Rockstar needs to focus on Los Santos and it's surroundings, including another country would take back from that. Mexico would need as much map area as Red Dead Redemption (you can't have Mexico be the size of Bohan), so already you've lost a good portion of the total map. On top of that, you have the California wilderness and other possible enviroments that have yet to be revealed. Mexico is too big of a location, physically and just as a name. GTAV is going to have an American theme and an American vibe. Mexico would just take back from that.

 

I agree with this, I'd prefer it to be focused on California. Especially since they kinda did it with RDR.

As long as it is not too big. In RDR Mexico was bigger that America. Maybe a small section of Tijuana and some surrounding desert.

Entering Mexico to the dulcet tones of Jose Gonzalez in RDR was fairly epic. I'm not sure how they'd top that, but I'd like to see them try. If Mexico is in V, that would be the third R* game in a row to feature a South American country.

 

Even if Mexico isn't in, you can be sure there will be a large Latino presence in every area of the game, from the neighbourhoods, to the npc's, story characters & language. Probably not as much as if it had been set in Vice City, apparently half the population there speaks Spanish.

I like this idea. But I don't think we'll actually see Mexico itself; but I think it will play a big part in the story line regardless--it has to.

 

And about the trailer revealing more of the map:

Is anyone else beginning to assume that the next trailer will land on 2nd November (or whenever it would be exactly one year after the first ...)?

However, I do think the Mexican culture, music, and people will make it's way into the game. A lot of the locations surrounding Los Angeles are flooded with great Latin architecture, such as Santa Barbara and San Pedro. Also, Mexican immigration (illegal) is obviously a big topic in Los Angeles at the moment. It has created a lot of controversy, tension, and even riots all across the state. Even people who are legal citizens are being abused and discriminated against. There is no doubt in my mind it will be apart of V's story.

I meant only a small part of the Mexican border... im pretty sure there will be a desert in the game so why not make it more interesting and make it a mexican area with small towns?

Really loving the idea, but as someone posted earlier I think it should just be a small portion of mexico. Like try to smuggle across the border after you went to visit your buddy Juan Carlos for some goods. biggrin.gif

SoCal is practically Mexico anyways.

It would be cool to have a little bit of Mexico or a Mexican city in gta 5, but you do know that California was once apart of Mexico. I am still Hoping 4 a 2012 release. Who's with me!

With San Diego and Tijuana, hell yeah. Would be f*cking great.

 

R* even has a location in San Diego. Perhaps we might see Dan Houser at one of the street corners dealing drugs?

what you think?

I think some people expect to much.

Very strong possibility we won't get more than one city nevermind states. Next you'll be saying different countries.

It's no less plausible than any other theory for additional cities. Have you seen a SoCal map? The Mexican-USA border is very close to LA. Closer than SF and LV.

 

I predict a Tijuana will be in the game.

It would be a good idea since the Mexican drug cartels will probably have some role in the game. How could they not in modern day California? It would make for some good missions sneaking stuff across the border.

This topic IS about a different country. Mexico is not a state.
