Kept you waiting huh? I present to you - my biggest project to date: The entire history of the Grand Theft Auto series, from the formation of DMA all the way up to the current state of GTAOnline. This series has a rich history, and one that I felt deserved no compromise - which is why I spent the last 4 weeks straight researching, writing, and editing to bring you what I feel is the most complete overview of the series. To give you an idea of how much work into this one, I captured over 6 Terabytes of 4K footage, wrote a 60+page script, and managed to watch the entire 19 seasons of Family Guy in the background... gotta say... the later seasons aren't as bad as I remembered them being - still fun to watch. For those of you wondering about Resident Evil Village, Mass Effect, and Returnal - yes those are all planned still. I just finished REVillage yesterday and am working on a comparison now. Mass Effect is next. Returnal coverage is delayed because my PS5 completely bricked on me while playing (it's been sent to Sony now for repairs - super annoying.....) Stay tuned for more coverage of all the latest games! Schedule will return to normal now :)
I am excited to watch this. For me GTA vice city was a life changer it was so modern when I played it. Back then i used to play IGI and Stornghold Crusaders. I know its asking a lot but can you do a complete history of IGI.
Your documentary skills are insane. The fact that what you created is free on TH-cam is mind boggling. You pushed the bar, and you should be proud of that
I’m just watching this on the first part and first gta and I was thinking what really sold me on this was the vice city one and the radio stations cruising.
for real, This documentary is a master piece, man, some of the few documentary that tell us a life a game's company come trough, As we build a life on their game, rockstar build a life and still alive till today, thank god and thank you Rockstars!
You are a really good indie documentarian. Maybe the history channel called the history and origin of our favorite video games. I actually think you could be doing a show on one of the big streaming companies since it seems they're always desperate for new original content
I had a DOS based cd player, it'd load to memory, and you could exit and play a DOS game like DOOM with it on, but GTA for sure being able to just load it and shuffle is crazy for the time. It'd be like asking for your music directory, or streaming playlist today and have it play in game. I think people would comprehend that comparison anyways.
It seems like such a small thing now, but playing the original GTA on PC, you could put a music CD into your computer and the in-game radio in the car would play a random song from the CD in place of the radio station. As a kid, it was utterly amazing and blew my mind!
Damn dude I forgot about that! of course I never really got into the GTA games until GTA3 came out like most everyone else, but I do respect what those games were the groundwork for immensely. Once GTA3 came out all bets were off, I became a fanboy for sure. I 100%'d GTA3, Vice City and San Andreas a few times over the years.
25 minutes in, the documentary is simply amazing and you can immediately see how much effort was put into this! This'll be the best "History of GTA" video on YT without any doubts
By the length and the quality of this documentary I can tell that a lot of passion and research went into this. Thanks for over 2 hours of GTA nostalgia and infotainment!
The longest vid i've ever watched on YT (not just playing in the background lol) and i've watched tons of long stuff, but most vids are like 40 mins max. Totally worth every second of it! Now i feel like a GTA expert, lol
I'm so old I played every one of these games on their release aside from GTA:London which I wasn't able to pick up till much later. When GTA 3 was released it was astounding. It's difficult to explain to folks what a huge impact GTA 3 actually made on the industry as a whole. There really weren't any games at all that were open world and 3D at the time. It was really the first time you saw that games and entertainment could be limitless. GTA games will always be a day 1 purchase for me.
@Cactuss Don't be sad about the great moments in gaming history you weren't even alive for . Us Boomers will be long gone and dead when your enjoying 80c summers and feasting on bug burgers . Your so winning. :)
I don’t care what it takes but everyone who watched the gta vi trailer needs to see this video. It’s like a spiritual journey connecting the dots with everything that’s happened so far.
I gotta say, I’m not even really into gaming, consoles, PCs etc etc. But I clicked on this, semi-at random, and... wow, I watched the whole thing. It was better than many, many movies I’ve seen lately. Seriously, the amount of work you must have put in to produce such a comprehensive history of the GTA saga is mind-blowing, and could legit be released as a documentary or even movie on a Netflix-type platform. The scripting, production, the way you bring thing full-circle...... a 5* standing ovation is deserved! And this all coming from a non-gaming type o’ guy!
