"Grand Theft Auto V" the highly anticipated new installment to Rockstar Games' most popular bad guy gaming franchise can't seem to stay out of the headlines. The franchise has been with gamers since before the first Xbox or even PlayStation and in all of that time, one of the most important factors in making the game a success or failure is what your character listens to after he's borrowed someone else's vehicle without asking (with no intention to return it). Thanks to some leaks on GTAForums, the soundtrack for the newest game has been made available to the public.
Digital PS3 pre-orders were available for pre-load overnight in the U.K. This led to die-hard fans discovering unknown information for the game via it's files. The most notable is the huge soundtrack that characters will be able to listen to while cruising the mean streets of Los Santos. Although the list isn't yet official, that hasn't stopped fans from passing around the list of supposed songs and artists, seen below.
The playlist covers a lot of ground in the music world. Everything from hip-hop, rap, pop, rock and others, according to IGN, is featured on the list. Tupac, Johnny Cash, Kendrick Lamar, Snoop Dogg and other artists you'd expect on a violent criminal action adventure title.
It's still unclear whether this list is the real deal or just a bit of wishful thinking from a game forum. Check out the list below and tell us what you think. Any favorite tracks? More importantly, are there any tracks you think are missing? I don't know about you but we see a precious lack of DMX.
