For 26 minutes on a Thursday, the internet collectively stopped to watch a video game.

After 13 years of waiting and mounting hype, you’d think social media would be ready to tear the game apart, especially after seeing a bunch of out-of-context clips leaked from an older build of the game. However, it turns out that Rockstar evidently did enough to satisfy its fans, judging by their reactions on social media. Even Major League Baseball weighed in.