Major props to Nick for not including spoilers. Most people don't care as these games are nearly 20 years old, but there's a surprising number of folks who've never played SA or even GTA IV
I mean, I'm a person who never played any Fallout or Dragon Age game, since I was busy replaying Mass Effect for the 5th time at the time, so I guess there are such people out there, but not playing through San Andreas at least once would be a huge hole in any gamer's resume.
Those are the only 2 i havent played. I put countless hours into all the others. Still have the original GTA 1 and 2 on PS1. But thanks to this video i just bought and installed both SA and IV on my Xbox One. I know nothing about them outside of this video and the memes. So thanks Nick!!
I've watched this several times now, and it gets better each time. Given the amount of time spent playing these games, the awesome memories, this documentary is incredibly special to me. THANK YOU!
Been playing GTA since the age of 13 in 1997 until today at the age of 37, played every title, apart from 1 or 2 expansions, seeing them early games bought on a massive wave of nostalgia, GTA has come a long way. This was a top documentary, thank you.
Literally exactly the same for me. Born in 84. Played every single title except for some handhelds. Did you used to play 1 on high school computers? That was fun. Then alt+tab like a boss to not get caught.
Same here I've played every GTA game except for GTA Advance and Chinatown Wars. I remember being 11 or 12 and first starting up GTA 3 and just being blown away and then again having that same feeling the first few minutes I played GTA 4. I still play GTA 5 to this day, but mostly single player (really miss single player expansions) When ever a new GTA game comes out its always one of the most exciting moments in my life and I spend days binging them on launch.
Gotta love when you find a gem documentary that isn't riddled with ADs that ruin the experience and the creator of the content is genuinely doing the documentary outta love for the information they are presenting.
they have a lemmings statue in dundee, although RS North is now in edinburgh there should be a gta one too. the scottish references in all the gta games will go over many people's heads
I think GTA4’s police interactions were the most realistic. The fact they aren’t alerted to crimes in alleyways and unpopulated locations where there are no witnesses was nice compared to GTAV’s psychic cops.
There’s something about San Andreas’ design that makes it feel larger than GTA V. I’m hoping they incorporate that into the next entry, and make it a Multi city state.
I think it's a combination of factors. San Andreas' design seemed to have morr character in its design(for me at least) and you also had more environment variety (Three different cities, country side, country towns, deserts).
I can't believe GTA V came out in 2013. I still play it to this very day. Amazing documentary skills. It's rare to find such a long video that is so easy to watch. You got a sub.
I grew up playing GTA 3, Vice City, and SA as a kid. I have a friend I met on the old "Multi Theft Auto Vice City" mod for PC which was a mod to make it online multiplayer that I met in 2004 and still talk to this day. Just played GTA 5 for the very first time a couple weeks ago on PC. It's an incredible game. The 1st person is really awesome. Trevor is my favorite character out of the entire franchise. I haven't played online yet, but I have been modding story mode to tweak a few things such as adding more missions, heists, police rebalance, realistic weapons (AKM, M4A1, RPD), Finite Cops, etc. It seems to me gamers are so spoiled that it's like that boy from Harry Potter who is angry he only got 35 birthday gifts instead of 37.
I am so glad to searched about a GTA history. This is one of the best videogame documentary I ever watched, and I am in the mid right now. Curious about your other documentaries. This is top notch!
I honestly, can't believe, that it has been 10 years since the last GTA entry. It feels like it's been so long, I really hope they can produce something amazing in 6, the wait has been too long and if it falls on its face, I don't know what will happen to this beloved game series.
There’s so many other alternatives like Watch Dogs, Yakuza and other games that are like GTA, The reason GTA was so popular was because it was unique and there wasn’t many games that could compare to GTA So it might be hard for GTA 6 to have as much success as the other GTA’s
@@RiceCooker-ge2tethey could absolutely go beyond and more. Red dead 2 is the best game of all time for me and it’s set in 1899 imagine a modern world. They can also take things from gta San Andreas that made it fun like the workout/weight system. Learning new moves. Basketball etc
Oh it won’t fail. IV and V have plenty of critics. Leaning on online and waiting 12 years in between major releases has left a sour taste in many mouths. But we’ll all buy it. I never thought V was all that great story wise but it was a hell of sandbox for the sixty bucks. I got far more than my moneys worth. VI will do just fine.
We (the die hard consumers) will still buy it and play. But they’ve waited far too long and based on the trailer for GTA 6, I’m not too impressed. Looks like It’s just a new storyline, but same stuff. I was hoping they’d do something like make it multi-city.
