Raymond "Ray" Boccino


Recommended Posts

Hi friends, I don't understand why Niko doesn't like Ray Boccino. He was a good guy to Niko, he even gave him a house in Alderney, and he trusted Niko and brought him to work to the Pegorino Family. But in "Catch the Wave", Niko said to Phil Bell he doesn't like Ray. And the moment I most regret in the whole GTA was when I had to kill Ray. I don't know why Jimmy Pegorino thought Ray was a rat. I think that Phil Bell is jealous of Raymond. I wanted to kill Phil, the game should give us the opition!!Do you think Ray Boccino looks like an older Claude Speed? I think, Claude is hotter anyway, but both are tall, charming and brunettes. And who was the woman Ray Boccino was talking to the phone, in the mission Museum Piece? I am jealous tounge2.gif

 

Obs.: Please people, let's talk only about Ray sad.gifsad.gif

I enjoyed killing Ray. There was something about him I never liked and besides, he didn't trust Niko because in the mission where you killed Ray Pegorino said Ray hired Bodyguards because he didn't trust Niko.

 

But yes, Ray was pretty cool... While he lasted.

I think Niko was very bad to kill Ray. I'm so sad because he killed him, he was cool to Niko, I don't know why Niko doesn't like him. And Jimmy is crazy!.

 

People, don't you think Ray looks older than 35 years? He seems to be in this 50's!

Ray seemed too good to be true, and yes I hated Jimmy, He offered a pretty cool final mission though, I chose revenge btw. If you like Ray so much then get GTAIV for PC and get his model and turn all the other Pedestrians into him. Play as him if u want, I'm sure there's a Mod for that somewhere.

All the Claude Speed bs aside, i agree with cidamelo.

 

I always liked Niko and thought he was a decent, fair guy but i still can't understand his attitude towards Ray. For a slimy gangster, i always thought Ray seemed like a pretty honest guy. He was always straight with Niko.

 

Right from the get-go, all Ray promised Niko was that he had work for him and that he'd pay, helping him find Florian was a bonus and nothing more than a maybe. Niko was civil to him up until a few missions in and then was suddenly pissed at Ray because he hadn't helped find who he was looking for. Eventually Ray came through for him and helped him find Florian and still Niko never appreciated him.

 

When it comes to him or Phil, i would say Phil was the nicer guy but I don't think Ray was a rat and didn't deserve to get whacked.

 

I'd say Boccino's character model looks mid 40's.

Hi WF the Hobgoblin! I'm glad you like Ray, he is an awesome and stylish character! I like Niko very much too, but I never could understand why he didn't like Ray. Ray was a good guy, even that sometimes he could get angry, he was a well-polited man! Ray helped Niko a lot, and I don't know why Jimmy thought he was a rat. I think it's prejudice, because he was very classy and well-polited. I know a lot of well-polited people like Ray, who is seen like a false person, just because most people don't trust in well-polited people like Ray. Yes, he looks like he is in the 40's. Men that time were very stylish alien.gif ! Do you think he reminds an older Claude Speed?

toni cinpriani When I play The Lost And Damned, I'll see if I will still like Ray or not. But, at least in GTA IV, he seems to be very nice, and Johnny Klebitz seems to be bad.

I had a feeling that Ray was gonna have to be killed since I saw him, it seems like most people Niko associates with end up dead. Playboy X (or Dwayne) get killed by Niko, Francis or Derrick and judging by the choice you make in the last mission, Kate or Roman.

Ray was a snake, he used charm and wit to sneak past peoples defences and manipulate them into doing his bidding, luckily Niko saw through him.

You mean, just as he did with Ashley Butler ?

 

And wasn't it actually Jimmy Pegorino who saw trough him and Niko Bellic had just followed his order executing Ray Boccino ?

I didn't mind Ray in GTA IV, thought he was a bit up himself, but after Playing The Lost and Damned, he was such a prick in the way he treated the Bikers, treated them like scum, dirt, etc, no wonder they ripped him off! Also for what he did with Ashley!

Ok people, when I play TLAD I'll see if Ray is really that bad. And who is Ashley? Is she that crackhead that appears in Taking The Trash? She's ugly, what have Ray seen on her sad.gif ?

I liked Ray Boccino. His character was sculpted very well and the best example of a modern mobster, street level anyway, in the series so far.

There's no second guessing with him. No sugar coating. No halo. It's clear to see what scum he is from day one. He feeds addictions for his own personal and profitable gains and doesn't care about making sacrifices when it comes to taking the heat off of himself. Given his ambitious and greedy nature one would assume he would possibly get rid of Jimmy Pegorino and take over the family himself if things weren't falling apart, but it wasn't to be.

It's also interesting how many gangs he's involved with; the McReary's, the Lost, and the Dominicans in Leftwood and Northwood. What's to say he wasn't ratting out the Pegorino's to one of the other mob families, for instance the Gambetti's, seen as he seems to have interests in areas that one wouldn't expect seen as he's from the wrong side of the river such as Broker and Algonquin. I'm sure he would jump ship given the chance rather than taking control of a sinking vessel.
