GTA 6 will be the most important release not only in video game history but in the entire history of computing. If Alan Turing has known his work would lead to GTA 6 he would've died with a smile on his face.

Now that we are approaching the historic release of GTA 6 we can sleep easy for the launch of this, the greatest possible achievement of human culture, marks the completion of all our aspirations.

We can do no more, nor do we have to. We will have achieved all there is to achieve. GTA 6 will not only revolutionize everything, it will also obviate the need to improve upon anything because a world with GTA 6 in it is impossible to improve upon.

God weeps. Whether it's tears of joy because his creation has finally surpassed him or tears of grief as it is no longer possible for anything to soar to greater heights is unknowable. But we do know this: If you don't preorder immediately you will be the first against the wall when the revolution comes.

This is either top tier satire or my brain humbly requests to melt from the hilarious ignorance.

... What? No? Is this secretly a business insider article? I have no doubt that it'll sell far, far, far more than it should, but it won't even marginally important. Mario was big, daggerfall was big, half life alyx was big, what is gta 6 going to do for the industry? What influence is it going to have? It's it going to be entirely in vr? Cause that could make it big.

It's going to make boatloads of money.

But yeah, this is either regurgitated press release straight from the publisher, or some intern using a puff piece to meet their metrics on number of articles.

Bullshit. No such thing.

GTA used to be a satiracle view into society and the gaming industry. Now it represents the worst aspects of both. I have no doubt it will be a good game but i also Wouldn't be surprised to see it flop as the studio is so disconnected from what made the other games great.
