Hey guys!
Welcome back to top 10 gaming.
I’m Kelly Paoli, and today we’re counting down the top 10 GTA easter eggs.
We’ve kept this list strictly to GTA V, although there’s a ton of easter eggs in
the other games in the franchise, so if you want more easter eggs from either this game
or the others, make sure you let us know in the comments below.
It was definitely hard to choose 10!
With that being said, let’s jump into our list.
10 Agent License Plate In the Deep Inside mission, Franklin has to
steal a JB 700.
Well, turns out the car has a license plate that reads 463NT, or rather, ‘agent’.
Which many believe is a reference to the unreleased game from Rockstar of the same name.
We talked a bit about Agent in our unreleased video games list, so you should hop on over
there afterwards to find out more about it.
But essentially it’s a game that’s status is a bit of a mystery, presumed to be cancelled,
that took place during the cold war and deals with “the world of counter intelligence,
espionage and political assassinations” set in the late 1970s.
9 Vinewood zombie If you’re the kind of person who likes to
stop and appreciate the finer details of a beautiful game like GTA V, you may have noticed
the various movie posters kicking around Los Santos, especially in Vinewood.
There’s one called Vinewood Zombie, with the tagline “eating brains in the land of
the brainless” and was apparently voted the worst film of 1981.
You can even get a t-shirt with the movie’s logo on it.
If you’re down on Vinewood Boulevard, there’s a chance you’ll run into Graham, a busker
of some sorts, who is cosplaying as a zombie from the film, and he has some sad starving-artist-esque
dialogue if you interact with him.
8 Ghost Girl One of the lesser interactive easter eggs
on our list, the Ghost Girl easter egg is located fairly north east on your map.
When you get to the location, you’ll have to wait till 11pm since she only appears from
then until midnight.
When she appears, you’ll see blood beneath her, with the word ‘Jock’ written in said
blood.
This stand for Jock Cranley, making the ghost Jolene Cranley-Evans, who was murdered by
her husband.
There’s also some nearby tents that around 10pm, you can hear faint screams and whispers
around.
Also, be warned, the closer you get, the faster she’ll disappear, so keep your distance!
7 Playboy Mansion Located at the north west tip of the city
before you get into the more rural areas of the map, the Playboy Mansion in Los Santos
is a replica of the actual Playboy Mansion in LA.
While there isn’t a specific mission that allows you to interact with the mansion - or
enter it - it’s still really fun to explore.
If you go at night time, you actually get to see people out and about, drinking and
partying.
And there’s even topless girls.
Cause, well, playboy.
And the grotto!
6 Altruist Cult Website We all know about the wonderfully hilarious
and mildly uncomfortable altruist cult that features some naked dudes with their wangs
out.
While you may have explore the locked off cult - and likely murdered it’s members
- there’s actually a little easter egg associated with the cult that you access from your phone
in the game.
If you type in www.altruistunited.com, you get their cult mandate, which is in morse
code, but many people out there on the inter webs have already translated it.
5 Frozen Alien During the opening mission set in the past,
when you’re being chased by police, if you ignore what the game is telling you to do,
you can catch sight of a frozen alien.
Before you get to the bridge, there’s a frozen river, and if you drive onto it, you’ll
see an alien frozen beneath it, right underneath the bridge.
The game has a ton of alien references, and many believe that there’s a greater easter
egg all of these clues lead up to, especially with the recent discovery of alien objects
hidden in the game’s code that proved to actually be used in our next number.
4 Hidden Alien Mission So earlier this summer, players found hidden
alien objects in the code of the game after a recent update went live.
Through more digging, it was discovered that they’re actually parts of a very hard to
activate mission that players can only get when on GTA online.
Essentially, you have to deliver alien eggs that you get from a UFO crash site.
This was found through some hard core digging through code, with the only ways to activate
it organically are seemingly entirely random or through a series of unknown yet-to-be-discovered
steps.
While some think there’s still a lot more behind the whole Mount Chiliad Mystery, it’s
nice that a few questions are being answered, even if those answers have raised even more
questions.
Ah, aliens.
3 No Country for Old Men Here’s one that movie buffs will really
enjoy.
Or coen brothers fans.
Or cormac mccarthy fans.
Anyway, the drug deals gone wrong crime scene from the novel/film is actually one of the
random events you can happen upon that isn’t a part of the main narrative, located at the
base of mount chiliad.
When you discover it, you’ll see a few gang members who are dead, plus a few survivors
from the cross fire brawl.
If you kill the survivors, you can nab a briefcase of cash, and when you escape, two pickups
will chase you.
You’ll have to get out of your car and shoot em up in order to complete the event.
2 Big Foot So this one’s a little multi-faceted.
There’s always been rumours since San Andreas the Big Foot, or the Sasquatch, existed in
the world of GTA.
And in GTA V there’s a few instances where you can interact with this mysterious big
foot.
When you’re playing the Predator mission where you have ti use a thermal scope on a
sniper rifle to find the O’Neil brothers at night, there’s the potential to spot
Bigfoot moving amongst the forest.
And in Strangers and Freaks mission The Last One, Franklin hunts down a potential big foot,
which turns out to be a guy in a bigfoot suit.
There’s also a golden peyote plant that lets you turn into a Sasquatch, and even gives
you the opportunity to fight teen wolf if you roar in the right place at the right time.
1 Infinite 8 Serial Killer Wanna track down a serial killer in GTA V?
Well, while you may never see The Infinity Killer in person in the game, you can track
down clues and piece together the mystery of this man named Merle Abrahams who killed
8 people and buried their bodies in 1999.
While police did eventually find him, players managed to piece together all of the strange
nursery rhymes he left scattered across Los Santos, and even found his house in Sandy
Shores, and are made up of various riddles and psychotic ramblings.
If you follow the clues from his riddles, you’ll find the bodies.
There we have it friends!
