demotay Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I read a topic in ign forums that this guy has been banned in gamespot for legit gta v info and he talked about stuff about gta v. In the first note, he said there is a lot of ways to make money and he was right, this topic was made in 2012 and there was no info about money making in 2012.. And he talked about Albert de silva. I recognized tht he was talking about Michael. Hours before I read this topic, I watched a video that Michael may had a fake name because a a thing from him and the FIB. So I'm confused if Michael's real name is Albert de silva or is it his fake name?

Karato2300 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Here's a thought I had. "Michael" was the name of someone the Michael we play as knew, possibly a friend of his and Trevor. The guy died, which prompted the former's retirement from crime. This would also fit with the tattoo on Trevor's arm. He's honoring a lost friend.

He probably picked Michael as his fake name. I was discussing the tattoo a few days ago and stupid me. It never dawned on me that Trevor wouldn't get "Michael" as a tattoo if he was in witness protection and his name wasn't really Michael. Till now, that is.

wwinterj Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Also,I'm curious, what does De mean in the name albert de silva? The de in french means "from".and in the olden days in Europe people were named either from their paternal family ancestor-(father)... or the town...for example ...Joan of Arc was Jean d'Arc( from the town of Arc)... When the de is separate from the name it connotes nobility. If it is close to the name it is not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt06 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 A lot of the info that the "ex-Rockstar employee" had blabbed about that one time was actually accurate since what he/she said was later corroborated by official R* info releases, so Albert de Silva just may be his real name.

jackass2009 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I think his real name is Michael. Don't know if they changed his last name, which is very possible, but Trevor got that tattoo before GTA V started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cylan Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Off topic, but a lot of that information, at least about the plot, is complete bs. And guys, imagine if Michael's real name...turned out to be Michael! I know he's in witness protection, but imagine if they let him keep his old name despite the risks.

Karato2300 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 It is possible he kept his given name and only changed the family name. If I recall correctly, it's implied that Harry Mason in Silent Hill 3 only changed the surname to Morrison, at least going from the fact that that was Heather's name (as well as her actresses real name).

Plainview Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Anyway, after he leaves prison, he finds out that Charlie had raped his girlfriend and abused his son. Albert then goes on a personal mission to find Charlie and Kill him. In the first chapter of the game, Albert's girlfriend leaves him because she wants Albert to "let the whole Charlie thing go". Albert refuses and his girlfriend (Gloria) and his son (Kevin) leave Los Santos thinking that Albert has just returned to his old ways and will end up dead in a ditch somewhere. Albert then contacts Jeffrey, a friend who had some contacts of his own and asked him if he could help Albert track down Charlie and put an end to everything.

IDredMan Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Seriously, since we're all just crapping out non-backed up theories here, here's what I think. I think Michael IS his real name, he just doesn't use his legal (Witness protection program) name. Seriously, why would a criminal, a thief and a murderer use a fake name? He's not hiding from anyone, he doesn't need to. And Trevor, a very old friend of his also refers to him as Michael. When thinking about it, getting referred to as Michael would actually be a very smart idea, since it's not his legal name, it'll narrow down the evidence. But that's probably not the case. I'd bet you any amount of money NONE OF US got it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richayy Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 i really believe its tommy vercetti. out of all the possibilities it makes the most since for a twist. he makes a deal sending sonny to prison and winds up in los santos and starts a family under the name michael. the timeline fits his age and holy sh*t they sound the same!!! i know we wont know anytihng for sure but im gonna just go ahead and say what im expecting.

Dick Justice Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I say that Michael is his real name. We know a few things about his past: He was a professional bank robber before he made a sweetheart deal with the FIB thanks to powerful friends. In the two missions covered in previews he stole bonds from an armoured car for the FIB, and extracted an IAA prisoner for the FIB... He's doing favours for them as a part of the deal. This implies he's not in the Witness Protection Program for being a snitch, in other words there is no need for him to change his name. Anyway, the Albert de Silva stuff came from the Rush casting call. In the same call sheet: Trevor was Simon, Jimmy was Kevin, Ron was Jerry and Simeon was Harut... They used fake names for every single character, not just Michael. Edit ^No way it's Tommy. In 2013, Tommy Vercetti would be 62. That twist makes no sense.
