18 Months On, Grand Theft Auto V's Mount Chiliad Mystery Remains Unsolved

An anonymous reader writes One of GTA V's juiciest easter eggs is one that gamers have still yet to crack: the symbols on San Andreas' huge mountain that seem to suggest a jetpack is buried somewhere within it. As the game's PC launch — and presumable final uncovering as modders raid the game's code — nears, a new article looks at the lengths conspiracy theorists have gone in a bid to locate it, waiting entire in-game lunar cycles at points of interest on the map, trying to complete the game without killing anybody and even attempting to trigger earthquakes in Los Santos. Will it all have been for nothing?

Yeah you would think that but you would be wrong. After 3 came vice city and San Andreas. Currently V is the 7th major GTA.

Not quite: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Theft_Auto_(series)#Games

It seems that they reserve the numbered entries in the series for those which have a completely new game engine and that they don't count any of the handheld games as a major release. Depending on how you want to count the different games, Grand Theft Auto V could be the 15th installment in the series.

Not really, no. They have a lot in common, but GTA V's engine is a lot more capable.

PewDiePie is #1 in subscribers on YouTube with 35 million and played a major role as himself in two episodes on South Park, that you've never heard of him probably means your interests don't overlap much. Just like I'm sure there's some big Bollywood celebrities that I have no idea who is, no idea who the other guy is though or if he's got any claim to fame outside his game but PewDiePie certainly qualifies, he's not a superstar but I know many celebrities with less claim to fame.
