Obee Vermeij is a developer who worked on Rockstar Games from 1995 until 2009, like a week ago, he created a blog named https://insiderockstarnorth.blogspot.com/, which detailed a lot of very interesting information about the development of the original GTA trilogy, GTA 4, their cancelled Cold War spy-action game Agent, and even stuff like a never-before-publicly-revealed Zombie Survival game set in Scotland that was being developed around the same time as Vice City (2002), and many more.

Like, how can I describe it? this blog is every GTA fan dream, it even revealed 20-year-old unexplained mysteries in the GTA trilogy, like explaining the easter egg of why the moon in the original GTA games enlarges when you shoot it with a sniper rifle.

Very awesome stuff for GTA and video game fans in general!, a ton of GTA-centric YouTube channels have made videos about this blog in various languages, but unfortunately, since this topic is related to a multi-billion dollar media empire like Rockstar Games, the company that constantly shuts down fan mods, Obee’s last post was about how he received an e-mail from Rockstar North telling him to stop, and so it did, the blogspot was deleted.

However… The blog and apparently all of its contents were archived on the Wayback Machine, but again, since this is Rockstar Games that we are talking about, I recommend everyone in the Lost Media and GTA/Rockstar Games community to archive all of its content on the WayBack Machine in case Rockstar goes against the Wayback Machine too!
