  1. It always bothered me that I could never make CJ look as cool as that shirtless Vago. Fingers crossed for better tattoos (that cover a larger area) in V.

    The Vagos were, by far, my favorite gang.

    I agree, I liked them and the Azteca's. I really wanted CJ to look like a gangbanger. But the way the clothes and tattoos were, just made him look like an idiot. I'm hoping for sleeves and like you said large area tattoos (would look good on Trevor's crazy ass, like really, on his actually ass)

    Trevor flying his drugs into Los Santos by plane...

    I agree with Marcus, Looks like Trevor's probably over-watching Franklin, in the red car, who's being pursued.

    One thing i noticed from this image. Just look at how huge the mountains look in perspective to the cars and road. I don't think we've seen much of scale-perspective like this so far. It really does show us how dominant the landscape is compared to the flatlands of Liberty City. Look at how small we will feel stood at the base of that mountain to the right... I love it!

    This screenshot reminds me of the bottom left corner of the GTA:SA map.

    Holy shit... I just noticed the car to mountain ratio. Time to go base jumping!


  3. Did u really put a pic of the game and try to pass it off as lime crap? C'mon now I'm stating fcts, put a poll up and let the people decide

    Listen R* didn't str8 up try to make it obvious, look up your history and connect the dots

    It was a joke Tanner did, the pic was on google... they didn't have any real pics of the Lime Hood piru, just fake ones

  4. Let's reminisce for a sec, remember the seville blvd grove set? They are actually based on pirus because pirus were crips that split, even tho grove street and seville blvd get back together in the end, the piru-crip thing was the backstory for that

    That make's no sense... You mean to tell me they were Ballas for a little while? That's pretty much what you are saying. And it's Seville Blvd FAMILIES, not Grove. They split because of a disagreement but they never changed gangs. They were now enemies and at war. Kinda like in real life, Most Crips are killed... by other Crips, it's the same with Blood/Pirus.


  5. Dogg no, grove street is based on spruce street in compton, look it up on the map, cul de sac and everything

    Idk if ur saying tree top pirus are grove cus they wear dark green but they are also known to wear burgundy too

    Well they can't be because The Families are based on Piru's... And so what, their are 100 cul-de-sac's in Compton, that doesn't mean Grove Street is based on them... everyone knows GTA maps arn't exact replicas.


  6. Yea...Grove street is not based on bloods at all, they're based on crips since they're in Ganton (compton). Compton is traditionally crip territory. The ballas in the game had idlewood (inglewood). Inglewood is tradtionally blood. So that covers that and in san andreas vagos were MS13/18th street, varrios los aztecas were surenos, and san fierro rifa were based on nortenos

    And I'm kinda happy that the ballas don't shoot at you everytime u see them, annoying as fuck when they shoot out my tires, it would make sense that they would make them more tame, gang banging started to die after the riots and the truces between sets/gangs

    I always thought Grove Street Families were more like Bloods, and the Ballas were like the Crips. Since the ratio of Bloods to Crips is like 1:5, and the Ballas definitely outnumbered Grove Street 5 to 1 at the beginning of GTA San Andreas. Plus the Ballas gang colour purple is closer to Blue ( IE Crips ) then Grove Street's Green is.

    Well purple is red and blue mixed so it could go either way, and the reason why there is more ballas is to make the game more difficult. Just so many things could tell u that grove street is crips, the character ryder who's based on the rapper eazy-e was a crip, a kelly park COMPTON crip.

    Ganton = Compton

    And c'mon ballas - bloods, that's too close to deny

    And the character OG LOC was an associated wit grove, and in real life Loc means 'Love Of Crip' or Locc - 'Love Of Compton Crip'

    No. They were based on the Compton Piru's, Their are no Bloods in Compton. The Ballas were Crips. "Rollin Heights Ballas" ="Rollin 60's Crips" "Kilo Tray Ballas" = "8 Tray Crips" and "Front yard Ballas" = "Front Hood Compton Crips" ..... come on now. And then this.. "Grove Street Families" = "Lime Hood Piru" (which is in the exact area Grove Street is on the Map)

    Ill try to find a map:

    Okay here it is.... http://maps.google.c...12690f6dcf9e0f1 and here's info on the Lime Hood Piru: http://www.rapdict.org/Lime_Hood_Piru "Lime Hood Piru members are known to sport articles of clothing in green (to signify Lime Avenue; a residential street in the heart of their territory)" Hmmm sounds a lot like "Grove Street" the actual street I mean.. Right in the heart of their territory... Yep, that long road leading into a cul-de-sac.


