The Sopranos' Opening, Remade In Grand Theft Auto V
Tony Soprano and his family might not live on the West Coast, but 8-bit Bastard's remake of the classic opening of the show in Grand Theft Auto V makes me want to load up the original again.
Terminator 2's Truck Chase Scene, Remade in GTA V
It's a bit strange no one's thought to do so it, because the canal labyrinths of Los Santos are perfect for some Terminator 2 action. But here it is. YouTuber John Chapman and his friends made a pretty neat shot-for-shot remake of the movie's famous truck chase scene.
If Grand Theft Auto V Were Made In The 80s
It would still be awesome! Here's an isometric, Commodore 64-style recreation of some Grand Theft Auto V action by the talented MajamiHiroz with some superb 8bit music added.

North Yankton—the snowy opening to GTA V—was pretty much gone after the prologue, locking us out from ever returning. But fortunately for us and thanks to a video shared by CVG, there's a legit (albeit glitchy) way to return there.

No need for a mod to go Ghost Rider and do justice in Grand Theft Auto V. Just a few tricks here and there, and you are good to go—Los Santos just got a new spirit of vengeance. There's even a tutorial out there, and the only thing missing is Johnny Blaze's chain.

Aaand nailed it. That's one unorthodox GTA V stunt move, but it works! XR33P3E11X has more of these in his excellent montage video. Now do a perfect drop from similar heights into a half pipe while riding a bike. That would look neat.

That was probably a bad idea. These silly GTA V mansions. Although there are several solutions for this, lifting it out with a cargo helicopter and not dropping it into the pool would be the funniest.
