None of them beat Vercetti... best GTA protag of all time.

 

(Tommy Vercetti picture)

 

I 100 % agree with this :^::^::^:

 

My most favorite GTA protagonist EVER !!

He will always be the best! Favorite protagonist of all time! :^:

Best GTA protag - Vercetti: I think he is a douche, bur you can't deny he is the best

 

Best story - Niko: Compared to other GTAs, IV has the best storyline

 

Who would win in a fight? - Trevor: he is the strongest GTA protag to date. Niko, Tommy and Claude would be the only ones to stand a good fight against him, but in the end they would all perish under his boot. And no, ending A doesn't count. He was out of character as f*ck.

So was Johnny in V. So no that's how Trevor is according to R*.

 

Yep, but comparing V's Johnny to the other protagonists would be unfair. Of course I would pick IV's Johnny to do a proper comparision. I still think Trevor would win.

Nope, that wouldn't work with IV's Johnny. He is better than that.

 

And just because he killed meth Johnny that way doesn't mean that he is only capable of doing that. Trevor is clearly stronger, he is merciless (except with certain people), he can get really angry and block any kind of pain.

He is not even my favorite protag, but I think he pretty much owns any of them.

With IV, there's 3 protags to, just the other two are under the giuse of DLC, so it would only be fair to compare 3 Vs 3

Michael V Niko = Niko (the way R* built him up, I think no protag can beat him)

Johnny V Trevor= Johnny (w/o the Meth), no question would whoop Trevors ass.

Luis V Franklin = Franklin, they both are minorities trying to escape the hood that are loyal to a fault, but @ least Franklin wasn't an asshole like Luis was.

Winner = IV,

Niko would execute Franklin and Micheal like he did Vlad BUT Trevor would sneak up on him and smash him round the head with a bottle and give him the Johnny k Treatment!

 

 

trevor hugging johnny and cheaply killing him off-guard makes him total badass, ermagurd.

 

no, that scene did not make trevor a badass. it only made johnny a pussy.

 

I wish he had killed Johnny's tart girlfriend instead... Ashley was so annoying in IV, and Johnny was stupid for staying with her...

Just wait for the North Yankton DLC detailing the history between Michael and Trevor. Franklin's past doesn't matter (inb4 I'm a racist) because he would have only been in junior high or high school at the time.

 

I do agree to an extent that there's a lack of backstory for the characters but that's the price Rockstar has to pay if they want 3 protagonists. With one protagonist like Niko, Rockstar had a lot more time to sit there and think about what his story would be and they didn't have to spread out there ideas across 3 different characters. But nevertheless, I found the stories of Michael and Trevor (I really don't care about gang/ghetto things) to be great.

 

So, overall, I like the depth of Niko's story, but I like how Michael's and Trevor's story are intertwined. I do not have a personal favourite.

 

EDIT: D'oh! I just realized I completely brushed over the other GTA 4 era protagonists, being Jonny and Luis. But anyway, their stories weren't as intertwined as GTA 5s story. There was around 5 missions where you see 2 or more of the characters, but they rarely seemed to work together. If you want to compare GTA 5's story of 3 characters and GTA 4's story of 3 characters, I would say GTA 5 wins hands down, no question at all. But hey, that is just my opinion.

During the war... we did some bad things and bad things happened to us. War is where the young and stupid are tricked by the old and bitter into killing each other. I was very young, and very angry. Maybe that is no excuse... Roman? Roman! Are you sleeping, you fat f*ck? Come on!

Niko: Life is complicated. I... I never thought I'd live like this.

 

Ilyena: No?

 

Niko: When the war came, I did bad things. And after the war, I thought nothing of doing bad things. I killed people, smuggled people, sold people.

 

Ilyena: And you don't worry about your soul?

 

Niko: After you walk into a village, and you see fifty children, all sitting neatly in a row against the church wall, each with their throats cut and their hands chopped off, you realize that the creature that could do this doesn't have a soul

Yes... He starred in a movie where cars smashed into each other, exploded, flew through fire, smashed a plane into an impossibly long runway. But he died because Roger Rodars' car lit on fire for hitting a pole... :(

Well said, if It was Niko V Trevor, Niko, he would simply squeeze the living sh*t out of him with Ease. I liked Trevor, but Niko is more psychopathic. Yes Niko isn't a huge psycho and Trevor did a lot more psycho sh*t, but Trevor is just mentally unstable and can easy be broken down and angered. He usually gets angry if some harmless dudes ask if he's Canadian and Niko can only be angered if they f*ck with is friends and family. And when Niko is angry, he's more f*cked up than Trevor.

"When I was in the army... we were going on a mission... to ambush a squad who had killed a lot of innocent people. They were our enemies... but we never did it. There were fifteen of us. All boys from the village. But one of us betrayed the group. It was a setup... for money! Twelve people died, three escaped. I know the traitor was not me... So for ten years I've been searching for the other two. One of them lives here."

Niko. I like Michael the most in the big three, but even he just feels like a boring middle age guy who likes to walk away from his troubles. Franklin still seems a bit dull and unexciting. Trevor... not my kind of guy at all.

I really liked Michael's character out of all 3 (in GTA V), and feel he is the best one when comparing Trevor, Michael and Franklin. Sadly I feel his best scene is at the ending....*SPOILER* SPOILER*** where you have to make a choice and you choose Michael *** SPOILER

But yeah, you have to admit Michael was pretty awesome in GTA V (that's debatable since everyone has their own opinion).

 

He was just so interesting. He was the first protagonist to actually have an actual family. He has children who you actually get to speak to and know, he has a wife, hell he even has a beautiful house. A retired bankrobber who actually made it and now looking for something new in life. There was so much potential in this, and like said above there was only one time I actually saw his character really shine and show his real emotions (instead of his 'fake want to be hollywood emotions', which is a shame...)

 

The 3 character switch kind of ruined the experience for people that really wanted a STORY though. Because yeah it was awesome, you get to play as 3 people. But that just meant there was less time actually put into the characters. I wanted to know so much more about Trevor. He was literally a maniac, I wanted to know so much about his past, but there was never time because the game moves so fast that you have to focus on all 3 characters. Don't get me wrong it's not a complain that game was awesome (a 8.9 / 10 from me), but I wish that Rockstar would have extended the game longer from the standard 69 missions. This way it feels like you're actually playing through 3 different stories, instead of 1 big rushed one.

 

 

Anyway. Niko all the way. :)
