Amen kyōdai.

Yeah, I noticed that tooā€¦ They werenā€™t in the original Ishin, right? Y0 came out after that. Anyways, happy to see more of those three. Loved them in Zero.

Yet another reason to envy you PS5 players. :sob:

Not until 2024 though, so hopefully the PS5 situation will be a bit better by that point.

Naw, I meant that itā€™s an exclusive. :slightly_smiling_face:

this week, Just Dance announced more songs for JD2023 on their YouTube channel. iā€™m surprised they have a BTS song on there (considering theyā€™re literally the most successful boy band in kpopā€¦so you know thatā€™s got to be expensive). also, another Taylor Swift song has been added. it doesnā€™t even look real, since JD has been lacking in Swiftā€™s songs for years. itā€™s nice to see them filling that void.

plus thereā€™s a new interface in JD2023 and a new remote co-op mode. thatā€™s neat. thereā€™s no word on if that requires Xbox gold, but i hope it does not

Real people play just dance by loading up a YouTube video anyway

Anywho. Death loop is coming to Xbox September 20th with a brand spanking new update across all platforms.

No article on this yet but still, this could actually be footage from an early build of GTA 6. And no, no Rick Astley this time :stuck_out_tongue:

Insane that something like this could happen at R*. Disgruntled employee perhaps?
Also surprised these videos didNā€™T get taken down, same with the thread on GTAforums.

Iā€™ve heard, apparently from the hacker themselves, that they hacked Rockstar employees Slack accounts, which is some kind of internal network for employees to message each other and share content. This isnā€™t the first time Slack has been used to leak content either

Not sure if it will top the Half-Life 2 leak (almost killed Valve) but this is still up there

I think the leak is surprisingly big compared to previous GTA leaks or previous leaks about specific video games. However, the leak is fairly small compared to what GTA VI will eventually be.

In my opionion, the most interesting bits of information from the leak are, that the rumors about a male and a female protaganist seem to be confirmed now. And that the new title will at least partially be set in Vice City.

But there is so much more, that we donā€™t know yet.

  • Who are the protagonists? What is their story, what are their aims?
  • What will the whole map look like? Will it be just the city (like in GTA IV) or do we get more areas around it (like in GTA V)?
  • What kind of missions will we get?
  • What will the online mode be like?
  • How will the game be monetized?

So yes, it is a big leak compared to previous leaks. But thereā€™s still so much left, that we donā€™t know yet. Surely Rockstar arenā€™t pleased that all this got public. However, I donā€™t think the leaked footage will hurt them very much.

EDIT:
Iā€™m referring to the leaked video above. If the leaker actually has more data and makes it public, maybe even source code and early builds, then this will be a much bigger deal for Rockstar.

Ugh, yeah, no thanks.

At this point R* / Take2 should at least be happy that only footage has been leaked on the internet and not actual builds.

apparently, the hacker has more. given they appeared to dish out 10k lines of source code, i wouldnā€™t be surprised if they had an early build somewhere. then again, iā€™m no expert on this stuff.

iā€™m reading gtaforums like:


feel bad for the devs.

edit - this is from the hacker:

Hi,

Here are 90 footage/clips from GTA 6.

Its possible i could leak more data soon, GTA 5 and 6 source code and assets, GTA 6 testing build.

4 Likes

Yep, R* / Take2ā€™s only hope now is that the build itself doesnā€™t end on the internet for everyone to download.

I should clarify that I made that statement in regard to the leaked videos.
If the leaker actually has GTA 5 and 6 source code and assets and makes them public, this will be a much bigger deal for Rockstar.

theyā€™ve already dropped 10k lines of source code. that canā€™t be good.

Take Two hitsquads are probably already on their way to this guy and his entire family tree to make them disappear for good under mysterious circumstances. Give it a few weeks till the first thing we hear of this hacker is his body being found somewhere in the Florida swamplands. (Thus confirming Vice City as the new setting).
