10 More GTA 5 Facts You Probably Didn't Know

Grand Theft Auto 5 is full of really bizarre moments and sometimes it's hard to keep track of them hi folks its Malcolm in today on game ranks 10 Grand Theft Auto 5 facts you probably didn't know starting off at number 10 if you've ever wondered exactly what a character in Grand Theft Auto 5 can carry a Reddit user by the name of nope nope nope NR 1 in pounds se I find this really interesting because it's hilarious a grand theft auto 5 character carries at any given time for pistols to mgs3 mps 3 assault rifles 1 sniper rifle 3 shotguns 1 grenade launcher 25 sticky bombs grenades and tear gas grenades and 100 liter canisters of fuel and nope nope nope NR 1 figured out how much all of this would weigh roughly of course I don't know how relative to real-world weapons these are but like the 4 pistols he assumes way a certain amount of grams etc etc and it all comes out to wait 7,500 and 31 pounds that's a fully armed grand theft auto character that's like nearly four tons about 3.75 tons so then the real question is why can't you pick cars up and throw them like the Hulk I mean there's a mod to do that in Grant they thought about why can't you just do that but into the note game you should be able to you know man I'm talking about for realism sake here guys yeah so if this information ever gets back to Rockstar I hope they don't go oh wait that's really messed up we shouldn't do that that's so unrealistic I don't want it to be realistic I'm perfectly fine with being able to carry 7,000 plus pounds of weapons around in my opinion that's part of the charm moving on to number 9 in the beginning of the mission called fresh meat trevor meets up with franklin at his house and in order to do that for whatever reason he jumps over a fence now what's interesting to know about Grand Theft Auto is that the voice actors are not just a voice actors they also did all the motion capture work and when Steven OGG the actor who was playing Trevor fell flat on his face over the fence it was an accident in fact the entire exchange that took place afterwards was an accident Shawn Fantine oh just started laughing because he fell and Steven off didn't break character although if you're looking carefully at both of their faces during the scene you'll notice they are trying to hide some laughter it's particularly clear at a point where trevor is just basically moving his face for no reason what's going on is Steven AAG is basically trying not to laugh which is awesome like it really works Trevor looks like an absolute lunatic here in exactly the way he's supposed to so even though technically they were trying not to laugh the way that it worked works really well and moving on to number eight a couple of reddit users figured out several things regarding the time in grand theft auto v Kirin D 90 503 figured out that since a grand theft auto day is 48 minutes then a year is in fact seventeen thousand five hundred and twenty minutes meaning a year in grand theft auto five is twelve and a quarter days in real life another user duck in Donuts did the math to figure out how long grand theft auto online has been going on using this time scale and ingame and at the time he did the math there had been a hundred and seventy five years that had passed in grand theft auto online now keeping in mind about a month has passed since he did the post so it's gonna be a little bit more than that but the specific thing he's talking about in the post is how long the skyscraper has been under construction which is obviously 175 years the point in time he did the math which I mean it does seem like some buildings take a very long time to get completed but 175 years that's some lazy land developers there moving on to number seven a long-term study of what playing grand theft auto every single day does conducted by the Max Planck Institute for human development and the university clinic Hamburg Eppendorf in Germany determined that two months of daily GTA causes no significant changes in behavior now the big difference between this study and other studies that are similar is that they did not spend their time just finding out what people did after they played again what they found was that yes playing a game would often cause you to become maybe a little bit more aggressive for a few minutes because you've got adrenaline flowing depending on the content of what you're playing at the moment obviously lesser intense Grand Theft Auto moments didn't cause this but what's more important to the study is the overall effect in totality that it has on a person over a period of time and it's not significant I mean I kind of think basically anybody can tell you that a game doesn't really prime people to become something unless they literally have never done any other things because it's the conditions of their actual life that prime them to do things that often get blamed on media and there's really no one at all who literally has from the time they were born only played Grand Theft Auto moving on to number six were you aware that you could actually waste more time by sleeping as a different character if indeed that's what you need to do see here's the thing if you sleep as Michael you're going to sleep for six hours now anybody can tell you that six hours is not enough time to sleep however that's what Michael does