Smash Bandicoot Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 (edited) -The guy who gives you the mission is called "Luigi" -The mission is about taking a girl, which is similar to how most Nintendo games have you rescue a damsel-in-distress. -The name of the prostitute you pick up is "Misty", kind of odd, but not only that, she also has short ginger hair. -Unrelated, but Mickey being named Mickey might also be a mockery of Disney, which also ties into the children's media mockery. What do you think, is this just a big stretch? GTA 3 has some weird f*cking Newgrounds type humor, so this isn't that big of one.

MiamiViceCity1986 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Can I just say that I find these “similarity” threads absolutely hilarious? It’s like you don’t have anything better to do other than trying to make the most paper thin connections with things. It done it in for me when you said Niko’s a parody of Nikola Tesla. What’s next? Love Fist is a parody of Donald Love because “Love” is in their name or maybe Mercedes-Benz paid R* for some product placement in Vice City literally naming one of the characters “Mercedes”? wise_man, Mattineu, Legomanarthur and 16 others 15 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iiCriminnaaL Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 (edited) This opens up another theory: what if Salvatore's name was fake, and his real name is actually GTA III's equivalent of Mario? It makes so much sense; He is Italian. He is Luigi's boss. He has a big mustache.

Yeah, and he changed his name when coming to America like Vito Andolini did in The Godfather II: "- Who are you? - Vito Andolini from Corleone. - Vito Corleone."

iiCriminnaaL Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Seriously, though, I wouldn't be surprised if Luigi's name was a mockery of Luigi from the Super Mario Bros. franchise (even though it's most likely not a too rare Italian name after all), but the mission Luigi's Girls overall? Not quite frankly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H-G Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Two words: Face. Palm. Everything you just said is outright unbelievable. How did you actually even think that R* would go that far just for some inside joke?

GTAFanLuca Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 My name is Luca. I hope that at least some of you got the reference, but oh well, in case it goes beyond your limited minds, Ray Boccino's henchman from GTA IV, Luca, is a mockery of me. Rockstar Games had the balls to make a mockery of me. Whenever I play GTA IV and I go through ''Taking out the Trash'' and ''Meltdown'', I always die a little on the inside. Fortunately for me, I struck a deal with Rockstar Games. Just because of those 2 horrendous missions, they pay me $500,000 every single month since the release of GTA IV. That's why they have been parading around the same game ever since 2013 and why there is no mobile version for GTA Vice City Stories. My humble apologies to all of you.

StraightouttaNewport Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 I doubt it, Rockstar's many things but subtle sure isn't one of them, if they were going to mock Nintendo they'd make it really really obvious.
