CLoWnnSkuLL Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 I noticed today that on the stadium in GTA III reads "Liberty Memorial Coliseum 1928". So why is it only just being built in LCS which is set in 1998? Had Liberty City recently re-located? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creative madman Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 possibly its just being renovated? and also there are several continuity errors throughout the series good catch but Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just wondering because I just finished playing both those games, and I'd like to know . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintdave Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 The most commonly known one is the use of Sex Club 7 during the Introduction video of GTA San Andreas. During the short movie you see CJ (at the time located in Liberty City) drive by/through the red light district and you see clear signs of Sex Club 7. This was set in 1992. The continuity problem is very evident. The club was Paulie's Revue bar in the start of 1998 (the setting of LCS) during the course of the game it changes to Sex Club 7 but only then. It remains the same in GTA 3 (set 3 years later). So in the Introduction video it should have appeared as Paulies revue bar. The only excuse Rockstar could use would be that the storyline and building changes of LCS weren’t expected to have any impact of the part of this film.

xNamexTakenx Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Oh, okay. Thanks. Is that it, or is there more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeliPilot Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Take a look at the road signs in Portland that point to the Callahan bridge. It looks like white spray paint was used to remove Callahan bridge from them. Now, why did the signs point to the bridge BEFORE it was built. They shouldn't have been covered with white paint, they shouldn't be there at all. There are quite a few other map errors between 3 and LCS also.

xNamexTakenx Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Oh, yeah. I always wondered why the sign was crossed out. Thanks for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLoWnnSkuLL Posted September 25, 2007 Author Share Posted September 25, 2007 GTA LCS was set in 1998GTA III was set in 2001 I know that. The error was that in 1998 it was being built and in 2001 it held a sign saying "Liberty Memorial Coliseum 1928". If it was being built in 1998 then it would have said "Liberty Memorial Coliseum 1998" in 2001. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creative madman Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 well, im sure theres a topic out there... but you can kill Miguel in 1998, which would totally remove him from GTAIII set in 2001 i cant think of the others...but they're there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in the story, the way it's supposed to end, he survives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know. Contuinity errors exist throughout the GTA series. Humans err, those who work in Rocktsar Games are humans, not some AI like Salvatore or Big Smoke, ok?

So, obviously, he still survives for GTA 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintdave Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 But if you kill him in LCS I believe it's classed as a "Mission Failed". It's not I'm afraid mate. Infact once the cut scene ends the front of the enemy attack is led by Miguel so you automatically lock onto him (if using a lock on weapon). Even if you didn’t all of the enemy must die for you to continue/complete the mission. Actually, in LCS, Miguel is just "badly hurt" when shot by Toni . So, obviously, he still survives for GTA 3. This could well be, but as I mention you kill all the people you meet during the mission, Miguel included. The way I interpret it is as follows. Miguel was meant to be in the cut scene, however due to whatever reasons (may well be laziness) his character model was left in open play which as stated is shot at and killed along with the other enemy members. I don’t think the model was intended to remain in open play, if done correctly Miguel would have left the scene at the end of the cinematic and then the shoot out would have begun.

CLoWnnSkuLL Posted September 26, 2007 Author Share Posted September 26, 2007 I found another small one. In SA (1992)Catalina says Claude and herself are off to Liberty City. In GTA III (2001) after you get the first mission from El Burro ("Turismo"), in the cutscene El Burro tells Claude "You are new to Liberty, but you're already gaining a reputation on the streets". Hasn't Claude been in 'Liberty' for nine years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't Claude in prison during that time for the robbery? If I'm not mistaken he was in for 9 years after taking the fall for Catalina, she shot him in the face/head/neck. When he and 8-ball escape he is all healed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintdave Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 No. The robbery takes place at the very start of the game (same year) if you look at the newspaper it tells about the impending sentence and the cut scene is about him being moved to the prison to serve his time.

He's one of the main antagonists in that game. Him and Catalina are working togther as the head of the Columbian Cartel, so that makes them Claude's enemy!

He was a coward! It's good that he died . But, at least he's not as bad as Catalina ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unknownmercenary Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 Who the hell is Miquel? He's Catalina's partner in the Cartel. Also, I'm pretty sure that's a definite continuity error, but Rockstar seems to retcon a lot of stuff with newer games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLoWnnSkuLL Posted September 29, 2007 Author Share Posted September 29, 2007 I found something a little weird. In GTA III Phil says after Arms Shortage: "If I had've teamed up with you in Nicaragua, maybe I'd still have my arm." Well we know that he lost his arm in the explosion in Vice City, so is this yet another continuity error? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA Phreak Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 No, - just means that Phil isn't quite truthful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintdave Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 It means neither. It's just that Phil was always so off his face on boomshine he forgot how he truly lost his arm, being that he has always been into weaponry and the army due to their connection he assumed it was whilst in service.

xNamexTakenx Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 Another thing about Phil Cassidy is in LCS, he owns a shop called Phil Cassidy's Fully Cocked Gun Shop in Bedford Point, Staunton Island. There, he just looks like a biker-kinda guy (With braids, tattoos, etc.) and he has 2 arms! Then, in GTA 3, he's completely different - he has a bigger part, and he owns a warehouse in Aspatria or something, and he looks different and he has only one arm. That's kinda weird, isn't it? No biggy, though. But, whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
