And @Mafiakissass2023975 up there, I'm fairly sure the mafia does not rob military bases and blow up building with fighter jets. Not quite sure what hole you pulled that one from.

yeahh we wear those too and it means the same sh*t pretty much based on color... but you'l lsee flyers more in the hood.. i really dunno why tho

i really enjoyed in SA to be part of Grove Street; I always recruited a homie and drive around SA. When he would be killed it really felt like a dead homie. They should even expand this feature of recruiting and being part of a streetgang. That was what made SA for me really special

It's cool, but it's a lot.Not complaining, more that I'm not sure that R* would put that much into it.

 

Plus there's a few things to keep in mind:

 

• Nuestra Familia/Norteños and Latin Kings have a very very small presence if at all in LA
• la eme, black guerilla family and the aryan brotherhood are primarily prison based. They do hold a lot of sway, but it's through their street counterparts such as the sureños and nlr. It would be interesting to have a part of the game with the protagonist being in prison and dealing with these gangs, but I'm not sure if it will happen
• The sureños are a big group... just like the bloods and crips they have various sets that may fight amongst each other, but all are considered sureños. 18th street for example is a sureño gang and both Vagos and Barrios Aztecas from SA would be considered sureños; simply put if you're a mexican gangbanger from southern california that is allied with la eme you are a sureño. MS-13 I guess you could argue are as well since they also are afiliated with la eme but I'm not sure that they identify as such since they are not mexican. Point being you would have one gang model with several sets (just as families and ballas were in SA)
• A lot of the ethnic street gangs are very much tied to said ethnicity's mafia or a prison gang. This is particularily true of the Armenian and Asian gangs; so you might not see a distinction between armenian and korean street gang and armenian and korean mafia in the game. I personally don't know a lot about the asian street gangs but I want to say that the wa ching is like a triad type group and some of asian gangs work for them... not sure about that though.
• The skinheads remain this controversial thing that I think a lot of publishers don't want to include in these types of games so I'm not that they'll show up. Still... I personally think that they'd make a great villain.

@ Sanjeem

 

There is no confusion between the Armenian gangs and the Russian Mob on the West Coast being mistaken as the 'same'. The Russian Mob does have its own significant presence and some influence on organized crime in Los Angeles/California and the West Coast, but not as much as they do in New York and the East Coast. The Armenian gangs in LA/California are very powerful and influential there and they are a completely seperate and different group from the West Coast Russian Mob. The Made Man is right. The Russian and Armenian mobs/gangs in California are not the same and they both exist in the same West Coast regions seperately of each other. I mean after all, the Russian Mob were featured in San Andreas, that should tell you something, or give you an idea at least.

 

However, I agree with you in saying we will still see the Italian-American Mafia GTA V, but on a much smaller scale than we saw in GTA IV. You are correct, the Italian-American Mafia still is very active in California, but their influence and presence there is not that great anymore, and it is very moderate compared with other regions in the US, like the North-East and maybe the Midwest, where Mafia influence and power is still very strong, even in today's times.

 

 

Oh Ok I see, It'd judt hard to search them on internet because it's easy to look for Armenian power on the web, you're the expert thouh so I trust you plus what you say, thanks for clearing it up buddy

[fooltheman]

I apologize in advance if this is flamebait. I don't mean it to me. I also apologize for my verbosity, but I promise the reply to be a worthy read.

 

The first GTA game I ever played was SA. My friend insisted that I try it even though the thought of playing as some tatter-dressed washed-up disorganized simple street thug did not interest me in the slightest. Low and behold I loved it. Don't know how many hours I racked up on it, but I still play it from time to time.

 

GTA IV finally released and my main character is instead mafia. I found that incredibly boring and had very little to do with something called Grand Theft Auto. It didnt have the grit of the streets, just mafia ladder climbing and power plays. I wanted more of the chop shops, the trash-talking, the thieving-because-you-werent-part-of-a-rich-organization (ever), the car customization to reflect your clan, the spitting in the face of cops/FBI/army because you werent trying to run some respectible front or have paid-off judges/cops/politicians, and most of all the ACTUAL STEALING of cars, not taking cab rides around for your respectable self with no actual need/desire to even store a stolen car. Never mind the plethora of sandbox elements that GTA IV didnt have that SA did, that alone made the game pretty boring for me.

