Everything Wrong With GamingSins: EWW GTA V

Ever since GamingSins came up on YouTube and started to sin videogames just like CinemaSins sins movies, I wanted to see a video in which GamingSins would sin GTA V. When I saw that they finally posted it, I was so excited to see it. Unfortunatly, after seeing the three videos my enthusiasm died away the same way it did after seeing Batman V. Superman. Here's Everything Wrong With GamingSins: EWW GTA V.

Usually at the start of all their videos.
GamingSins warns us of sarcasm instead of spoilers. (+1)

Sin 1: "Would they not have to brace themselves if it wasn't on a timer?"
Brad couldn't blow the bomb up remotely. If he were to do that, then he would say "Brace yourselves!" after he placed the bomb on the door. That's what he meant. (+1)

Sin 2: "We didn't steal this car."
We didn't steal Roman's taxi at the beginning of GTA IV either. (+1)

Sin 3: "Trevor breaks a perfectly good window."
We break perfectly good car windows all the time in every GTA and Non-GTA game. What makes this one any different? (+1)

Sin 4: "..., if you can get past a train, then cops stop chasing you."
The cops weren't chasing us at all. (+1)

Sin 5: "Instead of heading to cover to avoid the obvious sniper, Michael decides it's a good idea to stand out in the open."
This is all part of a plan as we learn later in the game. Michael was out in the open on purpose. (+1)

Sin 8: "Michael: 'He sits on his a** all day, smoking dope and jerking off while he plays that f***ing game.' Michael unintentionally echoes how the world sees GTA's core audience."
I'm pretty sure Michael is referring to most hardcore gamers, period. (+1)

Sin 10: "Almost every car we steal in this game has its keys in the ignition."
No, there are no keys. We hot-wire almost all cars that we steal in the game. (+1)

Sins 11, 84, 129, 169: "[Character] would be good at GamingSins."
Certainly better than you guys. (+4)

Sin 12: "Lamar: 'Oh s***! The one-time!' GTA criminals are always surprised when they hear a siren."
Any criminal, game or in real life, can be surprised when they hear a siren. (+1)

Sins 15, 20, 21, 39, 40, 55, 57, 61, 88, 89, 119, 158
I'm pretty sure that you're supposed to sin the game's plotline, not its mechanics. (+12)

Sin 17: "Even though Lamar's obviously the untrustworthy one, Simeon assumes that Franklin stole the bike."
All Simeon said was that he heard that Franklin took the bike. Lamar couldn't have been the one that told him that. (+1)

Sin 18: "I wonder how long Micheal was waiting in the back of the car. Did he know this was going to happen? If so, then how?"
At the end of Franklin's first mission, we see Jimmy (Michael's son) buying the car. Knowing that Jimmy wouldn't bother with making his payments, Michael knew that the car would be repoed, so that's why he waited in the back of the car. I don't know how long he waited though. (+1)

Sin 23: "Obvious infidelity clue is obvious."
What makes two tennis rackets near the door an infidelity clue? More importantly, what makes Micheal assume that his wife is "getting it on" with the tennis coach right now when he sees the rackets? (+1)

Sin 26: "Michael's bones must be made of adamantium; other wise they'd be broken."
In the game, we see Michael, Franklin, Trevor, and our online character take many bullets to the body and walk it off like it was nothing. I'm pretty sure a baseball bat to the arm would not have harmed them either. (+1)

Sin 28: "Is this a**hole the embodiment of some programmer sterotype I'm not aware of?"
I'm not sure about the stereotype. All I can think about is a person wearing nerdy glasses and using an old computer. (+1)

Sin 36: "[Jimmy] didn't pay for his TV, so it's not his. It's Michale's."
The TV was given to Jimmy as a gift, so it's Jimmy's. Another sin for misspelling Michael's name. (+2)

Sin 42: "Lester: 'Can you take the photographs?...' This must look really shady. [Michael]'s staring fixedly right at the alarm."
True, but he's not taking any pictures, like Lester asked him to. (+1)

Sin 43: "Michael picks enthusiasm over hacking ability."
It's up to the players to decide who to choose for the hacker. Michael was just saying that Rickie was enthusiastic. (+1)

Sin 49: "When people are high, they usually don't announce it the the whole world like this."
I've seen people do that in movies and on TV, mostly the news. I don't see how it's unusual. (+1)

Sin 53: "...we're adding the another sin because [Cheng and his associate] didn't get out [of the icebox] earlier."
There was a massive gunfight going on while the two were inside. If I had a choice between getting filled with lead and getting hypothermia, I would pick the latter. (+1)

