Rockstar Games announced that cheating in GTA Online has decreased. They made some updates to the game and noticed other changes in how players behave. They also shared some results and asked players questions in a new survey.

On Monday, a question from Rockstar Games' new survey was reported. It suggests that the next-gen features might come to PC in the next three months. More details about that question can be found here, but it was just one of many in the survey.

Fortunately, well-known GTA content creator Gtamen shared the full survey. He made a video going through it, and as usual, it includes some interesting details. These surveys are sent out from time to time, with the last major one reaching players' inboxes in August.

Rockstar's survey includes many questions, mostly general ones about new content added in the past six months. It gives players a chance to share what they like or dislike about the game. However, some questions stood out as more important.

Cheating Comes to a Halt

First, let's look at a question about the Anti-Cheat system Rockstar added in September:

“We recently introduced BattlEye, an anti-cheat software that helps us identify and take action against cheaters. Since its introduction, we have observed a significant reduction in the level of cheating in GTA Online on PC. Have you noticed the reduction in cheating in GTA Online?”

Some players believe there are fewer cheaters in the PC version of GTA Online, and it's good to have official confirmation. BattlEye quickly disabled many free mod menus, which caused developers to stop working on these cheats.

It's unfortunate that GTA Online no longer works on Linux devices like the Steam Deck, but this seems to be the best choice for most players. Around the same time, Respawn also stopped supporting Linux for Apex Legends. They reported a 33% drop in cheaters after that.

Frauds Caught

One page of the survey mentions that Rockstar launched a ban wave targeting players who obtained money through unfair methods: "There has been a wide-scale removal of accounts with inflated player rank or illegitimate GTA$." The exact timing of this ban wave is not known, though.

Oppressor MkII Nerf

A big problem for GTA Online players over the years has been the Oppressor MkII causing chaos in the skies over Los Santos during sell missions and other activities. Similar to the Anti-Cheat question, Rockstar asked players if they’ve noticed less trouble with the Oppressor.

“We recently decreased the effectiveness of the Oppressor MkII hoverbike and its lock-on missiles in our efforts to balance the vehicles available for players. Since these changes, have you noticed a decrease in the amount of aerial griefing you’ve experienced in GTA Online lobbies?” This suggests they’ve seen a significant drop in the number of Oppressor MkII users causing problems for other players.

If you missed the survey, we suggest checking out Gtamen’s video, where he covers all the questions with some humor. 

Nintendo has finally announced the Switch 2 on Thursday after months of rumors and leaks. There isn’t much information about the new hybrid console yet, but there’s still enough to discuss, especially in connection to Rockstar Games.

The Switch 2, following one of the best-selling consoles ever, is highly anticipated. It might even be one of the most awaited console launches, though not quite as much as GTA 6. With the upgraded hardware expected in the new console and Rockstar’s past support for the original Switch, there’s a good chance we’ll see more Rockstar Games titles on this new system.

Classics Play On Nintendo Switch 2

To start, Nintendo confirmed that the Switch 2 will support backwards compatibility with both physical and digital Switch games. However, they did mention that “certain” Switch 1 games might not work or be fully compatible with the new console. If Rockstar’s games work without issues, fans will be able to play Red Dead Redemption, L.A. Noire, and Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition on the Switch 2 from day one.

It’s unclear if playing Switch games on the Switch 2 will automatically improve graphics or performance without updates from developers. If there are improvements, fans might enjoy a stable 30FPS in games like the GTA Trilogy, which occasionally has frame drops. Since the collection received a major update, it already runs much better on the current Switch.

GTA+ support has also been worked on for the Nintendo Switch. This means GTA+ members on current-generation consoles could play games like L.A. Noire, The GTA Trilogy, and Red Dead Redemption on the Switch.

Will GTA 6 Be Launched On Nintendo Switch 2?

When it comes to new releases on the Switch, GTA 6 is almost certainly not an option. The Switch 2 is rumored to have power similar to the PS4, or maybe the PS4 Pro, which isn’t enough to handle Rockstar’s ambitious vision for the game. GTA 6 will first launch on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and later on PC. A Switch 2 version might only happen if the game is heavily scaled down, but that seems very unlikely.

How about Red Dead Redemption 2 & GTA V Portable?

A more likely Rockstar release for the Switch 2 is Red Dead Redemption 2. Some rumors suggest the game could be available when the console launches. Interestingly, one leaker who mentioned this also predicted the Switch 2 reveal date as January 17th—just a day off from the actual announcement.

It’s not impossible, though. Rockstar insider Tez2 revealed that Rockstar had plans to port Red Dead Redemption 2 to the Switch back in 2019. In fact, the Switch controller is even referenced in the PC version's files. Additionally, in September 2023, Red Dead Redemption 2 was age-rated for the Nintendo Switch in Brazil. Given that the Switch 2’s rumored power is comparable to a PS4, RDR2 seems like a strong candidate for the new console.

