GTA V‘s Security Cams Have Probably Seen Some Shit
Installed across all of Los Santos are a countless number of security cameras that quietly monitor everything that happens. And given that this is Grand Theft Auto, it’s pretty likely that they’re recording all sorts of wild things. Such is the premise of Abstract Mode’s new short, which gives us a security cam’s view of…

GTA Online Player Says Hi To 100 People, Is Murdered Almost Every Time
What happens when you try being friendly to fellow GTA Online players? Chaos, bloodshed, and rudeness, that’s what. Last month, ComedyKnife decided to perform an experiment within GTA Online.

Scooby-Doo Remade In GTA V
Chop, no! What have they done to you!

CultureParody Game NotGTAV Vanishes From Steam After Strange Copyright Claim
NotGTAV, which is not GTA V, was a hit when it released on Steam last week. Then it disappeared. The game is back now, a short-term victim of what seems to have been a bogus copyright claim. Here’s what we know: NotGTAV, the cheap, funny parody game that was donating money to charity, disappeared from…

The Opening of Fresh Prince In GTA V
All classic TV show intros deserve a GTA V version. And The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air is the perfect candidate: We all watched the series back then (it’s still funny!) and it’s set in the same city as Grand Theft Auto V Will Smith is replaced by Franklin and we are in Rockford Hills in…

The Opening of Arthur In GTA V
The cute intro of the classic 90s cartoon Arthur is anything but cute when it’s recreated in GTA V’s environment. YouTuber Merfish’s work is more like a horrible nightmare with heads stuck into the roof and a giant Franklin stomping through San Andreas. Obviously not all of us remember the show’s opening, as it’s not…

Grand Theft Auto V is not $20 on Steam right now. Despite multiple misleading listings on GTA’s Steam franchise page (they’re for cash card bundles), it’s still at regular price. Suddenly last week’s GTA price shenanigans look less benign. [Update: The issue has been resolved. Valve says it was a “technical error.”] GTA V’s price…

The Opening of Full House Remade In GTA V
Michael, Trevor, Franklin, Lester. They’re one big family after all, just like the cast of Full House. Merfish and his friends recreated the classic show’s intro, and while I don’t remember anyone falling off a truck or getting hit by a cable car, they really did nail the whole thing. Check out the side-by-side comparison…

GTA Truck Pulls Off Crazy Stunt, Sticks Landing
I’ve seen my share of fancy sports cars making ridiculous flips in GTA V. But I’ve never seen anything like this. The video above showcases a fantastic stunt jump performed by BlackSmoke Billy. Essentially, the semi grabs some air, the trailer unit detaches from the cargo and makes a front flip on its own, lands,…

Mods Bringing Old GTA Cities To Grand Theft Auto V
A recent breakthrough in the Grand Theft Auto V modding scene has opened up a world of possibilities. Or worlds, I suppose I should say. GTA V modder NTAuthority has come up with a method of adding custom maps to the PC version of the game using a client called “FiveM.” It’s still early right…

Gordon Freeman Comes To GTA V
And he’s brought his gravity gun with him. The gravity gun is neat and all, but it’s the first-person crowbar stuff that feels more Half-Life. Especially when you’re getting some back on those soldiers for abseiling into Black Mesa and shooting the place up. You can get the Gordon Freeman skin here

A Mad Max Car Chase, Recreated In GTA V
The ingenuity of Grand Theft Auto players always delivers. Though GTA V doesn’t have a very good selection of post-apocalyptic gear, it does have a ton of cars and a nice film editor. Equipped with this, TheSlothsDen manages to capture the spirit of a high octane Mad Max car chase pretty well in GTA. Instead…

Sorry About This GTA V Mod, PETA
We’ve heard tales of cats rampaging through GTA V’s city of Los Santos. But what about people rampaging by way of cats? Like: using a gun that fires fuzzy little monsters instead of bullets? Once again, your wish is a modder’s command. YouTuber taltigolt published a video last night showing Franklin rampaging through Vespucci beach…

GTA V Mod Overhauls Police, Calls In The Army
The wanted levels in GTA V kind of suck. You’ve got a police force that is half-psychic, half robocop. When you hit max stars, there are no tanks anymore. What gives? Enter modders.
