Call Cinco Cinco Cinco, nueve dos, nueve dos. I’ll always remember that number from San andreas. Cruising around just listening to the radio really put you in the game.

Lol no gta game had good writing, 4 was the closest but even that was pretty shit. It was about the humor and satire, which is why the radio shows were better than the missions generally.

That’s why red dead 2 was such a shock to me, having some of if not the best writing in games

I always thought gta series as a extreme parody on real life groups portraited by media.
Like, Vice City was a parody of those gangster and the media at the time, like Scarface or any of those 80s generic b movies.
San Andreas, was the rap and gangs , and those movies with drive-bys, ice cold executions and those shit (like “Don’t be a menace to South Central while drinking your juice on the hood”).
Those don’t supposed to have Shakespearean writing, but weird little pastiches from real life with good, and sometimes, amazing character writing