Nintendo has scheduled a Switch 2 Direct livestream for April 2nd, where they’ll reveal more about the console and announce new games. While the event will likely focus on Nintendo’s own first-party titles, big third-party games like Red Dead Redemption 2 could make an appearance. The gap between the console’s reveal and the Direct might be to give publishers time to announce their Switch 2 games. Interestingly, Take-Two’s financial report for the last quarter is coming early next month. Announcing Red Dead Redemption 2 for the Switch 2 could be a move to please investors.

GTA V, being less demanding than Red Dead 2, is a more likely candidate for the Switch 2. There’s been ongoing speculation about Rockstar potentially bringing GTA V to even the original Switch. In fact, someone tried to port it, but the results were low frame rates, as expected. Given the Switch 2’s more powerful hardware, it’s easier to imagine GTA V running smoothly on the new console.

It seems less likely for several reasons. With GTA 6 almost finished, Rockstar probably won’t want to expand GTA Online to another platform and continue its support. There’s a good chance GTA Online will no longer receive updates after GTA 6is released in 2025. However, Rockstar might release a version of GTA V without the GTA Online part, similar to how they removed Red Dead 1's online mode from PS4, Switch, and PC.

Additionally, GTA V is already the second best-selling game of all time, so there likely won’t be many Switch 2 users who haven’t played it yet. The new console doesn’t have the same 100+ million user base that the original Switch does, which means it may not make as much sense to bring the game to the Switch 2.

Rockstar Games has officially confirmed that the inaugural trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 will debut in early December. Since the launch of Grand Theft Auto 5 over a decade ago, fans have eagerly anticipated the next installment, making the news of GTA 6's existence last year particularly significant.

GTA 6 Trailer Release Date

Despite persistent rumors and leaks, Rockstar remained tight-lipped about the game's details. However, the company recently validated speculations by announcing the trailer's release to coincide with their 25th anniversary in December 2023.

Co-founder Sam Houser expressed gratitude to the fans for their support, emphasizing the pivotal role players have played in Rockstar's journey. He concluded the announcement by revealing the long-awaited news: "We are thrilled to share that the first trailer for the upcoming Grand Theft Auto will be unveiled in early December."

A new name for GTA 6?

Some enthusiasts might feel a bit let down that Houser didn't specify the exact date for the Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer release. Nevertheless, it's reassuring to have confirmation that the trailer will premiere in early December. The Game Awards 2023 is scheduled for December 7, which could potentially mark the trailer's debut, although it's more probable that Rockstar will choose a different day for the release. In any case, fans should keep an eye on The Game Awards in case the GTA 6 trailer is revealed by then.

What's intriguing is Houser's choice to avoid labeling the game as Grand Theft Auto 6, instead referring to it as the "next Grand Theft Auto." This could hint at an unexpected title for the upcoming game, although this remains uncertain. If this proves true, it wouldn't be the first time the GTA series has deviated from numerical titles, as seen with Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, both sequels to GTA 3.

The best GTA 4 feature that GTA 6 should have

A long-standing feature in the Grand Theft Auto series is the inclusion of cheat codes, which allow players to enhance the chaos within the game world. These cheats, activated through specific and sometimes complex controller inputs, empower players to unleash even greater levels of destruction. Cheats like invincibility and infinite ammo have become integral to the free-spirited and chaotic atmosphere that defines GTA games.

While cheat codes existed in other games, GTA distinguished itself by offering players unparalleled joy and spectacle in causing havoc. These cheat codes are deeply ingrained in the essence of the series, embodying the spirit of unbridled freedom that GTA games are known for. They are an expected feature in each game, and Rockstar consistently incorporates them.

In Grand Theft Auto 4, cheat codes underwent a clever modernization. Players could access protagonist Niko Bellic's cell phone and enter secret phone numbers associated with various cheat commands. Activating cheats through this in-universe method added a layer of immersion, granting players greater freedom to experiment. At the time of GTA 4's release, it was an early next-gen title, featuring an incredibly detailed version of Liberty City with unprecedented graphical realism. Watching the streets fill with law enforcement amid explosions while players strolled through unharmed was a truly awe-inspiring sight.

Why GTA 6 should get a morality system

Character Dynamics/Behavior With Other Characters

Leaked information about GTA 6 has revealed the inclusion of two playable characters, raising the possibility that Rockstar developers might incorporate a morality system. Similar to the approach taken in Red Dead Redemption 2 with Arthur Morgan, where low honor altered his demeanor in cutscenes compared to the more composed and compassionate Arthur with high honor, this system could entail behavior modifications and diverse interactions with other characters.

For a karma system to work as intended, it would require careful consideration. It would be unrealistic for characters with low karma to exhibit friendly and positive behavior towards others, whereas those with high karma or honor would naturally engage with other characters in a polite and respectful manner. Addressing these nuances vigorously would be crucial for the system's effectiveness.

In games featuring a morality system where players can harm NPCs, it's essential for immersion that these NPCs exhibit fear towards the player's character. When a player terrorizes a town or community, it's logical for civilians to recognize the threat and react by either stepping back in fear or trying to report the criminal's presence, similar to the bounties system in Red Dead Redemption 2. This adds a layer of realism and immersion to the game world.

