which city for GTA 5?

I think the colonies have long since developed their own charactersitic idiosyncrasies.

There was this game that existed around the same time as the pre-3D GTAs called Driver.

The first one was set in Miami/SF/LA/NYC but the second was set in Chicago, Havana, Las Vegas and Rio.

I played the hell out of these 2 games. Good times.

The LA part of San Andreas was amazing, I think they should do LA again revamped.

Tokyo would be super-hott -- yakuza, geishas, neon motocycles, mechas. Shinjuku would be total eyeporn overload.

Also: Putin-era Moscow!!

Imagine if they did a Hong Kong or Japan gangster movie homage game? (Though this may be happening in part through the Chinatown Wars game, which I am looking forward to more than I thought I would) A Rockstar-realized Tokyo or HK would be incredible, though I admit having it fully acted and written in English might be weird. I like the Prohibition-era idea, too.

San Andreas * GTA IV grimness - happy fun-time wacko missions would be depressing, though.

GUN was an attempt at a GTA:Deadwood style game but i dont think anybody ever played it. also it was wasn't good.

theres no way theyll take this shit out of USA. DREAM ON

GTA Delaware

GUN was an attempt at a GTA:Deadwood style game but i dont think anybody ever played it. also it was wasn't good.

It was ALMOST good though. There wasn't anything to do in the world, and it felt very linear. You take that template and actually make a real cowboy game with open plains and buried treasure and indian attacks and I would play the shit out of it.

Balto/DC and NOLA are both good ideas.

yeah, I think baltimore/DC could be really good while obv totally satisfying the inner wirestan

^^^they already have a lot of blueprint plots they could pilfer

they could just use the fallout 3 maps

dubai
mogadishu
mumbai
detroit
montreal

It should of course be set in the 2015 Hill Valley from Back to the Future II.

When ideas like a time-travelling GTA seem like a good idea to me, I know I should be working for the Sonic Team.

GTA: Tokyo would be hella stupid, I fear. Maybe if they teamed up with a Japanese developer it could work.

Shit, make it the whole USA, set it in Prohibition and run moonshine from mexico in Texas and California, from appalachian stills to the midwest, from canada into NY, Chicago and Seattle, from Cuba into Florida (GTBoat?)

Tommy guns! Fedoras! Model Ts! HORSES!

All y'all crying out for a Proper Gangsters GTA know that there's a sequel on the way to Mafia (which is a apparently both quite good and not confused with Godfather the video game by anyone except me)?

why would anyone set a game in montreal

Manchester 1990 would be ace. Hacienda, Afflecks Palace, big fuckoff flares, triad. A feature length prequel to the Maccer (Shaun Ryder) story from San Andrea.

Andreas even.

Also would need trippy Jeff Noon side-stories.

voted delhi, I think

unless someone else did

GTA: maryhill

saw a dude hook a woman wielding a meat cleaver out my window earlier this week

WHAT?

xp. I love Glasgow.

Getting off the subway at St George's Cross is as near to Maryhill as I get.

60s London would be awesome, if only for the soundtrack. I want to do some drive-bys to merseybeat. They could get Michael Caine to do the voice-overs!

dude hooked her right on the jaw as she was walking straight towards him shouting "you're going to get life!" with her meat cleaver raised above her head

o_O

seriously though, fingers crossed for some HD neontastic vice city visuals.

Dubai is the best idea here by miles I think.

sweeeeeeeeet

Would totally get excited for this. Still my favourite GTA game.

was playing VC the other day, loved the arcade quality of it - like picking up police bribes.

i hope they give better rewards in the next game. vc 100% completion gives you infinite ammo, double vehicles health. double health for vigilante missions, double armour for vigilante. GTAIV gave you NOTHING for doing anything!

Yeah. I liked the Vice City thing of giving you small rewards for every 10 or so hidden packages too, rather than making you find all 100 to get anything, so you could just find them casually and be happy not getting every single one. Free guns and armour without any walkthrough-related guilt.

that rockstarbase article implies that GTA will start following a cycle of the three major locations for every platform iteration.

I wouldn't mind a return to Vice City but would be more interested in a location in Asia.

should be the whole world imo

i don't play these games but the fact that that poster is for "vesuvius citrate" immediately suggested to me that it would Naples (home of the Camorra) or some version thereof.

GTA Budapest

GTA Blood Diamonds

GTA ILX

Niko Raggett

What an odd, pretty much content-less post. It's like the guy wanted so desperately to find out the next city that he posts a bit of utter speculation about very, very little in hopes the knowledge will appear.

I bet my left baw the next yin is in vice city.

GUN was an attempt at a GTA:Deadwood style game but i dont think anybody ever played it. also it was wasn't good.

It was ALMOST good though. There wasn't anything to do in the world, and it felt very linear. You take that template and actually make a real cowboy game with open plains and buried treasure and indian attacks and I would play the shit out of it.
