That brings back a lot of memories... Did you have any trouble getting in? - No, the guy with the rubber glove was surprisingly gentle. If I'm not back in five minutes... just wait longer.

Rhoda Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 You're all cocks. Answer the guy's question and clear out, not pay references to a movie that dies a little bit more everytime you quote it. OP: It could be a reference, but it's most likely coincidence that both characters sound similar as their roles nowhere near match. It may have been on their minds, but I doubt it went further than that.

nickstemoeilijk Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 What do you think? Is Darko supposed to be an homage to Darkel? That's what I thought I don't really see the connection. Darko is a very common name in the Balkans. Darko =/= Darkel, nor is it a tribute I believe.

Other people here just like to spam. I just answered your question. 1) Darko is a very common name in the Balkans. 2) There are no similarities between the two characters. Darkel was a deleted character from GTA III who was supposed to give you rampage-like missions. He was a hobo and could be found in the strange Portland Tunnel (Or another one, can't recall). WARNING SPOILER: (please somebody reply and tell me how to use spoiler tags on this forum, haven't used them before) Darko is a former Serbian army officer who ended up ratting Niko's company out over drug-money. ---- So no, it is neither a reference, nor is it the same character.

soleil Posted June 3, 2008 Author Share Posted June 3, 2008 nickstemoeilijk: I don't know how to use spoiler tags, sorry. But don't you think Rockstar makes tons of homages that don't go far beyond the name? The similarities I was thinking of were just the name and the fact that he was the "special someone" Niko was looking for. And these forums spent so much time wishing Darkel was in the game (GTA III). He became our special someone. That's why I said he could be an homage, not la re-creation or a re-hash.

Then still I do not think it's a reference. Like I said, Darko is not an unusual name in the Balkans. AGAIN SPOILER AHEAD (well actually easter egg ) And here's another fact: even the former GTA protagonists only got a minor reference somewhere on a wall inside a building. So I would find it hard to believe that they gave a character that didn't even appear in the game a bigger reference.
