SirPsychoSexy Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Haha I think Frickie Van Hardenburg is South African, I should know because I'm a South African Frickie is a common Afrikaans name together with Van. Don't know about Hardenburg though (sounds more European). Not to mention the fact that they refer to him as a controversial 'African' arms-dealer. So I think he might be Rock*'s first South African character, which is awesome Kinda reminds me of Blood Diamond Loved that movie, one of the best I've seen! This is too awesome to be true! Can't wait til October 29th! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeppelincheetah Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Yep, it has the double hood scoops. Well I'll be damned, they're actually gonna add it. This is truly the best DLC ever. can you please tell me where that pic comes from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamesguru Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Ha true, but you can have rain and snow intermix, so it might have rained previously/during. Plus undoubtedly for some people here an umbrella still isn't enough proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgrogfefji82 Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 What is the deal with all the TAMPA hype, I do not get it, it's just a car, what's the special thing about it? Please explain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnero Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 What is the deal with all the TAMPA hype, I do not get it, it's just a car, what's the special thing about it?

zeppelincheetah Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 (edited) What is the deal with all the TAMPA hype, I do not get it, it's just a car, what's the special thing about it? Please explain I don't really care that much about it either. The reason there's so much hype about it is it was originally supposed to be in TLAD but was taken out. edit: same time post! edit 2: whoa quadruple same time post!!!!

CookPassBabtridge Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I dont get it either. Pretty average looking to me, and too similar to the existing muscle cars. Wasnt the Tampa a bit of a jalopy in SA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffalosoulj4h20 Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I don't get the Tampa hype either. I bet most will just drive it around for awhile and forget about it later on. Edit: lol, all at the sametime we don't get it. Must be a fad on here. I know it was spotted in L&D, but it doesn't look special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aChaChaCha Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 (edited) So....much...confirmed pretty awesome trailer, its like tripled the hype i had for TBoGT now Weapons in action Possible gun dealer revealed Another quickie at the new hidden ''package'' bird And even a surprisingly close to the truth percentage on how ginger people are hated (in the sliding news text) to which i have no trouble with the red-heads btw, i mean i've got auburn hair myself And since that Tampa is the latest highlight of conversation well sure i'll give it a go when i get the chance but it'll act as just another vehicle to hijack when necessary, not something i'll honestly keep an eye out for. I mean it looks...pretty plain in all honesty. With Luis anywhoo i'll try to keep myself caged up in Schafters and Intruders for the most part Edited September 17, 2009 by aChaChaCha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeppelincheetah Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Is anybody actually hyped for the tampa? I'm not either... I'm a little hyped for it now that I see it's a new muscle car. I wasn't hyped at all for it before because tampa in vice city and san andreas was a piece of sh*t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viken9191 Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 (edited) What's that thing next to the Statue of Happiness right after the explosion? It looks like a fighter Jet to me. Lots of the footage use home camera technique kinda like Cloverfield. Edit: Whoops, after I watched the trailer again it was either a piece from the statue or from the buzzard helicopter.

Yeah I know a lot of people are hyped for it but we were like 5 posters in a row not really caring I don't mind the Tampa, I'm sure it's gonna be cool, just not what I'm most psyched for!

KGBeast Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I am big time hyped for the Tampa. It's just so big and boxy, truly a beauty compared to the likes of the more rounded Dukes and Stallions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EduardKoeleJuck Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 (edited) Yep, it has the double hood scoops. (Tampa) Well I'll be damned, they're actually gonna add it. This is truly the best DLC ever. can you please tell me where that pic comes from? It's in the Bradygames Guide for GTA IV: TLaD. It looks pretty cool. Also, did you goys notice the white car (I'm sure it's based on theRolls Royce Phantom Drophead at 1.42 - 1.47? It looks aw'some!! And for the people that didn't know: the LMG (not an M60) is an M249 SAW. And yes, Frickie van Hardenburg is holding a golfclub. But I already expected it to be ingame, because of the minigolfing minigame. And I think it's snow, haven't you guys noticed how slowly it's falling? Why else would they give a clue like that? And I think there are gonna be some kind of undercover cops, you know, when they talk about the Special Unit? @zeppelincheetah: I don't think there was a Tampa in Vice City... EDIT: Why is nobody paying any attention to the EoLC cover? I see some kind of Ford GT in the bottom left.

Slomojoe Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I'll just go ahead and edit this post for a bit Well it looks like the Police Stockade might be returning for more than just one lousy mission! Alright, I don't think anyone has talked about this before. So we've got confirmation that you can walk on subways. And theres confirmation that one of the missions involves jumping out of a building onto the back of a truck and getting away. So, that basically confirms that we can get ontop of a car without falling off now. Has anyone thought about that? I can't wait to see how the Euphoria engine shows Luis trying to hold on while the car moves. Well, all those parts are for missions, so you probably still can't Also, that car you guys are saying is the Tampa looks like a Stallion to me.

ChrisMathers3501 Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 What I found interesting was that this takes place in 2009, whereas GTA4 takes place in 2008. I guess GTA4 begins in 2008 and ends in 2009 then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thornberry1138 Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Don't know if this has been mentioned but, anyone think the night vision in the new vid is a cutscene or will we be able to use it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OGLuke Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Now that noose is deploying there elite to LC does this mean the gangs will be tougher to kill? Maybe we'll go back to the good ole days of GTA where gangsters wore bulletproofvest and carryed around ak-47s in large groups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
