How Deep Silver Trolled Twitter On GTA 5’s Launch Day

A new title is out today and making some serious waves in the wild. Deep Silver has put out a new DLC for Saints Row IV dubbed GAT V, and their devious marketing gurus paid to have the hashtag #GATV promoted on Twitter. This really messed with the heads of a lot of poor souls, what with Grand Theft Auto V also coming out today.

Why is #GATV trending? Isn't it supposed to be #GTAV? Lmao #Fail 🙊

So what exactly is GAT V? It allows players to dress up like Johnny Gat or his lost lover Aisha in Saints Row IV, and it also grants the use of a gun that fires combat knives. The pack is free today on Steam, and $3 on PS3 and Xbox Live.
