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

Posted by timothy on from the your-sense-of-profundity-may-vary dept.

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?

    Unemployment drops to new lows as millions of former job seekers now search for a jetpack that might not be real, which is supposedly hidden in a mountain in a computer game.

    All the other jobs are being filled by H1-B's. Looking for the jetpack is all we have left.

    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.
