Guest Failed Mascot Report post Posted December 15, 2004 I was thinking about this while playing Vice City about half an hour ago. After their covering the late 80s/early 90s California gang wars what's left? Only thing I could think of is to cover the 30-50s mob in Chicago and the soundtrack to that might not be appealing to anybody. I guess they could cover 70s Las Vegas as well. That's gotta be it though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Red Baron 0 Report post Posted December 16, 2004 60's in London England. That would be cool. Or Tokyo, Hong Kong, Beijing. I mean they could try and do Vancouver, and be very Canadian about it, but i don't think it would fly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cameron chaos 0 Report post Posted December 16, 2004 60's in London England. Already been done as a mission pack for GTA 2, if I recall. 30s NY or 50s Vegas would be good, I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mafia sorta did that, but without the soundtrack. I imagine a GTA-esque soundtrack would be rather amusing though "President Roosevelt is in the news again..."

Golgo 13 0 Report post Posted December 16, 2004 They could always try setting the story in a foreign locale, as already mentioned, going back to ideas from the first two games, or even revisiting cities they've done recently. I'm sure they would love to remake and upgrade GTA III at some point, or expand on Las Venturas. England. Russia. South America. Mexico. Hong Kong, Taiwan. Japan. Although gathering soundtracks for many of those... yeah, that's the problem. The best chance of any of those would probably be Japan or England. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Special K 0 Report post Posted December 16, 2004 Japan could have an interesting wrinkle in it too, as guns are very rare. They could beef up the hand to hand fighting! England would have the most killer soundtrack. I want an all-Clash station. I'd love to see what they could come up for for London or Tokyo in the graphics dept. I bet it would be gorgeous.

LaParkaMarka 0 Report post Posted December 16, 2004 I imagine they'd just do a straight up sequel to San Andreas. It's not like the possibilities for CJ are over. If it's a next gen game, I could see them pulling all three big locales (Liberty, Vice, and SA) together in one game. God, that would be awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Failed Mascot Report post Posted December 16, 2004 Think they make cities based on American cities though due to all the cultures. You go to Japan and I doubt you find one sect that is mainly made up of Spanish people and another part of the same city where Afro-Americans call it home. Not to mention nobody would really understand the foreign music. I doubt the game would really sell well at all. If they did one based on Chicago though they could have the rock station with The Beetles and bands of that generation while another was playing Frank Sinatra. Imagine doing drive-bys using a Tommy Gun while listening to ol' Blue Eyes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
