'Boardwalk Empire' intro recreated in GTA V

YouTube user 8-BIT BASTARD has recreated the intro sequence of HBO series Boardwalk Empire using Grand Theft Auto V.

It's a very faithful recreation, as you can see from the side-by-side comparison video.

Shot-for-shot, it's close. We may never get quite get the wonder and detail of Steve Buscemi's face in a current-gen engine, but hey, we can all hope.

You may remember 8-BIT BASTARD from their previous work — they recreated the Sopranos intro in GTA V not too far back.
