Quote:
A science fiction Grand Theft Auto is "very tempting", Rockstar has said.

Rockstar co-founder Dan Houser discussed the possibility of a Grand Theft Auto set in the future, but not until they have a strong idea.

"We will do [a future setting] the very second we have an idea," he told French publication Écrans (via OXM).

"One of our strengths is the consistency of the game world. We're not necessarily the best writers in the world, but we know how to write a video game.

"When we decided to make a Western, it was because we knew we had something to say. We have no interest in going into science fiction for the sake of flying cars and laser guns.

"The best science fiction stories are those that speak about the human condition. So while this idea is very tempting and, by definition, anything's possible in a video game, we lack the essential thing for the moment: a good reason."

How hard can it be? Just set it in a Cyberpunk/Blade Runner environment - with Ninja motorcycles and Katanas. Add some RPG features and make the open world worth exploring, and let people ride hovercars wielding UZIs.

There.

Looks more like he's kissing Kaltern's butt. Laughing

On topic though. Having a hard time picturing sci fi being a great setting for GTA.
