Yes the Getaway Which would have been epic if they were under R* Games wing!
-
Two random new screens:
-
It's one of my favourite gangster films too. I owned it on VHS, and i said back then i wouldn't buy a DVD version, but i did. Now Blu-ray. You just have to move with the times otherwise your old films could render useless eventually.
So I guess you're the sort of person who buys a new phone every six months to keep up with all the latest faggy "trends" and "apps".
A DVD does me just fine, as long as I have a DVD player I can watch it quite easily. I don't think i'd notice any discernable difference between DVD and Blu-ray versions anyway.
Actually I'm not. I had the same phone for 4 years until my wife finally got me a new contract phone in her name, just to upgrade the relic. Phones arent that big part of my lifestyle. Where-as films and games are.
-
Have it on DVD already, that'll do me.
exactly... as a matter of fact, i watched it about 3 weeks ago too... but if there is a standard edition, i might consider buying it since it is one of my favorite movies and it can be dark in places... it could use a nice HD touch up...

I guess this time though Blu-ray isn't so ground breaking. Digital distribution is on the up and Blu-ray is just there.
I'll get it on blu-ray though. As long as it's a reasonable price.

Does anyone else think whole Niko character was loosely based around Don Vito Corleone from the Godfather? Came in to the country on a boat as an immigrant, and had nothing to begin with. Then he worked his way up earning respect. Kind of rags to riches. But Niko seems quiet and dangerous like Corleone rather than the over-ego'd Tony Montana.

Deko ftw.

This seems like a genuine find to me.
Here is a quote from joystiq, some additional information of this find:
Additional first-name-only characters are listed in the job posting and sound generally befitting of a GTA game -- take "Samantha," for instance: "A young female obsessed with sex parties, always dreaming of being a Hollywood celebrity." The Actors Pages casting call follows a similar job posting on The Agency, for a project named "Rush" (assumed to be a codename and linked to Take-Two), which introduces more puzzle pieces that might fit together into a new GTA game set in Los Angeles -- or "Los Santos," as it's known in San Andreas.GTA: Los Santos anyone?
Also, Jose sounds like a new version of the Truth from SA!
-
You gotta love this video. I think it's done really well, and it actually feels like some sort of GTAIV DLC i could get into tbh!
Post thoughts!
-
Hang on, will there be a normal blu-ray version of this or is it going to be limited edition only? I would like Scarface on Blu-ray, but not that much...
-
I can't believe how much of a blatant ripoff that map is.