Chance For More Endings

In Grand Theft Auto 5, the three available endings are determined solely by choices made in the final mission, rendering prior mission decisions and player actions irrelevant. In contrast, using Red Dead Redemption 2 as an example, Rockstar developers employed a morality system that directly influenced the game's ending. While it didn't alter the sequence of events, it did impact how those events unfolded.

If Rockstar intends to continue offering multiple conclusions in the Red Dead Redemption and Grand Theft Auto franchises, GTA 6 would be a logical choice. Allowing player choices and actions, including those during free roam, to shape the narrative would maintain the importance of player agency and contribute to the significant consequences mentioned earlier.

Impactful Consequences

In GTA 5, players have the freedom to engage in various criminal activities in the open world, leading to appropriate police responses, with aggressive officers pursuing players until they are subdued. However, the aftermath of these encounters is quickly forgotten.

In Red Dead Redemption 2, Rockstar ensured that players faced consequences based on their actions in free roam. Players could attain a wanted status, enduring it until time was served or bounties were paid off. While the essence of many Grand Theft Auto games revolves around unrestricted criminal behavior, introducing meaningful consequences could enhance immersion and create a world that feels vibrant and responsive. This would involve NPCs and law enforcement becoming aware of players' actions, adding depth to the game world.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is a Rockstar game... and similar to all other Rockstar games, it has cheats for players to play around with the game's world without having to worry about the lengthy grind. In this article, we would list out all Red Dead Redemption 2 Cheats PS4, Xbox, and PC.

1 - About Red Dead Redemption 2 Cheats PS4, Xbox, and PC

These cheats are pretty easy to access in general - you can go on a rampage with infinite ammo and heavy weapon at a moment's notice... however, there is a set of rules that you must take note of.

• No saves can be created while cheats are turned on.
• Achievements or Trophies are disabled the moment cheats are turned on.
• Cheats won't work unless you have bought a newspaper or examined one in-game.

2 - How to activate Cheats?

Head to Saint Denis, Valentine and Blackwater and pick up the Saint Denis Times, New Hanover Gazette and Blackwater Ledger respectively from the newspaper seller in town. Certain newspapers will only be available after you have passed a certain point in the story, and some cheats are actually locked off based on how far you have progressed. Because of this, you might want to finish the main campaign first to get the best experience.

You can also find various cheats in the open world, etched onto the surfaces in the environment as well.

These newspapers are dime a dozen... and if you have already beaten the game you should have plenty of money for them. Pick up all available copies and once you have done that, open your satchel, inspect and flip them over. Zoom to the bottom of the paper - if it has a cheat code, there would be a little tagline under an article contain a phrase. That phrase is what you have to type in to activate the cheat code.

#1. Grand Theft Auto Online

It's the best game to play online of Rockstar. Grand Theft Auto is the most famous and popular game franchise of Rockstar. The first game of this series, Grand Theft Auto, was released in 1997. After twenty-four years of development, this game company introduced sixteen games of GTA for PC and PS devices.

GTA Online is the latest version of this game series which was released on Oct 1st, 2013 for the first time. The PC gamers could play this game on April 14th, 2015. Up to now, the game developers have been adding new content to make this multiplayer adventure game more exciting.

This version of GTA lets players co-operate with online players to do heists, missions, earn money, and create gangs. You can also communicate with other players via in-game chat, in-game mic, or discord mic. GTA Online is one of the best Rockstar games online to play now. Apart from GTA Online, two other favorite versions, GTA San Andreas and GTA Vice City, also feature a multiplayer mode on PSP to allow players to play and enjoy the game with friends on PSP.

#2. Red Dead Online

Apart from GTA, RDR is another legendary and brand game of Rockstar. This game company developed the Red Dead series later than the GTA franchise. The first Red Dead game titled Red Dead Revolver was released in 2004. Up to now, Rockstar has produced and developed six versions of the Red Dead series.

Red Dead Redemption (2010) and Red Dead Redemption 2 (2018) are the two most-played versions of this series. However, Red Dead Online released in 2019 is also a must-try game on PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One. Like GTA Online, this action-adventure game also features multiplayer gameplay that lets Red Dead gamers co-operate to complete missions.

You can select the first or third-person perspective to explore this large open world. Before entering the plot of the game, you need to select a character and dress him up. Then, you can make friends with other online players and join them on Steam. Your gang can do missions and heists together, earn money, build camps, and get stronger in this game. It's also the most attractive content of Red Dead Online. Besides, RDR and RDR 2 also have a multiplayer game mode for gamers to enjoy them with friends.

#3. GTA Chinatown Wars And Liberty City Stories

These two Rockstar games online play free are available on iOS devices. Moreover, the PSP versions of these two games let six players connect and play together via Wi-Fi in the same area. Besides, if you play GTA Chinatown Wars on Nintendo DS and PS Portable, you can connect with friends via Rockstar Games Social Club.

However, you need to play on the multiplayer mode to use this online feature. Besides, six players in GTA Liberty City Stories online version have to stay pretty close to each other and use the Wi-Fi in the same area. It means that you cannot connect with friends in other districts or other countries. However, it's still a good game to play with your friends on the same street during quarantine time when you cannot gather.