  7. 2pac is a must for gta 5 radio, he IS LA/west coast. But they didn't even have B.I.G. in gta 4 and he was the 2pac of the east coast/NYC.

    Idk if they'll have kendrick lamar in the game cus a characters name is lamar but hopefully. Rockstar has always been putting songs and genres of the time of the game, so don't be suprised if u see lil wayne/YMCMB and all the alternitive rock crap u hear these days

    You mean Tupac was the Biggie Smalls of the West Coast, Biggie > Pac. Next, why the fuck would they not include Kendrick Lamar just because a characters name is Lamar? That doesn't make any sense.


  8. Isn't Grove St. Crips? In South Los Angeles there is a Crip set called Rollin 60's. They have a hood somewhere called OverHills so in GTA V they might have just named it Killer Hills... I don't know.

    No.

    Nope. They are based on Tree-Top Piru.

    How did you figure that?

    Because I'm smart.

    And "Hillside Families" instead of Grove Street? It sounds much closer to the real life Tree-top piru gang.. http://gta.wikia.com..._in_HD_Universe

    GTA wiki also says the GameInformer article mentioned that the Vagos were back. I must have missed that while reading because i don'y recall it.


  9. Isn't Grove St. Crips? In South Los Angeles there is a Crip set called Rollin 60's. They have a hood somewhere called OverHills so in GTA V they might have just named it Killer Hills... I don't know.

    No.

    Nope. They are based on Tree-Top Piru.

    Plus, with Rockstar saying that the Ballas will not open fire on you or even fight you unless they are aggravated is somewhat gay. It's just like in IV and EFLC. I could play as Johnny, walk right up to the AOD clubhouse with members outside and not a damn thing would happen. Shit they might as well make it were the Ballas give you a hug when you pass them.


  10. If they're calling it an island after seeing the map from the character switch then I think it's pretty much an island... Which I'm fine with, since it's worked out fine in the past.

    From what I heard they only called it an island because that is the word R* used in the demo. I do not think they saw the whole map, at least not in detail.

    that said, I do not really care at this point. I will love it no matter how they work the map.

    I think the previews saw the whole map when R* switched characters, I believe they said it zoomed out enough to see the entire map. Or at least that's the way the CVG guys made it sound...


  11. Must say, graphics look pretty... unchanged. However, like it said in one of the articles, most people don't play GTA for the graphics.

    The graphics look great bro, c'mon now.

    It's by no means bad, and I guess is pretty good for an open world game. I think the only way to tell for sure is by seeing some gameplay. I would be fine with something like RDR or MP3, but anything less would be a step back.

    Agreed.

    What is that dude on the motorbike (red T-shirt) doing? It does not seem to be a weapon, nor a camera..

    Looks like a camera to me.

    It's a camera from the "paparazzi" mission.

    Damn, it sure is that's the mission they were talking about, you can see the Von Crastenburg Hotel they mentioned also.


  12. To the right of Micheal's head you can see a map or something, maybe to plan the escape route they´re going to use after the heist? Because it looks like there's a palm tree seen from top of it, and some roads to. Also on the same poster, to the left of Micheals's head this time, you can see the 'EyeWish' logo, maybe a parody on Google Maps? What do you think?michaelplanning.jpg

    It's "eyefind.info" lol but that's a pretty good catch you got there. It looks as if it was printed off, I can see the "search key" on it.


  13. GameInformer says... "San Andreas fans look back fondly at the gang wars between the Ballas, Grove Street Families, and Vagos. Though modern day Los Santos is very different from the golden era of street gangs featured in that game, Rockstar has confirmed that the Ballas are still going strong.

    "When you ride into gang territory, they don't automatically attack you like they used to. The thugs mind their own business unless you antagonize them by drawing a weapon. Their extreme distaste for authority, however, is much more apparent. Whenever the police roll into their neighborhood, the Ballas will open fire on the boys in blue. This can be used to your advantage when you're trying to lose the heat in a chase. Drive into gang territory and they will immediately attack the police, giving you a window to escape. "

    Interesting...


  14. I don't really like "Bullet-time" I hope that shit won't be in the multiplayer, everything else sounds amazing tho! I thought Rockstar said their would be no major model customization such as tattoos, hairstyles, etc... huh, whadda know.

    I was reading IGN's preview... but they spelled "Niko" like "Nico" so i stopped there. I can't stand that.

    Didn't mean to quote my on post. Whoops. I'm so excited i'm clicking the wrong stuff. lol
