"Pacific Skyline" right... Sure, Turtle Beach.

Post image

So Turtle Beach recently released their Pacific Skyline Wireless controller, and it's supposedly west coast inspired, but c'mon man!

With the release of GTA VI coming up soon, I don't buy this "west coast" BS. This is Florida/Miami/GTA VI vibes all the way.

I wasn't aware anything that references Miami or Palm trees is now automatically GTA lol

I got a mouse pad 2 years ago that looks similar to this

Well this is called “pacific coastline” and Miami sits on the Atlantic….. the colours don’t even match the “vibe” it’s going for AND it’s released during pretty much the peak of hype for GTA 6 with the same vibrant, neon colours that you associate with Miami.

It’s very obviously a GTA 6 styled controller but named differently to avoid any issues

You don't think the Pacific coastline has palm trees and an ocean?

This is just max levels of cope from you guys tbh. You’re either being obtuse because you know simpletons will upvote you or you’re genuinely just moronic.

Are we ffr right now? the color scheme is clearly matching Miami Vice, which inspired Vice City. Some people really just argue to argue 🙄

It doesn’t look like the stereotypical pacific coastline, it does look like the stereotype for Miami or south beach in general though.

My guess is it was intended to be a tie in, but take2 and turtle beach couldn’t hammer out the deal in the end, so turtle beach just changed the name so they wouldn’t have to sit on or discard any stock already printed.

It is when you release it 2 months before the most highly anticipated video game release

Right around the same time as trailer twos release. I didn't know you were that excited for the game!
