It is discovered that this iconic Rockstar game is canon within GTA

The iconic game Bully, developed by Rockstar Games, takes players into the intricate dynamics of a boarding school, where the protagonist, Jimmy Hopkins, faces a hostile environment filled with spoiled kids and bullies. Although the title has never received an official sequel, its legacy has remained alive thanks to subtle references in other games from the company, such as GTA IV.

The iconic game Bully, developed by Rockstar Games, takes players into the intricate dynamics of a boarding school, where the protagonist, Jimmy Hopkins, faces a hostile environment filled with spoiled kids and bullies. Although the title has never received an official sequel, its legacy has remained alive thanks to subtle references in other games from the company, such as GTA IV.

A hidden wink deep within the game

In GTA IV, the essence of Bullworth Academy can be captured through the fictional television program I’m Rich, broadcast by CNT in Liberty City. This reality show parodies the lives of the wealthiest individuals, and among its protagonists is Jill Von Crastenburg, who comes from one of the richest families in the world. Jill’s representation serves as a mirror of privileged culture, showcasing behaviors that include a lack of tolerance for frustration and mental health issues, such as an eating disorder. These references fuel the satirical critique present in both works, addressing issues such as bullying and the excesses of contemporary elites.

The connection of Bully with the GTA universe becomes more explicit through the brief mention of Bullworth Academy during the promotion of Jill’s episode in I’m Rich. This moment allows fans to connect the dots and recognize Bully as a canonical part of the Grand Theft Auto world. However, expectations for a return to the youthful narrative that characterized Bully are minimal. According to various sources, it does not seem that Rockstar is considering the possibility of a new installment in this universe, leaving players with nostalgia for the original title while they continue to wait for the company’s future proposals.

Rockstar Games has announced the acquisition of the video game development studio Video Games Deluxe, located in Sydney, Australia. This studio, which will be renamed Rockstar Australia, has close ties to the successful game LA Noire, in which it previously collaborated. The acquisition, the financial terms of which have not been disclosed, strengthens Rockstar’s connection with Australian talent, led by Brendan McNamara, founder of Video Games Deluxe and former member of Team Bondi, the studio responsible for LA Noire.

A much-anticipated return to Rockstar

McNamara expressed his enthusiasm for joining Rockstar, emphasizing his commitment to continue creating the best video games possible. Video Games Deluxe also participated in the development of GTA The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition, highlighting their history of collaboration with Rockstar.

Team Bondi, the original studio behind LA Noire, was the subject of controversies regarding its working conditions. Despite a mix of success and criticism, Team Bondi only released one game before dissolving, leaving behind a legacy of ambition and difficulties. The rights to their next project, Whore of the Orient, were acquired by the company Kennedy Miller Mitchell, but the game was ultimately canceled after Warner Bros. withdrew as the publisher.

While the acquisition of Video Games Deluxe is a strategic move, it has not been confirmed what project Rockstar Australia is working on. However, it is speculated that the studio could be involved in the development of GTA 6, which is expected to be released this year on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. This new title in the franchise is projected to sell 40 million copies and generate over 3 billion dollars in revenue during its first year. Although a trailer is estimated to be released this December, Rockstar has maintained a strategic silence about the game.

The dilemma of what to do with money

Recently, a YouTuber known as MrBossFTW has revealed one of these secrets in a video that is capturing the attention of the community. This finding is located in a shed south of Emerald Ranch, where players can access a hidden room. Descending some stairs, players will find a space that, in addition to the usual food and supplies, holds an intriguing aspect: a set of matches in the shape of an arrow indicating the direction of a hidden treasure.

This secret is hidden behind a movable wall that, when discovered, reveals a pile of money equivalent to 50 dollars. This amount, which in the context of the year 1899 holds significant value, offers players an important decision: to use the money for their own purposes or donate it to their group, representing an additional layer of interaction and choice within the game.

The fascinating thing about Red Dead Redemption 2 is that, despite having completed the story several times, there is always something new to discover. The richness of the world created by Rockstar, along with these hidden revelations, ensures that both new players and veterans continue to delight in surprises and adventures in the land of outlaws.