In addition, GTA Chinatown Wars' players need to connect via Rockstar Games Social Club - a service by this game publisher. It lets Rockstar's gamers connect and communicate when they play some online multiplayer games. Rockstar Games have released this service for PS Portable, iOS, and Android platforms.

#4. Max Payne 3

Like GTA Chinatown Wars, Max Payne 3 is one of the best Rockstar games to play online now. You will also connect with your friends via the Social Club of Rockstar Games. Sixteen players can co-operate or compete with other online players in the multiplayer mode.

These players can also create crews to do in-game missions together. Each crew contains no more than five players. In addition, the online multiplayer mode also has a leaderboard. Online players can compete, defeat other teams, complete more tasks, and collect experience points to get a high position on that board.

#5. GTA The Ballad of Gay Tony

This game is a special version that lets players join the party mode. You can invite the friends on your friend list on Steam or Social Club to play this game with you. You can play this game on PC, PS3, and Xbox 360.

You can play the game if you have got GTA 4 and download the added content of The Ballad of Gay Tony. The story of this game related directly to the plot of GTA IV and GTA The Lost and Damned. It takes place in Liberty City. The online multiplayer mode has more activities for players to enjoy.

Those are the five best Rockstar games to play online now. To update the latest GTA game news as well as more game reviews and top lists, let's visit our website.

Despite its original release in 2013, GTA 5 is still one of the most purchased video games today, as well as one of the most played by the community, thanks above all to its content-rich and supported online section.

It is thanks to this vitality that we still see GTA 5 receive mods and improvements, including the latest one that makes the game look like the one that the modder OreoShaman has recently released: a mod that improves the general graphic quality of the game by incorporating ray tracing to its global lighting.

We are talking about 'GTA 5 Realism Beyond' and 'Reshade RTGI Presets Not Used RTGI Shader', a graphics mod and an effects pack that when combined give an even more realistic look if possible to the Rockstar game. In the video that you can see below, the potential of these modifications is clearly demonstrated, both in more cinematic shots and in other normal gameplay scenes.

New GTA 5 Mod Allows Every PC to Enjoy Realistic Graphics

OreoShaman recorded the video on a 32GB RAM computer with an i5-8400 processor and an RTX 2080 Ti graphics that also has a 970 EVO NVME M.2 SSD. Although, the modder explains that you do not need these technical specifications to use his mod pack because he has created 'Reshade RTGI Presets Not Used RTGI Shader' specifically so that players whose PC does not have these specs can also enjoy global lighting with ray tracing.

In fact, this mod allows you to modify the graphic options to achieve the different FPS rates, depending on whether the user prefers to see the game with greater fluidity or with better graphic quality. Resolution is up to the gamer as well, but what you can see in the video was achieved at 4K with 2160p resolution and 60 FPS.

HOWEVER, to download this mod you will have to visit the creator's Patreon, where you would have to subscribe for $15 USD (~Rs 1100) to get access to the mod itself along with the Presets pack. It's up to you to decide if the mod is worth it.

It will be a long time until Rockstar Games releases the next GTA game. The GTA franchise has undoubtedly played an important role in boosting the popularity of the open-world genre as well as laying the foundations for many games.

However, over the last few years, in the genre, there are many great games that have outshined the GTA franchise. Gamers today have plenty of great games to choose from. If you are one of those gamers that are waiting for GTA 6 to be released, here are 5 game titles that you can check out.

1. Yakuza: Like a Dragon

There are many things that the GTA franchise has done right: from the characters, the cinematic plot to the satire. However, there is one thing that the franchise can’t seem to get right, the combat.

On the other hand, the Yakuza franchise has managed not only able to offer a great, thrilling crime drama but also an engaging action game that focuses on combat.

It will be a challenging task for players to find games that can do combat better than this franchise. Yakuza: Like a Dragon, by all means, is a great game.

This is the franchise’s latest entry and brings to gamers an exhilarating experience right from the beginning.

2. Sleeping Dogs

Sleeping dogs was developed as a sequel to the True Crime franchise. Since it wasn’t as successful as expected, the franchise was put on ice. The name was switched to “Sleeping Dogs” after promotional material as “True Crime: Hong Kong” had already been released.

Although the characters of the game aren’t the most well-written or well-developed, the story and the combat manage to make up for it.

3. Mafia: The Definitive Edition

The original Mafia game was released around the same time as GTA III. However, the game chose to focus more on telling a great story rather than offering an expansive open-world game.

And with this move, the game was praised for its wonderful world-building and narrative. Therefore, the game’s remake was long overdue. Gamers were surprised by Hangar 13 and 2K.

Mafia: The Definitive Edition still keeps the charm of the original game while managing to offer gamers a fresh and exciting experience.

4. Watch Dogs 2

With what the game has managed to do, there isn’t enough praise for Watch Dogs 2. The game is responsible for a franchise’s revival as well as the publisher’s image makeover.

