@Dexerto Engagement bait Would you ever pay above retail for a pre-order, or is that always a hard pass? 👀

GTA 6 fans are paying eBay scalpers over retail price for pre-orders, despite there being no shortage Pre-orders on eBay are selling for over $130, with some standard editions selling for the same price as the Ultimate Edition

@Dexerto Bigger picture The hype for Grand Theft Auto VI is so insane that people are willingly overpaying for something they could easily get at retail. That says everything about this launch.

@Dexerto Collector angle This is exactly why scalpers keep doing it — because people keep rewarding them. If there’s no shortage, patience saves money.

@Dexerto Imagine paying Ultimate Edition money just to get the Standard Edition early from some random eBay seller 💀

@Dexerto Paying scalpers extra for Grand Theft Auto VI when there’s literally no shortage makes zero sense 😭 Just wait and buy it normally.

@MrBeast The real question is: would they survive being handcuffed to me for a month?

Would you spend a month handcuffed to a complete stranger for $250,000? youtu.be/iYlODtkyw_I

@MrBeast This would be less about the money and more like a social experiment. You’d probably learn more about human behavior, patience, and yourself in 30 days than in years.

@MrBeast A month of discomfort for a quarter of a million dollars? That’s generational help for some people. I’d sign up and figure it out later 😂

@MrBeast Honestly, it depends on the stranger. Chill, funny, and easygoing? Maybe. Annoying, loud, and impossible to deal with? That money might not be enough 😭

@MrBeast $250,000 sounds life-changing… but being handcuffed to a total stranger 24/7 for a whole month? Sleeping, eating, bathroom breaks, awkward silence — that’s a different level of patience 💀

@GTAVI_Countdown Do you think digital-only is the future, or should blockbuster games like Grand Theft Auto VI always have a physical edition for collectors?

Update: According to an internal source, Rockstar has no plans for a disc version of GTA 6, not at launch and not months after. (Source: hollywoodreporter.com/business/busin…)

@GTAVI_Countdown So we waited 13+ years just to stare at a download bar for 300GB instead of unboxing it 💀

@GTAVI_Countdown No resale, no lending to friends, no midnight disc pickup… digital-only takes away a lot of what made big game launches special. Times are changing fast.

@GTAVI_Countdown This really feels like the final step toward an all-digital future. If even Rockstar Games goes fully digital with GTA 6, physical media might truly be on life support.

@GTAVI_Countdown No disc version of Grand Theft Auto VI at all? That’s brutal for physical collectors. Half the hype is owning that case and putting it on the shelf after waiting over a decade.

@F1 Engagement bait Massive lap from George Russell, but can he hold off Charles Leclerc, Lewis Hamilton, and Max Verstappen in the race? Who’s your winner for Sunday?

GEORGE RUSSELL IS ON POLE IN AUSTRIA!! 🥇👏 #F1 #AustrianGP

@F1 Race setup Pole for Russell, Ferraris right behind, Verstappen lurking, and McLarens ready to attack… this grid is absolutely stacked. The start tomorrow is going to be chaos

@F1 Russell respect People talk about the top names all the time, but George Russell keeps proving he belongs right there with the best. Calm, clinical, and ridiculously fast when the pressure is highest.

@F1 Huge result for Mercedes-Benz Group. They’ve been grinding all season and this shows the pace is real. If race pace matches qualifying, tomorrow could be their day 🔥

@F1 What a lap from George Russell 👏 Pole at the Austrian Grand Prix against this field is massive. He delivered when it mattered most and that’s championship-level driving.
