I always appreciated the roster of songs that each GTA brought to the table.

Vice city and San Andreas were cool time capsules for their respective eras. GTA IV and GTA V being set in current day allowed them to showcase some bands that were not as well known. Was able to find some cool new bands that way.

I hope that rockstar doesn’t get too focused on nostalgia and the 80’s and can deliver some cool indie stations and lesser known songs again.

No hard rock at all. No metal. No hair bands. No punk. Just pop, pop rap, and 80s.


MTV made Pop the most dominant genre through the bulk of the 80s, and I think that is what they are going for.

70s born Arena rock was still a thing, until it got replaced by the Hair Bands of the late 80s. Hard Rock was very mild by in early 80s compared to 70s and the grunge of 90s.

Depeche Mode is spot on for 80s

Def Leopard was hard rock of the 80s. Deep Purple are legit founders of heavy metal, add in Bon Jovi and David Lee Roth. I would give anything if Roth could add songs from 1984, but that is not going to happen probably.

Tom Petty and Wang Chung, for more 80s vibe. It would be amazing if the rest of the Highwaymen were there with Waylon Jennings, but George Straight and Glen Campbell, along with Tammy Wynette is going to make for a good country station.

I’m pretty excited about this finally coming out. I’ve been playing GTA consistently (well as consistently as they are released) since GTAIII came out in 2001.

Since I have vacation time out of the wazoo I’ll probably take a few days off when this comes out and play the shite out of it. My wife already conceded and told me “I guess I know what you’ll be doing all thanksgiving break.”

I’ve been putting off buying a new console for a LONG time and will buy a new Xbox for this.



My question for you guys is it worth getting the series X over the S? I’m leaning towards the 1TB S.

Series X, the S should be shot and killed.

Ive been with Xbox for 20 years at this point and defended them on here. But over the last month with their moves on cloud gaming and Gamepass, the better move right now is PS5

Your xbox might explode if you try to play this on an S. Definitely get a base PS5 (the pros are sold out everywhere)

They put 6 songs up on spotify.

Not a fan of Travis Scott but his song "Rhyno" was produced by Guy from Daft Punk.

A Series X and base PS5 will be the same. If Wafer has an existing Xbox library, I would stay with that. If new go with PS.

To his question why, GTA 6 is going to be one of the most detailed and resource intensive games released on this generation consoles, and the S is by far the weakest option. It will have a noticeable difference from the other 2.

Saving money is not worth it sometimes.

I'm willing to hold out 6 months to 2 years to avoid 30 fps sand paper on the retina frame rates. I've never understood Rockstar's insistence on PC releases being post official launch.

EXCLUSIVE: According to reports, "#PlayStation has censored #GTA6 when it features Jason, having explicit sex with Lucia, including fluids, moans, and the act itself. #XBOX has not censored this feature, says guy at GameStop."


I'm sure this is false, but I gotta be honest. I'm not sure who would be the "winner" in this scenario, PS or XBOX.

"Says guy at gamestop" I think is equivalent of saying "I know this is true because my dad works at Nintendo. His name is Mr. Nintendo"

I mean, were it true, this would make me buy the PS version over the Xbox.

I don't care whether it is on PC.

I can mod that shite out.
