    You think the Rockstar marketing team is trying to scam people with a shitcoin? I am not shure even greedy CEOs would sign that…

    I mean that and the leaker is German and has been active for a while as it seems

      Also filing legal subpeonas for a marketing campaign could get the involved lawyers fined and disbarred. Judges don’t appreciate their time and taxpayer money being wasted like this.

      “You think the Rockstar marketing team is trying to scam people with a shitcoin?”

      Absolutely. Did you forget how predatory GTA Online is? Seems absolutely on brand for them to monetize their guerrilla advertising tactics.

    Just like GTA 5, I’ll wait for the PC version to go on a sale.

    It’ll take a few years, but it’s GTA, which makes it an easy wait for me.

    I played the GTA5 campaign once, played maybe 100 hours of the online multiplayer with friends, and we all decided it was over hyped.

    The game looks nice, it’ll hopefully play well, but I just don’t get the hype.

      I may not even play this one. There are several other games that take my interest over what I have seen so far. It’s going to take a massive amount of good press to make me interested. And that’s just the game itself. I am not happy that they fired all their devs and don’t really want to give them money for being a shitbag company.

    Nah, I’m standing by this conspiracy as well. Something is off about it - the timing, the fkn amateur “hacker” etc

    Plus rockstar have drummed up drama in the past to promote their games
