Yep, unless it’s a thrashed out 70 series he’s not interested. Just have to laugh at some of his vids.

He actually liked the Electric Hyundai, but he puts it in perspective.

Watching one now about rusty LDV ute.

The biggest issue for GTA 6 is that all the producers and writers have gone plus Lazlo has gone from rockstar too.

Only Sam Houser is left.

I hope it's not watered down nonsense, the edgy stuff is part of what has made GTA great.

I would LOVE if they had a dedicated station with Tim Dillon rants. I’ve been thinking about it for months, the best thing about the radio stations is the bizarre talkback’s and radio hosts.

Why do people camp? I’ve never understood it.

I love it. Love sleeping amongst the trees and the bugs, and occasionally the cows (not a euphemism).
I’ve been using swags for the last 15 years and I’m starting to think a tent might be better. I’m tired of trying to put pants back on in the swag in the morning, even though it’s a double size.

The worst thing about camping is unpacking the car afterwards. Packing the car can be rough, I was so hungover at the start of the year I spent the morning vomiting, it was absolutely pissing down with rain and I didn’t pack the kitchen up the night before. I was so miserable, all my clothes were wet. 45 minute drive home felt like 3 hours. Was soaked to the bone and spent the rest of the day on the couch without a single shred of guilt.

It will still be edgy, but it will most likely be lacking the satire that the past games had imo.

And Ultimately will be whatever the shareholders and investors want to get the most return.

The best ranter in the world atm. Perfect mixture of intelligence and comedy.

And you love it? That’s like loving eggplant

I have a feeling it'll just be watered down and too nice. Definitely will feel like a different game with so many moving on too I think.

There's something romantic about being so hungover, your only choice to piss is to unzip the swag a few CMs and poke the snorkel through the hole while still laying down. Can't do that at home or in those fancy hotels.

No but you can watch the saints lose at a fancy hotel and it’s easier to get a girl call out.

To hide from your spouse and get drunk. And burning and cutting up shit is fun too.

Does anyone else watch Survivor? It's the only FTA TV show I watch now.

No, no I don't it is rubbish
Would rather read some of Georges post

I've got no hopes for GTA6. They've spent the last however long milking GTAV and perfecting their monetisation strategies. Online quickly became a joke but releasing more stuff for people to spend money on and grind for took all their attention away from the game updates they promised. I'm guessing GTA6 will be the culmination of all the predatory crap they've learned from GTAV.

I don't have much hope for it either. They've realised how much they can capitalise on either half arsed projects or monetisation so I think GTA 6 might be a bit of both. Can't see it having any kind of impact like GTA VC or SA did.

 

[Mowman]

I don't have much hope

Sadly no you don't

Still reeling from being exposed as the Holey Moley fraud?

It's okay, you'll need more than that to win some dignity back, tiger.

Fair to say, I own a copy of GTAV, took one look at the Shark cards line up that then popped up and promptly never installed it to do anything with it. But it's there to be a reminder that it'll never be as bad as EA.

I was firmly in the "oooh, Bloodlines 2" camp before yeah, cooling significantly as yeah, let's all change dev halfway through as that never goes **** up in any development cycle...

2 years and counting, fearing a Duke Nukem Forever with this one.

For all those doubting GTA 6, lets not forget their last effort was Red Dead Redemption 2 which was one of the most beautiful games ever released, fantastic graphics, fantastic story. Great characters.
I won't count Rockstar out, even if the head honcho's are out. RDR2 looks like a next generation game, what they did was incredible. The created an incredible world to explore, I can't think of any other game that comes close to what the pulled with RDR 2. It might be my favourite game from that generation, if not, it's #2 behind The Witcher 3.

I tried to like RDR2, actually only got around it it this year played it this year, but only made it about 6 hours in.
It's hard to explain why it didn't click for me, I think despite being a huge open world I didn't feel like I had any free will. A great looking game and raises the bar in a number of ways but the gameplay loop and mechanics just bored me and I don't feel compelled to come back to it.

Pretty keen to try Dying Light 2 but I think I'll wait for a sale on that one.

playing dying light 2 right now. I'd wait for a sale unless you know for a fact you've got a few mates to play with. It's a tad buggy but nothing compared to the shitshows of the last couple years of big releases. Story is (in my opinion) somehow worse than the first, they tried to have a proper story with emotional payoff and themes but the characters are all somehow dull and unlikeable at the same time. Gameplay is as always the king in this series.

I've heard a tiny bit about Dying Light 2, all is good. As for RDR2, I didn't fall in love with that game until the third chapter. I beat the game and then started a new game with the intention to 100% everything. I stopped playing eventually, but I did a ton of sidequests and optional stuff early. I felt the game was best when you let it lead you around the map, ie from the storyline. If you roam the entire environment before you're suppposed to visit, it does ruin some of the immersion. I think I'm rambling, but fair enough. I nearly gave it up early on, too.

I've been fully addicted to playing Diablo 2 Resurrected on the Switch, I'm 50/50 whether I'll buy the newest Pokemon game. I haven't enjoyed one si nce Gold/Silver.
Diablo 2 is one of those games that is timeless. It's almost perfect.