Round of a applause. LOVE THE DOC, Everything you added and put together goes so well. You nailed it from the history start till what we are right now. Cant wait to see more of this series.
I never personally saw the "grinding" if you will in Vice City to be all that bad to fully complete the game. Yes, many of the side missions felt a little tedious, but that game in its entirety was a lot of fun. Arguably one of the best GTA games ever made.
It wouldn’t be as good if it didn’t take place in the 80s. If any game needs a ground-up modern remake, it’s Vice City. Soundtrack should remain unchanged. It has a ton of bangers.
@King Slayer Bruh, that would single handedly make Rockstar bankrupt. They can't sell the same game forever, they know that. Just be a lil bit more patient.
I can't watch this video without clowning on you for calling Claude "Cloud" 100 times lmao. Absolutely amazing documentary man, i appreciate your insane amount of work for this huge video.
Absolutely loved watching this - thank you for being so thorough and going into so much effort to get relevant clips and so on, I can't even imagine how much work went into this video.
Played San Andreas for 30+ hours back in the day and never got past the train, so seeing the storyline in this video makes me really want to play it again
i watched your 2 hour documentary in one sitting just like i would a movie! your massive work is equally as impressive as rockstar's! GTA is truly one of, if not the best video game series ever made!
Nick, my dude, you smash these out with "A" grade production quality, this video is massive and I watched it all, what a champ, you deserve more subs man.
I still remember how excited I was the day I bought the original GTA On its release day from Big W , it cost me $47AUD. This game has and still does have the best soundtracks ever and I still have GTA1 & GTA3 soundtracks on my current playlist👊🏻😁. Great upload my friend👊🏻😁🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🇦🇺 Edit - also vice city soundtrack is one of the best but that goes without saying , And the Scarface feel was the icing on the cake😄
Agreed on how good the soundtrack is. I was so impressed with original GTA's soundtrack that I recently emailed the composer of most of the songs, thanked him, and to my surprise received a lovely reply. Nice bloke.
@@macpac22 That's not how it works lol I work in this field buddy, technically it didn't took 9months. They re-used the code, made a few changes and bam. Educate yourself lol
@@aurelianspodarec2629 it took 9 months. Not sure what part of that you dont understand. Irrespective whether they re-used code or not it took 9 months. New location, new story, new characters, new cars, new peds..what game doesnt borrow code. The fact they still got it out in 9 months using prior code is still unbelievable.
Awesome documentary! When I saw the length of this video I thought there’s no way I’m watching this whole thing. I actually watched half and came back to watch the rest. That’s extremely rare for me with a TH-cam video. Really great Job!
Somebody give this man an award, amazing documentary. I remember back when G4 was a thing, i always wanted to watch a History of GTA. That wouldn't have come close to this.
GTA Vs Los Santos is amazing!!! I live in WI and spent 4 months in LA (January to April 2022) after playing GTA V for 7 years and it was unreal to spent that much time there and see so much that reminded me of the game.
GTA 4 will always be the best, the leap was ridiculous. GTA 5 improved on the playground aspect but the immersion in 4 is immense and being able to go into buildings buy items to use, nightclubs etc made the city feel more real and alive. The story was incredible and felt more personal than GTA 5.
I agree that the leap between GTA 2 and III was much more drastic but GTA IV definitely felt like the next step forward. The previous games whilst still classics were left in the past when IV came out. It’s a shame that it’s more or less forgotten now.
I just enjoyed the physics of GTA 4 so much. I spent endless hours in online races there. For me especially the car physics of GTA 5 were a step backwards
@@robf4605 The last great Rockstar game they had was Red Dead Redemption 2 and it has been horribly neglected by the current Rockstar team in favor of prioritizing sharkcards and GTA Online.... Look at their other latest projects/failures that is GTA: Defective Edition and Saints Row (Woke Row), total abominations. I will stay opened minded that maybe they will do GTA 6 justice, but I also will keep my expectations low knowing the current Rockstar teams latest track records.
@@commandervile394 yeah it's because the prices for everything was insane, micro-transactions and since people complained about them trying to make money the motivation and revenue to update the online was gone i had a few ideas of things they could add but what could they really add? back to the future car?
