the 'can i play gta 6 on my...' tiktok trend is peak 2026 energy
Insider Gaming just put up a piece on this and I can't stop scrolling through the videos. The whole thing started with some guy asking if he can play GTA 6 on his pregnancy test. Now it's everywhere. People are holding up microwaves, graphing calculators, their cat, a toaster, you name it.
The joke obviously is that Rockstar's only confirmed PS5 and Xbox Series X|S for November 19. No PC, no last gen, no Switch 2, nothing else. So the meme is basically a giant middle finger to anyone hoping for a port. And honestly it's the funniest way I've seen the community cope with the wait.
Some of these are getting really creative. Saw one where a guy hooked up an old CRT monitor to a potato and asked if it would run. Another had a smart fridge with the trailer playing on the little screen. The comments are always the same: "yeah bro 60fps easy" or "might need to download more RAM."
It's also lowkey highlighting how many people still don't know there's no PC version announced. Every other comment is someone genuinely asking if it'll be on Steam day one. Rockstar's silence on that front is making the meme even better.
I'm just glad the community found something to laugh about instead of another round of trailer 3 conspiracy theories. We've got four months until launch, might as well enjoy the chaos.
