RashFaustinho Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 (edited) Which are the greatest and most absurd feats ever accomplished by the various GTA protagonists? I'm talking about situations that seem impossible to pass / to survive, but yet they somehow manage to get out if it. For example GTA 2 ; Claude Speed escaping from a Prison located in a isolated Island after what it felt like 5 minutes GTA San Andreas ; CJ stealing a military jet and taking down pilots from the US Army with it GTA 5 ; Trevor entering into a massive plane by crashing with an agricultural aircraft in it, somehow surviving.

Bratva Assassin Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Johnny K: Capable of surviving getting shot up or crashing his motorcycle then flying head first at a building, but can’t survive being stomped in the head by Trevor. Trevor Phillips: Can survive catching afire or exploding while being played as, but somehow not when Franklin causes it. Michael De Santa: Again, he can survive if he falls from something very tall as he’ll just respawn at a hospital, but not if Franklin causes him to fall..

Algonquin Assassin Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Tommy - Stealing a Rhino in a convey full of armed soldiers by him himself. Niko - Racking up the highest legitimate body count in the series. Never been arrested and still alive. Claude - Managed to piss off every major gang in Liberty City.

This thread is about absurd feats they could do, not contradictions. @Miamivicecity Claude is still friends with the Red Jacks tho??? Maybe that's the canonical conclusion to III's story, seeing as the last safehouse in the game is in their territory.

Please forgive me. it's been a number of years since I played through GTA III's story and you're probably right. I just remember him pissing off everyone and them wanting to stick his head on a stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm nice bike Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 (edited) Toni Cipriani committing an act of terrorism for $5000 and undoubtedly killing probably hundreds of innocent people in Fort Staunton, just because Donald Love told him to. Even at the end of the mission, the destroyed neighborhood has a hazy cloud covering it and there's a real 9/11 aftermath vibe to it. Trevor just did impossibly stupid sh*t that nobody could possibly survive or not get caught doing. Toni is a mobster-turned-domestic terrorist.

Trevor hasn't got sh*t on Toni when it comes to murderous carnage. This one thing triumphs every other henious act by a GTA protagonist as far as I'm concerned. Considering the post-9/11 tension however, I'm surprised this mission got overlooked tbh. I'm guessing it's because LCS wasn't a very high-profile entry so it more or less went under people's radar, and of course because the Hot Coffee fiasco was still causing a stir back then.

I'd say that's about correct. Nobody even gave a crap about SA having passenger jets that you could fly around and crash into anything with, Hot Coffee was all that was on people's minds with the game. And with not everyone having a PSP and with LCS not being a major entry in the series, they were able to get away with it. I'm surprised they'd even do it, but clearly they felt like pushing the limit a bit more. Maybe they felt a bit bold and wondered whether or not depicting what's essentially a major terrorist attack with a 9/11-looking aftermath would get them in trouble more than sexual content. Knowing what Rockstar was like, I wouldn't be surprised if that was the logic behind that scene. They had to have designed the aftermath after the 9/11 aftermath in the area near the WTC, it just looks too similar to be coincidental, and when else outside of a warzone has someplace looked like that?

I have to say, roaming around Fort Staunton post-destruction felt depressing as hell. Definitely makes the large construction site in it's place in GTA III alot scarier when you know exactly what had previously gone down there 3 years prior. The fact however that such a crudely-rendered and unarousing sex minigame (where both participants are fully clothed) caused up so much outrage is hilariously pathetic when you look back on it, especially since games have outdone themselves with far more explict content since.

H-G Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 (edited) Claude "Speed" - Does not speak even a single alphabet. Carl Johnson - Steals a military jet from the army and flies it around SA, but still says "Aw! You a maniac, ese!" when Cesar pulls off a very simple stunt. Niko Bellic - Goes bowling, and lives in the U.S. without a green card. Luis Fernando Lopez - Has a name longer than any other protagonist's name in the series.
