Which Era 3d games are from the same universe ?

Hi I'm new here, I always find myself thinking ???
Are all games released or published by Rockstar part of the same universe or do each game have its own universe. Particularly I wanted to know about the 3D Era, which share the same universe.

GTA 3, GTA VC, GTA Advance, GTA SA, GTA LCS, GTA VCS, Manhunt, Manhunt 2, and Bully all take place in the same universe, just different periods of time.

Why Bully? Only thing I can think is in GTA IV Niko's fake CV mentions him attending Bullworth Academy. But GTA IV is an HD universe game. And Bully is from the 3D era of consoles. So not sure where it fits, if at all (probably more accurate to just say it's in the same universe as GTA in general). Unless there's some other reason you include it.

You guys are right. I forgot Bully was released in ‘07. I was thinking ‘05 and that Bullworth was mentioned in at least VCS. However the models for the Stallion and Regina (and probably just a few more) are found in the shop in Bully. But that’s probably just leftover assets to save development time. Like how vehicles from IV are in Max Payne 3

Yeah it's a weird one because of the HD era game referring to a 3D era game thing. I think it counts though, place names usually stay the same between eras so if Bullworth is mentioned in HD era GTA it probably means a 3D era Bullworth existed in 3D era GTA. All too complicated if you ask me :lol:

I like to think it exists in the 3Dverse because, ya know…. graphics :yee: but I’m so invested now I feel like I’m having a Mandela effect moment. I found this thread from 2014 and a user said there’s billboards for ZIP from SA and NPCs mention Starkweather so maybe it is? Or maybe I’m just over thinking this now :kekw:

I believe Bully is kinda in the middle between both 3D and HD universe, but there is no official statement from Rockstar themselves so your guess is good as mine.

Also there is an advert in IV which shows CJ driving a hotring racer in the airport of San Fierro. Probably they just recycled what they had to fill in the blanks, to avoid doing new assets for something this minimal.

**State of Emergency 2 (2039)

 

 

* Bully is rather unique, as it exists in both 3D and HD universes and in a way serves as the gateway between them.

 

** These are a bit debatable, taking place a little bit further into the future. My own personal headcanon includes these into the 3D universe however.

Highly doubt it, those games weren't even made by Rockstar and have never been mentioned in any form or shape

State of Emergency 2 specifically has nothing to do Rockstar since it wasn't published by them, Oni and SOE 1 were but I doubt they are part of the 3D era universe.

Also don’t brands like Sprunk and Zip show up in Bully?

Manhunt 2 is 2007 at least that’s when it came out. The conclusive list for the 3D Universe is this:

 

GTAIII

 

GTAVC

 

GTASA

 

GTA Advanced 

 

GTALCS

 

GTAVCS

 

Manhunt

 

Manhunt 2

 

Bully
