Motto: "Stay anywhere."
Website: www.quicommodation.com
Headquarters: San Fierro, San Andreas.
Description: You need to drive up to Broker for a drug deal but have to stay overnight? Business conference in Venturas but you can't afford a hotel? Never fear, Quicommodation has you covered! Quicommodation is a peer-to-peer homestay network that allows cheap tourists and criminals to stay in someone's apartment or home for a few days - whether they want to rent the place out while they're on their own holiday, or you have to stay in their closet. Currently starting to overtake the hotel market, creating an open air for privatization in the industry and jump starting gentrification in urban areas, but don't worry, you're only hastening the inevitable.

Motto: "The Superior Brand."
Website: www.superiorlibertycity.com
Headquarters: Liberty City, Liberty.
Description: Originally a skater brand started in downtown Algonquin, Superior has shifted it's hands into every corner of the youth fashion market and became a staple of streetwear culture. Superior creates simplistic hats, clothing and other items donning the iconic blue logo and commonly collaborates with punk and hip hop musicians. Don't ever call it a streetwear brand, though. It's lifestyle.

Whatever that is.

 

Note: The inspiration for Superior is now in GTA V as Bigness.

Portsmouth
Based on: Plymouth.
Founded: 1923.
Defunct: early 2000s.
Motto: "When Schyster doesn't scream "America" loud enough."

Website: None.
Headquarters: Unknown.
Description: Portsmouth was a car manufacturer introduced in Liberty City in 1923. It was Schyster's division responsible for building low-end vehicles in order to compete with Vapid and Declasse. During the 1940s & 1950s, Portsmouth vehicles were the second-most popular ones in the United States. The 1960s and early 1970s were the greatest times for Porstmouth. Back then, many iconic cars were made. After the early 1970s, Portsmouth vehicles were just rebaged Maibatsus and Schysters, so there's nothing more interesting about the make.

The service has exploded because of this idea and taken over the private transport industry, prompting competitors like Ryde to jump in and try to emulate their huge success. Is it destroying the cab business and putting people out of jobs? Yes. Is it illegal? Most likely. Is it convenient? Sorta!

Not that the bar was that high to begin with.

Based on: Hoonigan Industries

Founded: 2012

Defunct: No

Headquarters: San Fierro, San Andreas

Website: www.tooligan.com

Motto: "Edgy clothing for wannabe racecar drivers."

Description: Founded in 2012 by racecar driver Tim Kross, this clothing brand/racing team has become a staple in modern car culture. Why you ask? Mostly because people (specifically teenagers) like to put their stickers on their parents' cars while chugging down 4 cans of Junk energy drink at once, and then crash into a pole because their cars aren't powerful enough to do a proper skid. They're also known for being the main sponsor of Kross' over-the-top, staged, and definitely not real gymkhana videos, in which he drifts around a barrel for 4 hours straight.

In-game usability: Clothing items as well as car stickers and liveries are available to use from their respective stores.

Motto: "Usually Fresh Food - Pronto!"
Website: www.yumyum.com
Headquarters: Indianola, San Andreas
Description: Originally founded as a mini-mart chain in 1958, the then-named Yum Yum Market made a leap into the fresh format imported groceries business after the founder, Lionel 'Leo' Yanarella, realized he couldn't get any of those nice cold cuts he would buy on his weekend trips to the Caribbean. Thus, after reopening his stores as 'supermarkets', Leo capitalized on the inherent human need to buy cheap food wrapped in environment-damaging plastics at tiki-themed grocery stores, usually with the prices written on cute little chalkboards.

Description: When you think Aquaberry, what do you think of first? The iconic blue diamond pattern adorned on countless scarfs and sweater vests around the globe? The fact that Brockham's clothes are usually a lot less tacky? Or do you think 'why is a posh English tailor collaborating with f*cking skate brands?' Truthfully, none of these are correct. Apparently, the marketing team just wants you to think of teenagers in pale makeup wearing weird coats.

Makarva
Based on: Commodore International.
Founded: 1954.
Defunct: Went bankrupt in 1994.
Motto: "We bring the best affordable home computers and electronics to you."
Website: None.
Headquarters: Unknown.
Description: Originally founded in Canada in 1954, the Makarva International company provided various electronics across North America. Most notably, they produced programmable calculators, which then sprung into the computing market. In the late 70's, Makarva produced the VERMIN (Visual Electronic Recieval Message Intergrated Novelty), the first full-featured computer, and formed the basis for their entire 8-bit product line of the 1980's, including the CROC-50 and the Makarva 47, the latter of which is regarded as one of the best selling computers in the world, and it had a huge market in the UK like in it's native Canada and North America, supporting games on cartridges, floppy disks and casette tapes (which were common in the UK, and are rarer to find in America). Outside of home computers, Makarva also briefly had a market by developing tape decks with graphic equalizers that were sold in Fast-Forward In Vehicle Audio electronic stores. By 1986, the graphic equalizers became obsolete as Fast-Forward In Vehicle Audio closed around the US. Around that same time, Makarva also introduced the Chica personal computers, which were 16-bit or 32-bit instead of 8-bit like the previous home computers. The Chica computers were more popular in Europe than in America and enjoyed a huge success for nearly a decade when, unfortunately, the Makarva company was filed for bankruptcy in 1994. And although the company is long gone, their home computer legacy lives on.

