8-Ball Return?

[5000 Staples]

Who wants to see the return of 8-ball !?

 

This was one of the best things in GTA3/SA for me - just might be a little controversial now being it was used to fit a car bomb?

 

[freakinggonerihatethis]

They should include this.

[Dope_0110]

I was going to growl on yet another post wanting a different era character back.. but his shop.. why not. Don't mind the name, they can rename it, I just want a bomb and with both options.

1. To set up the bomb so when someone else drives it, it explodes (but to have it not explode if I decide to enter the car again, it would make sense as I'd know about the bomb and how to disarm it since I armed it)

2. To have a remote, so even if I armed it or whatever, I just want to make it bang.. then I can make it bang

No chance of 8-Ball's character returning... His voice actor died.

[Anonymity]

That would be an awesome idea! I had a little too much fun back in the day with this place, and it would fit Trevor's personality to a T.

This is all I'm ever going to post in topics like this:

 

Rockstar says:

El Burro is referenced as he was also referenced in GTA 1, so it felt appropriate that he should cross “universes” – the “universes” are the worlds interpreted at different definitions, 2d, 3d and high definition, so we felt brands and radio / back ground characters would exist in both, but 3 dimensional characters would not. This is the logic (as far as it could be considered logical) behind it – so no, we don’t believe any GTA3 characters could exist in the GTA4 universe.

He did that's too bad. Can't see the place returning too they might just add the feature to the pay & spray.

He means the bomb shop not the character....people need to calm down around here.

People really should read the original potato OP before they comment. Not doing that is becoming a problem here.

You didn't read the OP, did you?

Yes, yes I did. Even if it's just the brand or garage, it's named after a III era character & therefore can't return. Just like Love Media can't. Alright, maybe 8-Ball is a more general name, so I'm not entirely sure the rule applies here. I apologize for jumping the gun.

[Grove Street Balla]

I agree, I want a bomb shop so I can put bomb in car and blow up it at Downtown Los Santos or Vinewood.

So why did [email protected] return? Why did Cluckin' Bell, Burger Shot, Didlier Sachs, and Grotti return?

Because none of those businesses or brands are named after III era characters.

[aaronimpact]

Didn't Packie have car bombs?

[bowling...?]

I hope something like this is back. I don't like how I lose the ability to place a bomb under a car because I stop hanging out with Packie.

[bluAstrid]

I thought the OP meant 8-ball as in pool... But yeah, bombs are fun too!

Yeah and Love Fist and the Epsilon Program.

[richard1997jones]

I'd like to see it returned but I can understand the controversial side.

[5000 Staples]

Jesus this thread is full of fail lol.

 

This topic has nothing to do with the character returning.. more of the 'store' returning. which it can... maybe under a different name, who cares.

 

A car bomb shop should be in GTA5.

Yeah and Love Fist and the Epsilon Program.

Love Fist won't appear in the game, they're just referenced on a vintage t-shirt in some artwork. Epsilon is another organization that isn't named after a character modelled in the III era. There's no Mr. Epsilon, it's Cris Formage & he didn't appear in person in any III era game (you only heard his voice).

 

Any more?

You're kinda boring now, none care.

 

talk about bomb shop nothing more.

[dxbrandon]

Lol

 

OnTopic: I would love for 8-Ball to return, bombs are fun.

Sorry if it's boring, but no one is forcing you to read my posts.

 

Then the OP should've just created a topic about bomb shops & not '8-ball's bomb shop'.

[bluetops]

I think detonate-able bombs are fine. If you played GTA IV, you can call Packie for a bomb pickup that you can place on cars. Then you'll just call Packie again to detonate it.

[ChocoFrosty]

Yeah, I'd say sticky-bombs are an acceptable compromise.

[IDredMan]

No chance of 8-Ball's character returning... His voice actor died.

My throat is f*cked up, so you gonna talk brotha.

I am the OP.... I wanted to make a topic about 8-balls bomb shop because I'm allowed. Now stick to topic and stop crying.

 

 

In GTA4 gay tony - sticky bombs would explode on there own accord(after 5 mins i think) which was annoying. then you would automatically gain 2 stars ?
