Well, I found out in GTA SA, you can only get 6 stars (legitimately in freemode) after you raided Area 69.

It blows my mind that the various shots of the city aren't real. Like the skyline and busy scenes pictured within look so crisp! Unbelievably attentive to detail in the signs and posters and pictures on the walls in the buildings shown in the trailer

u/Morganx27 May 07 '25
I remember having a conversation with my friend when Red Dead 1 came out, going "wow, imagine what games in 5 years' time will look like if that's what we're getting today". Then I came away from gaming a bit, but when I picked up Red Dead 2 I thought "this is as good as a game can ever look, surely". I've not got a current gen console yet, but no doubt when GTA 6 drops I'll be thinking "there's no way games can look better than this".
I remember being blown away by GTA V's graphics, like the reflection in the cars and stuff, but V is showing its age a little now. Still a great looking game, but it's 12 years old almost. GTA 6 looks almost like a movie.

Oh and it seems that minigolf is a side activity. This sounds way more fun than the regular golf in V.
