Francis McCreary? Is this him?

[Civkiller]

i'm going to love torturing that malnurished idiot...

[Slamman]

The balding guy doesn't fit my idea of McCreary...he seems like someone associated with the police, but not a policeman... he appears rather timid!

You also notice Roman gagged and tied to a chair behind him, very un-police like, typically.... just things to consider, as w3e don't know who all is dirty on the enforcement side of things.

I think mcreary will really piss me off, I dont like the idea of Niko (a tough guy) being knocked about by mcreary, who in all honesty looks like a middle aged accountant.

well said

[Slamman]

Adam said he will try for confirmation on the character...but that already coming from another thread, so be forewarned on that account!

McCreary is a corrupt police officer (what would a GTA game be without one?) who has dirt on Niko's past. He knows about a felony Niko committed, which he threatens to reveal details of unless Niko obeys his orders. In the mission "Call and Collect," McCreary asks you to retrieve a memory stick with sensitive data which was stolen from him. He wears a black suit and tie, has a short moustache, and has slicked blonde hair with a strong side parting.

 

NOTICE that it says Police Officer not a Detective as on the artwork

Well Trailer 3 came out and it has led me to believe that this is Francis McCreary

Good shout.

 

Off-topic: "Roman" is the spitting image of Dante from Clerks.

A character from my future-favorite game resembles a character from my favorite movie of all time. Ironic.

They do look identical but can't imagine him having a decent enough Eastern European accent to play the part.

If McCeary is the man in the 3rd trailer, then maybe the artwork (with the Detective) shows that there will

be Detectives on the street?

Well, I bet we get to kill him in a particularly gruesome way...

[Carbine23]

Regardless if his name fits him or not, the description matches perfectly.

Nice job spotting McReary, I wouldn't have guessed it myself.

Exactly

Thanks for understanding why i think he's McCreary

[Slamman]

The still NCIS shows is the guy my money's on, even though the art is different then the game graphics, I think McCreary will be a hard ass. I notice the description sounds more like the pissed off guy near the end of the trailer, hope we hear back from an insider to the demo on that!

There's a scene where a computer monitor is thrown off a shelf, I speculate it to be Roman's Taxi office and McCreary maybe involved in a shakedown. I'm not sure but if Roman's shady dealings have numerous ties, that could be why McCreary found dirt on his cousin. We'll know when playing I suspect

I do NOT think that this is McReary. In the trailer he seems like a whiny little B***h. He's the who says "Stop killing people you manic!" I don't think a crooked cop would be that much of girl and I don't think he would care that much about the citicenz.

where we met with Francis McGreary [correct spelling this time!] in out last demo. (McGreary, by the way, has not been seen in any screenshots or trailers yet).

Correct spelling and he hasn't been in any shots or trailers.
