Evolution of Easter Eggs in Rockstar Games (2001-2021)

[@FunWithGuru]

*This is the 2nd of 3 videos I plan to make about Rockstar Games.* I started to develop a bit of an obsession with Rockstar earlier this year, so working on this was a ton of fun. I haven't put so much work into a video like it before, and it's been nice to work on something I'm passionate about. I hope you guys enjoy it, and thanks for watching!

Thank you guru channels like yours and Strange Man made me realize how much I am enamored with rockstar games

[@chrissss696]

I have an easter egg for you In GTA Online, inside the arcades there are jukeboxes that control the radio, if you zoom on them you can see Madd Dogg's album, which is a reference to GTA San Andreas (i hope I've been clear enough)

[@glmn.visuals]

5:58 the music cut as if it was played in the car is so satisfying

Can you say what happened please? I didn’t understand, yet,

[@KRULE666]

@@arch5. if you don't know what happened that speaks volumes on how good the transition was. the scene of the character opening the door using the numpad is from COD. the lobby it opens up into is a completely different game.

I thought it was cod the whole time no wonder the graphics look different

This video was so well made. Few content creators on youtube understand there's actually an art to editing.

The quality of your videos is absolutely outstanding. I’ve been following your channel since middle school and I’m about to start a degree this year, and in these 8 years your content has only gone upwards quality wise. What made your channel so special when I was a little kid still remains and it’s that love you got for secrets and the time and effort you put in these videos. Much love and keep up with these!

[@FunWithGuru]

Thanks so much, Alonso! Good luck on your degree! 😊

[@kungfukorbs]

Max Payne 3 was fantastic. That game holds a special place in my heart. The tone of the game, the music, the art style, it was brilliant.

[@turbo_plasma]

Same here bro. Completed the 1st and 2nd part when i was a child and always thought of completing the 3rd part but my pc at that time could not support it. But, finally when i got a laptop in my engineering days i played and completed MAX PAYNE 3. It was a great feeling to see such a good end of MAX. (though my laptop had only integrated graphics, hence i had to play in low settings with around 30fps or low)

Fun Fact: The secret alley in GTA III reappears in GTA Liberty City Stories. In the PSP version, the wall reads "Hello again!" while in the PS2 port it reads "You just can't get enough of this alley, can you?" No, no we can't.

[@mohammadabosalem9602]

Lol

[@justanotheranimeprofilepic]

I've never seen the ps2 version of that sign. Probably because it runs awful and has no more content

[@Neodeleux]

This was such a good video, between the cool transition effects and the music from the next game starting before you change games and have the protag inside a vehicle with the music playing until they leave the vehicle and it stops as if they were hearing it on the radio. *Chef's Kiss* Well done as always Guru, another video -> another banger.

[@TheMoonShepard]

Man that Bully music really brings me back to simpler times, almost makes me cry

[@apparentapplepie8047]

The most interesting and personal parts of games in my opinion, when the developers decide to leave their own little marks in the back corners of the art they’ve created. Maybe it’s a reference to pop culture or an inside joke the creators can think back on and laugh about. Easter eggs add another level of flavor and life to already magnificent pieces of work. for dedicating yourself to sharing these wonders with us, I must thank you Senior Guru.
