It wouldnt suprise me if Rockstar took out C4 explosives.

 

Apparently these are white dudes in their 20s from what people are saying. Wouldnt suprise me if the FBI raids their house and they find video games.

 

Theeeeeen, the attack on video games begins again. You heard it here first.

Its a speculative, but legitimate question to ask.

There are so many terrorist attacks in the Middle East and around the world every day but when there's one in the US,everybody goes mad and starts thinking about weird theories.

 

Stop it.

I remember back in 2001 the attacks on the World Trade Center affected GTA III.

Apparently the game included a spin off of the WTC and before the release Rockstar took them out.

 

Taking out C4 though? I doubt it.

I know that the Boston bombings killed people and caused a lot of mayhem but I think times have changed and people know what to expect when it comes to a Grand Theft Auto game, lots of fire power including and most notably, explosives.

Thread number 28288288 about this topic...

 

Yea, let terrorists win by giving them what they want... ( in a certain way)

Why would they remove C4? Don't get the logic.

And the bombings will have no effect on V.

 

Go and rob central bank of L.A. if You want to have an effect on V.

Thats dumb.

 

R* has never backed down due to this kind of thing before, they wont this time. They know their limits, and they've honestly never even tried to cross that line.

Unless there is a mission where you have to plant some bombs at the finish line of a marathon in the game, no it won't.

Anyway, before some MOD kid locked my thread, this crap thread was started BEFORE it was revealed that the bombers are of Russian decent.

 

Like I said, if a copy of GTA IV is found at home(s) of these two, then I will guarantee that some politician will make a big deal out of that. This topic may be over the heads of the mostly junior high school age crowd that frequents this site.

 

But, if a bag from McDonalds is also found next to the GTA IV disc, then we could have a really complicated plot here...

DAFUQ you talking about? GTA V is based in LA NOT BOSTON. So why the heck would it affect GTA V?

Just heard that in the police chase they were dropping granades out of the window.

 

Sounding more and more like GTA every minute.

 

I'm sure Rockstar have a contingency plan for an eventuality such as this.

 

If GTA V hadn't been delayed, this incident may well have delayed it.

 

It would be a shame though if Rockstar decided to alter the game that will be around for many many years, on the back of an incident that will be largely forgotten about in a few months.

No, it is not. The script for V was written a long time ago, maybe some improvements some time later, but do you really think they are adding something to their story a few months before the release?

You ARE kidding us.

Even though real life seems to have turned into GTA: Boston, it's not going to delay the game. GTAV has a totally different setting and storyline and characters. Unless society is saying no to every fictional depiction of bad guys fighting cops ever, GTA has nothing to do with this.

Why are some of you saying "How would the Boston bombings affect V?" It's obvious if you read the OP. anyway, I think that your post is a valid one, OP icon14.gif seems likely considering there's already a mass horde of people who want GTA gone anyway. Lets hope not, though...

Judge 'Dan and Sam Houser, we have reason to with hold the sale of GTA V due to the Boston bombings. How do you plead?'

Housers 'Not guilty your honor, based on 3 main reasons. 1. We wrote the script 5 years ago. 2. The story is fictional. 3. The game isn't set in Boston, your honor.'

Judge 'Sounds good enough to me. Case Dismissed.'

 

That's how it would go down in front of the jury.

Same discussion again. Last time was when Sandy Hook School shooting take place and some people thought that it could have influence over V.

No your delirious if you think it will affect V in any way.

 

But.. i would say the Boston Bombings will be mentioned in V either by Radio/T.V or People In Game Talking About It.

GTA V, in terms of the media spoof(radio, TV etc) and everything else's already written and it won't change whatever happens.

 

Neither will it have a impact as 9/11... this is L.A. , not Boston which isn't even in California.

Think there would be a much worse problem on the government's hands if the game did get banned. 30 million angry rioting people. People would go berserk especially this close to release with just 5 months away. A lot of us having waited since October 2011 and many others much earlier than that.
