Not really, you made it look dull. Just because you want it to have more Vice City vibes doesn't mean, that you should make all picture pinkish, including title of the series. Look at the original artwork, it is very vivid. Your on the other hand looks like you used some kind of automatic filter for the sake of making it more "pinkish". Take a look at official Vice City artworks.

Agreed lol. I was not going for Vice city type of arts. If so, I would have taken more time to edit it. I just added some pink to quickly find how it would look.

Speaking of covers, the ones from the 3D era are way better than the HD era

I mean, they're exactly the same. There's barely any difference. 

 

 

Kind of offensive to Steven. His skill as a painter improved monumentally during his time at Rockstar. The 3D box art versus HD is chalk and cheese mate.

This is what I picture an LC map expansion for online using for the trailer. Just showing off a remastered Liberty City in HD for online. RIP Pop Smoke.

I don't mean literally the same. But there's no real difference. Even down to placement. Helicopter top left, bike top right in most, etc, etc. Hardly chalk and cheese. There's significantly more similarities than differences. The only main difference is that of a slight different art style, but ultimately the same one. 

And it's by no means a complaint. I love the box art style. But they're incredibly predictable. And exactly the same every time.

 

And here's my Box Art prediction, from November 2012. I got it pretty spot on... That's how predictable they are, because they're all practically the same.

I agree, the contents are extremely predictable and they are the same format. Not that I mind that. Great formula. I'm speaking purely from an artistic point of view and I think that was what @WatchTheThrone was referring to also. In that, I think it's actually dramatically different and improved in the HD box art, especially in GTA IV which seems to have the most realistic art approach to them all.

[Collibosher]

I hope they keep using that same cover art style in the future. I remember in 2004 just after getting the game, having the GTA:SA game covers with me in the school and just gazing the cover art during the lessons and inspecting the details, like; "who is that woman?" "where is that trolley, didn't see any trolleys when I was playing last night?" (Turns out I really underestimated the size of the map and didn't even know some cities were locked)

 

Compare these to cover art from other games, which always try to look as "cool" as possible, ending up looking just cheesy, corny and lame... GTA covers are always timeless, you could frame any of these on your wall and they would always be relevant. True pop-art like Andy Warhol's works.

They will do. It's pretty iconic at this point. Fun fact, this was the original GTA III Box Art, before it was changed in the US, after 9/11, if I'm not mistaken. It remained the same here in the UK, at least. I still have my copy! A worthy change, though!

What about City Morgue?
Where is their partnership with Rockstar this summer?

I don't like the direction Rockstar have gone but Ruffian Games might just have that slice of cake fans have been waiting for. Especially if it's a remaster/remake of the GTA Trilogy. Those games are classics.

I'm 100% certain they're handling the GTA V next-gen release, and possibly RDR2.

Imagine working at Rockstar.

 

Each day you create one piece of unique grass. Times that by 5 plus years, times that by over 1000 employees.

 

That’s a lot of unique grass.

1) Los Santos 2020 Poster
2) Get the alien costume in this update
3) Putting together a UFO plate
what's next?
it all goes sequentially and leads us to the big winter update
New location might be North Yankton due to the fact that it was presented snowy (at the prequel) and it has UFO at the river...
Perhaps it will be something in SPACE, because of the costume we received in this update

Well, when it comes to covers... I really don't like the one for Grand Theft Auto: Episodes From Liberty City.

i doubt the winter update will be anything to do with ufos . 

not confident but i think it will be lc last big update on this gen give incentive to upgrade to the new online. 

i thought we might see it in 6 but if it is a moderate sized tittle best we can hope for vice city and maybe the everglades . 

south americas i can see as north yankton style islands but no more then that

All this talk of Sony exclusivity makes me think of this. Maybe Sony finally figured out that Rockstar owes them Agent and they want their f*ckin exclusive now. Rockstar better pay them their exclusive.

Not gonna lie there is something about the color scheme of III that makes it way more appealing (for me) than any other GTA cover. I am pretty sure VI's cover will be similar to V's style but I wish they would bring these filters back onto the cover.

And that in term bolsters the brand value. Everybody sees the box art at a glance and they're like yeah, it's GTA. The box art style is way too iconic to change at this point.

The only reason you think that is because of nostalgia. That’s a fact.

Eh, I would hope they just go with Dior.

They are acutely aware of the constant speculation and hype around marketing materials they promote; yet they keep doing things to trigger it. Constantly feels like such a tease --  it makes me think could they have marketed this differently with different art? maybe/maybe not but something just constantly feels like a straight up tease haha. 

Trying to turn the attention towards GTAO. I really do not believe they will release another single player game. I see no reason to. And 2 of the 3 big dogs over there are gone. As well as Dan saying he doesn’t know what VI would be about. Maybe the writing was on the wall the whole time...

Knowing the online crowd Rockstar might just decide to go with a 6ix9ine song.

They didn't even bother to remove the Agent game announcement from their site.

Take Two is greedy, not stupid. They know GTA 6 will make more money than 5.

IIRC, they want Rockstar to release games more often. it's just Rockstar, they're making a perfect one, it takes time.

Yeah, I'm 100% sure that's going to be the case, even though I don't know this band or these songs, "funny numbers" are on top in 2020.

That's because Agent is going to be so perfect it's going to be released for PlayStation 7 in 2050's. Dude, modern consoles can't stand this epic game.

Don't know if anyone acknowledged it. But Rockstar has added back all their old games again to the list.