Franklin on the other hand has a nice healthy sleep cycle at eight hours an hour man Trevor he sleeps 12 hours a day so while these things may not seem to be that important when you're thinking about it in fact it can be used in case you haven't beaten the main story and need money from some properties or have some business going I mean there's a lot of passive income that happens during the course the game and often times waiting for it is tedious so all you need to do then is go to sleep as Trevor and you're gonna waste as much time as possible or similarly if you just need to pass six hours Michaels the right catnap for you and I just want to be a boring old normal person sleep for eight hours is Franklin who apparently has healthy sleep habits and coming in at number five the voice actor who played Franklin in Grand Theft Auto five is hardcore there's no other way to put it his really is Shawn Darnell Fantine oh and he goes by the name solo for his rap career and in a mini documentary he talked about the house he grew up in it flat-out sounds like something out of grand theft auto listing off shootouts people kicking in doors selling crack out of the front door and basically doing anything that's possible to get by little known fact he's also in grand theft auto san andreas credited as solo he played the Grove Street family's number Darnell interestingly enough he's actually also the cousin of young melee who voiced CJ from San Andreas and they actually lived in and around neighborhoods that were used as the basis for that area of Los Santos in both games moving on to number four remember how I said Steven OGG does a lot of well strange things staying in character like improvising an absolutely insane reaction to falling over that fence not only did he say that he's inspired by Tom Hardy's performance in Bronson but he also recorded a lot of his lines just in his underwear because Trevor is often just in his underwear I'm looking forward to the snowpiercer series that he's in because frankly it's just impossible to look at him as anything other than Trevor the same thing goes for when he was on The Walking Dead because like the image of Trevor in his underwear for as long as Trevor is in his underwear he's like burned into your head Trevor looks like Stephen ugh so when you see Stephen OGG in real life it's like seeing Trevor and he's the voice of Trevor so I mean it's wild just try to watch The Walking Dead tried to do it you're gonna see Trevor in his underwear the whole time moving on to number three did you know that grand theft auto 5 was the number one selling game in the week ending June 2nd 2019 that's six years after release is the top-selling game in the UK a full country just cuz grand theft auto is obviously an incredibly selling game over the years it has been in the top 20 games and not only the UK but the US as well in every month since its release in September 2013 but one there are over 110 million copies sold its launch broke seven Guinness World Records and in 2018 it was reported to be the most profitable entertainment product of all time having brought in six billion dollars I mean it's not hard to figure out why but that's just incredibly impressive moving on to number two did you know that a bunch of companies that are trying to make driverless cars are not able to get enough data from real world traffic to build their car AI fast enough so instead they're relying on Grand Theft Auto 5 and it's hyper realistic environment to generate data about exactly how a car might work in traffic now obviously traffic and grand theft auto is not exactly the same thing as real life however filling it out with real-life data combining the two has actually been producing very good results for them now I'm not gonna say that my immediate agenda involves getting a driverless car but someday maybe I don't know it's kind of a scary prospect but it's cool that grand theft auto 5 is actually helping in the idea it may get better and finally number one the way the score for grand theft auto was created is a several musical artists were enlisted to make soundtracks for each of the different protagonists tangerine dream if you're familiar with the German music pioneers and if you like electronic music frankly you should be did an amazing job basically scouring Michael's midlife crisis hip hop production duo oh no an alchemist handle Franklin and woody Jackson of Red Dead Redemption fan the guy who did the music they're scored Trevor Phillips and this approach really works well they all have very distinct flavors and their music and the game takes on their musical ambience as you play as each character it's brilliant it was such a good move and it produced such a just inherently enjoyable experience that I hope that if they do end up going to multiple protagonists next time around they follow this same approach it worked really well and a quick bonus before we end a man in London who was on his way home from the local Asda which is their equivalent of Walmart for all the Americans out there and we stabbed and they took his copy of grand theft auto they hit him with a brick and stabbed him and took grand theft auto from him I don't know what else to like say that sucks so much he was luckily not permanently injured and recovered fairly quickly but Wow what's your favorite thing about grand theft
