The Grand Theft Auto Version of Top Gear Is A Blast To Watch
A few fans are putting custom GTA cars to the test in a digital game show, and it’s become one of my favorite things on YouTube. Hosted by Hampyro – Comedy Gaming Channel, the entire thing is a spoof on Top Gear. Every episode has a schtick, known as a “challenge,” which the contestants must…

GTA V’s Ramp Truck Destroys All The Cars
Hey, it’s BlackSmoke Billy! The master of dumb GTA V vehicle action returns with RAMP TRUCK. Rockstar probably wishes this was an actual in-game truck right about now. RAMP TRUCK was made using a trainer and a tweak to the game’s handling so “the cars would fly higher”. Good idea. (via Laughing Squid)

The World’s Smallest Car Is Perfect For GTA V
The Peel P50 three-wheeled microcar, which is the smallest production automobile in the world, certainly won’t stop the GTA V train, but it’s pretty much good for everything else. Traffic jams are no longer a problem. There’s no need to get out of the car at home and since it’s smaller than shrub hedges, and…

Brave Man Plays Every GTA Clone He Can Find On The App Store
Holy moly. There are a TON of hilariously bad if not somewhat broken GTA clones on mobile. YouTuber Jerma985 took the bullet for us and actually played through a bunch of those mobile knock-offs. You can see him wrestle with and laugh at these games in the video below. SHOCKINGLY, many of these games are…

GTA Online Crew Goes All Out With Recruitment Ad
Meet Los Demonios. They are a GTA Online crew that is looking for new blood. I’ve seen my share of GTA Online crews who do some intense roleplay, but this gang’s recruitment ad takes the cake: Not only did they put in the effort to make a nice cinematic trying to woo prospective brothers and…

Captain Planet Saves The Day In GTA V
Captain Planet was the only 90s edutainment show that had enough charm to fit into the heavy line-up of Saturday-morning cartoons. And we probably all remember its intro. If not, Merfish’s perfect GTA V version, including an environmental-friendly Trevor and all the Planeteers, will help to bring back memories. So, with Captain Trevor Planet on…

GTA V Players Find Cool New Bigfoot Secret
The legend of Sasquatch just got hella trippier thanks to an awesome recent discovery made by the GTA community. About a week ago, a curious GTA V update dropped. Some players noticed something fishy about a new achievement titled “Cryptozoologist.” It was all in the flavor text: “You unlocked all animals for use in Director…

The BBC’s Grand Theft Auto Movie Was Bad
I had high hopes for the BBC’s Grand Theft Auto docudrama, The Gamechangers, which aired last night (and is now available on iPlayer to UK viewers). Here was the BBC spending what looks like quite a lot of money on a film about video games, and getting people who really knew about the games industry…

Rockstar’s Salty Response To The BBC’s GTA Movie
Oh shit. For those of you that don’t know: today, BBC Two launched the broadcast of The Gamechangers, a movie starring Daniel Radcliffe and and Bill Paxton that takes a look at the controversy surrounding Grand Theft Auto and violent video games in the early 2000’s. Sounds like a cool concept, no? Except Rockstar isn’t…

CultureGrand Theft Auto V Delorean Travels Back In Time
This isn’t just any Delorean. It’s the Delorean from Back to the Future—time travel functionality included. The Back to the Future time circuits mod adds a script to Grand Theft Auto V that lets you prime a Delorean (a separate mod, which you can grab here) for actual, factual, fictional time travel. Check it out…

What Happens When GTA Online Players Band Together To Stop The Train
Ten brave GTA Online players line up with their favorite cars in a tunnel. A train looms in the distance. Can they stop it? Maybe not. But what happens in this clip by Redmar Belle instead is hilarious. Pure, sweet chaos. The very spirit of GTA, captured in a few seconds. Probably not surprising, given…

First Trailer For BBC’s Movie About The Battle Over GTA
Man, seeing Daniel Radcliffe with a beard sure is strange. What you’re seeing above is the first teaser for the upcoming BBC movie about the old-school GTA controversy back in the early 2000’s. Remember Jack Thompson and that entire thing about banning violent video games? Yeah. It’s about that. Daniel Radcliffe plays Sam Houser, whom…

GTA V Player Dodges The Law With Sick Sticky Bomb Stunts
This man elevates sticky grenades into a dang art form. GTA cops simply cannot stop salisburymistake, who has created a montage of high-speed-getaways that are the embodiment of “cool guys don’t look at explosions.” My favorite moments are the ones where salisburymistake skids past bodies that are flying midair, sometimes even knocking into them as…

Grand Theft Auto Would Make for a Cute Anime
Doraemon is one of Japan’s most beloved anime. Grand Theft Auto is a hugely popular video game series. Put them together, and you get this. This was created by an artist named En, who drew this series because Doreamon is his favorite cartoon and GTA is his favorite game. He did not specify which Grand…

Someone Made A Documentary About GTA V‘s Wildlife, And It’s Great
The creatures of GTA V all lead secret lives that we often never get to see while playing. They hunt. They eat. They try to survive. 8-BIT BASTARD and Chaney555 tap into all of that with their latest GTA documentary, “Onto The Land.” It’s an impressive 15 minute video that took 6 months to research…

The Pokémon Anime’s Intro In GTA V
God save all the regions of the Pokémon universe with Trevor in it as a trainer. Youtuber Merfish recreated the original 1997 anime’s opening with GTA V characters, and the only cute thing in it is Michael dressed up as Pikachu. There’s also a side-by-side comparison: To contact the author of this post, write to:…