In 2025, the acclaimed game from Rockstar Games, Red Dead Redemption 2, will celebrate its seventh anniversary, a milestone that many might consider simply a reminder of its legacy. However, fans of the title continue to amaze by discovering hidden secrets that remain unexplored even after multiple playthroughs. Recently, players have begun sharing their findings on platforms like Reddit, revealing details that add new dimensions to the gaming experience.

Defenestrating people? Please, yes and thank you

A user known as Mental_Freedom_1648 caused a stir by sharing his astonishment at discovering an animation during fights that allows characters to be thrown out of windows, evoking classic scenes from western movies. “I can’t believe I played this game completely without knowing you could throw people out of windows,” he commented, generating a wave of similar responses from other players who were also unaware of this mechanic.

Players have highlighted that, in addition to throwing them out of windows, the game allows for brutal actions using the environment, such as slamming opponents against walls or even the bar counter, which enriches the gameplay. This level of detail is part of what has kept interest in Red Dead Redemption 2 alive, as even the most experienced players continue to find new aspects of the game in each new session.

One of the most notable comments from a user who is on their third playthrough highlights: “The last one was 100% and I’m still discovering new things.” This constant evolution in the gaming experience shows that, despite the time that has passed since its release, Red Dead Redemption 2 continues to offer surprises and fun for both new players and veterans.

GTA VI reaviva el debate sobre la violencia en los videojuegos y en la vida real

Pensábamos que ya habíamos superado lod e abrir informativos hablando de un asesinato cometido por un aficionado a los videojuegos y de cómo se unen estos dos hechos, pero aún persisten preocupaciones sobre este tema, particularmente en torno a la anticipada entrega del famoso videojuego Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6).

Cuando pensábamos que habíamos superado este debate, vuelve

Durante una reciente entrevista con la CNBC, Strauss Zelnick, CEO de Take-Two Interactive, defendió su postura al afirmar que no existe una conexión directa entre los crímenes que se pueden cometer en el entorno sandbox de GTA 6 y los comportamientos violentos en la vida real. Zelnick comparó la representación de la violencia en los videojuegos con su exhibición en programas de televisión y películas, asegurando que la inquietud por los gráficos realistas del nuevo título no le preocupa en absoluto.

El CEO argumentó que la violencia gráfica en medios visuales ha sido parte de la narrativa humana desde tiempos inmemoriales, y que el impacto que estos tienen en la audiencia es más complejo que simplemente vincular un videojuego con actos delictivos. Cuando ves programas de televisión y películas de cualquier época, son visualmente muy realistas, expresó Zelnick, restando importancia a las críticas que podrían surgir con el lanzamiento del nuevo título de Rockstar Games.

En el horizonte también se espera un segundo tráiler del juego, que muchos anticipan con gran expectación. Sin embargo, algunos rumores sugieren que, según un antiguo desarrollador de Rockstar, podría ser complicado que GTA 6 alcance los 60 FPS en consolas de la nueva generación, como PS5 y Xbox Series X/S. Esto ha generado cierta incertidumbre en la comunidad de jugadores, quienes ya especulan sobre el rendimiento gráfico y la jugabilidad del título. A medida que la fecha de lanzamiento se acerca, todos los ojos estarán puestos en cómo se desarrollará este nuevo capítulo en la controversial franquicia.

Rockstar Games could change its approach with PC and surprise us with GTA

Rockstar Games has historically been known for its rigid approach to video game releases, especially in its most renowned franchises: Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption. Since the release of GTA IV, the company has followed a pattern of first launching console versions, leaving PC players waiting between a year and a year and a half to access the corresponding versions. This has been the case with iconic titles like GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2, and even the first Red Dead Redemption never saw the light on PC. GTA 6 for PC, […]

Since the release of GTA IV, the company has followed a pattern of first launching console versions, leaving PC players waiting between a year and a year and a half to access the corresponding versions. This has been the case with iconic titles like GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2, and even the first Red Dead Redemption never saw the light on PC.

GTA 6 for PC, maybe we won’t have to wait?

However, the landscape of the video game market is changing, and the recent statements from Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take Two, have highlighted the growing importance of the PC market. According to Zelnick, “we have seen that PC has become a much more important part of what used to be a console business”. This evolution is leading Rockstar to reconsider its release strategy, suggesting that the future could include simultaneous releases of versions for PC and console.

