The Notorious MOB Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 In a picture in the new XBOX World 360 it appears that Maisonette 9 is in a building with serveral floors and a glass front and other large buildings accross the street. Two cookies to the first person who finds it. do you mean the pic on the botton right corner of page 67? Yeah that's it. Doesn't it look like the back wall (opposite where Luis is standing) is a window that looks out onto the street. Or is it just me?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamcs Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 It looks like a solid wall to me, with palm trees painted onto it. All the walls are like that it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the wall on the right of the picture... The back wall... Isn't that the side of a building in the left side of it? Or is it just a lamp or something?

Tsar_Smirnoff Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 It's so dark, but it looks like an exit sign on the left side..it's most likely all enclosed. The entrance is probably behind Luis on the 1st floor in that picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamcs Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Yeah, that's the wall I was talking about. To me all the walls look the same, but it's difficult to tell because the picture is so dark. The entrance/exit is over on the left (you can see a green light just above it, which I'm guessing is an exit sign). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsar_Smirnoff Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 It could very well be a window, I just can't tell. What do you think that thing is on the left wall with the blue and white stripes? Is that just part of the entrance/wall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The entrance/exit is over on the left (you can see a green light just above it, which I'm guessing is an exit sign). Yeah it is really hard to tell. Even in the actual magazine the image is quite dark. I guess there's no [point in looking for a building with a glass front if we cant tell for certain if the glass front is a feature of Maisonette 9. Damn you Xbox World and your dark images!! It could very well be a window, I just can't tell. What do you think that thing is on the left wall with the blue and white stripes? Is that just part of the entrance/wall? That's the thing I thought was a building it looks less and less like one everytime I look at it though.

Nightwing 0613 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 If anyone can pm with the scans, I would greatly appreciate it. And since we now know the the dude in underpants is Yusef Amir. I wonder who the shiek looking guy is. I thought that was him & the other guy in underpants was just a henchman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks man I tried that and it doesn't make enough of a difference... I actually played with the colour levels in photoshop as well as the contrast and brightness, but the photo is too under detailed and lacks enough colour levels to reveal anything... If it is actually a glass window and a corner building outside, I'd have to say it's in the location many have guessed at earlier... MAP... but who knows.

Tsar_Smirnoff Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 If Bahama Mama's is more of a dance club, and Maisonette 9 is more chilled out...I wonder what the Hercules will be like? Probably a bunch of Greek architecture and statues inside? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SovietWarrior42 Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Huh, seems Bahama Mama's took the dance part from the Malibu, while Maisonette 9 took the beach theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic_Al Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I really want to find these places before TBOGT comes out. If Star Wars fans thought it was fun to wait next to a movie theater for a month before Episode I came out, I should be able to make a video game character hang around an incomplete prototype building. I remember some Star Wars fans found out they were waiting by the wrong theater. Niko and Johnny don't want to be like those nerds, so we need the right locations.

Tsar_Smirnoff Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I'm stumped as to where the two other clubs are exactly..but I do think they reside on the west side of Algonquin somewhere, that seems to be the big party/club section of town..so I'm going to concentrate my searching efforts there. Purgatory seems like a good place to look, there are a lot of gay pedestrians in that section of town. Maybe the Hercules resides there. Anybody seen that building in purgatory that has that multi-colored neon glass tower running up the front of it? I wonder what it is. It's just north of Bahama Mama's a few blocks.

ArcaneKnight Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Just look for that slanted road like in the scan with the Phantom in south Algonquin.. It's got to be around there somewhere. Being that the only slanted roads on the island are on the westside, they're somewhere around there. Southwest Algonquin somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOSEPH X Posted September 8, 2009 Author Share Posted September 8, 2009 This thread is all about GUESSING where they are, without KNOWING where they are. The quiz ends when either the game is released or the exterior is shown on a screenshot or trailer. There is no way of knowing from IV or TLAD where these places, so you can only guess or make an educated guess. MAN, I can`t believe this has been going since Jan.

Luis F. Lopez Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I think this is the location for Maisonette 9: http://snapmap.wikigta.org/index.php?map=I...420,415|421,416 I noticed a few things...the large white arrow pointing right, it's almost as if it means something. The UTBNB could be the fight club I don't know. Then there's a parking lot right across the street so it seems fitting. For final observation of the area I saw two DJs with headphones walking down the street of the location. One of them was even leaning on the UTBNB building.

adamcs Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 So, the location of Hercules is now known: I don't think anyone predicted that, did they? The LCPD database lied. It was supposed to be in "Lower Algonquin". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic_Al Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 That's a pretty extreme makeover of the storefront, even more than the Lost clubhouse. Continuity schmantinuity. Also very surprised it's so close to Bahama Mamas. Running back and forth across the street feels less than epic for GTA but I trust there's a good reason.

Magic_Al Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Tony doesn't own Bahama Mamas according to the preview information, unless I'm misreading. With there also being a bar/darts place on the same block as Bahama Mamas, this neighborhood is becoming pretty dense with interiors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