 

Seeing that GTA V is set in Los Santos is very exciting for someone like me. I'm not saying that I have to be Carl, but I definitely want to be a pee-on-the-cops-shoes up and coming gangmember. It would be ludicrous to not have the GS OG's in the game because we left them in control in SA. And Grove Street is in LS, not in LV or SF. But I'm not saying that we should be GS again. I think a new game moving into Los Santos to attempt to establish control would be pretty interesting, with a lot of good emotional impact for the veteran SA players. The assumption would have to be that Carl is killed or gone and GS has been corrupted and therefore no longer has the right to rule the streets. But they are powerful, so they'd have to be dealt with.

 

I know the sales figure state that GTA IV is the most popular GTA ever, but to me it barely qualified as a sandbox. With the lack of garages/car customization/motivation to steal cars, lack of built-in sandbox elements like the wonderful motorcycle leap (with parachute) off the tower. In fact, the only built-in elements that I found besides pool and bowling (and poor designed bowling at that) was jumps, and not nearly as many as there were in SA. I truely fail to understand why the game was even popular when it didnt live up to its literal namesake or its sandbox genre, but I understand I have the minority opinion on that. I sold it 3 weeks after I bought it for a mere $6 at Gamestop (PS3 version) because they had so many that they couldnt get rid of that I believe that effectively proves that its replay value just wasnt there, a significant indicator of a lack of sandbox play, and therefore its inflated sales figures are not a proper representation of game quality. In fact, I dare say that those sales figures actually reflect SA, as gamers assumed they would get something at least as fun.

 

However, we are back in Los Santos now, so perhaps Rockstar has listened to folks like myself. After shelling out $60 and expelling too many years of held breath only to be presented with what was effectively a linear walkthrough, I became dubious about trusting Rockstar to do something more than sell a game on hype. But I am excited by this latest news. So here's hoping...

I'm with you...

But San andreas mixed with GTA IV could make a hell of a game...

 

What the should try to avoid, is a character that is nothing more than a 'messenger'.

In TLOD you had bikemembers again... You did your missions with friends... you were more than 'a tool' for a cause of another guy.

[ElPaisa]

i think the italian mafia, and mexico's cartels will apppear in the game IF THE OLD GUY IS THE PROTAG since he has more of a Mafia/Cartel type of look! But now if the guy in the red car is the protag i think we will see some ghetto gangs! and possibly the italian mafia and mexico's cartel's 2 WHO KNOWS? its just my opinion

To be honest a lot of this sounds pretty retarded. "Black Gorrilla Family"? "Peckerwoods"?? REALLY??? It sounds worse than the onlysurvivor fake leak about "families alliance" and "mafioso alliance".

 

What's next? Crazy Mafia Vice King Battalion? I want to see the Italian Mafia and have the story revolve be all about the Italian Mafia not all of this dumb gang banger crap.

How does Cherkov's list sound retarded ? He has pretty much drawn up a list of most the REAL-LIFE main gangs and criminal organizations that exist and operate in Los Angeles (save the fact that he missed out the Armenian and West Coast Russian Mobs and possibly the Mexican cartels). Whether its sounds retarded you or not, don't mean a thing because those gangs and criminal organizations are the real-life situation of Los Angeles gangland right now.

 

NEWSFLASH: The Italian Mafia in Los Angeles barely exists, and it is even quite possible they maybe be an entirely spent force in LA.

[RichCardiff]

Mafia

Russian gang, possibly two.. local street gang and supplier (cartel)

Two or three afro american gangs (Grove street, Ballas)

Columbian cartel

Latino gang (Mexican?)

Jamaican gang

which is exactly why the game shouldnt take place in los santos. It should take place in a city with a large mafia population like vice city.

 

do you really want to play a game with a gang called the "families alliance"? It sounds liek some retarded rap group for a bunch of gorillas like three six mafia (who arent even ITALIAN) or something.

You clearly have a great lack of knowledge in this subject. Sorry bro, you've hit the wrong button again.

 

The Italian Mafia is still active in some parts of South Florida, and even they are very low-key and much less powerful there these days. The Italian Mafia in South Florida have been long overshadowed by the more powerful Hispanic drug cartels since the 1980s. And there definitely is no big Mafia population in Miami (which Vice City is based on). Organized crime in Miami mostly revolves around drug trafficking and drug-dealing, of which the Italian Mafia definitely have no local control of. Most organized crime in Miami is controlled by Hispanic crime groups, primarily Cuban and Colombian. The street-level organized crime in Miami is dominated mostly by African-American, Hispanic and Haitian gangs.

