ERSE is a video game magazine in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.
Description[]
An ERSE magazine is prominently displayed on the coffee table in Tommy Vercetti's suite in the Ocean View Hotel, accompanied by a vase of flowers, a New Discoverer magazine, a Crime magazine, a Guide magazine featuring Lance Vance, and a hockey mask, provided that The Job has been completed. The caption in the magazine issue located in Tommy's suite states, "1986 sees best ever graphics," alongside what seems to be a screenshot from an early two-dimensional adventure game.
Influence[]
ERSE is a parody of Edge; they are both video game magazines and have identical wordmarks - the middle stroke on the E on both of their logos extend through the stem.
The cover image displays a screenshot depicting the Palma region from the 1987 game Phantasy Star.

Trivia[]
- The name is similar to 'arse', an example of Rockstar's crude humour.