GTA 3 is still my favorite in the series. Also, you'd neglected to mention that in Vice City, you were able to shoot people inside their cars through their car windows, and you were also able to shoot their tires.
"Pffff!" Says I, "who's actually gonna watch over 2 hours of GTA history" says I. But I thought I'd watch the start for a bit of early GTA nostalgia. 2 hours ant 17 minutes later..... Well done for keeping it interesting. GTA has always been one of my favourite franchises, online was a great experience until the introduction of rocket vehicles, thus making free mode unplayable as there is ALWAYS someone ready to explode you and your mission directive with a simple push of a button.
@@Mr.Capitalism My parents didn't. And they were RIGHT not to. I played it aged 11. Same with loads of games and tv shows and movies. Made you grow up more and understand adult humour etc. I would NEVER stop my kids (don't have any) from watching ANYTHING (apart from horror if they had nightmares, but if they liked it then so be it.) I remember watching Midnight Express as a 10yr old thinking it was awesome, when he bit the guys tongue out I was so fucking SHOCKED. I was like WOAH you can stop a guy from talking by biting his tongue out, that is mental!
Of course man San andreas was the biggest improvement to the series and till now has the best story ,there is not there is absolutely no comparison,it is the best man,for many people maybe the best video game ever made.Gta 4 and 5 do not even have things san andreas had in its RP back then,it is totally legendary, you absolutely can't compare san andreas with especially the following 2 newer games, i ve been playing since gta 3, gta 5 and especially gta 4 were sooo under expectations, i hope they really make a huge revolution like they did with gta 3 and san andreas , with gta 6 after 200 years of waiting.
What was gta 4? A tiny map with less innovations, less things to do, actually almost nothing to do, generally i would say a very small game,a boring story, and only better graphics and physics? Seriously if gta 6 is not something groundbreaking after waiting 11-12 years,at least bring back the territory system with gang wars or something like this,or interesting locations i am never gonna even play or talk about gta.They have totallyyy screwed the series after san andreas,totally.And they are getting advantage to a disgusting level of newer generations that had not experienced the absolute magic of the older games for a decade with gta online and that bullshit.Succhh a shame.
Currently replaying GTA IV and it's definitely my favorite. Feels way more mature while still having typical gta comedy. I wish Vice City would get a proper remake with the Euphoria psychics engine.
@Damion Manuel For me the comedy in IV was spot on, not too dry, not too over the top. Maybe it's because I'm a slav and the adventures of a slav immigrant-criminal that was lied to about the american dream by his relative hit a sweet spot for me. It seems just grounded enough and unreal at the same time that it kind of feels like a slav version of the sopranos.
I failed high school because of World of Warcraft. Well.. because of my lack of responsibility due to playing the game. One time I played for 36 hours straight. I don't even recall eating.
Nick930 How do you not have millions of subs? The production quality is above average. The narration is well done. The level of detail regarding the information provided is astounding. How has the whole world not seen your video yet? This will eventually go viral.
At first when I saw this was over 2 hours long, I said "yeah right, I'm not wasting my time on this" (tl;dr vibes) but here I am, 2 hours and 17 minutes later amazed at how detailed and meticulous this was, thanks for the great put together video
When the world needed him most he returned with a banger. I thought History of Mafia was good but man this is a masterpiece. Appreciate the hard work. Didn't notice it was 2 hour long that's how good it was.
Fantastic job! The reason why I started watching your videos in the first place was because “history of Tomb Raider” was recommended to me. I love these complete history videos and I especially love the level of quality you have for them. Thank you for making this!
Thank you for this. Brought me all the way back to GTA2, the first installment I was able to play. Every GTA release seems to push the limits of what is possible. There must be tremendous pressure for the success of GTA VI.
This was an incredible documentary. I've been watching for a long time and this was by far your best work yet. The amount of time that went into this was insane for sure.
After years of asking for GTA, my mom finally said yes and bought my Vice City in 2009-2010 when I was 14 or 15. That one and San Andreas were my favorites. Didn't play 4 much. By the time 5 came out, I wasn't gaming much anymore. I'm %100 getting in early on 6 though 😏
GTA 4 was so far ahead of its time- especially the physics. Miles above even GTA 5... anyways- absolutely wonderful video man. Absolutely fascinating and so nostalgic.
Wow, i just watched my whole childhood in 2h. Can’t imagine how much work went into this. I think this Video should be included with GTA 6, also Rockstar should put this on their website.