I didn't really get into the SR2. The coolest thing was that you could smoke blunts out of your inventory. Everything else was too ridiculous. That said, I need to pick the game back up so I can finish it. I got started and got distracted by better games.
I probably won't touch SR3 until 2013, if ever.
I know what you mean. Same thing happened to me. I think i got to a mission where i had to spray shit all over the street through a fire-engine or some shit. Then Far Cry2 swept me off my feet!
-
That's gonna look purdy. I'm bought!
I just have to do a bank job first, anyone in for a 50/50 split?
-
Map Déjà vu!
-
You have a heart... on your TV...
-
wow, they managed to make him look old and fat!!
It's not the guy in the Southland pic if that's what you mean.
Also, wtf is Phelps doing in that pic?
Maybe he's thinking of having Italian for dinner.
-
Thanks. I wrote that a while back on the old forums, and thought it had some relevance to this.
Unless you mean the current list i want in GTA5. But thanks for that too lol.
-
Let's back track for a second:
What i'm going to do here is compile a list of films that have inspired GTA. If you know of any, please post and i'll add it to the list.Carlito's Way, (1993)
Al Pacino - Carlito 'Charlie' Brigante.
Sean Penn - David Kleinfeld.
Penelope Ann Miller - Gail
John Leguizamo - Benny Blanco
I've not seen this film mentioned on here before tbh. I've only seen it for the first time myself just today, and damn, what an awesome film it is!
Ken Rosenberg in Vice City was based on David Kleinfeld in this Movie!
Scarface, (1983)
Al Pacino - Tony Montana
Steven Bauer - Manny Ribera
Michelle Pfeifferr - Elvira Hancock
Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio- Gina Montana
Robert Loggia- Frank Lopez
Scarface heavily influenced Vice city.
Grand Theft Auto, (1977)
Ron Howard - Sam Freeman
Nancy Morgan - Paula Powers
I've never seen this movie, but obviously GTA got its name from somewhere. I think it's about stealing and wrecking cars... lol
Heat, (1995)
Robert De Niro - Neil McCauley
Al Pacino - Lt. Vincent Hanna
Val Kilmer - Chris Shiherlis
Jon Voight - Nate
Tom Sizemore - Michael Cheritto
R*n used it for the bank job mission in IV.
Casino, (1995)
Robert De Niro - Sam 'Ace' Rothstein
Sharon Stone - Ginger McKenna
Joe Pesci - Nicky Santoro
James Woods - Lester Diamond
GTA:SA had some reference to Casino.
New Jack City, (1991)
Wesley Snipes - Nino Brown
Ice-T - Scotty Appleton (as Ice T)
Allen Payne - Gee Money
Chris Rock - Pookie
The crack "palace" that Smoke lives in - in San Andreas, looks exactly like the Carter Apartment Buildings, crack dealer Nino Brown's headquarters in this 1991 similarly themed film.
Menace II Society, (1993)
Tyrin Turner - Caine
Larenz Tate - O-Dog
Samuel L. Jackson - Tat Lawson
There are numerous references to this film in GTA:SA, especially Grove street, and the whole ghetto thing.
To Live and Die in L.A., (1985)
William Petersen - Richard Chance
Willem Dafoe - Eric 'Rick' Masters
John Pankow - John Vukovich
The whole counterfeiting aspect In GTA:VC is based on this movie. A song also from the movie (Dance Hall Days by Wang Chung) is in the game. Also, there is a car chase in GTA:SA that is clearly a homage to Live and Die in L.A. The scenery and the action, etc.
Cop Land, (1997)
Sylvester Stallone - Freddy Heflin
Harvey Keitel - Ray Donlan
Ray Liotta - Gary Figgis
Robert De Niro - Moe Tilden
Not so much inspiration, more of a cross reference. Ray Liotta plays Tommy in Vice City, and Cop Land is also the name of a mission in Vice City.
Snatch, (2000)
Jason Statham - Turkish
Benicio Del Toro - Franky Four Fingers
Brad Pitt - Mickey O'Neil
Alan Ford - Brick Top
The main inspiration for IV DLC. The Diamond and the way they blend each characters stories into the main game.
High Noon, (1952)
Gary Cooper - Marshal Will Kane
Thomas Mitchell - Mayor Jonas Henderson
Lloyd Bridges - Deputy Marshal Harvey Pell
Katy Jurado - Helen Ramírez
Inspired GTA:IV's Story. Niko's struggle to make choices through-out.
Speed, (1994)
Keanu Reeves - Officer Jack Traven
Dennis Hopper - Howard Payne
Sandra Bullock - Annie Porter
Joe Morton - Capt. McMahon
In GTA:VC, there is a mission where you're not allowed to slow down until you defuse the bomb, otherwise it'll blow.
Easy Rider, (1969)
Peter Fonda - Wyatt
Dennis Hopper - Billy
Antonio Mendoza - Jesus
In GTA:SA, Peter Fonda's character - The Truth, is a parody of the one he played in Easy Rider.
Post Your GTA films, and we'll know where to find them!
There is a lot of decent gangster orientated films referenced here. I think they have to bring back the Mafia element to GTA at some point...
Here is a list of films i think will be nice to see reference to in the next GTA:
Pulp Fiction
Layer Cake
Reservoir Dogs
Donnie Brasco
Gangster No.1
Public Enemies
Gangs of New York (but in present day context)
True Grit
I'll think of more later.

Nice. It's good to see bethisda dishing out the goods as usual. Probably one of the most reliable for DLC other than Media Molecule.
-
Tommy Vercetti - Scarface-esc - Best Protagonist EVAR!
-
BushkaUK. I wouldn't mind a few games of Zombie: Ascension with some of you guys! I got to wave 24 the other day. I think i prefer the zombie elements of multiplayer than the normal competitive stuff.
-
So does the knuckles count as unarmed? i couldn't tell if it was unarmed or melee. But I guess it makes more sense to be unarmed. I did come across a guy telling me about those sunset sarsaparilla caps a while back. So i guessed that they would be important.
Thanks for the tips b0nEs. + 1 for you ^^)
-
Yeah I've been wrecking shit with the normal spiked knuckles, i use it a lot of the time. I've upped my energy weapon stat and melee weapon stat atm oh and science. Might have to get one of those love hate knuckles.
-
I used to keep all my gaming magazines when i was younger, until i had massive stacks and then my mum sold them all at a car boot for like a quid a stack!
-
No, flies are a special effect. The corrupt actually steal the donations to import extra vibrant blue bottles when the film crews come in to town!
That wasn't a dig at the poor staving people btw. I'm not that evil.
-
I started playing New Vegas again today. I didn't really get into it the first time round due to mainly not having any free time. But I'm starting to enjoy it more this time. It doesn't feel like Fallout 3 which is good because it feels fresh. You guys got any tips on weapon locations? or how to make any decent weapons.
Max Payne 3 - ***Use SPOILER tags***
in Other Rockstar Games

Jesus, you never ever played Any of the Max Payne's? The first one was epic and ahead of it's time. I wonder how they're going to relate this one to the old ones... with a completely different setting and character (basically).
