 | Wikipedia is not a strategy guide or instruction manual. Wikipedia articles should focus on the games themselves, not on how to play them; they should not contain tips, tricks, or cheat codes. That information is available elsewhere (such as on our sister project, Wikibooks), in printed guides and online, and does not belong in an encyclopedia entry. Please do not add your own hints or opinions of the game. Verifiable content about the history, design, and overall description of the game is welcome. If you have questions about whether specific information should be added, ask here first. |

Wording edit
"follow criminal duo Lucia and her male partner" sounds faulty. Should it be something like "duo consisting of"? --Gert7 (talk · contribs) 20:54, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
Says 16th entry, when in reality it's the 17th? edit
I don't have the power to change this, but I do have proof! GTA - 1, GTA: L1969 - 2, GTA: L1961 - 3, GTA 2 - 4, GTA 3 - 5, GTA: VC - 6, GTA: SA - 7, GTAA - 8, GTA: LCS - 9, GTA: VCS - 10, GTA IV - 11, GTA IV: TLAD - 12, GTA IV: TBOGT - 13, GTA V - 14, GTA O - 15, GTA VI - 16, TopazianFounder (talk) 17:45, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

- I believe sixteenth entry is working under the belief that Online is not its own instalment but part of GTA V. – Rhain ☔ (he/him) 23:11, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- If their count is correct, VI being the 16th entry has Online as its own game. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 01:51, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
- Good point; they completely missed Chinatown Wars. Add that, remove Online, and then VI is sixteenth. – Rhain ☔ (he/him) 01:53, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
- I think Online should be considered its own thing if every Madden can be considered its own thing. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 02:04, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
- The comparison would be more apt if Madden NFL 24 was included as a fully playable mode within Madden NFL 23. However—despite appearances—it is not, and they separate entries. – Rhain ☔ (he/him) 02:14, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

Kotaku article edit
The recent Kotaku article has been garnering some scrutiny because it offers no concrete information or sources for ita subject matter. It cites last month's Bloomberg and Aftermath article, but what they have are anecdotal as neither state that GTA VI is falling behind.
The reference is used in the "Development" section and thus, should be removed. 2A02:A03F:CA3F:2D00:F93A:3812:2050:7DB9 (talk) 12:50, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
- The Kotaku article attributes its information several times to its sources. Bloomberg and Aftermath are mentioned as additional background, not as sources for Kotaku's information. – Rhain ☔ (he/him) 13:00, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
- Bloomberg and Aftermath are cited in sections of the article about crunch so it’s irrelevant if those articles make mention of a possible delay.
- Moreover, it seems that Kotaku are the ones being told about a possible delay (judging by the author's use of "At the moment, I’m told that Rockstar" in paragraph 6). While this might be hearsay, Kotaku are careful to note that there is so far only speculation about a delay, and that is mentioned in the development section of the Wikipedia article.

confused about the last paragraph edit
Hello, The last paragraph is confusing. It states there was a 17-year-old with autism who was arrested and charged with the hack. The articles cited--[95] and [99] both mention an 18 year old with autism and an unnamed 17 year old who was also involved. Damien.Otis.x (talk) 00:03, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
- The immediate sources after his age is first stated—96 and 97 in this revision—verify that he was 17 when arrested. I believe he was 18 by the time he stood trial. – Rhain ☔ (he/him) 00:57, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
Male "partner...?" edit
The particularly high usage of the term "partner" paints an inconsistent reception. The two are largely ostensibly romantically involved, so changing partner to "boyfriend" would be more logically sound. 125.30.44.43 (talk) 02:08, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
- As far as I know, it has not been confirmed if the two are romantically involved. We don't even officially know his name yet. Partner is suitable in the sense that they are associates and/or work together. LouisOrr27 (talk) 19:31, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
