What proof is there of CJ being alive post 1992 other than easter eggs?

Now what if I told you... there's this?

As you can see, despite this album being released in 1990, it was digitally remastered which couldn't have happened without CJ's management. This proves CJ is indeed still alive, in one way or another. Your theory is already dead, pal.

I get you’re trying to prove my theory wrong and that’s fine because it encourages a good discussion but could you please keep the witty comments to yourself while presenting an argument that can be countered with some common sense and still doesn’t prove that CJ was alive post 1992

Okay, now I'm seriously tired. Madd Dogg would've probably become a drunkard again if CJ had died and nobody would've possibly wanted to manage him. I just can't digest your theory and I still believe that Toni indeed did kill a made man. And by the way, just how can you say the word "made man" on the back cover was written by an intern? Wouldn't it be those production manager guys who had wrote that? And besides, how can one consider CJ's death to be canon when the writers had the production manager guys to write a bit of the canon story on the back cover?

Who's to say that he didn't? The fake site for rappers that Rockstar put out themselves said that Madd Dogg's "last good album" was releasted in 1993, so maybe all the subsequent ones subpar because Madd Dogg was burnt out over CJ's death? And even then, if CJ helps Madd Dogg turn his career around, who wouldn't want to manage a now successful rapper?

Whoever it was written by, they obviously weren't in too attached with the main writers, especially if the first mission only has Sal refer to it as the incredibly vague "you did that good thing for us". I feel like if they were working in tandem, Sal would've elaborated on it some more.

No he didn't , there's no proof. He killed a made man in a rival gang. Made man are term used in italian mafia. But good theory though. But nah.

Did Huang Lee killed Niko Bellic, who killed Trevor, who killed Johnny K, just so he can get revenge for the Triad who Johnny shot and plummetted off the rooftop in The Lost and the Damned Mission "This sh*t's cursed"? Makes sense to me!

I wonder if it was planned have Toni having killed CJ, but they left it out at the last moment or so to avoid possible backlash seeing how popular San Andreas was at the time?

 

I mean, we have seen how upset some people got when Johnny K got killed off. Imagine the outrage if they had just said "OH and Toni killed CJ off screen just because" at the beginning of the game.

 

Or, I dunno. Maybe Tonis blew up Grove Street like he blew up Fort Staunton?

Let's not pretend it would have anything to do with Salvatore... 

 

Toni's mom: I bet you can't even kill Carl Johnson!

 

Toni: Oh, I'm going to prove you wrong!

@universetwisters: The official LCS website designed by R* also says that Toni killed a made man, which is quite an attention to the game's lore there, so it's official now: It was indeed a rival mafia organization's made man who was killed by Toni. Now don't bother providing answers to questions which were never asked to you, your theory is baseless and has been busted already.

Obligatory “it’s still incredibly vague so it could’ve been anybody in the right context” answer

 

Also that's the same text literally yanked from the back cover of the original game. Again, literally no mention of it whatsoever in the game itself.  Again, no need to act like a smartass thinking filler for a website redesign to promote the mobile release is ThEoRy BuStEd

Well, if you visit the original Flash website of LCS back from 2005, which is on the same site, there's one there too and that one is a pure, genuine source. You can't say that was an intern's job, redesign for mobile release or whatever. It most likely showed up there before the covers were printed. As for the made man himself, he wasn't mentioned because he wasn't relevant to the story. He was long forgotten. And he can never be CJ because he may be a big-time gangsta and all, but he's not in a mafia organization of Italian descendants. Also, do you think R* would be crazy enough to first create a protagonist and then have him killed in their next game?

 

Besides, you just love to think that CJ got whacked by Toni, don't you?

Then the covers were yanked from the website. It doesn't matter where it came from, what matters is that it's incredibly vague and could've been anyone.

Have you literally ignored my previous arguments that people could have it "made" outside of a mafia context

While do bear in mind this is just a fan theory, I don't see why not

I don't have a reason to believe that he wouldn't have been whacked by Toni or any other Leone family associate. He robbed Caligula's, made Sal a laughing stock, and Sal swore his revenge.

Salvatore would never send his favorite guy around after some regular busta material. It ain't worth it at all! It was probably Mickey Hamfists who killed CJ, or the goon who pays Maria for the sandwich during the beginning of "Freefall", or the goon who says "Hey, boss, there's somebody here to see you." to Ken during the end of "Don Peyote", or the goon from III's artwork, or the goon who is seen guarding Salvatore's mansion during some of the cutscenes of Salvatore's missions in III. In fact, probably all of the aforementioned goons went together to kill CJ after the end of SA's story. But I still believe Toni killed a made man.

Let's not forget this busta was behind the robbery of the casino he controlled and had lots of protection.

I said that CJ was killed by Mickey, while a Forelii/Sindacco made man was killed by Toni. Simple. Your theory is acceptable to some length but it goes straight downhill from the "Toni flees Liberty City because of CJ's allies in San Andreas" and "CJ had it made" parts.

I'm p sure a guy who's second in command to a large gang, co-owns a casino, runs a garage and airstrip and several other properties, and is a successful rapper's manager, and is incredibly wealthy has it made in life.

I get what you mean there, but I'm sure that made man in GTA, especially while referring to a made man being killed by a certain character, specifically means a "mob Made Man", not basically any guy who made it in life. Similar to "OG", which doesn't refer to every tough gangster in the criminal underworld as far as I know, but only high-ranking members of certain street gangs.

I'd be more inclined to believe that if they actually went into more detail about who Toni killed. If it's possible that Toni killed CJ within the right context, why couldn't he have killed CJ?

I'm neither denying or supporting the theory of CJ being murdered by Toni, but I really doubt that he was the meant guy as far as the "made man" argument goes.

 

To say the least, though, I don't expect CJ to survive after ripping the mob off. It wasn't confirmed whether he's alive or not, but it really makes sense that he isn't.

Becoming a Made man is like making Partner at a big law firm, the big 4 accounting firms, or investment banks.
