Where is Malibu?

Why isn’t Malibu in GTA SA? Feels like a no brainer.

@BennyGod We all met Malibu Club with Kent Paul but we met Kent Paul as a sound engineer in SA. Malibu Club became Tommy's but as you know there was only one "Mentioning" from Tommy but no cameo apperances.. If we could see Malibu Club we had to meet Tommy in San Andreas and according to old Rockstar Tradition there are minimal MAIN character interactions in these series.. for example opening helicopter scene with Victor in Vice City or Claude apperance in Farewell My Love 😉 

 

Long story short..the answer is Tommy Vercetti 😎

No idea what they're trying to say above me. I got about halfway through and my brain made me hold my breath in an attempt to suffocate itself.

 

As for your question, there's three thoughts. Number one is, there's nothing to suggest that the Malibu is a "chain" of bars. The one situated in VC might be a one shot deal. Number two, we're not exactly short of bars, clubs and other similar places, especially in LV which is obviously swimming in luxury and hedonism. Number three, who's to say there wasn't a Malibu bar at one point? Maybe they got muscled out or lost business to the many other more contemporary venues that could offer people a better time.

 

For all we know, it went downhill not long after Tommy acquired it.

They?? I'm the only guy who replied this answer.. and yeah it was a confusing but at least you could read the last sentence or i should seperate my answer 😃

 

In general most companies wants to open new franchises or chains at inside/outside of country but only few of them takes a desicion to not open.. For example if you have an idea about Germany there is a techno club called Berghain and it is the only club in Germany/World 😉

The LVPD police car is the closest thing you'll get ingame to the Chevy Malibu I'm sorry

Why would it be? It's not a franchise that expands all throughout America. I really don't get it why you think it's a no brainer.

Thank-you for that. I got really confused as I read the OP's question over and over again. Malibu is in Vice City, so why would it be in SA? VC is not re-presented in SA at all, it'd be a very random thing to do to include it.

 

So for me @ArmanCan's answer actually made sense :D

I'm pretty sure @BennyGod meant Malibu the "city" east-ish of Los Angeles, Chumash in GTA V

Yeah this thread confused me. My first thought was of the city of Malibu after reading the op, but then some of you guys started going on about that bar in VC. o_O

I mean it's not like Malibu is a world famous town. Naturally we are going to assume the bar from VC, unless specified otherwise.

 

If the question was indeed aimed at the town of Malibu then the answer is quite simple. R* doesn't like to strictly follow geography. Yeah it could have been included but it's not that much of a no brainer. You could ask why don't we have a Bakersfield or an Oakland and the answer would be the same.

Yeah sure looks like Palomino Creek. As I said, R* doesn't do geography. And that's why we don't have Malibu.

I couldn't tell if everyone was just pretending to think they were talking about the Malibu Club as a joke or not lol. OP doesn't say THE Malibu or mention a club so it's pretty clear what they mean.

Reading that the super small towns in San Andreas are based on real life cities blew my mind lol. They're far too small for that to be believable even in GTA world. To be fair some of them are based on smaller places and do seem to bear some resemblence to them. But Palomino Creek being Bakersfield is ridiculous lmao
