I'm having a feeling that GTA 6 will be so massive in disk space requirements it'll force plenty of consoles to be "only one game at a time". I'm sure a lot of people will enjoy that nonetheless, much like they enjoy buying ~~FIFA~~ EA Football <current year> every year and spending real money on whatever bullshit microtransactions are in place to get their dream player for their team.

It all leaves me reminded that any sense of Rockstar being in any way countercultural is surely an ancient, unfunny joke by this point.

Spot on.

Remember when the first Animal Crossing came out and it straight up gave you a memory card because its save file literally used the entire thing?

GTA 6 physical copies prolly gonna come with an SSD just so it can be installed.

I've got a couple of mates that only play fifa. They buy the new ones asap, they buy the new console to play them. They love that shit.
