Stephen A. Smith Dreams of Being in the Latest Video Game
In a surprising turn of events, renowned sports presenter Stephen A. Smith has expressed his desire to appear in a popular video game. Smith, known for his charismatic on-screen persona, has hinted at the possibility of collaborating with Rockstar Games for their upcoming release, Grand Theft Auto VI.
The idea was sparked when a user on the X platform (formerly known as Twitter) suggested adding a radio station hosted by Smith to the next installment of GTA. In response, the presenter enthusiastically expressed his interest in creating something akin to Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.
Released in 2002, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is the fourth main installment in the beloved video game series.
While Stephen A. Smith is widely recognized for his sports commentary, his potential involvement in a video game has generated tremendous excitement among fans. Comments flooded in, requesting the inclusion of Smith as a character within the game and even proposing the idea of him hosting his own radio station.
The highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI is set to be released in 2025, although an exact date has not yet been confirmed.
It’s worth noting that the Grand Theft Auto series allows players to navigate through vast open worlds, travelling by car and tuning into various customizable radio stations. Smith’s suggestion aligns perfectly with this aspect of the game, envisioning himself as a radio host within its virtual world.
At present, it remains uncertain whether Rockstar Games will consider Smith’s proposal. However, it is important to mention that the presenter is currently focused on his acting career, regularly appearing in the television series General Hospital. Smith made his acting debut in 2007 and currently portrays the character of Bricks.
Although the game does not always feature the authentic voices of well-known personalities, the overwhelming enthusiasm from fans might just sway Rockstar Games into collaborating with Smith for the portrayal of a character in Grand Theft Auto VI. Ultimately, the future remains uncertain, but fans of the game are certainly keeping their fingers crossed!
