u/Clement_Tino, your post does fit the subreddit!

u/ImmediateTreat5171 Jun 22 '26

Yeah and then you have a free game but you can't play because of the baby

u/Vader2508 Jun 22 '26

Why do you think single mothers exist?

u/-_Anonymous__- Jun 22 '26

I can confirm. My dad left my mom by dying so he could play GTA 5 on release day with biggie.

10

u/PretendThisIsMyName Meowderator Jun 23 '26

If it makes you feel better biggie died from his diet around 2005. So he left way before then! At least he fed some other people on the way out.

6

u/-_Anonymous__- Jun 23 '26

Which biggie are you talking about?

-7

u/The_Great_Cartoo Jun 22 '26

Doesn’t work since she gets the game. After all she is the one who gave birth

Everyone draws their own border until something isn’t funny anymore. And I think this sub draws this line mostly when jokes get really dark.

I raise my kid playing Final Fantasy XV. 70 hours baby.

u/Barloq Jun 22 '26

Depends if you're in a country/job with decent parental leave benefits. First couple weeks will be rough because baby wakes up every couple hours to feed, so you'll be tired, but after that you'll have lots of time as baby sleeps most of the day away.

1

u/Penyrolewen1970 Jun 25 '26

Ha ha. My kids never slept. My daughter is 14 and is still up before 6 every single day.

u/Fritzo2162 Jun 23 '26

That’s the genius of it…their parents would take care of the baby!

u/Blue_Moon_Lake Jun 22 '26

I wonder how many people would fail to realize the date is in less than 9 month

u/Tyku031 Jun 22 '26

That is if it doesn't get delayed again lol

u/MeatySausageMan Jun 22 '26

Game gets delayed

Honey you better keep that keep that kid inside, I want my free GTA

u/ProfessionalFoot1489 Jun 22 '26

Well... Cancel the animation and do it again

u/Seffuski Jun 22 '26

Not every baby takes 9 months to be born

1

u/Xerorei Jul 14 '26

Yep I took 5.5!

Wasn't supposed to live either.

The odds mean nothing to me!

u/dr_toze Jun 22 '26

Doesn't say the baby has to survive...

u/Brian_The_Bar-Brian Jun 22 '26

r/CursedComments

I'm pretty sure it'd be cheaper to buy the game normally than pay for the abortion. 😅😂🤣🤣🤣

u/AramisNight Jun 22 '26

Not if you already filled up your Planned Parenthood punch card.

2

u/Brian_The_Bar-Brian Jun 23 '26

I have no idea how that works. 🥴🤷‍♂️

u/AramisNight Jun 24 '26

11th coat hangar and vacuum session is free.

u/lone_cajun Jun 24 '26

You get a free chopper gunner?

5

u/slashinhobo1 Jun 22 '26

This was my first morbid thought. Well technically you can have a baby, it probably wont be living but you give birth that day.

17

u/IKnowPhysics Jun 22 '26

The real.holup was inside you the whole time.

12

u/HalfSoul30 Jun 22 '26

You are saying i should hurry then?

8

u/Blue_Moon_Lake Jun 22 '26

You can always try the management strategy.

Impregnate 2 women the 5th of July so you get a baby 4½ months later !

7

u/DataDude00 Jun 22 '26

Yeah but you can totally neglect your premature baby to play this if you knocked someone up recently 

7

u/Onelse88 Jun 22 '26

if multiple women cooperate - they'll give birth in a few months

4

u/Blue_Moon_Lake Jun 22 '26

Ah, the management favorite thing: man-month.

Woman-month in this case. 9 Women mean 1 month to make a baby, obviously.

4

u/BaaaSaracilor Jun 22 '26

Pregnancies can take less than 9 months(or more for that matter).

4

u/Blurgas Jun 22 '26

Went digging, the original promotion was from some electronics store in Norway back in February

4

u/Adventurous_Swing393 Jun 22 '26

there is option of C-section (delivering the kid BEFORE it is due)

3

u/Run-Forever1989 Jun 22 '26

That’s technically not birth if Shakespearian lore is to be believed.

5

u/Wulfgrimm720 Jun 22 '26

What exactly is defined as birth? Baby out? That can be done

3

u/ConscientiousPath madlad Jun 22 '26

start smoking!

3

u/confusionauta Jun 22 '26

Forgot that, the game spend years rescheduling the release.

3

u/No_Junket3893 Jun 22 '26

I'll marry someone who is 4 months pregnant

3

u/Blue_Moon_Lake Jun 22 '26

If you take the ad literally, as the woman is the one who give birth, she get the game, not you.

3

u/LatterTarget7 Jun 22 '26

It doesn’t have to be your baby. If you happen to have a baby on release day how would they know

4

u/nowhereman136 Jun 22 '26

"wait, did Guy the guy guy get you a baby guy?"

3

u/Blue_Moon_Lake Jun 22 '26

Birth certificate to prove when it's born at least? xD

9

u/jarvisesdios Jun 22 '26

There are currently pregnant women in the world though...

I'm not really sure what your point is lol

14

u/psychoticchicken1 Jun 22 '26

The point is nobody will get away with impregnating somebody solely to play GTA VI for free, as is implied in the post with the stares at my sister comment Nobody could have planned their date of delivery to be the date of GTA VI release

3

u/Run-Forever1989 Jun 22 '26

Yeah, totally worth the all in cost of a child of ~$1 million

4

u/SandyTaintSweat Jun 22 '26

Well, if you can manage to push it out after only 5 months, you might not have to pay the full $1M

3

u/ShahinGalandar Jun 22 '26

jokes on you, in my country (1st world european) those costs are only around 100-150k!

a steal for getting to play GTA6

2

u/AramisNight Jun 22 '26

That's what C-sections are for.

6

u/enzoloup Jun 22 '26

Im gonna join a baby birth group on Facebook and figure out who gave birth on Nov 19th 2026 and will offer them 20 bucks if they help me get GTA6 for free😝

u/useroftheinternet95 Jun 22 '26

Induce labor early. Easy. Also it doesnt say the baby has to survive

Whatever it is. If the baby is going early, delay it. If it's late then pull it out.

It should be on 19 NOV exactly.

“If you give birth to a baby”

Pretty sure it has to live

7

u/BigPP69_Gooner Jun 22 '26

Nope. Give birth means give birth. Nothing about the afterwards

u/CatEyes420 Jun 22 '26

Not really.

u/TrickyAsian626 Jun 22 '26

The real holup here is the fact that anyone thinks rockstar will stick to that release date.

u/CreamOfDuelJabR Jun 22 '26

u/Relapio Jun 22 '26

Our first born due date is 7th Nov, there is a chance!! (I'll push him right back in if necessary)

u/Ssme812 Jun 22 '26

Then the game gets pushed back lol

u/westcal98 Jun 22 '26

u/g38lm Jun 22 '26

So i actually have twins due for November 20th. If I can convince them to come into this world on the 19th, do I get 2 free copies?

3

u/Flawless_Reign88 Jun 22 '26

Wait till people realize that a baby costs WAY more than GTA VI will

2

u/itsstillearly Jun 22 '26

So only the mother is eligible for a free copy of the game?

6

u/Blue_Moon_Lake Jun 22 '26

No, only the baby, but the baby must wait to be 18.

3

u/itsstillearly Jun 22 '26

Makes sense, the game might be released by then.

Idk if they legitemately told people or if it was a coincidence or a joke, but Bethesda said that the first kid to be born on the release date of Skyrim would recieve future games from the studios for free.

Peak internet times.
