Random Grand Theft Auto Fan Theories That'll Blow Your Mind (12 items)

(#3) The Epsilon Group Is A Spoof On Scientology

At this point, saying Epsilon Group is a spoof on scientology is more of a unconfirmed fact than a ridiculous fan theory, but nevertheless, it is still interesting. Rockstar Games even went as far as to release a hilarious parody site ahead of the game's release. It might not be the most conventional piece of marketing out there but it is certainly unique to the irreverent game developer.
The over-the-top spoof website is not shy about asking for money and even has a comical tagline: "Many have been called. Five have been chosen."
(#10) You’re Never Driving Over the Speed Limit
Gamers regularly wonder why the police officers in the game won’t chase you down for poor driving when you’re blazing up and down roads at a high rate of speed. This theory’s creator suggests that In the GTA universe, every second is one minute, hence why the day turns to night so quickly when playing the game. He says that in actuality you’re driving slowly, which is why coppers never chance after you.
(#11) GTA Is so Violent Because Its Universe Is A Collection Of Islands
The creator of this theory proposes that Island Nations (e.g. Japan and Great Britain) have violent histories because as island nations, they had fewer resources and conquered other places to attain them. He says that perhaps GTA’s world, along with Manhunt and Red Dead Redemption, has so little regard for human life because violence is simply a part of their culture.
(#4) Some Rockstar Games Are Set in the Same Universe as GTA

Redditor DrTatertots suggests that it essentially boils down like this.
Red Dead Revolver = the 1880s
Red Dead Redemption = 1911
L.A. Noir = 1947
They point out that GTA has multiple universes – 2D (GTA and GTA 2), 3D (GTA 3 and its spin-offs) and HD (GTA IV and GTA V). Red Dead Redemption is tied to HD, through the "Red Dead" book seen in GTA V. They further support this point with great notes such as the fact that Bullworth Academy from the video game Bully is mentioned on the radio in GTA IV.
(#9) The Protagonists of Grand Theft Auto V Represent Physical Forms of Money
Redditor Choppy_LaStatch explained why they think Trevor, Michael, and Franklin are representative of “Gold, Silver and the Greenback, respectively.” He points out that Rockstar Games stated during a GTA V press conference leading up to the game's release that a large focus of the game will be money. From the color that covers the screen when each character’s special ability is activated (Franklin/Green, Trevor/Gold, and Michael/Silver), to other details, like Michael having a few silver hairs and enjoying black and white films. It’s really well-thought out, and the theory isn’t limited to color schemes. It touches on the characters’ personalities as well.
(#7) All of Rockstar’s Non-GTA Games Are Just Entertainment in the GTA Universe
The creator of this theory points to Red Dead Redemption, Max Payne, L.A. Noire, and Rockstar Games Presents Table Tennis for support. In this scenario, the fact that there’s a book titled ‘Red Dead’ visible in GTA supports the concept, but the rest is speculative, suggesting L.A. Noire is a TV show, Rockstar Games Presents Table Tennis is a sports broadcast, and Max Payne is a movie. It’s an interesting idea, at the very least.
