gamesguru 134 Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 I think people are not looking at over options that could easily be put into scenario. So far people have only debated if Claude shot Maria or not. Well here's a couple of more options for you fine lot to gander at: 1: Maria took the gun and shot Claude. 2: Claude committed suicide because he couldn't take it any longer. 3: The gun is let off by mistake. 4: He shoots a rabbit. I think the second outcome would've been ironic actually. In the sense Claude has come all this way to seek revenge and now he has done it, he doesn't know what to do next. Leaving him in a mid-life crises sort of predicament; so he decides what's the worth, puts the shotgun in his mouth and blows his brain all over Maria.

gamesguru 134 Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 I mean it just a game, so I reckon if he did kill himself Rockstar just let you play on for the sake of it being a videogame. Although some sort of twin/clone is a good theory . I could go on with a whole page's worth with reasons how it would work, but I don't want to turn into a conspiracy dweller.

Raptomex 57 Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 he did kill her. its a joke. after all of clauds hard work saving maria, he finally has her all too himself and realises shes a pain in the ass. Agreed. Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think it would make sense if she took the gun and shot him just because she was babbling on, and she stopped talking as soon as the shot went off. Number two wouldn't make sense to me just because of the fact that you play as him right after the story missions finish. And I think he's a little too skilled to have his gun go off by mistake. The rabbit one, though, is very possible. In my opinion, I think he killed her. I can see how he would do it to shut her up, but he's a badass, so I don't think he'd waste a bullet on just shutting her up. Link to post Share on other sites
akiheman 0 Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 man this is confusing! claude didnt kill maria.the game ends with a bang.thats all! or wait was i joking first time i finished the game i heard the bang. i first thought he killed her but then i realised he banged his shotgun to warn her. and gta1,chatterbox is a looped wav.its not a realtime radio!

Cartel Cruiser 0 Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 i dont care about Maria, After what she put me thru, with the Mafia and Thier Shotguns, ur dam right i would've killed her!! i bet if Maria kept her mouth shut, i would've been a Made Man, and the Mafia would like me but no.............

Ziggy455 708 Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 If somebody screwed you over nine years of some Bonnie and Clyde sh*t, you'd be pissed too. Claude never knows the whereabouts of Catalina so when he does, he's just in it for revenge. Besides Maria was annoying anyway. Link to post Share on other sites
AB0333 14 Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 i bet if Maria kept her mouth shut, i would've been a Made Man, and the Mafia would like me but no............. Yeah, you would have, but nobody cares about anyone. It's all about money. Screw that sh*t with Made Man and "part of family". About Maria...hell, I haven't even completed the game yet (find out why in my interests box), but here: First version - Claude killed Maria - Well, honestly, she was a, shortly, a bitch and useless. She would only bring the problems to Claude. She has a big mouth, so if I was there I would kill her. But it isn't in R* style. I don't know. Second version - Claude didn't kill Maria. Well, yea, it sounds Rockstar-ish. Maybe Claude gave sign to Maria to shut up, to be quiet and, simply, end. End of the line, end of the all troubles, end of story and finally, peace and peaceable life... In Rockstar style. But, who knows...maybe even R* doesn't exactly know did he killed Maria. That's their style, like someone said, they always left you in dark. And that's cool. Games with obvious and too happy end are boring, they don't interest you so much, so yea...I say that it is best like this... Sorry for the bump, though.

Claude Speed. 10 Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 I also think she got shot. I don't think Claude went after Maria because she got him in trouble. He most likely didn't need a whore as a girlfriend. Link to post Share on other sites
Dingleman 386 Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Personally, I believe Claude shot himself in the head to get out of Marias bitching NeatSquid 1 Link to post Share on other sites
onlyname 2 Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 No, I don't think Claude does. I think it's just to finish the game with a bang. After you've completed the game, listen to Chatterbox. I believe you hear Maria saying something about Claude. No chatter box is on a reapeating run. Even before you meet Maria she will be on the radio talking about Claude. But in my opinion Claude did kill Maria because she wouldnt shut up but Maria could've killed Claude but we'll never know. ClaudeTheMan 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Djdevin10 0 Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 i think he killed her but.... What rockstar games should have done was when maria wouldnt shout the hell up they should have Claude say "SHUT THE f*ck UP BITCH, NOBODY WANTS TO HERE YOUR TALKING" that would have been epic Link to post Share on other sites

ClaudeSpeed_ToniLeonefan1 2 Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 Ultimately THIS is why we want a sequel and why R* don't make number 5 (if it is gonna be made) in the year 02 or 03 wouldn't really be a bad thing but either way I think he did kill her because I have no imagination and that's the only reason why I'm saying that.