Watch Dogs got rid of the original’s self-serious tone and went for a funnier and more light-hearted approach.

And fans highly appreciated this move as the game became more likable and accessible.

5. Ghost of Tsushima

Ghost of Tsushima’s map isn’t that large compared to today’s standards. But it manages to leave players awestruck every time they play the game. There are so many icons on the map. And instead of being a distraction, all of them are great tools to help the player in the game.

GTA Online is a successful online multiplayer action-adventure game published by Rockstar Games, which provides players with an open world and lets them roam around the San Andreas map. 

To quickly level up, you can use either cash to buy levels or, the most common way, Reputation (RP). Besides boosting levels, RP also unlocks more interesting missions, more Heists, and more advanced equipment for your character. 

There are tons of ways for players to gain RP in the game. Take a look at the list below to see what they look like. 

Daily Objectives

Regularly, GTA Online gives out a certain number of missions for players to kill their time in the game, and those include Daily Objectives. Players can earn RP while they’re on the way to completing Daily Objectives. 

Adversary Modes 

Not only supply missions or Heists, playing in Adversary Modes can help you generate RP and level up too. Therefore, give those modes a try and see how many RP you can gain from them.

Bonus RP and cash activities

GTA Online refreshes its activities every week, each contains certain exciting features including discounts, bonus RP, and cash activities. Usually, the extra RP and cash can be doubled or even tripled at certain activities. 

Partner up/Crew

Playing a solo game sounds nice, but why don’t cooperate with others? This can help you gain more rewards than usual. So, players can find a Crew to join, or invite and team up with their friends and create their own Crew. 

Invest in businesses

When you have saved enough money to purchase the luxurious constructions like Warehouses or Bunkers, do it fast so that you can get used to how the business works as soon as possible.

Rockstar Games, the developer/publisher behind video game series such as Grand Theft Auto, is no stranger to controversies and scandals, whose products have been the target of large, well-known political and social campaigns that mostly focused on curbing violence in video games.

On the other hand, we owe much of the industry's current freedom to Rockstar's efforts to always push boundaries, making it possible to finally create games like GTA 5 without (much) contention. But the journey along the way has been far from smooth, with every release of the company creating headlines and backlash from decades ago.

Let's take a look at 6 times Rockstar has gotten itself in hot water for its depiction of some of the worst humanity has to offer in its games:

6 Times Rockstar Got Caught in Major Controversies

GTA and Violence (1998 and 2001)

The first controversy in which Rockstar became involved began with the arrival of the original GTA on the PlayStation 1 in 1998. The game had already been released on the PC without a fuss, but when it arrived at the Sony console a few months later it began to pick up the earliest detractors and critics for Rockstar.

This was because GTA was one of the first titles to not portray the player as the good guy, making him a villain who can run over people, kill, destroy whatever he wants, etc. The game's dark humor helped the game to get around some sensibilities, but things would then get worse.

The violence in GTA had already raised controversy in its simple 2D format, but the complaints would only increase when the franchise made the leap to 3D. The famous GTA 3 for PlayStation 2, the first in the series to have a 3D world in third-person, became the main target of groups against violence in games. The ability to catch prostitutes and beat them up to get money back was one of the biggest criticisms at the time.

Manhunt and Sadistic Murders (2003-2004)

Even when the controversy surrounding GTA 3 hadn't blown over, Rockstar still decided to take a step forward with the Manhunt series. As a criminal who has escaped the death penalty, you are thrown into a kind of macabre Reality Show, where the participants' goal is to survive and eliminate other competitors.

The game uses stealth elements to sneak around without being noticed and then execute your enemies in horrific ways with improvised weapons. The more sadistic-oriented violence in Manhunt guaranteed the game would receive negative attention, which it did.

But the bad press would get even more intense with what was to come in July 2004: A 17-year-old teenager killed his 14-year-old friend with more than 50 hammer blows in England, followed by a statement from the victim's parents that Manhunt was an influence on the crime. The police later ruled out the connection, saying the crime was motivated by theft to pay off a drug debt.

GTA: San Andreas and Hot Coffee (2005)

When complaints of violence about the GTA series seemed to be losing momentum in the face of its overwhelming popularity, a new scandal appeared. In 2005 a programmer found codes hidden in GTA: San Andreas for what would be a s.e.x minigame called Hot Coffee, which allowed the player to use commands to perform certain "actions".

Although the programming for the minigame was in the game, the characters remained dressed, and there were no versions of them without clothes. The minigame was not even accessible via normal means, but it still created a big stir around this issue which affected the age rating of San Andreas.

The title ended up being reclassified, from "Mature" (17 years old) to "Adults Only", a classification that would automatically ban the game from being sold in most video game stores. Rockstar quickly rounded up these versions of the game and released a second edition, without the code, allowing the game to go back on sale.

Bully and The Theme of Bullying (2006)

Seemingly without rest, Rockstar released another controversial new title in a short time, called Bully, which used elements of the open world of GTA within a school environment. The fact that the game is based on the theme of bullying raised many complaints from support groups for teenagers who suffer from the problem, but the content of the game is relatively positive.

