Following the GTA 6 trailer, Rockstar Games is once again threatened by an individual who makes ever more ridiculous demands. But this time, our man has outdone himself.
Last December, GTA 6 set the Internet ablaze by revealing its first trailer. It was the subject of all the rumors, but it finally came to light in 2023. In it, we could find a certain number of references and nods to Internet culture, viral videos, unusual events, etc. All of this was caricatured in this trailer, and it upset one person in particular who continues to make threats against Rockstar.
Rockstar is threatened again for the GTA 6 trailer
Our star of the day is none other than the “Joker from Florida”, or Lawrence Sullivan as his real name is. You’ve probably heard of him if you follow the news around GTA 6. In the trailer, we can see a character who looks exactly like him. He wasn’t the only one to notice it, but for him, it’s totally unacceptable. He therefore took the opportunity to create controversy and demand millions from the studio. The latest news was that he wanted $5 million in compensation. Otherwise, he would sue the firm behind GTA 6. But he outbid, and it went far, very far.
This time he wants $10 million. Well, so far, nothing abnormal, he continues on his path of demanding more and more money. He filmed himself on camera again to detail his demands, but a new threat appeared. He explains that he is going to do “ leave the psychiatric ward » the GTA 6 hacker, probably the one responsible for the huge leak of 2022. The goal being to hack Rockstar again. Obviously, you shouldn’t take it seriously, and it’s above all a way of riding the hype of the new opus. Afterwards, we also understand that it is not pleasant to find ourselves in the GTA 6 trailer which has more than 165 million views, but the way of saying it is… debatable.
My birthday is January 11th. If you don’t contact me three days after my birthday, I want 10 million dollars. 10 million dollars for my suffering and pain, for defamation of a character, stop playing games with me.
Keep playing with me, I’m going to get this kid out of the psych ward now, and show you the real joker. I’m going to take this kid out of the psych ward with my computer and we’re going to hack your system again.
