Grand Theft Auto VI [rumored title]

8 hours, 2 minutes - In today's Daily Fix:Grand Theft Auto 6 went up for preorder a few weeks ago, and it's already sold $260 million worth of early purchases. According to analysts at Newzoo, the game is on track to hit between $3 and $5 billion dollars in the first week. Yes, that's BILLIONS of dollars in sales in Week 1. By comparison, GTA 5 made $1.15 billion in its first week at a lower price point than GTA 6 will be launched at. In other news, a player in AC Black Flag Resynced accidentally found the treasure in an upcoming in-game event, causing Ubisoft to cancel the event, while praising that player's treasure-hunting skills. And finally, an in-person Pokémon Go event in New York saw attendees sell their rare Mewtwos for thousands of dollars on eBay, much to the disgust of many fans.

6 days, 14 hours - Few missions in GTA’s history would make such a big and noticeable change to the geography of the host city as the GTA 3 mission, Bomb Da Base Act II, which goes some way to explaining why all 45 seconds of this short, sharp, Tin Can Alley sniper mission remains so memorable.Bomb Da Base in GTA 3 massively raises expectations for what’s to come, and proved to be a tantalising glimpse at the ever more complex, Bruckheimer-worthy setpieces that would come to define Rockstar’s later games, their narratives, and the subversive mission design that this most Triple-A of Triple-A studios is capable of.By today’s standards, it’s extraordinarily simple. But make no mistake: with GTA 3, Rockstar invented the modern video game, and with Bomb da Base Act II, GTA reinvented itself.

1 week, 6 days - You don't become one of the biggest, most profitable media franchises in human history without stepping on a few toes, especially when there’s literally a violent felony in your name.Grand Theft Auto was destined to collide with controversy. Lawsuits, international incidents, and full-on moral panics have followed in the wake of the series’ unparalleled success. And while there’s often a kernel of truth to some concerns raised over the violent, over-the-top nature of GTA, advocacy groups and opportunists have spent decades disingenuously trying to take one of gaming’s greatest series down before it warps the fragile little minds of our children.From a sex mini-game mod called Hot Coffee, to moral outrage at the game's use of "enhanced interrogation techniques", these are Grand Theft Auto’s biggest controversies.

2 weeks, 6 days - Right now, consoles are not exactly flying off shelves - generally, raising the price of things by several hundred dollars doesn’t make people MORE inclined to buy them - but if a recent report is to be believed, they might soon be in very high demand.The Game Business reported that a senior buyer for a “major retailer” spoke anonymously to them about the likelihood of shortages later this year, claiming “We’ve been informed that because of the on-going issues around hardware component availability, we won’t be getting the units we want ahead of GTA. Demand will likely outstrip supply during the year end period.”Max has all that and more on your Daily Fix!
