Uh, so, I’m going to be trustworthy with you guys proper off the bat; I’ve fallen right into a little bit of a bizarre rabbit gap with this text and I’m a little bit confused by what I’ve discovered.
So a web page for a recreation simply went stay on the PlayStation Retailer referred to as Grand Taking Ages VI, which is clearly purported to be taking the mick out of Grand Theft Auto VI.
It’s an actual itemizing, and you will discover it right here on Sony’s web site.
Whereas the itemizing could also be actual, I don’t assume the sport is… nor do I believe the corporate behind it’s both.
Should you Google the writer, Violarte, you’ll be greeted with their web site.
Fast couple of notes right here, the primary being that not one of the video games or awards they listing on their web site are actual. Only a bunch of made-up nonsense, all of which is seemingly AI-generated. Good begin.
Second word, attempt looking up any of these video games they listing on their web site. Should you do, you’ll be greeted by a bunch of various websites and publishers, similar to “Whoopee Video games” and “Strider Video games”.
Discover something bizarre about these websites? They appear the very same as Violarte’s web site, and so they additionally characteristic the identical faux video games and the identical faux awards.
I ended up discovering (no exaggeration) a minimum of a dozen different comparable websites, similar to Lyanda Video games, Chazzwazza Video games, Logia Video games, Hexpion Studio and TrueMyth Video games.
Even weirder nonetheless, I discovered one such web site that does appear to level to an actual developer: NewGen Studio.
Besides, for those who observe the developer hyperlink for his or her newest title Zombie Inside on Steam… you get taken to a distinct web page for an organization referred to as “Snail Video games USA”?
None of NewGen Studio’s video games are listed on Snail Video games’ portfolio on their official web site so, uh, is NewGen merely pretending to be affiliated with Snail Video games USA? Most likely not contemplating Snail Video games characteristic NewGen’s video games on their very own Steam web page.
Should you lookup the WHOIS registration outcomes for these pages, it’s all mysteriously both lacking or blocked from public consumption too.
Yeah, I’m gonna want some assist in the remark part of this one. On the very least I can let you know to not purchase “Grand Taking Ages VI” as a result of it in all probability isn’t an actual recreation.
How simple is it to get a recreation onto Sony’s web site anyway?
