Is CJ Shaun Butler?

[Sutherland]

Apologies in advance for wasting your time

 

Today I was playing Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX and decided to have a cruise around as rider Shaun Butler. As soon as I started riding I noticed something suspicious.

 

See for yourself....

Thanks for pointing that out

[*MURDOC*]

HAHAHA, thats a first.

Ive heard a lot of "CJ looks just like _______"

But never once was it Shaun Butler.

Ive seen Shaun Butler before, in person, and im not going to say they dont look alike, but im also not going to say they do.

 

 

 

 

.....Ok i guess i changed my mind, they do kinda look alike, but only kinda!

 

Edit-In that pic you posted they look more alike, probably since they are videogame versions, and just happen to be wearing almost the same outfit.

Any person with a wifebeater shirt, jeans and BMX will look like that CJ. All you see is his friggin back.

I see what you mean , sorry about the CJ picture, its the best one I could find at the moment cause Ive not got San Andreas installed on this PC .

 

You get the idea though, the way they are dressed is very similar.

Uhh, yeah. The clothes you start out with, which most people switch. CJ is not like Claude, his clothes are not part of his identity.

jeeees..... people really need to loosen up a bit round here.

 

CJ's first set of clothes define him, when you think of CJ you dont think of him dressed up in the most expensive clothes from Didier Saches, you think of the white vest and blue jeans.

 

The attire you first see someone in is what you associate them with. Whenver we see someone walking down the street we presume whatever they are wearing is thier normal attire, For instance if I was to wear a backwards baseball cap around my friends theyd laugh at me and call me names (like they do already but moreso ) because I dont uaully wear one, but for someone who'd never seen me before seeing me in a backwards basebal cap would seem perfectly normal and they wouldnt notice the abnormality.

 

I understand that CJ doesnt always wear the same outfit throughout the game or if he was real wouldnt've been born wearing vest n jeans but when we first watched that intro where he's picking up the suitcase what we saw then and there is CJ.

 

The point of this topic was to point out that CJ's appearance is unusually similar to that of Shaun Butlers from Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX. Did they play Dave Mirra and decide to copy it? Maybee they played it, totally forgot but subconsiously remembered and replicated it? Or was it just plain coincidence? Why is my cat chewing my arm? We'll never know........

 

Now can people please stop being picky and just roll with the punches?

 

Cheers,

Well, that was a deep and touching segment. Shall we move on?

[Sutherland]

Yes, I believe we shall. I've made my point

[GTA3Freak-2001]

LMAO at the detail of the BMX in Dave Mirra, nice spokes

 

Seriously though the face is totally different so its really just a case of clothes being similar and in video games that's the main thing that defines someone well in GTA and games like Dave Mirra it is.
