There’s no doubt that Rockstar Games’ Grand Theft Auto 5 is a beloved title in an already highly-acclaimed franchise, as it was the best selling game of the 2010s. The absolute freedom afforded to players in such a large sandbox world has given the game staying power far beyond its 2013 release, as seen with a video that recently garnered attention on Twitter featuring a particularly flashy cutscene entrance. The clip uploaded and pinned by AntoMayo on February 12 showcases Grand Theft Auto 5 co-protagonist Michael De Santa crashing a blimp into the side of the Galileo Observatory in Vinewood Hills so that he can enter a cutscene conversation with FIB agent Dave Norton....

The Halo franchise has long been associated with quality: engrossing gameplay, poignant music, and an epic sci-fi story. In fact, Halo: Combat Evolved was largely responsible for introducing the first person shooter (FPS) genre to home consoles with Microsoft’s original Xbox in 2001. Since then, Halo’s protagonist, the Master Chief, has become synonymous with the Xbox brand and is the most recognizable character in Microsoft’s game catalogue. With all of its success, very few manage to point out specific flaws in the original Halo game even though they do exist....
