and while i don't believe you that they're actually paying for exposure over a year out from launch, i'll pretend you're not lying, and i will point out that the amount of money you think that will cost is nowhere near
hey we're the leaders of the industry and made a billion dollars for our last release
you're way too stupid and ignorant to be commenting on this subject, do some basic research, like asking Grok "how much money has gta5 made?"
aside from the hideous visuals, the game itself was a pioneering masterpiece for its era. Its like complaining about all the issues with Diablo 2 in 2025, no shit, but in its time, it stood head and shoulders above almost any game ever made.