The protagonist, Jimmy Hopkins, tries to deal with the problem of bullying at his new school and works to end it, even if at times he has to participate in it. Regardless, Bully ended up being banned in some countries on the grounds that it would be harmful to young people.

LA Noire and Exploited Employees (2011)

The production of LA Noire was among those similar games stuck in development hell, taking seven years to finally come out, for reasons that were never really clear. In 2011, an anonymous source, which claimed to be a former employee, made several complaints about Australian developer Team Bondi, responsible for the game that would be published by Rockstar.

According to him, employees worked a weekly shift of 80 to 110 hours, without weekends, in abusive conditions, and for very low pay. A list of more than 130 people who worked on the game was also provided, whose names were removed from the credits for having left the studio.

Former Team Bondi boss Brendan McNamara did not deny excessive working hours but did not comment much on the rest of the charges. In the same year, Team Bondi ended up closing.

GTA 5 and The Torture Scene (2013)

The most insane playable character in GTA 5 is Trevor, who is based on the players themselves for all the chaos they created in GTA. In a very controversial scene, however, Trevor needs to torture a person to obtain information, which has led many advocacy groups against the practice to issue criticisms against the game. Many reviews upon the game's release also complained about this scene.

Perhaps one of your reasons for making the leap to the new generation of consoles or upgrading your PC is in anticipation of the release of the long-awaited next installment of Grand Theft Auto, GTA 6. Rockstar has resisted mentioning Number 6 for many years as they continue to squeeze even more out of the different cross- and inter-generational versions of GTA 5.

When a new version of GTA 5 was announced for PS5 and Xbox Series X, many of us must have reacted with an audible facepalm, given that we expected to be able to play GTA 6 on the brand new next-gen consoles, which themselves will not be cheap.

But various issues, rumors and even statements from the voice actors who gave life to the iconic characters Michael, Trevor and Franklin seem to tell us that the release of GTA 6 would still be very far off into the future.

The Only Thing Confirmed is GTA 5 For Next-Gen

First, we must bear in mind that next year another version of GTA 5 will be released for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, a release that will come with several improvements and even exclusive additions, and that would serve as a bridge for a sixth installment that would still not come soon.

And if it is the case that Rockstar is going to invest a decent amount of money and resources in launching, yet another, version of GTA 5 for the new consoles, it will want to monetize this investment for at least a couple more years.

GTA 6: Back to Vice City?

It has been rumored for quite some time that Rockstar's chosen setting for GTA 6 would be a renewed and improved Vice City, a fictional city based on Miami, USA. If we go back to the end of last year, a Reddit post by user Fresh305954 noted that Rockstar was shooting some photos in Wynwood, an area of ​​Miami known for its colorful murals and unique visuals.

This can have several implications: Either this leak was false, or that Rockstar was still in the early stages of development for the sixth GTA game. At the moment, the fact that the company has not even hinted at the game tells us it might not even be in early development, especially when the pandemic could hold up pre-development process.

But the rumor that GTA 6 would be set in Vice City still makes enough sense, given that Rockstar has already revived iconic places like Los Santos and Liberty City in other games, leaving only Vice City without a remake. The fact that it is one of the fictional cities most loved by the community would give more reasons for it to come back.

Another rumor that was circulating is that the next GTA 6 would not only be focused in Vice City but also in other parts of South America as part of a game that would go with the code name "Project Americas".

What the Voice Actors are Saying

Another way to figure out whether the next GTA installment is close in the making is to look into what the three main actors of GTA 5 are saying. They have been quite vocal about the various rumors that have surrounded a possible GTA 6.

For example, Ned Luke, Michael's voice actor, told us to "not believe anything you see on the internet. If you hear it from Rockstar, then you know." He seems to hint that everything that has been rumored so far is pretty far from the truth.

On the other hand, Shawn Fonteno, the voice of Franklin, pointed out that "it’s a process to make these games ", hinting that there still is a lot to go before the game could even begin to be hinted at.

Finally, Trevor's voice actor, Steven Ogg, has indicated that fans need to "do the math" to know when the game will be released, suggesting that each installment usually takes an average of seven or eight years to make, which means the next one should be close to being presented to the public.

However, it has been 7 years since GTA 5 came out the same lack of news suggests the next one would still be far off. The current pandemic could have delayed the return of the series with the much-anticipated GTA 6 for at least a couple more years.

And finally, we have the input from Dan Houser, co-founder of Rockstar but no longer works for the company, which is quite worrying for the prospect of the next game to say the least; to him it is very difficult to develop a GTA game in the current unpredictable political climate that is undergoing in the United States.

This means that not only Rockstar developers have a technological challenge to overcome, but a socio-political one as well before being able to announce and release a video game that would carry even more hype and expectations than its predecessor.

As Rockstar continues to dedicate resources and manpower on updating GTA 5 Online, along with all the aforementioned reasons: next-gen GTA 5, ongoing pandemic, technological as well as narrative challenges, etc., the reveal of an even more significant game such as GTA 6 will agonize fans of the series for some time yet.