 

Simply put, there is no room in Miami for any large Mafia population you speak of.

 

The only city relevant for a big Italian Mafia storyline in GTA right now would be Liberty City/Alderney (NYC/New Jersey) and thats already done in GTA IV.

[TommyVercetti1986]

WTF, aren't you guys sick of Italian mafia, GTA V should be based on street gangs and more realistic ghetto life, althrough there should be organized crime groups such as Mexican cartels, Russian mob, Triads, Yakuza etc.

We heaven't seen Yakuza since GTA III (for some people since GTA LCS), and i would really like if R* brings back the Yakuza.

[MAN IN THE DARK]

I am actually more exited about that jerry kapowitz guy in the trailer. That character could for the first time in series lead "Bum" gang. Not russians or japanese or someone else, but simple thouse discusting homeles people from the trailer.

Are you high? V is going to take place in LS an SA, whether you like it or not, how else can that be explained? The Italian-American mafia in LA as OF put it is small-scale, not major. Same in Miami, more involved than LA but the best places for Italo-Amerian organized crime is New York, New Jersey which has already been done. Other options left include Chicago, Philadelphia and Detroit. Also Montreal in Canada where they have huge power so I've read but that's different. Every GTA game so far has had the mob because in some way or form they have expandable operations, but in V they will and for the sake of realism I only hope they appear a few times.

 

Besides there are just as many other criminal groups to find

 

• African-American street gangs (Bloods and Crips)

• Hispanic drug cartels and street gangs (Sinaloa Cartel and MS-13 say)

• Armenian power

• Los Angeles based Chinese Triads.

 

All just as good, besides the Mafia were shown in IV very predominantly, maybe look further eh?

Sanjeem you know your stuff man

[[µT]]

 

do you really want to play a game with a gang called the "families alliance"? It sounds liek some retarded rap group for a bunch of gorillas like three six mafia (who arent even ITALIAN) or something.

 

First off I agree that Families Alliance sounds fruity, but also remember a lot of gangs have corny names. But I doubt Families Alliance will be an actual gang though.

There's a lot of of closet racists on this board, jesus! Many gangs add Mafia at the end of their name to inflict fear and a sense of power to whatever they're representing, it doesn't mean they're trying to be or think that they're Italian.

 

I think we'll probably see an array of gangs and various sets that claim allegiance to them. Probably some spinoffs of the Bloods, Crips, Surenos, Maravilla and Vietnamese/Asian Boyz.

 

It would cool if you could associate with different gangs and have them react to you based on your rapport with them, even if the main character isn't a gang member. For example, if you partake in missions that require killing Crips or dismantling their operations, Bloods will respond positively to you and may even help aid you in neighborhoods they control but Crips would attack you or try to kill you in if you decide to stick around too long in their neighborhoods.

[metaller]

The game probably is going to sett on the 2010´s and now street gangs have not much influence i think weere going to se strong mafia, mexican cartels obiusly latin maras and in a minnor position gangs

[PHARKIN CHERKOV]

I listed real gangs in LA except I GTA'ed them with names. Personally, I think the names I listed are pretty much perfect but I'm a television writer (I write short films for a living) so if you have a problem with the names then blargh to you. If anyone can point out the faults with my gang names then go ahead, I know Nortenos are based more up north but I included them anyway.

 

Los Soldados is a great name for a MS gang. Don't see what the problem is. The Skinz is a throwback to Manhunt, I included prison gangs because perhaps you could spend time in such a place. I like 9th Avenue as a substitute for 18th Street too.

Yeah but I bet you can't name a single gang in real life with a name as dumb as that. Let alone any gang in any previous gta game. It's just not realistic.

[n0va_sp1der]

 

Los Soldados is a great name for a MS gang. Don't see what the problem is.

Los Soldados is okay, it's just lazy. I mean, the soldiers? Plus in Mexico cartels engage in skirmishes with the army relatively often so I think they'd want to avoid seeming affiliated with them in any way.

Street gangs don't have much influence in 2010? Yeah, they all just suddenly died out after the 1990s.

 

Street gangs run a lot the ghettos of Los Angeles and even some middle-class areas too, whereas the Mafia has almost no presence at all. Not sure where you got your facts from.

Here's some I came up with, probably not any better though.

