We would like to share a snippet of something rather curious that we have come across on the great plains of the internet.
Take-Two teases that Rockstar games is re-mastering "Red Dead Redemption" which also includes "GTA 6." Conversely, most fans already know the plans of Rockstar to launch the "Red Dead Redemption 2" which will be revealed at E3 this June .... While GTA 6 could also be revealed during RDR 2's launch.
That was actually published. As in there is a website out there that voluntarily has associated itself with an article that includes that paragraph. The rest doesn't get any better either.
Now, after we've seen articles that have referenced things like "GTA 7" and "Xbox Two & PS5", clearly slavering after that adsense cash, this shouldn't be such a big surprise. With the various pretty significant announcements Take-Two has dropped in the past few months, it was to be expected that E3 drawing close will bring the worst out of fringe gaming journalism.
However articles like these, whose mere titles give off that stench of clickbait aren't the cunning ones — there are those which manage to hide their true nature of not having any actual content of substance within, trapping aware but unsuspecting Google-ers.
Certain topics on the internet have turned into minefields of scams, falsehoods and regurgitation of bullshit. Unfortunately, the popularity of GTA 5 has turned it — and anything related to it, i.e. Rockstar, Take-Two and even Red Dead Redemption — into one of these topics.
But how does one avoid giving these leeches and clicks? Well, you can always stick to the official Rockstar Newswire for any game info. Sure, you might learn of upcoming updates or various tidbits of news from other sites, but if you're only looking for the most crucial of info, look there.