@@huey515 your comment actually made me call her last night to talk about this and she said she was annoyed but she knew that my dad would do literally anything for me so she knew he was gonna probably buy a new one 😂😂😂
GTA 4 was the best GTA of all time, just the look, feel, and soundtrack just felt perfect for a gritty crime life, not even mentioning how great Niko is as a character.
I had no idea there was so much in GTA 4. I bought it after GTA 5 and it just seemed sepia brown and drab. A lot of the impression was base on the game engine it employed. I now might go back to finish it.
@@chrisliddiard725 i think the best part of this game is the layout of the map and the story, obviously since it’s old it’s less populated and lively, but I love the Liberty City atmosphere, it would be really amazing to be in a city like that with GTA 5 graphics, and the physics in that game were amazing, cars felt heavy, guns felt like they had a kick, and when you crashed it really felt like you crashed. Not like you just murdered someone easily going 300 mph in a bat mobile.
Minor Corrections:
-Claude mispronounced.
-It's "Zed-X Spectrum" not Z-X-Spectrum
-Prototype footage of GTA1 and its associated design documents has been blurred (changes still processing atm)
-GTA2 was the first game to increase wanted level from 4 ->6, I never explicitly said GTA3 was the first to do this - but I just wanted to clarify as I didn't mention the increase in GTA2
-Double-Decker* Bus - not Triple-Decker. Must've had harry potter on the brain when recording that bit.
-Michael is "technically" not in witness protection, as many have noted - though it is implied initially. The concept is based on real-life criminals like Henry Hill that became FBI informants, only there's more to it than that. Throughout the story - Michael's relationship with the "FIB" is expanded upon more to reveal the truth about what happened (trying to avoid spoilers here)

GTA games will always be a day 1 purchase for me.
Exactly for most people GTA wasn't GTA until after GTA3 released. I think I spent more time playing Vice City than any other game ever.
@@Damitsall Vice City was magical. Cruising around at night doing nothing was fun.

@@Ile-17 and Interesting to watch
I didnt even noticed it until i saw ur comment, i just saw gta and i clicked on it, but damn 2hours, yo but we have to recognize the effort so...👍
The most perfect movie ever
Lmao
I don’t care what it takes but everyone who watched the gta vi trailer needs to see this video. It’s like a spiritual journey connecting the dots with everything that’s happened so far.
I gotta say, I’m not even really into gaming, consoles, PCs etc etc. But I clicked on this, semi-at random, and... wow, I watched the whole thing. It was better than many, many movies I’ve seen lately. Seriously, the amount of work you must have put in to produce such a comprehensive history of the GTA saga is mind-blowing, and could legit be released as a documentary or even movie on a Netflix-type platform. The scripting, production, the way you bring thing full-circle...... a 5* standing ovation is deserved! And this all coming from a non-gaming type o’ guy!
Major props to Nick for not including spoilers. Most people don't care as these games are nearly 20 years old, but there's a surprising number of folks who've never played SA or even GTA IV
I mean, I'm a person who never played any Fallout or Dragon Age game, since I was busy replaying Mass Effect for the 5th time at the time, so I guess there are such people out there, but not playing through San Andreas at least once would be a huge hole in any gamer's resume.
@@zioming indeed. Fun fact - recording san Andreas for this video was the very first time I played san Andreas! :)
Those are the only 2 i havent played. I put countless hours into all the others. Still have the original GTA 1 and 2 on PS1. But thanks to this video i just bought and installed both SA and IV on my Xbox One. I know nothing about them outside of this video and the memes. So thanks Nick!!
I actually haven't played gta4 or any of the handheld versions feel left out now 😂

I've watched this several times now, and it gets better each time. Given the amount of time spent playing these games, the awesome memories, this documentary is incredibly special to me. THANK YOU!
Been playing GTA since the age of 13 in 1997 until today at the age of 37, played every title, apart from 1 or 2 expansions, seeing them early games bought on a massive wave of nostalgia, GTA has come a long way. This was a top documentary, thank you.
Perfectly stated
Literally exactly the same for me. Born in 84. Played every single title except for some handhelds. Did you used to play 1 on high school computers? That was fun. Then alt+tab like a boss to not get caught.
Die you get a serial killer as the media said?
