Mapping Los Santos! Building/landmark analysis

[_Kindled_]

Is this legit?

i highly doubt LV is in the map. theres no space to put a large city like that. unless they minimise the size of it.

Las Vegas isn't really bigger than Los Angeles.

[Red XIII]

There is definitely a fairly large metropolis somewhere!

I'm honestly not sure. When you think about it, how much of the east side of the map have we seen? Pretty much none, as far as the coastline goes, plus we know it is a desert area. The geography would fit as well - Las Vegas is NE of LA, Las Venturas in this case would be NE of LS. If you look at the blueprint map, there are 2 freeways heading NE out of LS. I'm just throwing ideas out here, I don't necessarily believe this.

Yes, and it is in the south of the map and called Los Santos.

 

 

I don't see how that sign more than likely spells Las Ventura (which should be Las Venturas with an s). It is simply too blurred to make out any of the words. We couldn't even make out the words of one of the signs in the Trevor police chase scene from the gameplay trailer and that text was actually easier to see.

Other than Los Santos...smart ass.

i sharpened the sign area a little and it there definitely a V there. DEFINITELY.

 

i take back what i said earlier

 

[K20]

a bit more closer... you can make out north and a V in the area name.

Someone who had photoshop cs6 deblurring tool try to clear this image!

[YukiEiri]

I'm not sure this was discussed/confirmed...

Everything matches imo, except some marks that don't appear on the road from the building view.

It was very briefly discussed some time ago and with similar outcome.

But you made nice comparison pic which we did not have or bothered to make, so points to you sir.

[Fido_le_muet]

No way it says Las Venturas.

Wishful thinking it is.

Mother of God...let the speculation ensue.

Wasting time you guys are.

It's a V and you know it.

Or we could be dissapointed

Highly doubt it.

[RockKiller]

The first word has 5+ letters so it isn't Las- i bet for it showing "Blaine County"

[GrahfTheEmperor]

Indeed it's a V. It could very well be 'Ventura' or 'Venturas' by the lenght of the word, but the first word cannot be 'Las', since it's longer in lenght.

[hhamzah99]

It surely isnt saying LAS tho...

[_Kindled_]

Someone use the de blur tool in Photoshop CS6, already!

[gwaha]

The first word has more than 3 letters but I don't see it having 5 + letters somehow. The first word looks to be about the same size/length as where it likely reads "north". It saying Blaine County doesn't make sense either since the last word is most definitely lengthier than the first and "county" just doesn't fit. There seems to smaller looking letters in the ending of the last words and bigger looking letter in the middle.

It can't be done. The resolution is way too low for it to work.

I have no idea what you guys are talking about, I cant see sh*t in that zoomed in pic

[Arquit3D]

Maybe... but i don't think so cuz they should have revealed that yesterday and they only said grand theft aut online in august although i remember a other quote they said " A LOT OF INFO COMING IN AUGUST" which in my opinion means more than only GTA Online.

As Rockstar said yesterday:

Stay tuned for much more details and media from the game in August including the first proper unveiling of Grand Theft Auto Online

 

More details

More media

First proper unveiling of GTAO

I ain't no god, mate. Look at my picture.

 

Now seriously, I tried doing it even knowing it wouldn't work, and it just won't work.

Exactly. All you can see is a blur and make a distinction between taller letters and smaller letters but even then you can't even make out the actual letters. There could be a V on that sign but I am not 100 % convinced. It more than likely doesn't say Las Venturas though. _Kindled_ only wants it to be true based on his posting history.

[KawakSallas]

It says Los/Las and the first letter of the second word is a L....

 

Los Lagos, Las Lagunas, Los Locos, Las Laricas, I don't know
