Tom Petty's song "Love Is A Long Road" was featured in the trailer for Grand Theft Auto VI. The song, originally from Petty's 1989 album Full Moon Fever, fits the game's themes of crime, ambition, and the long journey ahead. Rockstar Games has a history of using Petty's music, as they previously included "Runnin' Down A Dream" in GTA: San Andreas.

Miami Vice inspired Sam Houser to make GTA Vice City:

“The thing that was more of a direct influence was Miami Vice, because it’s a little bit later. Scarface is earlier, like ’83, and it kind of looks it, but Miami Vice was ’84 to ’89, about five seasons, 110 or so episodes, and I’ve seen them all many times. Before you could get them on DVD I bought them off eBay – the crappiest quality VHS copies you’ve ever seen, and I have them all. But it was an incredibly slick show, and when we were first talking about it, everyone was kind of laughing, like: ‘What are you on about?’ And I was like, ‘No, no, no – it’s so slick’. Just in terms of music alone, when you look at the tracks that Miami Vice used, it’s an amazing list, and Michael Mann would create these miniature pop videos in every show which would be montages. So his use of music in the show was remarkable. A dream of mine and Dan’s is to have a montage in a game, actually. We’re on our way; we’ll get it one day – a montage of your experiences set to music. Come on, that’s going to be amazing, right? With hard drives in consoles, you know it’ll happen.”

“Then the other thing I loved – and we all loved, actually, although initially there was a lot of arm twisting that had to go on in order to make people watch it – was that each show was kind of like a mission. It may have had a few cool little action sequences in it which were novel, but the overarching story was like a mission, so there was so much cool stuff to take in, whether it was the vehicles they used – incredible cars, incredible helicopters, incredible boats – or whatever. While we were finishing GTAIII I would even go home at lunchtimes and watch episodes, and I did that for about a year – it was all I watched.”
