Want to Turn San Andreas Into Your Own Private Gotham? There’s a Mod For That.
Wouldn’t it be awesome to be Batman? I mean, without all of the angst, perhaps. And without the years of training. And the constant threat of bodily harm. And the… hmm. Okay, you know what? Forget being Batman. I just want the cool parts of being Batman. The Batmobile and the suit and the jumping…

Capping Off the Rampaging Tour of Liberty City, It’s Sonic
Promise, last one. We’ve had our fun. From R2-D2 (to his Skyrim-themed friend) to the Portal 2 multiplayer robots, we can only take so much of seeing cartoon or comic-relief characters going on a mass-murder rampage in Liberty City.

Watch R2-D2 Go on a Hilarious Death-Dealing Rampage in Grand Theft Auto IV
This clever Grand Theft Auto mod is pretty funny for the first 1:45 then HOLY SHIT does this little droid turn into an engine of destruction. And if you think that is hilarious, my God, turn off the annotations and wait until 3:43 for one hellacious surprise. Just cover your keyboard, or don’t be drinking…

Uncovered Vehicle List in Max Payne 3 Reads a Lot Like a Grand Theft Auto Fleet
Someone on GTAForums.com pried apart the files inside Max Payne 3 and found a vehicle list shot through with callbacks to past makes and models from the Grand Theft Auto series. There is an enormous thread going on both there and on NeoGAF, about the subject. Noting that this isn’t the first time Rockstar Games…