I got the name for the company "Makarva" from Stuart Ashen's Ashenscast for Stand Up To Cancer stream, where he mentioned a fake computer called "Makarva 47".

Description: After Rich Drexler left his job at a savvy digital media startup in Liberty City, he decided he wanted a change of pace. So, after moving back to his home town of Los Santos, he founded Drexler News: an alternate news website only dedicated to unbiased, factual reporting. Pledging support especially to the presidential campaign of real estate magnate Lyle Cleethorpes IV (affectionately known as Thorpe, the Cleet, Cleets, etc.) to the point of putting their executive chair in the White House, the website has seen a recent rush in viewers, ready to have a good taste of sweet decaf white nationalism.

Famous for popularizing the 'listicle' style of '''reporting''', Bait 'n Click has seen equal measures of support and criticism. Criticism mainly being claims of 'shallow journalism' or 'large amounts of plagiarism', and support being nice comments on the article Top 10 Reasons Anita Mendoza Has Been Killing It Recently!

In Choosy's case, this was the music industry - or specifically how easy it is to throttle the personal profit of musicians in favor of record companies and subscription services. As more and more companies mimic their business model, like the popular Fruit Music or the less-than-popular, Tony McTony owned 'Wave', you have to wonder... how much more can you be alienated from the product of your labor?

Jack's Home Made Burgers

Based on: Bob's Burgers

Founded: 1986.

Defunct: Closed down in 2004.

Motto: "The best restaurant for home-made fast food in Liberty City."

Website: None.

Headquarters: Onondaga Avenue, Hove Beach, Liberty City.

Description: Founded by Jack and Alison Farter in 1986, Jack's Home Made Burgers is best described as a budget version of Burger Shot, with better hospitality and slightly higher quality food. Conveniently located on Onondaga Avenue, which leads to the Funland in Firefly Island, this restaurant also contains the Farters' home, as it was founded on a rental property. The restaurant sold "Burgers of the Day", names of which are written on the board and are various puns and word play on films, music and whatnot, which are generally family-friendly, unless Jack's youngest daughter changed it to something inappropriate on the board. The Farters, consisting of Jack, Alison, and their children: Daniel, Wes and Pat are seen as very friendly people to anyone who visited their restaurant. Jack's Home Made Burgers went through a struggle of disasters and was re-opened once in 1994, then again in 1995 and yet again in 1996. It was once rumored that the restaurant sold human flesh, but it was later debunked. The restaurant's owner, Jack Farter, had a frequent rivalry with the owner of the Leone Pizzeria across the street, and despite the popularity amongst Americans and Russian immigrants, the restaurant was frequently visited by the health inspector, and eventually, the restaurant was closed down for good in 2004.

2kilo games

based on: 2k games

founded: 2006

headquarters: bayside, san andreas

description: founded in 2006 by gerald dunning, 2kilo games is a well known video game publisher responsible for many rushed out the door, repetitive, mediocre video games. studios owned by 2kilo games consist of 2kilo czech, 2kilo bayside, and 2kilo venturas. here is a list of some of the games developed by 2kilo games.

• mob city (developed by 2kilo czech) mob city is a so called "open world game" set in a fictional version of carcer city in the 1930s. you take control of an italian-american cab driver who decides to join the mafia to try to become respected and known as a gangster because he is a sad loser who's life sucks so bad he has become a criminal just to make people respect him. the game is criticized for making you go to the menu and select a whole different mode just to roam around an empty open world with nothing to do in it. 
• mob city 2 (developed by 2kilo czech) mob city 2 once again puts you in the shoes of another italian-american wannabe gangster who has no friends and lives in his mom's basement and works at burger shot. only this time the game takes place in liberty city in the 1950's. the map is even smaller than the last game yet the open world is still an empty shell. it is criticized for not having melee weapons like the last game did. the story is the same as the first game. mob city 2 is pretty much just an even sh*ttier version of the first game.
• mob city 3 (developed by 2kilo bayside) in this installment in the mob city franchise you take control of some random black dude who just decides to run around a city and shoot people for no reason. this game not even related to the topic the series at all and is even worse than the first two games. 2kilo games has discontinued the series partly due to each game being an absolute failiure and due to the mob city fanbase being a bunch of intellectually confused morons who cant even decide when and where mob city 4 should take place.