With the recent announcement of the trailer for GTA 6, the first versions will still be for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, but there are indications that Rockstar is considering changes for future releases. It is speculated that, for GTA 7, the company could implement this new approach of simultaneous releases. The Civilization series, which recently launched Civilization 7 simultaneously on various platforms, could be serving as a model for this strategy.

However, PC fans will have to wait a little longer for GTA 6. Although changes are being made to Rockstar’s release policy, PC users will need to be patient, at least until the next installment of this iconic franchise is available in stores at the end of 2024.

Why do so many planes crash in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas? 20 years later, we find out

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is infamous for its planes crashing everywhere, and now we know the reason behind this peculiar occurrence.

Video games work thanks to an arcane power called programming. That’s something we all know, but sometimes we forget. Everything is written to work in a certain way, and even when it doesn’t, it’s also because of what it’s written. That’s why it’s surprising to hear people delving into the inner workings of any video game. Because they reveal things we didn’t know about the games. Even 20 years after their release.

Planes in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas have always behaved strangely. Particularly because many of them crash or explode in mid-air for no apparent reason. Something that has been a mystery to the community for years, debating whether it is intentional or not. Now Obber Vermeij, former developer at Rockstar Games, has clarified why these hilarious accidents occurred. And, of course, it was a programming problem.

According to Vermeij’s code, he created planes out of thin air in the sky when they were visible to the player, looking for obstacles before doing so. Because this scanning was slow, and we understand that it could compromise game performance, the absolute minimum was used to do it. This would explain why small objects are not detected, causing planes to ignore them. In addition, the plane could be generated without enough speed, causing it to fall much lower than it should, and the map would not load until after the plane had been generated, causing obstacles to appear after they could be detected. That explains the high number of air accidents in San Andreas.

But that’s not all. Because it turns out that, even if aviation problems were already many by themselves, a bug ended up finishing off the dramatic black hole that San Andreas represents for aeronautics. Because according to a modder named Silent, there is also a bug in the collision detection of airplanes. This bug causes a false positive, giving the plane the impression that there is no obstacle in front of it, when in reality there is. Something that further increases the chances of accidents. Which continue to occur, even in the Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy version.

Does all this surprise us? The truth is, not really. How dangerous San Andreas is for airplanes has been a meme for 20 years. What’s interesting is discovering the reasons behind this and how a series of unforeseen problems has created this hilarious narrative of San Andreas as a kind of miniature Bermuda Triangle. Because in the end, even the greatest mysteries have a reasonable explanation if we look in the right place.

GTA fans are trying to figure out its release date by studying the phases of the Moon

GTA 6 is the most anticipated game for a long time and that is why fans are looking to find out when it will be announced… in the phases of the moon?!

We never tire of repeating that few games are as anticipated as GTA 6. Probably none. GTA 5 continues to break records, selling as if it were new, with GTA Online not only refusing to die but proving to have more life than ever with each passing month. At Rockstar Games, they have few or no reasons to hasten the process, but that doesn’t make their fans any less restless. They’ve reached the point of speculating about things that seem closer to divination than anything else.

Grand Theft Auto V DOWNLOAD

That’s what happened on September 29th. Rockstar Games announced that to celebrate the Happy Moon Festival, they would distribute special shirts to all users who logged into their servers during that week. Something completely innocuous until a Twitter user, named Dirty_Worka, decided to read into it further.

According to this person, the Moon depicted in the screenshot they shared was a Waxing Gibbous Moon. The next time the Moon would be in this phase was on Monday, October 2nd, which could mean that it was a spoiler that not only a GTA 6 teaser would be released that day but also a major new game announcement. As it’s now October 4th, we know that divination through Moon phases didn’t work out. Except for one obvious detail. Moon phases are regular.

As Dirty_Worka pointed out in their tweet, the next Waxing Gibbous Moon phase is on Wednesday, November 1st, 2023. That means they could still be right, and in a little less than a month, we might learn more about the new GTA. However, it’s also possible that Moon phases don’t mean anything, and we might all just be losing our minds a little. And if that’s the case, who’s to say we didn’t have fun along the way?
