Insom Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 I think Rockstar is really overstating the fact that this game will be about glitz and glamour. Niko and Johnny were small time. Luis is working for the REAL big players like Yusuf so he gets the finer things such as gold phones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SafetyCatch Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 I think they're taking it over the top, though. Gold guns, gold cars, gold phones, gold helicopters. At least tone it down a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CookPassBabtridge Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 At the end of the day, we will only see the face of the phone when we 'pop it up' like in IV, so gold or not, whats to worry about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pumpkin Zone Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 If it WAS a gold phone, and I still refuse to believe it even if he did say gold phone and it is a gold phone because that is silly.. I think it's literally a joke. Like, it's a phone. Made out of solid gold. The buttons are gold. The screen is gold. Everything is gold. It doesn't even work, because it's solid gold. He has that kind of wealth to have a phone made of gold that doesn't even work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all we know it could be a glare on the GOLD, since GOLD is shiny. Why would Luis hold it with the screen face down? We'll just have to see in game if it is or not.

liquidus119 Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 I'm having a love/hate deal with Yusuf right now. He seems like he is going to be extremely annoying, but at the same time he seems like everything Roman wanted to be so he should be funny. I hope they pull him off well. The obsession with gold is starting to make him look like Goldfinger/Goldmember haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZAZEL Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Why would Luis hold it with the screen face down? Correction, he catches it with the screen facing down. In the other screenshots, both Yusuf and Luis hold this gold bar of yours, as a phone. Is common sense now so rare, that we should call it something else?

AZAZEL Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Well how would YOU hold a gold bar? More importantly, why would you toss it to someone while proclaiming it to be a phone?

supermortalhuman Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 End of thread: It IS a gold phone, it is NOT a real phone, it is just a phone made from gold. It is not just a gold bar, it is gold fashioned into a phone with merely the point of showing blatant richness - nothing more. Those who assume this phone could be used miss the ENTIRE point of it as a joke for how rich that guy is that he gets a gold phone, cause it's all about the best phone... can't call anyone with it, but my phone is gold, we gettin arab money... It is a part of that cutscene, and that's it. Inept is indeed the word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schweppez Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Its already been proven the gold bar has a screen on it, some guy posted still shots of the video when Yusuf throws the phone to Luis. So it's a phone. Anyways, TBOGT is not even out yet, so dont say its not a phone when you dont even know. Enough said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
