Got any alternatives? This series is dead lol

Saints Row's the closest, although it hasn't had a new entry since 2014 (there're rumors of a new game, however).

Saints Row has yet to sell out unlike GTA V. At least at the scale of V.

Say what you will about 3 and 4, at least it tried to establish it's own identity from GTA.

And the identity that Saints Row established is that it is fun and goofy like GTA used to be.

Also they mostly nailed it.

Define mostly.

I found 4 to be absolute perfection with humor, open world, gameplay and lore. 3 was an appetizer of what Saints Row could be capable of.

Saints Row IV was the best GTA game, best Matrix game and the best Mass Effect game of its generation.

Hey Kinzie you wanna fuck?

Best superhero game ever released. Especially since it originated as an DLC and April Fool's joke. Only, the joke is actually good.

Trevor is the best character in GTA V but I thought the ending were you kill him was the best.

Saints Row IV is the culmination of a developer that played GTA III on PC with a +22 trainer.

Saints Row 1 and 2 was a refined GTA San Andreas.

Saints Row 1 and 2 were shit.

I found Trevor to be exaggerated as a psychopath. He was certainly more fleshed out compared to Micheal and Franklin. But not as crazy as advertised.

I'd argue that Micheal was more psychological than Trevor.

I actually thought the ending where you killed Michael was the best one. It felt like the everything coming full circle.

the only issue with 4 was focusing on two dead characters being Jhonny Gat and Kinzie. both characters suck and 4/gat out of hell focused heavily on them, GoH is fan treat but at least in 4 they kind of give a reason for kinzie to exist while gat had his questionable death in SR3 retconned because fans of the VA bitched.

Saints Row 1 and 2 were shit.

the retarded grinding? yes, the rest? not really no. SR2 started going whacky when they noticed SR1 was copying GTA too much.

Yeah but Kinzie wants to fuck.

It sounds like GTA Online's code is so simplistic, that it can't even efficiently analyze lines of code required to run.

Remember, this is a multi-million dollar company.

If he gets banned for fixing their code, I'm going to laugh in disbelief.

Gamers Think Next-Gen GTA V Has Been Delayed

Imagine your next gen console being so deprived of quality games that you are getting worried that the 3rd release of GTA V might be delayed.

It's also cute how I'm seeing people think the PS5 version is going to have a ton of new shit when this "delay" is more likely just because nobody actually has the fucking console to even buy the game anyways.

Not surprising at all considering GTA Online is so unsecure that 75% of the people playing it have advanced mod menus that just kick you or close your game if you report them for cheating.

If they're so desperate for GTA V, just pop it into your next gen console and play.

Aside from more memory and money, I fail to see why GTA V has to be re-released. It'll be the same game with slightly enhanced visuals and the same botched code with GTA Online.

Even worse, this would just segment the player base for the existing consoles. I doubt they will do cross-play. And the cross-progression with GTA Online will likely be axed within a year or so.

If Todd Howard can sell you Skyrim ten times, you can bet Rockstar are going to try.
