Grand Theft Auto V isn’t out until September 17, 2013, but you can busy yourself with poring over the game’s list of Xbox 360 Achievements until then, assuming, of course, that you’re willing to read them really slowly. The thankfully spoiler-free Cheevo listing is mostly focused on the single-player story portion of the game, though there are 17 specifically connected to GTA Online, which launches in October.

There are a few intriguing nuggets of information to be teased out of the Xbox360Achievements.org listing, and vague details of in-game content that Rockstar hadn’t yet discussed. “From Beyond the Stars” awards players 15 GS for collecting and returning “all spaceship parts.” Another 10 GS is yours when you successfully deliver a living bail bond target for “Wanted: Alive or Alive,” suggesting that one of the diversion activities in GTA5 encourages you to embrace your inner Dog the Bounty Hunter.

Other Achievements confirm the return of stunt jumps and rampages, as well as some of the presumably money-earning properties that you can own. Then there’s the stranger stuff, such as the “Out of Your Depth” Achievement, which is accompanied by the text “You’re gonna need a bigger boat” (a Jaws quote) and a little thumbnail of a shark; or the “Kifflom!” Achievement, which awards you a whopping 30GS once you “complete your path to enlightenment.”

One of the most popular games on Steam has hit a snag for Steam Deck players. Grand Theft Auto 5 and Grand Theft Auto Online are no longer supported for Valve's PC handheld.

Rockstar Games explains in a post for Update 1.69 (and spotted by The Verge), that its game won't be supported by Steam Deck due to the integration of BattlEye Anti-Cheat for Grand Theft Auto Online. The goal was to put a limit on cheating in its open-world MMO, but that came at the cost of Steam Deck support.

If you were hoping Grand Theft Auto 6 would launch day one on Xbox Game Pass, you're out of luck. Take-Two Interactive execs have been hesitant to launch the company's games on subscription services on Xbox Game Pass, and that will continue to be the case, according to the CEO's recent comments.

In an interview with Gamesindustry.biz ahead of the company's latest financial report, CEO Strauss Zelnick candidly said that while he believes the addition of the Call of Duty franchise will push players to the service for a bit, it won't affect Take-Two's release strategy.
