TLAD compared to SOA .........

[AnthMUFC-Champs 101]

I was just wondering was Rockstar Games inspired by Fox's hit TV show "Sons of Anarchy" when developing "The Lost And Damned" ? Both artworks seem extremely similar and even elements from the story reminded me of the show. Was just wanting to here your guys thoughts on this subject.

Most likely not, just because you'd think that if someone like Rockstar* were going to make a game about biker's, they'd probably want a better source than just a regular show that is extremely toned down, violence wise, just for T.V...

Are we watching the same show? They keep replaying [season 4 spoiler] Juice shooting Miles in the eye during every episode's opening recap. GTA IV doesn't even show bullet holes on NPCs.

 

EDIT: spoiler tags for countries that aren't on the 4th season yet.

...So you've not watched Sons of Anarchy have you? And yes, TLAD took a lot from the show, there's even a homage from the show by having a character called "Clay" in the MC.
