- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Release battle, which one will release first:
GTA VI
The Elder Scrolls VI
Hytale
Half Life 3
Mario Kart 9
HL3 and TES VI will never release. Those are pipe dreams. I'm going with GTA VI, because I think Take Two Interactive disclosed in their Form 10-K that they had a major IP releasing at the end of calendar 2024. For context, the SEC really doesn't like it when firms fuck around on those forms.
We more or less got HL3 in Half Life: Alyx. People can deride it for "not being a real Half Life game" because they personally don't like VR or something, but it's pretty much HL3
A 5 or 6 year window between massive titles is pretty normal these days. 5 years separated GTA IV and V. Also, 5 years also separated GTA V and RDR2.
Looks like the might have a 6 year gap this time, but they also had a global pandemic mucking up development. A lot of studios struggled with that.
The Dunkey video caused this
The excitement! I bet the shareholders are absolutely drooling! Think of the dividends, woooo /barf
Is anyone that excited any more about a new GTA? More of the same I expect. Slightly nicer graphics. Big meh.
People said the same thing before GTAV came out.
We’ll see if GTA VI can make a billion dollars just from pre-orders
I think that's just life and getting older. A lot of years have passed since the last one, you're older now. I'm less excited about everything the older I get. Everything is big meh to me now
I mean there are plenty of games I love or look forward to, even as an old fart ;) but GTA6 or Ubisoft Themepark 12.. kinda over it.
Of course for kids playing these games for the first time it's different.
I loved the GTA V story. More than happy to have another campaign from Rockstar.