Everyone in the world of gaming knows the name of and the influence that Rockstar Games has gained in the video game industry, one of the most respected developers today. Almost every game by the company has been a masterpiece, so choosing the best games made by Rockstar is a pretty difficult task.

When thinking of Rockstar games the first thing that can come to mind is its flagship: Grand Theft Auto, but what we must all take into account is that the developer has other titles of the same caliber and quality as the GTA franchise.

That's why we GuruGamer would like to bring you this top 5 of the best games made by Rockstar from each of the company's 5 main franchises:

5 Best Games Made by Rockstar From Each of Its Franchises

1. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

It was difficult to choose a single Grand Theft Auto as the most important of this Rockstar Games franchise. Mentioning just one is difficult, but we decided on San Andreas as the most mythical GTA of the entire saga and one of the best games made by Rockstar, which was released on October 26, 2004, for the Playstation 2, Xbox, and Windows.

San Andreas incorporated at that time one of the largest maps seen in a video game, combining 3 cities: Los Santos, San Fierro, and Las Venturas. The game managed to reach almost 30 million units sold and over time reached an average score of 95 in Metacritic, and that is why we consider GTA San Andreas as the best Grand Theft Auto in the series.

2. Red Dead Redemption 2

It is the largest open-world video game known so far. The second edition of the legendary Red Dead Redemption also stands out for its graphic details, more than 50 missions, and the quality of the plot that is set in a midwestern story.

Playing an open-world title won't feel the same after you have finished Red Dead Redemption 2. Thanks to the evaluations of other players as one of the best games made by Rockstar, it has been able to sell more than 13 million copies for the PlayStation 4 alone in a short time, which can now be enjoyed on the PS4 and Xbox One.

3. Max Payne 3

Originally this franchise was not owned by Rockstar or Take-Two Interactive until May 2002. Take-Two bought the rights to the franchise from Remedy and 3D Realms. The third installment was the one that stood out the most, which was developed by Rockstar Vancouver, released on May 18, 2012, for Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.

The Max Payne franchise came with a solid 3rd installment that told us the story of an older and morally bankrupt Max Payne who is forced to accept a job offer as a bodyguard for a wealthy family in Brazil.

The game kept the essence of the previous Max Payne and brings a lot of innovations such as a multiplayer mode, which is something never seen in this franchise, and improvements to the bullet time to give that Matrix movie feel. In case you don't know what bullet time is, it is something similar to what we see in Red Dead Redemption with the Dead Eye System

Max Payne 3 was well received by critics with an average above 80, and this third installment which came out in 2017 had sold 3 million units, which was somewhat below Rockstar's forecasts but this is a game that is still fully recommended.

4. LA Noire

Although this game was developed by Team Bondi, it was distributed by Rockstar Games, and currently, after the end of professional collaboration due to disagreements with Bondi, Rockstar Games now own the rights to LA Noire. The game was released on May 17, 2011, for the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 platforms.

The game tells the story of detective Cole Phelps who will have to solve a series of crimes in Los Angeles in 1947, inspired by the film noir genre of the 40s and 50s. The game was well received by critics reaping an average of 90. The game provided good benefits for Rockstar's parent company Take-Two Interactive, granting them a 7.75% share increase on launch day.

LA Noire was well ahead of its time when it came to graphics, they used 32 high-definition cameras to capture even the smallest detail of the actors. This was fundamental in the game since facial expressions were the highlight when questioning a person in the game.

On November 14, 2017, Rockstar re-launched the game this time with improvements and remastered for current generation consoles. We hope that Rockstar will one day decide to develop a sequel to one of the best games made by Rockstar

5. Midnight Club: Los Angeles

Launched on October 21, 2008, for the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 consoles and set in the state of California, Rockstar brought us the fourth installment of this racing franchise developed by Rockstar San Diego in which they allowed us to go from being a novice in street racing to becoming the champion, with an open world ready to be explored in our favorite car.

The game was acclaimed back then for its good recreation of some of LA's most iconic sights and the fun you could have causing chaos in the night streets of Los Angeles. It had a multiplayer for 16 people where we were allowed to create our own races and it was well-received in terms of criticism obtaining an average of 80.

In the past, a lot of people have been banned from playing in Grand Theft Auto Online for cheating, despite no hack and cheat actions actually took place. Players have been calling out Rockstar for this, branding the detection system as “false positive”. Rockstar doesn’t believe those players, however, as they are challenging people to prove that the system is wrong. The prize money for “successfully recreate a way to trigger an incorrect ban from the system in GTA Online” is $10,000 – about 7 lakh.

According to a related website named HackerOne, this kind of bounty was already created a year ago for just GTA Online, and it has been running for a while since 2016. However, after the launch of Red Dead Redemption 2 for PC, Rockstar has decided to expand the program so that it could cover a wider variety of their games and software. The new program will accept bugs and vulnerability reports on a wider scale, in most of their online games, not just GTA online. Currently, the program supports GTA 5/Online, Red Dead 2/Red Dead Online plus its companion app.

