WhistleBlower Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 (edited) I was looking through the GTA III manual seeing if I could find the name of the guy who worked on the GTA III main theme and I couldn't find it. But at the same time I was reminded of how obvious it was that not only would the next game be set in Vice City, that it would have a pretty strong Scarface vibe to it as well. Every song listed on the Flashback FM channel with Toni was used from the motion picture Scarface. Then I got to thinking about GTA IV. It might sound silly, but the answer could be right under our noses, in the little features that we take for granted. Most people are thinking Los Santos, right? Some insider leak or whatever from a while back. That's understandable. There's a big emphasis on celebrity life in Liberty City. And when most of us think about celebrities, we think about Hollywood. On the radio, television, Lazlow himself even acts like a washed-up celebrity with a douchebag attitude. Imagine what he'd be like in Los Santos. There was also the billboard explaining how you could visit Los Santos for a couple hundred dollars. I know there's also the possibility that it could be Vice City... but who is to say that Vice City won't be the location of the GTA after GTA V? Why does it have to be the same order? I'm sure they can mix it up so that with this generation we see Liberty City > Los Santos > Vice City. I mean, yeah, we see people in Liberty City talk about Vice City but, to be blunt, that's just not good enough. It'd take the fun out of speculating what the next location would end up being if it were THAT obvious. I might be missing something. I never played The Lost & The Damned or The Ballad of Gay Tony so maybe there's something on Los Santos in the episodic content for GTA IV that could be discussed alongside what I'm talking about.

Hobo-Lord Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 I want to clear some facts up, The insider talked about Rockstar doing some major research on the "area surrounding Hollywood." This "insider report" was made before the announcement of the location of L.A. Noire Ergo, the insider mistakenly pointed the research Rockstar was putting in into GTA V, where it was obviously L.A. Noire Hints are not present anywhere, after the completion of GTA IV thats when they decided to pick the city so really, the only valid hints are in the expansion packs, and most likely in the Ballad of Gay Tony Here's the article: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/...tars-Dan-Houser Houser said: We'll have to think of a city first But on top of that, I have no clue what you're trying to say. You didnt provide a coherant argument of the "answer" you speak of. BTW, The GTA III went Liberty City>Vice City>San Andreas people say that vice city will not be done mostly because it has been done twice already.

BTW, The GTA III went Liberty City>Vice City>San Andreas people say that vice city will not be done mostly because it has been done twice already. You must think I'm an idiot. That article doesn't talk about the area surrounding Hollywood at all. In fact, I'm positive the leak was made earlier this year so why do you feel the need to bring up an article from 2009? Everyone knows the setting to L.A. Noire. So what is the point in even mentioning it? Oh, and would you be so kind as to share the hints from the expansion packs? Not that it would kill you or anything... I made it clear in the post that you say you have no idea what I'm talking about that I didn't play the two games. Lastly, Vice City not being chosen again simply because it was used twice is a terrible excuse. How many times did they use Liberty City now... eight times? And yes, I know the order of the cities being used. You are wasting your time telling me what I already know as my point was that they could mix it up once in a while. I do agree that I could have came up with a better title for my thread, but do I need to tl;dr my posts now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mati Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Uhm... no. You haven't made your point. There are many cities referenced in all GTAs, that doesn't mean where the next GTA will be. Locked. Post it in the location topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
