So from what I know is that Rockstar Games replied with this " No Claude did not kill Maria at the end of GTA III. It was a sound glitch that was never intended to occur at the end of the game, but did."

Please don't change the original words that R* wrote. This is their actual answer:

Claude could have shot up in the air,Not at Maria,but just shot a bullet in the air to tell her that he does not care about her complains after all he's been through and shut up

I seriously doubt Claude would kill Maria after all the trouble he went through just to save her.

so for any gta 3 fan wondering why did claude kill maria its simple, cuz first of all, maria is a gold digger that spents salavatores money, and at the final mission the exchange when claude gets a million dollars he kills maria cuz if he kept maria alive she would simply spent his money aswell until its finished.

a silent man and a blabber would never work.

 

Its only implied he shoots her, he could just shoot in the air to shut her up. Just an end game funny.

a "Shut up biatch" moment.

RIP Rockstar Games

Claude DOESN'T kill Maria, he justs fires his gun in the air to shut her up, she was talking nonstop and that would upset even a guy like Wu Zi Mu. It wouldn't make sense if Claude killed her, because only reason Claude went to Catalina's mansion in The Exchange was to pay the rescue for Maria and get her back safe and sound. Otherwise, he would just pop up in the place and start shooting whoever is on his sight. The main reason for that mission is to save Maria at all costs, and the second one is to kill Catalina.

Because Maria gave him an Olive Garden gift card for his birthday and when he went to use it he found it it was already used up

To be exact, we don't really know if Claude killed her or not, we just heard a shot at the very end, we can only speculate :/ In my personal opinion, he just fired the gun in order to shut her up as LeatherJacketSoldier said, her talking was really irritating..

How do you know Maria didn't kill Claude?

Well, if Maria could shoot Claude, she might as well have fighted alongside Claude during the last part of The Exchange. That, of course, if there's a way Maria could have kept a gun well hidden in her clothes. And since none of that happened... Well, you know what that means.

Why would he even pay ransom if he would kill her later? OP thesis doesn't make any sense.

But we don´t know if she died, starting with that, even R* says that her fate it´s unknown...

I actually feel it more as a "joke" as R* seems to say, that it was a random idea that the sound team decided to add instead of a Maria long speech as they planned... so I always felt it as a R* "joke" instead of something canon (the theory of Claude killing Maria because of the gun shot sound)

Because she was, like all New Yorkers, very loud.

We don't know, and probably will never know from R* officialy, but I've always wanted to believe that it was just a warning shot and that they have gone separate ways

Y'all don't get that Claude didn't give a sh*t about Maria, he just wanted to kill Catalina.

It was actually a coincidence that he got those connections from her. You know how Maria behave, she even felt in love with Toni, sometimes I feel she's braindead or something and even be a couple with a tramp, lol. I mean, If not Maria, Claude would die in this car trap in Red Light District.. She saved him, so what's the point of killing her besides that she's talking too much? And what my previous speakers said, what's the point of leaving Maria Latore alive in the final cutscene, if he didn't care at all? :) If he wouldn't care, he could even kill her there on the Cochrane Dam Building.

Ok, so I just got done beating this game, so I notice at the end of the game, like Maria is talking to Claude and then I notice like right at the very end of the game, the screen just fades black and the game just ends with a gunshot and then Maria is silenced after this, so, I guess, does this leave me to assume that Claude kills Maria??? That's a kind of weird ending for a game......I spent the whole last mission saving Maria's ass, only to kill her at the end??? lol

It's just so Maria can shut up or something, it doesent have any point killing her after you saving her

If Maria killed by Claude it might be because 

SHE CANT STFU AND SPEAKS WHOLE TIME

Claude just used her to show catalnia that he got a new girl

and MAYBE CLAUDE KNEW ABOUT MARIA's PAST ( she married sal for money dated toni as a bodygaurd and tried to date claude as well

 

If she's alive

THEN.... Claude either shut her or Just A Rocking Ending BY R*

Maybe Maria didn’t mean any harm to Claude but Claude still was suspicious, cuz anyway, it was pretty obvious that she was a gold digger and a prostitute, example rejecting Toni and during the mission Chaperone,

 

’Well you don’t think I hang around for the conversation do you?’ Pretty sus in my opinion.

 

Also on gta 3 fandom it says that Maria was Salvatore’s ‘trophy wife’. Of cause Maria only married Salvatore because he was rich, and she also wanted to have s** with Salvatore 

(pls don’t take down this post GTAforums)

 

Leaving that aside, also Maria is capable of attracting trouble. She always hangs out with shady people at shady parties, and buys SPANK. Now even after Claude gained control over Liberty City the Colombian cartel and maybe other hostile gangs will not be happy and they will try to kidnap Maria while she’s at the club and then force Claude to pay ransom.
 

Claude is smart. He knew Maria could get in the way of his quest of Liberty City’s domination, she was just gonna be a big hole in his pocket, so he disposed of her when he could.

In fact, it is very difficult to say anything specifically about Mary here. Despite the official response from the developers, each player decides for himself whether she was killed or not. After all, Maria has changed a lot since her first appearance in the game story, special attention was paid to her metamorphosis in Liberty City Stories.

He didn't kill her. Claude isn't an idiot, if he didn't care about her he would have just killed her during the battle. He made the effort to save her. Also the radio at the end says that witnesses saw a dark haired woman (Maria obviously) leaving with Claude, therefore she left with Claude alive. Claude didn't have a reason to hate her either, if anything she was the only person to like him that is still alive.

He wouldn't have gone to the effort of saving her if that was the case

He just wanted to get close to Catalina to kill her... and for that he needed the money to sneak inside. Maria was just a side-thing for him, not his main goal.
