getting into the new version of GTA Online which will likely come with the game and will keep the funds rolling in for Rockstar for a long time.
I still remember the days they were DMA Design, how far they've come!

I'm real happy for GTA and imma let you finish, but this also kinda shows how over Twitter, I mean X, is. Roughly 1 percent of the people who bought GTAV liked this tweet. Less than one percent if you go by Minecraft or Fortnite players.
Cristiano Ronaldo posting himself drinking a coffee gets 5 times as much engagement on Instagram than this GTAVI trailer date tweet.
Geoff would have to pay R* big money for them to grant GTAVI to premiere at TGA.
But wait until you hear about this really exciting $20 mtx that puts your character in a costume that we'll say is "(x) coming to Fortnite".
The dude who said this on another thread recently is about to have a bad time lol.

Here's Reddit, over the past year it's exploded.
Both you guys should give V a shot, the campaign's phenomenal
Just play San Andreas and IV then hold out for VI. V will sour you on the series. III and Vice City haven't aged well either.
V is the best of the series and the only one I actually finished.
Or you can play RDR2.

I bet we'll get an emergency alert on our phones when the trailer drops. And we'll be thankful for it.
GTA basically is the quintessential idea of a videogame sandbox, like ask a person who doesnt know about videogames how one works , and the answer that will come out of their mouths will be some form of a GTA game than any other videogame in existence.
No wonder it has this pull even so many years after the last one.

I remember playing San Andreas with my cousins when I was younger, but we basically just messed with cheats the whole time. I also bought GTAIV when it came out due to the hype, played for a few hours, got bored, and never played it again.
I haven't played a Rockstar game since, so the current hype cycle of "Most anticipated piece of media ever" is a little bewildering.
