La fuente del juego en red GTA (Grand Theft Auto).
Masturmind  Nov 22, 2008
YES! IT IS!
Story behind it:
the author (Ray Larabie) was a worker at RockstarGames, the company behind Grand Theft Auto. He based his font on the letters used for the show 'The Price Is Right'. Later he used it for the Grand Theft Auto III logo. Since then it has been used for all the GTA logo's, from GTA III to GTA Chinatownwars...

For those of you looking for an improved version with more/better accents etc: Ray Larabie has allowed me to rework his fonts and offer them with a (very generous) commercial license.
So if you need a professional quality Unicode OpenType or TrueType version of this font with a multilingual and expanded character set - you will find it here:

I think this is the font used on HGTV's "Curb Appeal" tv show!!

It obviously came from "The Price Is Right" tv game show on CBS starring "Drew Carrey" (Formally Bob Barker). Come on down your the next contestant on the price is right!

It was popularized by the Price is Right but was available in the 1970s from the Dan X Solo photo-typesetting service under the name Pinto Flare. Canada Type also did aversion called Jazz Gothic.

When I install this font and use it, some of the letters has long flicks, For example, when I type a "L" the lower part of the "L" kind of underlines the next letter. How can I get rid of these flick things?
typodermic  author of Pricedown   Oct 09, 2013
If your application has an option to turn off ligatures or "standard ligatures" that will stop the "flares". If you're using an Abode app, it's in the OpenType menu on the text formatting palette.

typodermic  author of Pricedown   Nov 06, 2015
Yes, it's free for commercial use. Good luck with your projects.

I love this font since GTA III, thanks
Kenyataq  Nov 08, 2018
I cannot get this font to work properly. I am wanting the “r” to underline the next letter, and it’s not doing so. Can someone help? This is being used with the silhouette software. Thanks!
typodermic  author of Pricedown   Nov 09, 2018
I don't think Silhouette apps support the "standard ligatures" feature. But you can manually select the glyphs you want in an external app and copy/paste them in. For example, in Windows, the Character Map tool. There's a tutorial that shows how it works on the Mac. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixayV2yh1mU
Raffman18  Feb 14, 2019
I am using this font in Adobe Photoshop, I've made text on its own layer. Every time I've typed it up, it is showing me a slight slant. The left side being 1px or 2px higher than the right side. the "W" is a different size. I haven't done any changes to it. Only typed it up and that's it! I don't know how to fix this. Please help!

the most iconic font ever
jjwalker91  Aug 26, 2019
This is amazing! Can I use this commercially? Just for a Youtube channel.
typodermic  author of Pricedown   Aug 30, 2019
It's no problem. There's details included with the font.

Can i get it on Android (mi)
typodermic  author of Pricedown   Dec 09, 2019
The explanation for installing fonts in Android is difficult, at least as of late 2019. Do some research and see what you can find. If you have a rooted phone, it's easy, otherwise, not so easy.
Skribble  Mar 07, 2020
I like the font so I downloaded it but I can't figure out why it won't let me install on my computer. Any advise how I may be able to use it?
typodermic  author of Pricedown   Mar 12, 2020
Assuming Windows 10: remove the file from the zip, right click and "install". FAQ here: https://www.dafont.com/faq.php
iamjaydee  Jun 18, 2020
I did have an issue with the ligatures in general, it's like the one for the 'r' character only goes under certain other characters. For instance the word 'Lorem" will have the r go below the 'e'. Hiwever in a words like 'curve' it will not...It would be just a regular 'r'. Im on a mac using illustrator and photoshop and I see the character preview ok in Font Book.
typodermic  author of Pricedown   Jun 22, 2020
Yeah, it uses ligatures because the letters the swashes need to tuck under are different lengths. Sometimes the best way to deal with a tricky combo is to select the word, turn off the ligatures feature and pick glyphs manually with a glyphs/characters palette.
@eurydyce  Oct 04, 2020
Thanks for allowing usbto use it for free even for commercial use. You are great and you help us so much. God bless you and more power

This is Grand Theft Auto Font
elitehax33  Nov 26, 2020
i actually found a website that had the other styles of this font. so what i want to say is that will it be illegal if i download them?
typodermic  author of Pricedown   Nov 28, 2020
Yes, the only free style is Pricedown: Black. You can purchase the rest here: https://typodermicfonts.com/pricedown/
Somethingffs  May 05, 2021
Woah, is this the GTA font?
typodermic  author of Pricedown   May 07, 2021
Yes. Here's a video explaining its origins. https://t.co/nTGm92XDg5?amp=1

This font is awesome. Can I use it for commercial use on Tik Tok?
typodermic  author of Pricedown   Feb 24, 2022
Thanks! Sure, no problem.

Hello!
Jaydenlikesfonts  Jun 01, 2023
Gives me GTA vibes! My friend told me that the uppercase T can be changed into this "T" rather than showing it as "t". Thank you!
typodermic  author of Pricedown   Jun 02, 2023
Your friend was speaking the truth! The trick is to use the Greek Tau symbol. You should be able to copy/paste this: Τ <- looks like a T but it's a Tau.
