This is the kind of thing that doesn't get enough attention. Even if you buy the game on physical media, the game companies can just outright remove things from the game via an update.

GTA V was released in 2013. I beat the game in the first week and haven’t played since. Wow, 9 years later and it’s still going

That’s because the disk you buy is basically a download key

I beat it back then, and then played through it again when it was free on game pass. Still don't own it.

No kidding?

Believe it or not, at one time, that disc that you bought was the actual damn game...and it was ready to play right out of the box.

Enjoy paying 60 bucks for those download keys. Just save some cash for the inevitable "DLC" when they actually finish the game.

I buy every one of these games and hate the gameplay. I don’t learn. Just take my money.

Saint's Row was a better franchise, anyway. Too bad that IP is dead as dog shite.

Saints row is actually getting a revival this year.

However, I’m not convinced that it’s going to be worth playing.

That's how I'm feeling about GTA VI. Rockstar has lost it's way.

They have definitely become a shell of themselves.

A big part of their appeal was their satirical no holds barred approach to mocking American culture. They have neutered themselves.

Their release schedule is so painfully slow with an over reliance on monetizing gta online.

Just a sad state of affairs.

Rockstar bends the knee to trannys though. frick GTA6. Don't even want it anymore.

As a huge TLoU fan I didn't even play 2 yet because of the leak. It was such forced shite.

This tweet doesn't seem official has anyone confirmed?

"Appear to have removed"

Bc if so terrible news for the future of GTA

Most of the jokes that they made about Conservatives(Blaine County Radio) didn't age the way that they probably expected them to.

It's a hilarious station but most of those Conservative "loons" seemed to know what they were talking about.
