About this listen
Few game franchises have shaped pop culture like Grand Theft Auto. From its humble beginnings to record-breaking releases, GTA has constantly pushed boundaries - both in gameplay and controversy. But how did Rockstar Games turn an experimental top-down crime sim into a cultural phenomenon? How has each installment evolved the open-world genre? And why does GTA continue to captivate millions despite (or perhaps because of) its many scandals? In this episode, we dive into the groundbreaking history of Grand Theft Auto and its lasting impact on gaming and beyond.
