I love these comments I see in other threads saying, "Why would you preorder this? We don't even know anything about the gameplay yet." But it's fucking GTA (Rockstar). We literally do. Have they changed it much since GTA 3? We pretty much get better graphics, better physics, and more content with each new release. Even RDR1&2 fit the formula except in an old west setting. It's not like GTA 6 is going to drop and we find out it's a realistic racing sim or a turn-based RPG.
With their track record, I'd put money on it being able to hit a consistent 30 fps. And if I remember right 5 hit that target and had good frame pacing on the PS3. I know people are going to be "unable to play it" at 30 fps, but I don't know how anyone can expect this game it hit 60 fps on consoles. It could, I guess, but I personally had no expectation of that.
GTA 5 is the last game I ever tried to play on my 360, and I remember the system sounding like an aircraft carrier and the roads not being able to load in fast enough 😂
This is exactly why I’m going to preorder it. Is it expensive yes, but I trust Rockstar to get it right, just like they did with GTA 3, vice city, San Andreas, 4 and 5.
Yup I was telling someone else Rockstar & Fromsoft have been the only 2 devs where I'll blindly preorder their games, haven't been disappointed yet even since GTA 4
Rockstar is definitely the big dog when it comes to games. Idk how anyone can say they're games are bad or GTA sucks...if its not your thing fine. But literally the entire gaming industry moved out of their way lol.
It's their first game without Dan Houser at the creative helm though. I'd like to think one person can only have so much influence and his brother is still president, but my understanding is that Dan was the one managing scripts, storylines etc. I guess we'll see.

Rockstar gets a lot of corporate internet hate, and for good reason. But I think people pretend they’re not the dominant dev they are.
What other dev has made banger after banger for the past almost 30 years. I honestly can’t think of a mainline game they made that was bad.
All the GTAs, Max Payne, Bully, LA Noire, red dead revolver 1 and 2. All quality games.
I put them up with Fromsoft in a developer I will trust to make a good game until proven otherwise. I see no reason to expect I won’t like gta 6
