Holding out hope this is what GTA 6 will be.

Imagine a better world with me. The sun is shining, the wine is sparkling, and rather than starring men doing crimes, the Grand Theft Auto series is about a massive dinosaur. Who is probably also doing crimes, technically.

It's a world we could have had, if the original prototype for the first GTA had gone differently. According to Colin Macdonald, a former dev at DMA whoto mark the 25th anniversary of GTA 1's release, the original GTA game was just a tech demo where you played a"dinosaur roaming around and destroying the buildings". Kind of like a top-downEven though Godzilla Theft Auto would be an obvious hit, the devs at DMA changed its focus when someone chucked some cars into the game.

And so, GTA was born. It wasn't long before someone else wondered what would happen if players could exit the car and jump into others, and"at that point it morphed into Grand Theft Auto". Even though the devs, they still ended up playing it during their lunch breaks, a sign that there could be something to this dinosaur-free version of the game.

Apparently turning your dino tech demo into the start of one of the most recognisable series in videogame history entails some trouble, though. The bugs that were introduced when the game suddenly snapped from being about a stompy dinosaur to being about hijacking cars made for a"very frustrating process" for the team. But it didn't stop them from taking the time to add in stuff like sound effects and radio stations to liven up the world a bit.
