What's the best GTA?
Rockstar Games has released the first footage of an in-game GTA 6 TV show called "Macca & Friends," which is about a sunglass-wearing pink alligator and his wetland friends in Leonida (the stand-in for Florida). One of Macca's friends is Pinchie the crab, who is Macca's landlord. Macca is also friends with a hat-wearing manatee and a flamingo. Check out the trailer below, which sets up a story where Macca needs to get money to pay his landlord. The story involves the group seemingly posing as cops and sneaking into a police station, maybe to grab some cash from an evidence locker? Macca & Friends will be available to watch on Weazel, which is GTA's version of Fox. For now, all we have is this teaser.