Same here I've played every GTA game except for GTA Advance and Chinatown Wars. I remember being 11 or 12 and first starting up GTA 3 and just being blown away and then again having that same feeling the first few minutes I played GTA 4. I still play GTA 5 to this day, but mostly single player (really miss single player expansions) When ever a new GTA game comes out its always one of the most exciting moments in my life and I spend days binging them on launch.
@@prezidenttrump5171 yeah that’s exactly what I was doing mate, such a shame I never got one.

they have a lemmings statue in dundee, although RS North is now in edinburgh there should be a gta one too. the scottish references in all the gta games will go over many people's heads
Im also from Dundee and it kinda makes me proud that this is where it all began, its all nice to see wee references to the city in all the games.
'mon the Scots :)
I just spend two hours of my day watching this documentary and I’m glad to say that I enjoyed every minute of it
I think GTA4’s police interactions were the most realistic. The fact they aren’t alerted to crimes in alleyways and unpopulated locations where there are no witnesses was nice compared to GTAV’s psychic cops.
GTA 4 was the best.
I AM SO GLAD U SAID THAT. THE COP ALWAYS NO WERE U AT🤔
honestly gta 5 seems to be the worst in my opinion at least
Also the fact you can shoot the gun out of their hand and they will run away.
AND physics too, GTA4 you shoot leg, they limp. GTA5 as well as RDR2 arent the same as GTA4/RDR1
There’s something about San Andreas’ design that makes it feel larger than GTA V. I’m hoping they incorporate that into the next entry, and make it a Multi city state.
I think it's a combination of factors. San Andreas' design seemed to have morr character in its design(for me at least) and you also had more environment variety (Three different cities, country side, country towns, deserts).
Cockstar is just re-releasing for ps5 with no gta 6 in sight 🙄🙄
San Andreas is the best one. And that says a lot.
Yep, sure does.
You're insane.
Damn! This documentary is freaking amazing. So much detail and research. I don’t know how it popped up on my home feed but I’m glad it did.

Amazing documentary skills. It's rare to find such a long video that is so easy to watch. You got a sub.
I still play the old GTA games from twenty years ago
I grew up playing GTA 3, Vice City, and SA as a kid. I have a friend I met on the old "Multi Theft Auto Vice City" mod for PC which was a mod to make it online multiplayer that I met in 2004 and still talk to this day. Just played GTA 5 for the very first time a couple weeks ago on PC. It's an incredible game. The 1st person is really awesome. Trevor is my favorite character out of the entire franchise. I haven't played online yet, but I have been modding story mode to tweak a few things such as adding more missions, heists, police rebalance, realistic weapons (AKM, M4A1, RPD), Finite Cops, etc. It seems to me gamers are so spoiled that it's like that boy from Harry Potter who is angry he only got 35 birthday gifts instead of 37.

the fact that "rooftop Rumble" made it into this doc about the entire franchise brings significant joy.
I used to grind away at that, and Survivals, to save up as much cash as possible. They were also a good way to rank up quickly too.
Brings me back to simpler times when the name Rockstar brought excitement to mind, rather than distaste of their modern business practices...
That's the age of information for you😉🤣
BUY MORE SHARK CARDS!!!!!!!
I honestly, can't believe, that it has been 10 years since the last GTA entry. It feels like it's been so long, I really hope they can produce something amazing in 6, the wait has been too long and if it falls on its face, I don't know what will happen to this beloved game series.
It will never fail rockstar doesn’t fail they will never!
There’s so many other alternatives like Watch Dogs, Yakuza and other games that are like GTA,
The reason GTA was so popular was because it was unique and there wasn’t many games that could compare to GTA
So it might be hard for GTA 6 to have as much success as the other GTA’s
@@RiceCooker-ge2tethey could absolutely go beyond and more. Red dead 2 is the best game of all time for me and it’s set in 1899 imagine a modern world. They can also take things from gta San Andreas that made it fun like the workout/weight system. Learning new moves. Basketball etc
Oh it won’t fail. IV and V have plenty of critics. Leaning on online and waiting 12 years in between major releases has left a sour taste in many mouths.
But we’ll all buy it. I never thought V was all that great story wise but it was a hell of sandbox for the sixty bucks. I got far more than my moneys worth. VI will do just fine.