It’s not that simple to join this program, however, as you would have to register in Rockstar’s private bounty program prior. There are some fairly strict rules about what to report so you would have to be careful. The minimum bounty for an issue is $150, however, it goes up based on the scale, complexity, and severity of the potential vulnerability. The top researcher on the list has been scoring multiple rewards ranging from $250 to $1k last year.

Many companies are doing this bug bounty program, not just Rockstar. Valve distributed about $840,000 last year for bug reports of Steam and other games made by them such as CSGO, Dota 2 and Team Fortress 2. Furthermore, the Incorrect Ban Bounty program of GTA Online is still active with the same prize money.

Follow the example of EA and Ubisoft, Rockstar Games is also getting a game launcher for PC. While we are not sure how they are going to compete with the big boys that have been in the business for years such as Steam, Epic Games or Battle.net, just to name a few, their first move seems to be quite effective.

Rockstar Games is going to give out a free copy of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas for PC within their launcher and add it to your Social Club account’s library. The developer doesn't reveal how long will it lasts, but a free copy of a game like Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is always worth a try.

Here are how you do it.:

1. Go to the download page of Rockstar Games Launcher: https://socialclub.rockstargames.com/rockstar-games-launcher.
2. Find the “Download for Windows” to download the launcher.
3. Install the program.
4. If you haven't had a Rockstar Social club account yet then you need to create one to log into the launcher.
5.  After you have logged in, click on the Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas banner to add the game to your library for free.

The most interesting thing about GTA games is that they allow players to interact and explore a non-linear open world and freely decide how they can play the game.

GTA: San Andreas is an installment of the GTA series. The game was released for PS2 in 2004 and PC in 2005 and is considered as one of the great games of all time by critics. As of 2011, it sold 27.5 million copies across the world and is still the best-selling PS2 game of all time.

Red Dead Redemption 2 has been a complete success on PC and now people are wondering: Where’s its online mode? Well, if things follow the plan, we should be expecting the online version today, on November 27th. Rockstar Games initially said that they would release Red Dead Online sometime in November, and there are just a few days left. CEO Strauss Zelnick also confirmed the fact that it is coming out at the end of this month. Check out some news update in the following video:

At first, we will be able to play RDO under beta phase. The publisher is expecting flaws, so don’t put your expectations too high. As for the features and modes to be in the game, we've known very little. However, here’s what Rockstar Games said to sum it up: Red Dead Online is based on RDR2 gameplay, enabling players to explore by themselves or with companies. Also, do expect to see constant adjustments and updates to further improve the gaming experience for everyone.

On Xbox One, Ultragamerz discovered that players are already unlocking RDO’s Achievements. Lots of them display a 0.01% completion rate, which very likely implies that testers are actually progressing in the game. By completing the game’ introduction, you will earn the achievement called "Breakout”. And as the matter of fact, 0.01% of the players have already achieved it. The achievement possesses a ball and chain image alongside the title, suggesting that players have to break out of something.

Furthermore, RockstarIntel found an image from Red Dead Online, which shows the intro scene featuring characters on a wagon and locked inside a jail cage. Hence, it seems that the very first mission from RDO is to break out and that all character creation, as well as other components, will follow that. Rockstar didn’t reveal too much about the upcoming release, but we should expect more details to come really soon.

Similar to GTA Online - GTA V, RDO is free for anyone who buys RDR2. Microtransactions are expected to be there since it’s very common to feature those in a product of Take-Two. GTA Online proved to be a huge success in the past and we know that Red Dead Online is expecting nothing less.

Grand Theft Auto developer Rockstar Games and its parent company, Take-Two Interactive, have recently been granted the right to search the houses of five individuals who allegedly created a cheat software that interferes with the online mode of Grand Theft Auto 5.

The cheat, known as “Infamous”, gives players the ability to do anything they want in the game, both in online and offline mode. They can have access to an unlimited amount of in-game money, as well as the best weapons and vehicles in the game. Should they wish, people using this cheat can even create a clone army of themselves. While this is entertaining for some, it severely affects the online experience of those who play fairly.

On September 21, the Federal Court of Australia issued a court order that gave Take-Two Interactive and Rockstar Games the permission to search the houses and vehicles of five people that are allegedly the creator of the Infamous cheat software. These five people are Cyrus Lesser, Christopher Anderson, Koroush Anderson, Koroush Jeddian, and an individual known as sfinktah.

The search party sent to carry out the search included two lawyers from the law firm Bird & Bird who represented Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive, as well as independent lawyers and a computer expert. This party had full permission to enter and search the property of the aforementioned individuals and copy or take any evidence, computers and other storage devices associated with the cheat.

Additionally, the court order froze all asset of the five suspects, physical or digital, including cryptocurrency. It reads: ““You must not remove from Australia or in any way dispose of, deal with or diminish the value of any of your assets in Australia (Australian assets) up to the unencumbered value of AU$286,609.80 (the Relevant Amount).” Naturally, the suspects are also forbidden from continuing to use or distribute the Infamous software.

Both Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive have not made any statement regarding this topic. One thing is clear, though, these companies take cheating very seriously.
