Hmmm nice bike Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 It's possible that it could just be a simple reference that was removed. As for the Staunton Cafe-looking building, maybe it's just a canopy on another building. Also, Lazlo merntions Zaibatsu on Chatterbox, but they're a pharmacutical company in 2001. And, please use the edit button next time (Sorry if I sound like an asshole) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xNamexTakenx Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 Wasn't Zaibatsu an organization consisting of the Yakuza? I never played GTA 2, but I heard that Zaibatsu was an organization of gangs who teamed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintdave Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 Taken from wikipedia - Zaibatsu Corporation (symbol: yellow 'Z') - They appear in all of the areas and are a seemingly legitimate corporation who manufacture everything from cars and weapons to medication, but beneath the surface they are involved heavily in narcotics, contract-killing and shadowy politics. Their car, called a Z-Type, is the second fastest gang car available. The Zaibatsu is apparently led by at least three leaders, or at least have three executives through whom they organize their criminal activities: Trey Welsh in the Commercial District, Red Valdez in the Residential District, and Uno Carb in the Industrial District. The player is called "Gecko" by all three executives. Their gang color is black. In all districts, their territories can be distinguished by large red 'Z' banners hanging from buildings bearing their gang symbol. Their name comes from zaibatsu, the Japanese word for conglomerate. They are a separate gang from the Yakuza. It's quite possible that Rockstar originally intended to put them in GTA 3 as I'm sure is the case with many other things. Sadly we will never know unless the Houser's themselves decide to release details on such plans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