cladeakacool 2 Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 there are many guesses on this topic , heres my theory for everyone that i heard 1 ) CLAUDE KILLS MARIA - i believe 99.9 % in it as he dragged him all way long to save her , although he wanted revenge from catalina but still he saved her from dying and maria was like " it is all messed up with my hair and nails " and clade would be like WTF ! so he decided to kill her . also if you notice the mission LAST REQUESTS , maria betrayed salvatore , so claude shot her because he dint want any witness .he could have also killed her because he thought that she was just a burden to take care in future and can ce a trouble > so he shooted her . 2 ) HE JUST DID SO TO WARN HER AND SHUT HER MOUTH UP - it is 50-50 for me to decide , if he wanted her to shut he could have kept his hand on her mouth , and if he just shooted to shut her up , there must have been a shout by maria but i din't heard anything like that , all though rockstar have voiced claude to say that only line in the game to make it more interesting . i mean everyone would say " he only speaked at last ", why and etc 3 ) HE SHOTED HIMSELF - i also believe and dont beilive it . i beilive it because he only wanted revenge from catalina and now , when he done it , he hade nothing to do but always live with a feelinglike " whole city suffered because of that one girl had to die at my hands " and that think can=me in mind and he suicides . but it cannot be trusted as maria would have shouted on that moment and claude his found to be at his safehouse after the job . but he could'nt have died 4 A CARTEL SHOTS MARIA AND RUNS AWAY - that was the theory by me , i though a cartel was left and he shoted maria , it can also be thought that he shoted both claude and maria as a shot was shooted from a shotgun ( probably shooting two or more bullests at a time ) and when it comes to the question that who do we play as after the mission " the exchange " , i dont think it have anything to do with a storyline and it was just because of a ivdeogame 5 CATALINA SURVIVES AND SHOT THEM BOTH - well this is a theory by a friend of mine , idont think it could happen as whole helicopter was destroyed and blated in mid air , even if catalina jupjed , she would have died 6 IT WAS JUST DONE TO MAKE THE GAME MYSTERIOUS - this can be the mosst logical theory , i recently ( like 2 days ago ) asked this on rockstar.games site . they said it's mystery is hidden in chatterbox radio in gta 3 . although i listen very carefully almost , but i only heard maria describing claude to the RJ . i dont think it is logical as i also heard that before i did the final mission 7 ALL THE MISC REASONS - i heard many illogical theories like " he shooted a rabbit " or " he shooted mistakenly " . this is all rubish they wouldnt do anything like this . this is nothing but some crazy sh*t 8 ) MARIA TOOK THE SHOTGUN AND SHOOTED CLAUDE - this is IMPOSSIBLE maria was babling and claude saved her , she could'nt do that also . some people said that maria could'nt die as someone must have arrived as all the mascare and location of the mascare was being described on some public medium . i dont think so because claude is masterkiller and odnt leave someone so easy although , a very grat game . one must to be playde and i dont think we can get answer of this until we swap lifes with claude speed . but still , i would like to go with the first one .after all , even if thousand theories are brought up , it should have and answer in GTA 4 . gta III was the v best gta . but it do not got and important thing . BIKES no no just joking , nice landscapes , killer sceanario , best patragonist , good story , many mysteries and myths , good mission and a very nice aim of getting revenge in city like liberty city . although , it still comes in my mind , all of the peds of liberty city , police dept , all suffered just because of catalina . she was a bitch tottaly Copcaller 1 Link to post Share on other sites

cladeakacool 2 Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 hey guys here something mew i thought up for that gun shot . i think it was just a signature of success like they show it in movies , whenever the criminals are happy the shot a bullet in the sky .its a very illogical theory but i think maria stoped talking because credits has started and they simply stopped her . although , even if you leave all this and see the ending very carefully . it shows up that claude is going to heaven . he had taken over bad , and if you have a clear waether in game , you see half of shoreside vale ans staunton islan and the bridge connecting them . a beautiful sceanery to look . i know r8 dint think of it any this way but it was just me to think it ( very stupid of me actaully but still since i am on that gunshot theory , i watched that ending like 17 times just to see something if i could through the credits sceen background music was good in the cutscne , it was just maria i hated in the scene she was like bla bla all the time . you won't believe , but when i first playde gta 3 ( i played it after gta vice city ) i though they were on a bridge that lead to vice city and claude is the only patragonist in vice city so foolish of me , i dint even knew that there was a gunshot . when i ended it for 5th time then leaving all the sceanery i heard it . i was like it was to indicate that credits has started . but it was wrong of me. but still , i am playing gta 4 on my ps3 , i watch everycutscene but still i dint get clue of that , i wish we get a uniform aswer which was a fact not a theory which all of us are suggesting .

Dark_side646 19 Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 (edited) So are you trying to say that Tommy and Lance never killed Diaz and that he is still alive? Because the mission where you kill Diaz also ends with a gunshot. Maybe they just kindly escorted him out of the house, dropped him at the airport, took his blessings, confessed he was like the father they never had, Lance gave a tearful farewell speech and both cried like little girls when they saw his flight take off.

SanAndreasManiac 8 Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 No! Claude Speed and Maria Latore married and had children!!!!!!! Newsflash, Cida: you are not Maria, you can't marry Claude, he's a video-game character, and you're... creepy. (god, that feels like a whole weight taken off my shoulders) ON: it clearly sounds like a "shut up bitch" shot, maybe he aimed up, or maybe he did kill her, right, he went through all that trouble to get her back, but maybe it was just to kill Catalina (another annoying bitch) either way, it's hard to be sure, R* made it all to leave a mystery in the air and very probably the same ideas I just said now were already posted by someoe else Link to post Share on other sites
