man, this bigfoot myth got to me. once i unlock the area i'll go looking for him myself. i know i most likely won't find anything but according to some other ppl searching in the woods can be scary, so i'll do it just for the sake of scaring the sh*t out of myself so that i can laugh at myself later on.

Yes Vinyl Countdown has been around since Vice City at least.

The October plate could be legit, but I'm thinking the earlier BJOB### plate was just a random coincidence.

 

No bigfoot or warez discussion in this topic please.

I dont know if this has been posted before but in the manual it says Sweet's real name is Sean Johnson a possible Reference to the Sean John clothing label? Also it says Ryder's real name is Lance. A sign of his double-crossing nature? I think so.

I don't think the Sean John thing is very convincing... but yeah we talked about "Lance" other times and agree it's probably a trend.

thedude777, what's Ryder's license plate? "Two-timing motherf*cker?"

 

Can someone tell me the neighborhood or distinct location of "Max Pane" window?

Seems to be on the bulletproof glass, at the gas station.

It's somewhere in Dillimore.

Damn crappy double post. Argh. >_<

That's what I thought. I used to live in Surf City, USA!!! I've seen those things! It's used to level the sand.....Isn't it?

Yeah usually, but this one was designed for making art patterns in the sand... another hint is it's at Santa Monica Beach = Santa Maria Beach in the game...

[Invader Spleen]

Thanks guys. Thats exactly what I was talking about. Has anybody tried hitching it to anything yet?

[thedude777]

Those things are cool!

[DApeoplezCHAMP]

I belive there is a huge secret yet to be found. In order to find out what the "Big Secret" R* was talking about, we must come togther and search the whole state of San Andreas.

 

 

To start out, there is a list of unexplaned things that we have all experienced before.I belive that some of these things are somehow conneted in a way. Some of these things are:

 

Trenchcoat wearing guy in Fort Carson

Aztec-like symbol on side of rock wall in the Badlands

Strange Map in Lil Probe Inn

Lights in night sky

The Green Goo

Mysterious "Gohst" Cars

Epsilon Program

Greenglass College

Area 69

The Big Ear

Shady Industries

WheelChair in Fishers Lagoon

Biohazzard well in Blueberry

The Panopticon

Bodybags in middle of the Desert

House with the Beagle sometimes in driveway at Fort Carson

The two guys that stand around the Beagle at Fort Carson

 

 

The Epsilon Program refers to the real-life Episilon Cult which is a rumor of a group of senators,Polititions,militaristic leaders,who are involved in the bulilding and flying of UFO's and could be secretly controlling the United states of America

[Mxyzptlk]

I'll attempt to answer Champ here with our concenses from the topic and my personal opinion:

 

Trenchcoat wearing guy in Fort Carson = Johnny Cash spoof

Aztec-like symbol on side of rock wall in the Badlands = Nazca lines reference, or coincidental texture alignment

Strange Map in Lil Probe Inn = means nothing, just paranoia reflected from real life UFO hunters

Lights in night sky = high-altitude jetliners

The Green Goo = jetpack fuel? Alien blood?

Mysterious "Gohst" Cars = junkers as in real life, practical application: when CJ gets stranded

Epsilon Program = you said Epsilon Cult, but I think any crackpot cult could be represented here

Greenglass College = nothing why mention this?

Area 69 = Area 51 at Groom Lake Nevada USA

The Big Ear = The Big Ear radio telescope (Ohio State Uni)

Shady Industries = take on corrupt businesses

WheelChair in Fishers Lagoon = unknown, whats with the clock times on the front wheels?

Biohazzard well in Blueberry = my opinion: just a well; Shaft121: toxic waste from Sprunk (like Coca Cola)

The Panopticon = nothing

Bodybags in middle of the Desert = just bodybags, where the Mafia or anyone can drop snitches and deadbeats

House with the Beagle sometimes in driveway at Fort Carson = programming mistake

The two guys that stand around the Beagle at Fort Carson = no such thing, peds are random

Clock times? I never saw any time on the wheel chair the times I looked. Can you get a shot of that?

 

Perhaps it relays to the beat the cock race from that beach?

 

And as for this house/peds/car, whats amazing about a parked car? There are parked cars in front of lots of houses in the whole city. And peds standing there means nothing. There are peds standing and walking everywhere..

If you look at the front wheels, it looks as those you can see "3:30" and "12:30PM" in the texture. Of course I stood there at all hours and explored possibilities thoroughly so no need to ask or repeat the obvious tests. (Cash prize for a crisp clean PC version photo).

 

And the Fort Carson parked vehicle is unusual since it's a rather large Airplane, not a car. I agree the peds mean nothing.

Oh I see. I'm sorry-couldnt remember what a beagle was. But there are planes parked by jetties in other places anyhow.

 

I think the times might relate to the beat the cock race from there? I never knew there was one from that beach (I dont remember it mentioned in the poster at Ganton Gym). But there is a race from there, I went to look for myself(hence late reply) and there was a marker ready.

 

And i can see the time on the wheels now (had never looked before). Cheers for that.

I don't think so as the race is available anytime Saturday and Sunday isn't it?

[indian_deathlock]

I think you re right. I just checked my game time and it was a saturday.

 

BTW, I took photos of the letters 'CI' that I was speaking of a while back.

In the day:

Hmm the CI is strange... any guesses?

"#4 - Buried Body Bags:

There is a pile of dead bodies in disposable bags located in El Castillo Del Diablo, South West of the airstrip in the desert. Parked next to the mass grave is a Bobcat, so whoever dumped the bodies, also left their car there. This could be a way to dispose the bodies of intruders into nearby Area 69 although it could refer to a real-life murderer."

 

I didn't really have time to check the whole post to see if this has been mentioned...but if anyone's seen the intro dvd that came with the 2 disc soundtrack, you'd notice there were two guys burying someone in the desert right around this area. They had to kill the guy that was running the Caligula Casino so that Salvatore Leone could bring his guy...Ken Rosenberg...in. Yup...i believe that solves that mystery.

Heh I remember that from Kippers revenge video months ago, when Shaft was still writing the list... I'll add those details. Thanks dude!

 

PS: Make another stunt vid for us!

[Invader Spleen]

I was looking around Las Venturas along the north east edge where the rocky part meets the grass on the map and all along there are lanterns about as big as CJ. I think I counted 16 of them. Sorry no pics or map.

[indian_deathlock]

The bodybags in the desert could also be in reference to the film Casino. (stars Joe Pesci, De Niro etc). It also follows the plotline with casinos etc obviously. I think the whole thing is a allusion to the film.

[GodGell]

i think i've found a small easter egg.
