From GameWatcher: "Yesterday many news sites reported the astonishing news that Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto 5 was now the most profitable entertainment product ever, earning more than any other game, movie, album or anything else in history. This is incorrect."
Take-Two announced its financial results for the fiscal year 2025, also sharing an update on the sales of GTA5 and Red Dead Redemption 2.
The anticipation for GTA6 has reached fever pitch, with the latest trailer being the biggest video launch of all time.
Milk...get your milk...and so much more. Really when you release the same games in three editions over 15 years it's amazing how much money, and the amount of sales you earn. It's amazing how no one can compete.
To be fair, no many companies could release the same game over and over. They've earned that whether we agree or not
GTA v isn't the only game that's released three consoles generations running but nothing has sold those numbers including GTA San Andreas which is now 4 console generations deep.
No surprising considering that it’s been on every major platform and store.
I decided to look up the longest and most sold games list. To my surprise Tetris has takes the top spot.
A new Grand Theft Auto VI early comparison video highlights the massive jump in character detail, environments and more over its predecessor.
I mean, considering the amount of time between the two. It better be a massive upgrade. Especially with the amount of money Rockstar raked in from GTA Online.
Literally none are. If you know anything about rockstar they don't do that. Confirmed by themselves that this is all in-game
Is that why first gta5 trailer looked better than the final product? Or is that why same happened with rdr2 ?
Rockstar told 50% are cutscenes and rockstars always used better models during cutscenes than in game.
You legit seems to know rockstar very well.
It didn't though? And neither did RDR2. In fact it was actually the opposite. What's with the hate boner? If you don't like it just avoid the topic
Why don't either of you provide proof. This is just a he said, she said argument at this point
You're either lying or just don't know what pre rendered means. Pre rendered means that if you change the character's appearance (clothes, accessories etc) they wouldn't show up in the cutscenes because they were already made and aren't being rendered in real time. This is something that doesn't happen in Rockstar games.
"Is that why first gta5 trailer looked better than the final product? Or is that why same happened with rdr2 ?"
In fact some of the scenes in RDR2 looked better in the retail version than at launched.
The OP is taking the shot-gun approach: say a bunch of random tripe and see if something sticks.
Rockstar’s iconic title Grand Theft Auto V is making headlines once again—but not for the reasons fans might hope. Less than a year after GTA V joined the
I believe it's been on ps+ a few times over the years of I'm not mistaking same goes for gamepass.
‘GTA V Gets Pulled from PS Plus as PC Players Continue to Favor Legacy Over Enhanced’
That’s an awful clickbait title. The use of the word ‘as’ means the first statement is the result of the second, when in reality they’re not connected.
Also the same for red dead redemption 2 and GTA trilogy (albeit they split that into individual games)
It just got put back on Game Pass recently too.
GTA V is the pass-around sub title, and it probably doesn't even matter because everyone owns a copy or even two by now.
so i looked cause i was curious, its still avaliable to me.
the headline is misleading asf.
also, how did no one report this. the editing is horrendous. they'd have my arse for this ha
Noticed my copy of gta5 on Steam was already upgraded without me doing anything. How can you still play the legacy version?
There should be a second listing right under it in your library.

Is there anything wrong with the enhanced version if you’re just playing single player?
makes sense
Can't stand how easy the spread of misinformation happens now
world of warcraft is the biggest game ever, its not even close. World of Warcraft had 12 million concurrent subscribers at its peak, not sales but subscribers paying a monthly fee. Total sales for world of warcraft must be close to 200 million considering its lifespan, worldwide popularity and how many people still play.
I think it’s fair to say WoW has the advantage of forcing players to subscribe if they want to play. GTA has managed to do this by only making players buy into a single copy of the game that hasn’t really budged in price since launch.
Either way the fact that it's sold as much as it did shows how easily impressed gamers have become.
