6 Best GTA Easter Eggs in Grand Theft Auto V

I love Easter Eggs in video games. They’re fun, friendly and a great way for game developers to wink at their fans. And the good people at Rockstar love Easter Eggs just as much as me, filling their franchise games with Bigfoots, UFOs and – best of all – references to their other games.

Easter has come early

Grand Theft Auto V has been out for a week now, and fans are checking every nook and cranny for the best Easter Eggs. The ones I love the most are the references to previous GTA games. I love the feeling of each game existing in this larger, shared universe. So like the giddy gamer I am, I’ve gathered together the six best crossover cameos in Grand Theft Auto V!

Literal Assassin’s Creed 4 Trailer

It has been too long since Tobuscus made a new Literal Trailer! Fortunately for us, it’s Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag!

Another fantastic job. The man knows lyrics.

But what the heck is up with video games this month, people? We went all summer without anything, but now in the span of a single month, we’ve got Grand Theft Auto V, Scribblenauts Unmasked, Pokemon X/Y, Marvel LEGO, Batman: Arkham Origins and Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag! I’m not made of money!

Which of those games are you guys and gals going to buy?

Sometimes the World Really is as Awesome as Teenage Mutant Koopa Troopas

Oh to be James Farr, with the computer wizardry know-how to make brilliant animated video game pop culture mash-ups. If I had skills and could get paid to do it, this might be my life. Like, how about Princess Peach crossed with Kill Bill? Or maybe Mario, Luigi, Wario, Waluigi and Princess Peach as the colorful pilots of Voltron? You can have those for free, James Farr.

Conan O’Brien Reviews Grand Theft Auto V

I took the day off from work today so I could stay home and play Grand Theft Auto V. The game is awesome so far, and I think Conan O’Brien agrees!

I love Clueless Gamer! These are hilarious. If you’ve got some time to kill and want to laugh, browse through and watch Conan try to play video games.

Mortal Kombat: Legacy Is Still a Thing

Remember that cool, gritty, serious fan-film series about Mortal Kombat? I do, and so do the people who are making it!

That trailer starts out amazing, but goes off the rails a little when the super-powers and costumes come in. Then it gets better again in the end. They’ve definitely got a great look going. I hope they don’t lose themselves too much in the crazy stuff. I’m a big fan of this whole project, and I want to see it be awesome. The new episodes start on Sept. 26.

No word yet on whether or not Smoke is in the show. He’s my favorite kombatant. So I’ve got my fingers crossed!
