There’s a lot of music in Grand Theft Auto V that has nothing to do with the game’s radio stations, and now you can hear it all in a single place. Rockstar Games released “The Music of Grand Theft Auto V” as a three-volume collection, available now on both iTunes and Spotify (for the most part; see below). For those that want to buy a digital copy, it’s $9.99 for an individual volume or $24.99 for all three together.

The first volume – titled “Original Music” – is a collection of track from an assortment of artists, all of whom debuted brand new recordings in GTA V. The second volume, “The Score,” is an album-length mix of the game’s dynamic score, which features contributions from Woody Jackson, Tangerine Dream, and Alchemist & Ohno. All of these tracks are mixed together by DJ Shadow, as Rockstar recently revealed. The third volume, “The Soundtrack,” is the only one that isn’t available on Spotify; it’s a selection of cuts pulled from the game’s various radio stations.

You can find volume one right here on Spotify and volume two right here. If you’re looking for the iTunes link, that one is right here.

How to sell cars in GTA 5

There are a lot of ways to make money in the world of Grand Theft Auto V, but none are more apt that stealing and selling cars. Not only is it a pastime befitting its namesake, it's also a fun way to earn a few bucks while roaming the streets of Los Santos. There's just one way to sell cars in GTA 5, but thankfully, offloading your stolen goods is a very straightforward process.
Steal a car
Before you can even think about selling a vehicle, you're going to have to get your hands on one. Common cars will sell for at least $1,000 each, but it's worth your time to seek out expensive luxury and sports cars. Here's a good rule of thumb to follow -- the nicer the car looks, the more valuable it usually is. We've had good luck finding expensive vehicles on the streets around Rockford Hills, but head to any upscale shopping area and you're bound to see a few.

Once you've found your vehicle of interest, simply hijack or hot-wire it and evade the police. Try to do as little damage to it as possible, since cars in better condition fetch a higher price. Most of the time, you can simply speed down the road and find a quiet hiding spot in an alley to shake the low-effort manhunt. As soon as the coast is clear and you have no stars, you're ready to offload your new ride.

The fastest cars in GTA 5

Half the fun of Grand Theft Auto V and GTA Online is cruising around Los Santos in lightning-fast supercars. There's no shortage of incredible vehicles available to players, but trying to figure out which is the fastest isn't as straightforward as you'd think. Some might dominate in a drag race, yet end up in a ditch if you put them on a winding track. Others might excel around hairpin turns, but lack in overall horsepower. The following list is based strictly on each car's top speed, as trying to rate other traits -- such as handling and cornering abilities -- is highly subjective and up to personal preference. While we eagerly await a new fleet of cars to steal and race in Grand Theft Auto 6, here are the 10 fastest cars in Grand Theft Auto V.

4 video game news stories that shaped the industry’s future in 2022

Living room with Microsoft Xbox Series X (L) and Sony PlayStation 5 home video game consoles alongside a television and soundbar.

With the video game industry in constant growth mode, it's rare we ever get through a year without some massive bombshell announcement with huge implications for the future. In 2021, for instance, we saw Epic waging war against Apple’s business practices, Valve disrupting hardware with its Steam Deck announcement, and a harrowing Activision Blizzard scandal that acted as a tipping point for the industry and its often difficult working conditions.

The news didn’t slow down in 2022 -- if anything, it escalated. The Activision Blizzard revelation in particular had something of a snowball effect this year, rolling its way into several major threads. Between high-profile acquisitions and a push for unionization, this year very much felt like a direct continuation of 2021. Nothing was a one-off story, but rather part of a historical moment that could make the 2020s the most pivotal decade in gaming history when all is said and done.
