Lol "A source told The Noble Eskimo that Grand Theft Auto V will present a more serious, gritty tone than previous titles and that the game's producers were very impressed by the depth of Gottfried's portrayal of the character Iago in Disney's Aladdin." How can anyone take this seriously

He looks like an experienced voice actor but it's hard to imagine him as the main protagonist in the next Grand Theft Auto.

 

If the Rockstar's response (the poster) is not a bogus we can consider him taking a role in the game just like the movie on that poster 'cause I don't think they're going to joke about this "situation" with a sh*tty "problem child" written poster on it.

Ivan the not so Terrible

That's what I'm saying.

R* could of returned a response with a simple no or no comment, but instead they chose to post that poster. It's very unlikely for them to play along, It's not their style. That's what makes this confusing yet interesting.

The voice actor of CJ was Young Malay, who is a famous rapper.

Define "famous" ...

Someone who is well known, and makes a lot of credit and fame for his/her creations. That's my definition, what's yours?

I don't know... he was like "i hate japan lol". I can't tell what he is EXACTLY referring to. Maybe he just blurted it out either as a retarded joke, or the location. monocle.gif

 

Well...he just had returned back from Tokyo. So who knows if he had a rough time while he was there. It's chaos down there. I'd come screwed up too. panic.gif

So maybe everyone took his statement out of context?

Anyways, I still believe his statement about GTA Next is true and will continue to believe it, until it's confirm otherwise.

Actually i think you are correct, on second thought what he said wasn't really bad, just taken the wrong way.

Something probably happened while he was there, like he got mugged or something.

The Japanese people are civilized. They wouldn't a mug a person, at least most of them wouldn't.

what was the best role the voice actors of CJ and Niko had again?

 

The voice actor of CJ was Young Malay, who is a famous rapper.

Don't know about Nikos though.

Young Malay isn't really what you would call famous ala Jay Z, Eminem ect. But then again millions of GTA fans know, or should know his name.

 

 

I like Gilbert Gottfried alot, but I am just having a hard time picturing him as a voice actor for a GTA protagonist. Of course this story isn't true but im just saying.

I could see him playing a lead role. Like that of Eddie Low or Brian from TLAD. Not truely a lead role.

Like a "problem child" of sorts. biggrin.gif

I think that it was just a joke why would they even have a washed up old guy like Gilbert to be the main charcter. Of anything I think Gilbert would be like someone you do missions for or just someone just talk to on the street for side missions. Or he could have been lieing just to see gta fans get all hype up and sh*t to hear more news(rumors) about the next GTA.

GTA wouldn't be complete without a zany character anyway! I think he could be involved.

Yeah every GTA has had a Zany/wierd/wacky character.

 

GTA III had Catalina

GTA Vice City had Kent paul and Love fist

GTA San Andreas featured The Truth, Zero, Maccer, Catalina, OG LOc/

GTA IV Featured Brucie who was very zany.

TLAD featured Brian and the mayor.

TBOGT featured Brucie and his brother Mori.

TLAD featured Brian and the mayor.

I think it was Thomas Stubbs. The senator who wanted to be elected as mayor.

Gilbert Gottfried, hmmm

as stated before for rumouring GTA V cast these were the most suspicious ->

Mitch Hayes:

38 - Annoying, wise cracking, highly successful FBI agent. In great shape. Does triathlons, drinks low cal beer, but still has a sense of humor.

or

Clyde:

23 - Moronic, almost inbred and creepy white trash hillbilly. Very naïve but in a creepy 'it's only incest sort of way'

IMO, those would be perfect for Gilbert to voice act for. seriously : D

I don't believe it.

 

Him voicing the protagonist in GTA V? assuming that it'll actually be called GTA V?! hell no, he doesn't fit a protagonist character, only as a side character.

Just in case there's anyone here that believes this story, here's the site it was originally taken from. Here's is a taste of their other main stories:

 

* PAX East Attendees Showing Symptoms of Bubonic Plague *3.12.11

 

* Valve: 93% of Steam Users Born on January 1 *3.10.11

 

* Families of 'Best Buy Midnight Massacre' Victims Get Free Copies of Dragon Age 2 *3.8.11

 

* Dead or Alive: Boobies Announced at GDC 2011 *3.3.11

 

The story is completely fictional, written by a satire gaming news site. There was no tweet, Gottfried has no connection to GTA V and he never claimed to. You all got trolled.

What a coincidence on his Twitter bio it reads:

 

 

Mr. Gottfried served 8 years in prison for beating up an Eskimo.

It's that him just being sarcastic? I didn't notice it before.

What a repugnant little man. His face resembles a cats anus.

I cannot fathom why he would be the main character. The suicide rate would really jump up. At least it's all a joke.

Unfortunately there is just too much doubt to believe it. I could see him in the game, but with not even a screenshot of the tweet there's just not enough backbone in it. At least with those RUSH rumours we had actual cast lists to look at etc. And the fact that this is a satire site doesn't help much. Oh well, pass me the next 'leak' ...roll on E3 biggrin.gif

Could someone please give a proper explanation of what Rockstar replied to the twitter leak?

Rockstar sent back a poster of his film Trouble Child so it hints to me that he's just being a prick for attention

^This.

 

I mean, seriously, he's making insensitive comments about Japan. The fact that most people know him as that parrot from Aladdin goes to show how washed-up he is, which, you know what, reminds me of Charlie Sheen as well who believes in those 9/11 conspiracy theories.
