poncratias Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Well, a friend of mine who knows a friend of mine has told me that the newest rumor that he got told is that GTA V will feature Iphones! Now I wonder if there will be other smartphones too? And how should this battle of the smartphones work out? Maybe we will be able to download apps for our phones!!!! Imagine the modding community would be able to do flash apps or something that we can use on our smartphones in GTA! And one more question: How would they parody Apple? Do you think rockstar is generally pro apple or against it? (speaking of sympathy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowfox_ Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 It would be pretty awesome to use an iPhone and also for there to be an option to listen to music while walking down the street Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatGig Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Your source seems legit, man. As for Rockstar taking the piss out of Apple, I think they'll go for ridiculing the stereotypical Apple customer. If not, then they won't do anything. Calling it Pine-Apple or some rubbish pun like that would be too easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urbanfire Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Perhaps they will expand on this in GTA V Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Los Santos Pedestrian Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Your source seems legit, man. I think his cousin works at Rockstar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexGTAGamer Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Rockstar have already parodied Apple, in IV and VCS they are known as "Fruit". And here is the IFruit/IPhone: EDIT: Beaten to it by urbanfire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALMOST610 Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 And R* would most likely have to pay Apple to use there brand & Products in the Game, as Apple is so Greedy & Cheeky enough to ask for Money to get Advertising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death2Drugs Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Apple is already parodied as Fruit. I'd like to see a parody of the iPod or iPhone that you could buy. Perhaps there could be a few useless apps such as time, calendar, music, etc. Maybe you can download apps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rauland Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 i would rather they work on the game than pointless in game phone features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ll rdny ll Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 i would rather they work on the game than pointless in game phone features. this, I can't find a use for half the sh*t on my real smartphone. Why would I need one ingame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebby Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 (edited) Badger has to be Android. I swear to god that I've seen a sh*t load of Badger smartphone advertisement's in IV. Edit: Never mind, that's just the provider. Still is a possibilty of it being the main provider for the smartphone's, given we can choose what kind we want now.

kietotheworld Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 There will probably just be a parody brand, if there's any branding at all that relates to a real world one. There certainly won't be apps, and the "modding community" certainly won't waste their time making new ones to go on the phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildstyle91 Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Hardly the most exciting news, although I doubt your source is reliable. So R* will most likely have a play with a smartphone parody, there are another 1000 features I am more interested in when it comes to GTA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gege Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 No Storage Capacity? lol even the first iPhone had a minimum of 8GB storage. I think that's pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kietotheworld Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 No Storage Capacity? lol even the first iPhone had a minimum of 8GB storage. I think that's pretty cool. It's emphasising the prevalence of style over substance when it comes to iPhones, it's not really relevant today when they're the dogs bollocks, but back when they and GTA IV were first released they were pretty awful when it came to functionality. Very limited storage capacity compared to other phones on the market which chiefly used memory cards.

blowtorchrepair Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 WHAT IF, R* actually created a REAL APP for V for ios and android based smart phones that would allow the player to interact with the game in some manner if the player owns have such a phone?

Wow, this is a cool idea. They could make an app that makes your phone menu look like the ingame phone, so you can navigate with it and make calls/etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