Sin 54: "And now we're adding another because this a**hole's still high."
Assuming Cheng was smoking pot, a trip like that would last about two hours (I did the research). The mission itself is about ten minutes long, at most, if you don't skip the cutscenes. Unless Cheng smoked over an hour before the mission started, there's no reason why GamingSins would add this sin. (+1)

Sin 58: "Amanda (Michael's wife) forgets the name they've been going by for the last ten years."
It's not that she forgot, it's that she didn't care. (+1)

Sin 60: "What the hell kind of city is this?"
Like Los Angeles, only twice as corrupt. (+1)

Sin 67: "At what point in time did they say, 'You know what we need in our guidelines? We need to allow people to shove a torch up someone's bum'?"
I'm not sure if the guidelines specifically say that. Karen (the girl in the video) is saying that the IAA can physically assault someone since it's in their guidelines. (+1)

Sin 72: "...Trevor sounds something like Rick."
Rick who? GamingSins, if you're going to reference someone, you need to be more specific. (+1)

Sin 72: "Why is Fabien always in the house? Does he live there or something?"
No, he just appears so often, maybe even more since Michael had scared the tennis coach away. (+1)

Sin 74: "The rest of the game should've been in this mode. How about a mod, Rockstar? One that doesn't suck?"
First of all, Rockstar isn't the one who makes the mods. Secondly, not all mods suck; I've manage to find a few that I liked that didn't corrupt my game. And finally, if the rest of the game were to be in this mode, then GTA V would just be a discount Saints Row IV. (+3)

Sin 77: "Trevor got those photos to Ron awfully quickly..."
What generation are you living in, GamingSins? We are able take pictures and send/receive them at the drop of a hat. Plus, it took like five minutes from Trevor sending the photos to Ron calling him. Even a old phone (with a camera) can send photos as fast as that. (+1)

Sin 81: "What a funny joke; the 25+ year old man doesn't like baths...(That was sarcasm)"
Thank you for pointing that out. Also, if you hadn't warned us about sarcasm instead of spoilers in the beginning of the video, then I would be really confused (that was sarcasm as well). (+1)

Sin 83: "[The dealer] manages, by sticking his knife into a brick of cocaine, to create a  perfectly straight strip on the knife's centre."
Some of the knives I've seen have a grove in the centre. That's how the cocaine was able to form in a straight line. (+1)

Sin 86: "Michael has become a sarcastic, whiny background character at this point of the game."
He was just asking what everyone was doing here. He wasn't sarcastic or whining. (+1)

Sin 90: "And that's the end of the story."
That's because the player arrived at the destination before Norton could finish. If the player could have waited a bit longer, then we would have heard more of the story. (+1)

Sin 92: "Waterboarding: Trevor's doing it wrong. And I'd know!"
How is he doing it wrong? I did research and it is shown that Trevor's doing it right. (+1)

Sin 94: "Lester's supposed to be in hospital. How'd he get here? I don't see any sort of transport."
Lester came here by taxi. Your version of the game didn't show it. (+1)

Sin 95: "Also, how'd he know that this was going on right now?"
At the beginning of the mission, Trevor said that he called Lester. Lester knew something was up so that's why he got out of the hospital. Lester just happened to show up at just the right time. (+1)

Sins 97-110
You're supposed to sin the main plot, not the side stories. (+14)

Sin 97: "*sarcastic tone*...there's nothing conspicuous about driving your white car onto the beach and shooting two people."
So you're saying he should have driven a black car onto the beach instead, right? (+1)

Sin 111: "Taking off a sin for 'Little Pricks.'"(That's the name on a garbage truck)
Oh, so you sin Weazel News and Ammu-nation for being such cringeworthy names but remove a sin for the name "Little Pricks"? (+1)

Sin 118: "And they raced through the night, never needing to restock on fuel."
We never actually did have to restock on fuel at all in the game. That's what the fuel mod is for. (+1)

Sin 120: "Franklin: 'After all the crap we've been through, man, you got me right back where I've been anyway.' Well, except you now have a house. And all that money from the diamond heist. Basically, Franklin's and ungrateful a**hole"
Franklin is just saying that he's back to where he was job-wise. (+1)

Sin 122: "Driving with your bonnet open."
That is a glitch, which doesn't count. If glitches do count as sins, then GamingSins's video of Assassin's Creed: Unity would have a lot more sins. (+1)

Sin 125: "I wonder how often Trevor plays static on his TV. Can't be good for his energy bill."
Knowing Trevor, I don't think he cares about his bills at all. (+1)