We (the die hard consumers) will still buy it and play. But they’ve waited far too long and based on the trailer for GTA 6, I’m not too impressed. Looks like It’s just a new storyline, but same stuff. I was hoping they’d do something like make it multi-city.
Round of a applause. LOVE THE DOC, Everything you added and put together goes so well. You nailed it from the history start till what we are right now. Cant wait to see more of this series.
I never personally saw the "grinding" if you will in Vice City to be all that bad to fully complete the game. Yes, many of the side missions felt a little tedious, but that game in its entirety was a lot of fun. Arguably one of the best GTA games ever made.
It wouldn’t be as good if it didn’t take place in the 80s. If any game needs a ground-up modern remake, it’s Vice City. Soundtrack should remain unchanged. It has a ton of bangers.
My favorite of all the GTA games.
That's no excuse, overall is a good game but the grinding was unnecessary and bad.
@@SoldadoHyliano141 I think this due to the game was developed in 5 months

Somebody give this man an award, amazing documentary. I remember back when G4 was a thing, i always wanted to watch a History of GTA. That wouldn't have come close to this.
How those guys cover so much detail in these cities blows my mind. Every inch are drawn in. Just amazing.
GTA Vs Los Santos is amazing!!! I live in WI and spent 4 months in LA (January to April 2022) after playing GTA V for 7 years and it was unreal to spent that much time there and see so much that reminded me of the game.
Despite it's the longest video of all, it is the best video of GTA I've seen ever. I litteraly know EVERYTHING. Thank You for that.
GTA 4 will always be the best, the leap was ridiculous. GTA 5 improved on the playground aspect but the immersion in 4 is immense and being able to go into buildings buy items to use, nightclubs etc made the city feel more real and alive. The story was incredible and felt more personal than GTA 5.
gta3 was the biggest jump
I agree that the leap between GTA 2 and III was much more drastic but GTA IV definitely felt like the next step forward.
The previous games whilst still classics were left in the past when IV came out. It’s a shame that it’s more or less
forgotten now.
I just enjoyed the physics of GTA 4 so much. I spent endless hours in online races there. For me especially the car physics of GTA 5 were a step backwards
Vice city had all that as well
San andreas is still my favorite. It had everything and it was nice it wasn't mob related for once.
Gonna be hard for GTA6 to top GTAV with Dan Houser finally stepping aside. His love of film and music really drove the series to where it is.

2 hours ant 17 minutes later.....
Well done for keeping it interesting.
GTA has always been one of my favourite franchises, online was a great experience until the introduction of rocket vehicles, thus making free mode unplayable as there is ALWAYS someone ready to explode you and your mission directive with a simple push of a button.

GTA 4 >
Blinded by nostalgia
Of course man San andreas was the biggest improvement to the series and till now has the best story ,there is not there is absolutely no comparison,it is the best man,for many people maybe the best video game ever made.Gta 4 and 5 do not even have things san andreas had in its RP back then,it is totally legendary, you absolutely can't compare san andreas with especially the following 2 newer games, i ve been playing since gta 3, gta 5 and especially gta 4 were sooo under expectations, i hope they really make a huge revolution like they did with gta 3 and san andreas , with gta 6 after 200 years of waiting.
What was gta 4? A tiny map with less innovations, less things to do, actually almost nothing to do, generally i would say a very small game,a boring story, and only better graphics and physics? Seriously if gta 6 is not something groundbreaking after waiting 11-12 years,at least bring back the territory system with gang wars or something like this,or interesting locations i am never gonna even play or talk about gta.They have totallyyy screwed the series after san andreas,totally.And they are getting advantage to a disgusting level of newer generations that had not experienced the absolute magic of the older games for a decade with gta online and that bullshit.Succhh a shame.

After years of asking for GTA, my mom finally said yes and bought my Vice City in 2009-2010 when I was 14 or 15. That one and San Andreas were my favorites. Didn't play 4 much. By the time 5 came out, I wasn't gaming much anymore. I'm %100 getting in early on 6 though 😏

@@chrisliddiard725 i think the best part of this game is the layout of the map and the story, obviously since it’s old it’s less populated and lively, but I love the Liberty City atmosphere, it would be really amazing to be in a city like that with GTA 5 graphics, and the physics in that game were amazing, cars felt heavy, guns felt like they had a kick, and when you crashed it really felt like you crashed. Not like you just murdered someone easily going 300 mph in a bat mobile.
