BigJacob Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Who would you rather be? A well prepared smart criminal like the ones in the movie 'Heat', or a gangbanger like the ones in the series 'the Wire'? Obviously the gangsters from Heat, but thats because they f*cking own this sh*t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nun0567 Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 FFS Man, it's over. If you want it go play San Andreas. GTA V's theme will be based in money and in today's California. In my opinion it would even ruin the game, after GTA IV another gangster theme would make any sense at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeJoeMcTwist Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Because "gangsta homies" don't fly jets. And Italian mobster do and are pros how? In fact from the 3 pics that OP posted last one is the most professional. That's why it's best that protagonist have military background, because mercenaries are more skilled in taking life than gangstas and those suit mobsters that are praised on this forum soo much. I even heard stories that people who are in marines are actually gang members and are using military tactics which they learned in their criminal careers and to train younger gang members, so from all 3 stereotypical suit mobster are the less skilled, there you have it. well that's just hear say so it doesn't prove anything. Suit mobsters have become cops, and even Lawyers, penetrating every facet of the infrastructure. That's why they can survive downtown, wear suits and be in public, have manners and blend in. gangsta homies live in ghettos secluded from the rest of society dealing crack, and doing other low level crimes. I doubt they would be able to fly a jet because you need to have a higher education to be a military officer/pilot let alone afford one on a crack dealer's salary. edit: never said I think the protag should be mafia - just don't want another CJ "yo" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I believe a few mafia families helped the US during WWII, which would mean some of them probably flew aircraft, drove tanks, etc. I'm not too keen on the details, though, so I might be wrong on whether or not they flew. On topic: I'm sick of both, really. "Gangsta"s are just plain laughable and mobsters have been overused in the GTA franchise. Hopefully they bring something new to the table. Though I still would like to see both in the game, just not as a central part of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackNoise Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 It's too hard to make it realistic in a game, and when it's real, it's not fun anyways. I've lost family to gang sh*t and two of my friends are in prison for 1st degree, because they wanted to prove their gang was legit. There's a reason why there's a bunch of good mob movies, but not too many good movies about bangin. It's too hard to glorify it, make it entertaining, and keep it from looking stupid like Saints Row. I want the street aspect like Menace to Society or Paid in Full, but gang life in current times is extra stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FranticFatality Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Whats wrong with being this? Annoying, hood rats you barely sympathize or care for. Too poor as well, were more gangsta in the 90s and it's better to start fresh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aaronimpact Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 I wouldn't mind yound hoodlums. But I don't want to see the mafia in V unless they do something interesting with the missions. Recently when I was replaying GTA IV I was bored with the missions for that old mafia guy on the 3rd island. Mostly because you had to drive him to the far end of the island.

Mister Pink Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 I also heard on the radio the explanation of why gangsta homies wear their pants down to their ankles. Where it got started, and this was from an expert on the topic. It originated in prisons. When a gay inmate was ready to take it in the ass, he would wear his pants low to signal other inmates. Think about that one next time one of you wants to show your underwear to the world. I thought it was because when you got released from prison they'd take your belt off you before you enter and you might not get it back. Hence why Run DMC fashioned Adidas without laces and people wore baggy trousers hanging down. ＲＵＢＢΣＲ░Ｊ♢ＨＮＮＹ （スオッ） Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johan Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Because it's been there done that if you know what I mean, I doubt they'll make it again for the same city, otherwise it'll be a GTA SA remake which I doubt it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M0B5TA Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Yea its played out. GTA V should be about a 55 year old guy that does nothing illegal and he goes to work every day from 9am to 5pm and he buys his houses and cars with money. Thats new right?

Wearing sneakers regulary originated from hip hop culture, a lot of people don't know that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trevor's Mother Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 i dont like the rapper-gangsta style that was used on San Andreas. But a italian mob style like the goodfellas movie would be pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeliWolf420 Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 i dont like the rapper-gangsta style that was used on San Andreas. But a italian mob style like the goodfellas movie would be pretty cool. Grand Theft Auto III, Vice City and Liberty City Stories. I'd rather have a newer theme for the protagonist, but a redone gangbanging theme would be cool again. But is "gangsta" even relevant anymore, I mean "gangsta" is the epitome of mainstream now. If it has to be a gangsta theme I'd like to see a Latino gang member rather than just redoing the Compton theme again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gtaplayaminigun Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Like others have said, gangsta would feel like an SA remake. But unlike some, I'd choose that over a mobster story on any given day as it's the most over used theme in both gta and movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MyDog Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Offtopic but what is the difference? If someone is part of a gang, he is a gangster. "Gangsta" is just a word spoken in ebonics accent. Anyway, I certainly want a new parody of South Central street gangs in GTA V but not as a main theme. It could be like in GTA IV, where Niko does jobs for people such as Elizabeta and Playboy X.
