10 Times Rockstar Almost Made You Stop Playing GTA

9. Pulling Favors (GTA V)

Speaking of godawful, GTA V seemed to try and find the central venn diagram loop between San Andreas' love for minigames and GTA IV's maturity... by including missions dedicated to some of the most mundane things in gaming history.

We had dockwork, running five miles in the desert to trigger a phonecall - and this:

Literally just towing cars for half an hour. Nothing more, nothing less.

The mission is introduced as one of the first "Strangers & Freaks" cutaways you can find, but being the walking hypodermic syringe that is Tonya intones the job is supposed to be done by her crack-smoking boyfriend, the reality is... you're doing some real lowlife's job for him.

Drive up, hook the car, drive back, drop it off. Repeat until you fall asleep.
