Games Inbox: What should the first GTA 6 spin-off be?

Could San Andreas become part of GTA 6? (Rockstar Games) The Tuesday letters page tries to imagine what will happen after GTA 6, as a reader worries about the future of Warner Bros. Games Inbox is a collection of our readers’ letters, comments, and opinions. To join in with the discussions yourself email gamecentral@metro.co.uk Beyond GTA 6Rockstar has already confirmed that they’re working on a follow-up to GTA 6 that won’t take another 13 years. Everyone assumes this will be something like Vice City to GTA 3, or maybe Vice City Stories on the PSP. But it’s actually hard to guess because so much has change since those games came out, in terms of how long it takes to make a game and how hard developers are worked. So what could it be? My assumption is that it’ll be closer to the DLC expansions for GTA 4, but maybe standalone. By that point GTA Online 2, or whatever it turns out to be, will be in full effect and people will probably have gotten over GTA 6 itself a bit. So this could be an excuse to return to the game world in a story adventure, after maybe not having touched it in a while. They can probably only do that once though, before people start demanding a completely new location, so my question is will they try and do an upgraded version of Liberty City or San Andreas? You could keep the same map but make more of the buildings something you can enter and bring things up to the standards of GTA 6. I think this is bound to happen at some point, I’m just not sure if you’d see it first in GTA Online 2, GTA 6, or a spin-off.Clark Want GTA 6 news?

Prepare for troubleSo GTA 6 release is getting closer and closer, but I have one question? Are the servers going to hold up? They say over 8 million people have already pre-ordered the game and then probably millions more as the launch day gets closer. 8 million people downloading 220 gigs of data is 1,760 petabytes (yes, I googled it) Maybe that’s why there is a pre-load week. Keep up the amazing work.Cassius2KPS: I have got time off work to play it, but stupidly forgot and agreed to a walk over the top of the O2 on the Friday. GC: We wouldn’t be surprised if it took half the internet with it. It’s going to be an interesting couple of days. Gaming partworkI’ve been thinking, if GTA is sold in two bits, one is story mode and the other is online, and it works (which I think it would) get ready for every game to sell it that way. Call Of Duty will be the first; you buy story mode, then have to pay again for online gaming. That’s how they will get games to £100 a time it’s like the first in-game purchase that was ever made available I can’t remember who it was, I just remember it was a horse and sold like hot cakes. So let’s get ready for campaigns and online play to be split up, because it’s going to happen no matter what GTA 6 does.David GC: You’re thinking of the horse armour from The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion. Email your comments to: gamecentral@metro.co.uk Not hardcoreThis is in response to hardcore gamers’ repeated insistence that The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time is far too easy and they can play it blindfolded and that a baby could play it easily… OK, OK just the first one, but I am not finding it such a pushover, nearly perished once or twice on bosses myself and just been wiped out in the overworld more than once, mostly from been dumb and ‘raising’ my shield while holding a bow or a fairy bottle and not actually raising it at all, even though it makes the raised shield sound effect, so that’s on Nintendo, not me! Played it multiple times over the years too, so I must just be getting old! But I seriously don’t think it would be too easy for first timers by any means.big boy bent GC: No one said it would be, but more experienced players might’ve appreciated a hard mode of some sort.

I watched it the other day and I think it’s the best Resident Evil movie there is! Yeah, it’s not accurate to the lore of the first two games but whatever. It’s a fun, action filled romp through a version of the Resi world. I particularly loved the way the main character kept unlocking new weapons as he went along, a bit like the Micheal Douglas movie Falling Down. They should turn that movie into a game. I’d love to blow up a McDonald’s for missing breakfast by one minute.TommyFatFingers GC: Resident Evil Requiem wasn’t accurate to the beginning of the game, let alone the rest of the lore. None of the games care about that stuff if it gets in the way of what they want to do. Gunn fishin’Just seen that James Gunn is out already at the DCU, as part of the takeover of Warner Bros. Not really a surprise, except that I didn’t expect it to happen quite this soon. So that means two different DC cinematic universes now and not a single video game to tie into them. Heck, there’s hardly been a single DC video game of any kind in that whole time. I doubt there’ll be any anytime soon either. That merger is going to mean tons of layoffs at all the Warner studios, including NetherRealm and who knows what will be left at the end of it. The Hogwarts Legacy devs will probably be okay, but only because they’ll cut even more people at the other studios. With everything else going on at the moment I think it’s being overlooked what a disaster is about to happen at Warner. I remember back in the Xbox 360 and early PlayStation 4 era they were a top notch publisher. They didn’t release a lot but almost all of it was good. Now they’re just an empty shell that has cancelled most of its games and shut down most of its developers. It’s a familiar story (how many games is Take-Two going to release in the next few years, that aren’t GTA?) but the worst thing for me is I don’t see any way back. This isn’t a temporary problem, these companies are never going back to releasing multiple games a year, they’re just going to rely on one massive hit every few years and that’s it. I guess the best thing you can say is at least what’s left isn’t live service games, but that’s not much comfort.Zeiss City upgradeI wonder if anyone can tell me if the GTA remasters ever got fixed on the Switch? Couldn’t care less about the new one but certainly have some nostalgia for the older games and wouldn’t mind getting some time with Vice City, if it’s playable now. Sad about the demise of the Underbox going offline, I rarely commented due to login issues but there was interesting discourse on their (usually). Keep up the good work.Solabound GC: The remasters were definitely patched but we don’t know specifically about the Switch version. 100% approvalI finished the Zelda: Ocarina Of Time remake yesterday. I’ve not played through Ocarina Of Time since the 3DS remake, so it all felt fairly new, particularly from the Forest Temple on. The new graphics and music are amazing, a brilliant way to bring the game up to current standards and a contender for best looking Nintendo game ever. I found it pretty easy though and some dungeon changes made it easier. I hope the rumours of a Master Quest are right, add in a Temple Of Light too please. I used the Zelda Notes feature in the Nintendo Switch App too. It’s pretty neat, takes screenshots of your milestones, shows your progress and has a very useful map when mopping up the last few chests and golden skulltulas. I don’t think I’ve ever got 100% in Ocarina Of Time before, but I have now. If they do make Majora’s Mask with these new graphics, it’ll be a day one purchase for sure. Though that would definitely benefit from some additional content even more than Ocarina Of Time, so hopefully they get more ambitious. Then maybe they can do a third title, perhaps linking the story to the Hero’s Shade from Twilight Princess, though Nintendo’s reticence to join up Zelda games, maybe not.Euclidian Boxes GC: We’d welcome a third game too. It’d be a good way to keep the old formula going and we can finally find out what happened to Navi. Inbox also-ransI wonder why there’s been no sign of A Link To The Past remake yet? It’d have to be 2D or it’d look too much like Ocarina Of Time but I hope they use a better art style than they did for Link’s Awakening, otherwise I’m up for it.Stoop I don’t know how many people care anymore but Shenmue 3 Enhanced has been delayed into next year. There are rumours of Shenmue 4 being in development, but I don’t know if any of us will live that long to see it.Korbie Email your comments to: gamecentral@metro.co.uk The small printNew Inbox updates appear every weekday morning, with special Hot Topic Inboxes at the weekend.