First post of 2020, let's keep the creativity going

[Grotti Vigilante]

I'm going to have a lot of fun with this stuff...

 

Airlines

• British Skyways - a parody of British Airways known for it's lacklustre customer service and terrible food served by bitter middle-aged women who've become jaded with life as their looks faded and they stopped being groped by businessmen in First Class. Since it's real life counterpart is known by the abbreviation "BA", I've no doubt where you see the Rockstar humour in this name.
• Maiden Airways - a parody of Virgin Atlantic set up to compete with the godawful flag carrier of Great Britain, this airline is renowned for it's cabin crew who critics have consistently described as consisting of women in heavy makeup on par with that of a circus clown, and chino-wearing camp men with no less than two piercings in their ears, both of whom deliver top quality fake smiles that let you know just how much of your crap they'll be willing to tolerate. Maiden is a synonym for virgin.

Retail

• Pontus(dot)com, Inc. - a parody of Amazon delivering high-quality retail and delivery service, paid for by the taxes it doesn't pay, and with working conditions that would demand you slave 24 hours a day for 68 years just to earn what your boss makes in just one hour of your time. Pontus is derived from Themiscyra (Pontus), an Ancient Greek town believed in Greek Mythology to be the capital city of the Amazons.

Mass Media

• The Mouse Media Corporation - a parody of The Walt Disney Company that have poured so much of their money into making sure "boycott" is no longer a feasible word in your dictionary as you watch one of their streaming services, lest you go back to living in mud huts and hunting elk for dinner. Quite obviously a reference to Mickey Mouse, who is the face of Disney and often referred to as "The Mouse".

I'll give some more if I come up with any as time goes on, but until then I hope you all like my suggestions.

Maiden Airways - a parody of Virgin Atlantic set up to compete with the godawful flag carrier of Great Britain, this airline is renowned for it's cabin crew who critics have consistently described as consisting of women in heavy makeup on par with that of a circus clown, and chino-wearing camp men with no less than two piercings in their ears, both of whom deliver top quality fake smiles that let you know just how much of your crap they'll be willing to tolerate. Maiden is a synonym for virgin.

There's already a parody of Virgin Group though, which also includes a parody of Virgin Atlantic.

The Walt Disney Company is already mocked by Rockstar, too.

Qiutu Technologies

Based on: Huawei
Motto: "Ensuring your status as a prisoner of your own home!"
Website: www.qiutu.cn
Headquarters: Guangzhou, Guangdong, China

BAWSAQ: QTU

 

Description: 

A Chinese government-owned corporation specializing in information technology, drones and smartphones. Released a number of smartphone models in the mid-to-late 2010s in both Europe and the States, and has butted heads with the U.S. Government, who together with their competitors, LifeInvader and The Fruit Corporation, accuse them of tapping into American networks as well as engaging in cyber espionage, and respond by removing access to several key apps such as Bleeter to Qiutu users, which are used globally. China retaliates by cutting off visas to American tourists and making propaganda videos that demonize Western technology, which is shown only to its citizens.

 

The corporation has worked on the implementation of a new wireless technology on their products that will revolutionize the industry, and proudly proclaims this technology to be explosive, "both metaphorically and literally". They assure consumers that that every Qiutu user will now have the opportunity to be exposed to more radiation in their own home than at the Elephant's Foot in Chernobyl.

Korundi

Based on: Nokia.

Motto: "United in communication."

Website: www.korundi.mobile.com.

Headquarters: Greater Helsinki, Uusimaa, Finland.

BAWSAQ: KNI.

Description: Before producing what Korundi can do best, these geeky Finns had numerous attempts to bring the world of modern technological discoveries from the Western Europe and the United States, including pagers, TV sets, computers, military radios and even rubbers, everything causing sudden shifts in the company's priorities, staff and reputation. Said shifts wouldn't stop until the 1990's when after trying to conquer the telecommunication industry was a huge success, thanks to Korundi's phones accessibility, now-cult video games (like the famous "Borderline", which is just a clone of the classic 1987 Degenatron video game "Don't Cross the Line") and, of course, huge endurance to the point that caused many urban legends spreading around the World about how people get their stuff destroyed or accidently killed someone solely because their Korundi phone fell down. The Golden days of Korundi ended up around 2013 when Facade had bought the brand and forced automatic upgrades for all the owners of Korundi smartphones causing to replace the original operating systems with Facade's Ballustrade Mobile Edition. A few years ago, Korundi's returned to making mobile phones, now using Drone operating systems and featuring even 4 rear cameras, just to piss iFruit 17iXS owners off.
