This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I mean... I only have 3 physical games for mine. Everything is digital now. I would not really be skeptical of a game setup that has no visible game boxes in 2026.

What did Rockstar mean by this?

That people download games now?

You used to be able to download games by recording an audio signal from the radio with a tape recorder.

Also, my knees hurt.

The games developed on oscilloscope (also the first games) would beg to differ

Calendar stores have whole aisles that also beg to differ.

School playgrounds, too, but they wouldn't know what the question means and would start talking about pokemon before returning to their game of tag.

It means that GTA6 will just be another interactive movie with little player agency.
