Not going to lie, I’ve been EXTREMELY conflicted on whether or not to buy Grand Theft Auto V for Xbox One over the last few days. See, here’s my dilemma, which I’m sure is one many-a Bro is having over the game’s next-gen rerelease. Last year I bought GTA V for Xbox 360 on opening night. Installed that stupidly big map update (had to buy a hard drive for my 4GB Xbox just for it), played it for countless hours, beat it, loved it, then tucked it away in my box of video games, where I assume it will sit… forever. Fast forward a year: I own an Xbox One now. I love it. I beat Sunset Overdrive last week (loved it) and am ranking up like crazy in Advanced Warfare. I can’t wait to buy the Halo: The Master Chief Collection when it comes out.
Maybe it’s just the shiny new thrill of owning a new system, but I can’t get GTA out of my head. The twisted adventures of Michael, Trevor, and Franklin are stuck there. But I know I don’t need it, especially since I already beat it on 360. That said, the GTA V updates for Xbox One and PS4 look so damn snazzy (FPS mode… ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!) and Rockstar’s marketing is so fucking seductive to an impulsive person like me that I’m not sure what to do. It’s become a bit of a quandary in my life.
Anyway, what might finally get me to leap on buying the damn thing is, of all things, the new songs included in the GTA V updates for Xbox One. The new tracklists for the radio stations are STUPID awesome, with 162 confirmed tracks. Redditor poggymoose has done a fantastic job documenting an exhausting list of all 162 tracks. A lot of hip-hop dopeness from Schoolboy Q, Ace Hood, and A$AP Ferg, throwback jams from Pat Benatar and ZZ Top, pop classics from Gorillaz, Backstreet Boys, Cassie, and…
Kenny. Fucking. Loggins. “DANGER ZONE.”
Anyway, one of the great joys of GTA V is cruising around Los Santos cranking jams on the radio like its real driving music. The music on the updates is so damn good that I get this warm, nostalgic memory about how good it felt to successfully to dodge the 5-0 in some freeway underpass ditch after pulling off like a Trevor helicopter heist. It makes me happy as a clam to know that I can live it all over again, complete with a Parliament Funkadelic soundtrack, but also as an FPS.
Gotta have it.
