Disappointing news
Almost ten years after the last edition released in 2013, GTA fans were eager to hear about the sequel. But since the announcement of the next opus, the fans do not pose still a lot of questions. Indeed, we still do not know when exactly “Grand Theft Auto VI” will be released, nor if it will actually be called like that and on which consoles it will be available. The previous “playgrounds” had been inspired by cities such as New York, San Francisco or Miami.
By reading the reactions of the players on social networks, some fans were disappointed that the publisher did not take the opportunity to announce other titles in parallel. Players believe that Rockstar has always been a bit of a visionary and that it’s a shame that technologies as crazy as LA Noire’s MotionScan, which uses 32 high-definition cameras to capture movement, never got a sequel. Same topo for those who would like the return of Bully and Max Payne. For Bully, this is all the more true since recent rumors have however reported a possible remake or sequel.
A violent game
Since the very first installment in the series, in 1997, the game has been as popular as it has been criticized for its violence. The player is invited to slip, more or less in the manner “Sims”, in the skin of criminals. He can then collect weapons, kill bystanders, steal cars and so many other reprehensible things, while carrying out “missions” to recover money. The violence is such that Grand Theft Auto is known as the only game to have received a classification reserved for adults.
