Grand Theft Auto V

[James]

Surprised you guys didn't mention it.

The V is extremely similar to those Indian Dollar bills, may be set in that Las Vegas area again so expect SA 2.

Also while we know nothing before the trailer hits at the end of this week, what are your top 3 favourite GTA protagonists?

#1 Victor Vance
#2 Tommy Vercetti
#3 CJ

[Kaiden]

Yeah nothing to mention yet.

CJ

..

[Tantalus]

CJ is a beast.

'I'M HAVIN' DAT!'

I do prefer Tommy Vercetti, though.

Fuck Niko. Fuck his whiny cries about his home country. Fuck his sneakers. Fuck his porno/smut film moustache.

[James]

CJ is awesome.

[ynnaD]

4 was my least favourite of the lot.

CJ was my fav, followed by Claude.

[Tantalus]

CJ is awesome.

Bitch.

[Kaiden]

Yeah...no. People like him?

[James]

He's the first "straight man gone back to his old life" protagonist, and so far has the most interaction with the world and story. Niko was short of that.

GTA V has me hype, knowing the dissapointment GTA IV caused I expect something excellent. I also heard the episodes were good which also has me hype

[~DJ~]

CJ! CJ DA BEST

[Mastakilla]

CJ was alright and I agree with James but his surroundings where SHIT

GTA VC for life

[James]

1 more day.

[Aidan]

CJ in Russia?

Russia in CJ?

[James]

Place your bets, what locale will it be in:

San Andreas
San Fransico (forgot name)
Las Vegas (forgot name)
Vice City
Liberty City (Unlikely?)
Anywhere City (forgot name)
London

If there's a city you suspect, say it.

I think it is going to be Las Vegas centered, but the whole 3 cities like in SA again.

GTA VC for life

This is how I feel, best city! Vice City Stories definitely had the best protagonist for me aswell, I love Vance.

[Tantalus]

Las Venturas/Ventures?

That seems too small of a map, though.

[ynnaD]

Imagine if it featured a couple of the major locations, Vice City, Liberty City and parts if not all of SA.

AWESOME

A man can dream.

[James]

They might expand it, Liberty City in GTA1, GTA III and GTA IV were all different.

That feel when all the GTA III era games were all places from GTA I

[Tantalus]

Imagine if it featured a couple of the major locations, Vice City, Liberty City and parts if not all of SA.

AWESOME

A man can dream.

As in like travel to all of them via aeroplane/train etc.?

A man would have to dream, but what a dream it would be...

my friend who is an art director and artist at ea (fifa, tor) has some info from friend in rockstar. will post when im off lunch

Supose you could do it via ferry and plane, get auto travel via airport or even fly there yourself via jet or helicopter, unlikley they could put that into the game.

But just imagine the awesomeness..

Main protagonist is Hispanic, called Adrian from the Varrios Los Aztecas we saw in San Andreas - where the game is also set

I'm going to say modern day San Andreas, then? Perhaps with the rise and fall of CJ or something?

[James]

also apparently based on a huge drug deal. hence vegas logo

dear god what have i discovered

[Tantalus]

Straight from the Rockstar Games trailer page:

WARNING: IF YOU HAD BEEN WAITING TO SEE THE TRAILER AND DON'T WANT TO SEE THE INFO LISTED ANTHER DO NOT READ IT ALL RIGHT'S RESERVED 2011.

* The protagonist is Hispanic and his name is Adrian.
* It takes place in San Andreas in 2012. The Mayan end of the world is parodied a lot because of this.
* You start out in Los Santos and are in your rival’s turf, Varrios Los Aztecas, after getting beaten up and robbed.
* The game revolves around money in a big deal. I’d reveal the big idea, but I don’t want to ruin it.
* Multiplayer is in again. There are a couple of new game modes, co-op story, and 32-player game modes for consoles and 64 player for PC. PC also includes dedicated servers.
* PC comes out on launch and is being ported by Leeds. From what they have shown us it is optimized much better than GTA 4.
* San Andreas includes all the same cities from GTA SA and this time they have all became a bit bigger as well as much more detailed.
* Gang turf wars are back. This time not only the general gang are in charge but different sets such as57th Ballas or the Eastside Azteca. They have their own graffiti. You can tag up stuff with custom sprays now too.

And now the Major SPOILER section.

[spoiler]* In the end your protag dies once again like in RDR. Afterwards you play as his brother who inherits the money.
* ”The money” I refer to comes from a massive drug trade that ships to San Andreas. Its fought over a lot throughout the story and it comes with lots of money. It has ties to your family so it becomes a bigger deal.
* The timeline continues off of GTA 4. It is referenced a lot. I’m not really sure whether Niko dies but he’s mentioned at least twice.
* Car modding is back so is lowriding of course.
* There are 9 radio stations. It features a range of music. Some of the rap is new, some is old. There’s a better selection than GTA 4 though IMO.
* Military has returned in the 6 star wanted level except they are referred to as National Guard.
* Cover system is upgraded and plays more smoothly.
* The moral decisions you saw in GTA IV have more effect on the story now. There are at otal of 4 unique endings. 2 bad, 2 good. Whether the protag dies in all of them you’ll just have to figure out since the endings are actually pretty cool.
* More girlfriends.
* Parachutes.
* Fun cheats are back! [/spoiler]

The user also claims that the upcoming debut trailer of GTA V is 1:04 long, and it is "relatively peaceful and shows off the city". * The protagonist is Hispanic and his name is Adrian.
* It takes place in San Andreas in 2012. The Mayan end of the world is parodied a lot because of this.
* You start out in Los Santos and are in your rival’s turf, Varrios Los Aztecas, after getting beaten up and robbed.
* The game revolves around money in a big deal. I’d reveal the big idea, but I don’t want to ruin it.
* Multiplayer is in again. There are a couple of new game modes, co-op story, and 32-player game modes for consoles and 64 player for PC. PC also includes dedicated servers.
* PC comes out on launch and is being ported by Leeds. From what they have shown us it is optimized much better than GTA 4.

I'm also going to call it and say that there will be a mission with middle-aged CJ.

Yahoo! Answers says your source is...





4chan?

[James]

no my friend from ea who is married to a french woman who lives in sussex

if it was posted on 4chan, blame word of mouth

[ynnaD]

Regarding the game radio stations, every GTA game to date my preferred station has always been the one where they have all the discussions and the chat shows.

Lazlow is a hero "GTA 3 Chatterbox"

He was in VC as well, and he was in SA i think too.

"EDIT"

Regards to the game, if its anything close to the first 3 and especially SA i will be very happy, the further away from 4 it is the better, 4 was horrible and i didn't enjoy it at all, it was nothing like its counterparts and it showed.