Sin 127: "Franklin, like Disney princesses, is able to understand animals."
You saying that only Disney princesses can understand animals. Characters like Eliza Thornberry, N from Pokemon, and Fluttershy are able to talk to animals too, and they aren't a princess or belong to Disney. (+1)

Sin 128: "None of the O'Neils are wearing a seatbelt, but all survive the horrific nosedive off a cliff."
The players in the game don't wear seatbelts either, and most of them survive crashes worse than this. (+1)

Sin 130: "At this point of the game, Franklin's become a whiney a**hole"
Franklin wasn't whining. I don't think GamingSins knows the meaning of the word "whining." (+1)

Sin 132: "They got over there awfully quickly..."
I checked. They had plenty of time to go over there. (+1)

Sin 134: "Alarm went off when there wasn't a robbery ONCE. This is a boy-who-cried-wolfness gone mad."
Who said that the alarm didn't trigger more than once when there wasn't a robbery? Perhaps the Blaine County bank's alarm is broken, and the repairman cannot fix it properly. (+1)

Sin 137: "In the word of Grand Theft Auto, miniguns reduce fences to dust."
Do you even know what miniguns are capable of? I've seen one dicapitate a tree. I don't think the minigun would reduce fences to dust in the game like you said, but it can make them pretty close to it. Bonus sin for misspelling "world." (+2)

Sin 139: "Man who tortures people seems to have a problem dropping the f*** bomb."
I don't think profanity and torturing people are related in any way. Plus swearing is f***ing unprofessional. (+2)

Sin 142: "[Debra] shouts at Trevor instead of calling the police."
Wouldn't that be the first thing you do when someone comes into your house uninvited? (+1)

Sin 144: "GTA wusses out and doesn't show us the violence,..."
We see Trevor stomp the life out of a leader of a bike gang, torture a man, and a lot of other crazy stuff when he doesn't have a gun. Showing us the violence would be going too far, even for GTA. (+1)

Sin 145: "What kind of Syrup is red? If I were a simple-minded country bumpkin in the US of A, I would've guessed tomato ketchup."
Strawberry syrup is red. Also, ketchup and syrup look different, so that's what made Wade thought the blood was syrup. (+1)

Sin 153: "Franklin should be WAY more pissed off."
Franklin mentions how he worked hard for nothing when he was in the hood. He's used to stuff like this. (+1)

Sin 155: "Exercising at night? Outside? In this part of town? Bad idea, ladies."
It doesn't matter, since this mission can be triggered at any part of the day. (+1)

Sin 157: "Currently-hanging-upside-down Michael had a handgun, but he didn't use it until now."
Franklin gave him a gun. (+1)

Sin 159: "Associate producer is meaningless."
So is being a YouTuber, and yet almost everyone out there think it's a job. (+1)

Sin 163: "...we're giving it a sin because she's such a b****."
You too would be angry when someone breaks your laptop trying to hit a yoga teacher on the head. (+1)

Sin 164: "But it was only a two minute session!"
The jerk of a psychiatrist didn't know what to do with a dysfunctional family, so he ended the session early before things could get out of hand. (+1)

Sin 167: "Lamar: 'I'ma come up to the Unicorn and get horny on your office supplies.' We don't know what that means, and we don't wanna know."
The "Unicorn" is referring to the Vanilla Unicorn, and the "office supplies" might be referring to the strippers. (+1)

Sin 169: "This is surprisingly insecure for the Union Repository."
They needed to steal a big drill in order to get through the thick concrete wall underground. What makes it insecure? Another sin for misspelling "Depository." (+2)

Sin 171: "*Dora the Explorer 'We did it!' song is playing*"
Ironic that a song from a little kids show is playing in a videogame rated Mature. (+1)

Sin 172: "Anybody else feel like that was a bit too easy?"
It depends if you chose the correct people, have the correct weapons, and have a good experience playing games like GTA V. (+1)

Sin 173: "[Devin Weston]'s fingered Michelle Obama."
Barack Obama isn't the president in GTA V. It's Joe Lawton. (+1)

Sin 176: "...Trevor's going to have to walk all the way back to Los Santos."
Or all the way back to Sandy Shores. Plus, this is GTA. He can just simply steal a car. (+1)

Bonus Round!
GamingSins doesn't sin:
*Trevor for killing Johnny Klebitz (+1)
*The fact that Ron doesn't like using his cellphone despite being the one who called after the mission "Mr. Phillips." (+1)
*The torture scene in the mission "By the Book" (and no, not because it didn't contain a lap dance)(+1)
*The fact that there was no way that Debra was able to clean and/or replace everything in her apartment when she returned while Trevor was away. (+1)
*The car-blows-up-after-falling-off-a-cliff cliche at the end of the game. (+1)