 

Tha Gators - Crips (Inspired by Rockstar's tendacy to give names double meanings e.g. Ballas / Ball-Less)

 

Neighborhood Loons - Bloods (Based on the Blood set "Neighborhood Family Swans")

 

Buddha Boyz - Vietnamese Boyz

 

Mara Loca - MS-13 (Based on a gang in Toronto of the same name)

 

Barrio 69th - 18th Street (Obvious)

 

Los Verdes - Maravilla (Maravilla wear green)

 

Raza Unificada - Surenos (Surenos seem to preach racial unity)

Please when you say Mafia in this case if you are reffering to the Italian-American one then you should say. If that is the case, no you are wrong, the mob don't have as much infuence in LA anymore and same with Vegas. Obviousy they will still have some illegal operation like money laundering and things but they are not that present!

 

Mexican drug cartels on the other hand are the 800lbs gorilla when it comes to major crime and drug trafficking in this region (If that is the right expression ). They are also very, very violent I read that they kidnapped a rival drug lords kid baby or something and cut him in two with a chainsaw. They are brutal and on the news a lot these days.

 

People who want to see lots of the Italian-American mob expect to see some, just not a lot because that's the way it is in real life, they are dominant elsewhere as we have already pointed out before.

 

However there is one small thing that R* could do to bring back a little more of Italian organized crime for all the "fans" out there. From knowledge some of you other might not know of the "Ndrangheta", currently beleived to be Italy's richest mafia due to it's hold on the european cocaine trade. They get a lot of there cocaine not only from Colombians, but from Mexican Narcos as well. So R* might do that instead of the american mob, but not sure.

 

I say forget about Italian Organized crime this once, look further there are so many other groups to look at, who can just be as fun as anything else.

Think that pretty much covers alot. Thoughts?

To be honest a lot of this sounds pretty retarded. "Black Gorrilla Family"? "Peckerwoods"?? REALLY??? It sounds worse than the onlysurvivor fake leak about "families alliance" and "mafioso alliance".

 

What's next? Crazy Mafia Vice King Battalion? I want to see the Italian Mafia and have the story revolve be all about the Italian Mafia not all of this dumb gang banger crap.

actually i lived in southern california and the gangs aren't what they used to be.

 

BLACK GANGS

CRIPS - Have no territory in South Central LA , they lost it to Mexican gangs like TORTILLA FLATS. They are very divided and they spend most of their time fighting eachother . WATCH: HARSH TIMES,

 

Bloods- They are seen a lot but their real true territory is PIRU other than that most people claming to be a Blood have no affiliation at all to the bloods.

Tiny Little Rascals- They are a asian blood gang that feuds with surenos.

 

The Mexican SURENO GANGS- Their territories are divided like the COSTA NOSTRA, These are like the 5 families of the Mexican South Side Gangs except not as organized and operate more like the russian mafia.

 

MS -13- Only holds little Territory in Los Angeles specifically in Central and West L.A because its a sub ordinate of the Surenos. They are not all the hype they were told to be by the media, IN REALITY THEY ARE NOT A SALVADORIAN GANG!!!! THEY HAVE MORE MEXICANS in their gang. Similar to PAVANO.

 

18st- In LA they have a moderate presence but throughout Southern California they are known , They are one of the weakest and slopiest. LOS VAGOS are based on them. SIMILAR TO ANCELOTti.

.

Florencia 13- One of the Strongest of the LA street gangs.They have more members. SIMILAR TO GAMBETTI.

 

White Fence- One of the Strongest as well. Strong Presence in the Drug Game. Similar to MESSINA

 

Avenues- Oldest L.A Gang , LOS AZTECAS are based on them.

 

Flats(primera and cuatro)- They have many sets and are one of the weakest. THE PEGORINOS

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

THE BIKER GANGS- Do have a respected influence in southern cal and are mainly involved in distribution of Amphedimines.

 

MONGOLS- Strongest biker gang throughout Southern California.

 

 

 

White Gangs- They don't have a strong presence in Southern California but in Northern CAL they have the a good presence.

Im not to familar with their role in Organized crime but they play a minor role.

WATCH AMERICAN HISTORY X

 

Pecker Woods-

 

 

 

ITALIAN MAFIA does secretely have a presence in LOS ANGELES believe me.

Most of the FBI or LAPD is made up of Italian Mafia descendents . other than that they only export luxury goods.

 

RUSSIAN MAFIA- DOES HAVE A STRONG PRESENCe iN LOS ANGELES

They are involved in the pron industry and brinign in black market luxury goods.hacking.identity theft.
