>As part of former Rockstar North president Leslie Benzies' $150 million lawsuit against Take-Two, it's been revealed that GTA Online has generated "at least" $500 million in revenue from microtransactions.
>Dan Houser said in November 2015 that more than 8 million people were playing GTA Online every week. He described GTA Online as "the gift that keeps on giving" with "nearly 100 percent profit margin except for development costs and fees collected by storefronts"
Is GTA finally dead?
Good riddance, Saints Row was always better.
well for starters:
>playing GTA online ever
the single player is all that matters, but even that has all of rockstars social club bullshit

And there won't be a single player DLC now that Jewstar can sprinkle in a few items every month and make millions.
I don't know what's worse, companies that offer micro-transactions or the idiots who actually buy into them.
>>334528447
Micro transactions are like legal illicit drugs. There's demand and supply. If people want to ruin their lives and waste their money, so be it.
>>334528371
the big danger at this point is R* either treating the single player as a paper-thin premise on which to attach the MP content, or by introducing single player microtransactions and content treadmills
> is gta dead
From the looks of it, far far from it.
I hate GTA Online so much
It's like, not fun at all.

>yfw you never had fun because you never had a group of people to regularly play it with.
Is there a sandbox video game that is suitable for all ages?

>makes a fuck-load of money
>is somehow dead
Are you fucking retarded?

>at this point
GTA5 is already clear progression towards this becoming a reality.

Not the guy you're responding to, but I do have a group of friends to play it with. We can squeeze some fun out of it, but it's still an ass game that Rockstar doesn't give half a shit about improving.
>>334529771
Not him, I played it with friends a bit, but we all got bored of it after awhile. I wish GTA:O was more like SAMP. Also ever since online came out I have a tendency to lose connection from non-private lobbies.
