I think that playing as an older guy is an interesting angle. You rarely see that in games (although I guess Red Dead is a good recent example), so I'm wondering how the general tone of the game will feel as a result.
Older + kids makes me think of Kane & Lynch.

Really liked that shot of the wind generators.

They aren't just going to put an invisible wall there. Obviously you also have this:

Holy mother of poo poo.

Can't find a way to watch it on my phone and the hospital's network has all game related sites blocked. I guess I'll have to wait until tonight to see it, but that pic alone has me excited because the mountain and area south of SF in SA was my favorite part of the game.

IIRC he said that if he had known how successful Vice City was going to be he would have asked for more money, which pissed Rockstar off.

I was hoping the V would be for Vice City but San Andreas is the 2nd best GTA so I suppose I can live with that.

Are you sure you aren't confusing this with the voice actor for Nico?

Or honestly, about any other voice actor? They regularly get poo poo on and don't get royalties, etc.

"I've got the knowledge!"

Kotaku forums frame-by-frame nerds have proved that the side of the cop car in the trailer officially says City of Los Santos Police Department.

This is going to be a great game.

I wouldn't get my hopes up with this game being tied to the GTA3-verse. Personally I don't think this'll have anything to do with Tommy Vercetti or CJ or any of the GTA3-era protagonists.

Looking at it again, there are a few shots of car license plates, some of which pretty clearly say Los Santos (as does a sign on the beach in the beginning of the trailer) but some seem to say something else. They're pretty obscured even in the HD version, though.

Deal With It
Yeah, I'm struggling a bit with this one. One the one hand there's no GTA game I love more than San Andreas. On the other hand, there's nothing new in this trailer. It's all been-there-done-that with spruced up graphics. That may have been enough for GTA IV, but I'm not sure that's enough for GTA V.

The Tommy V thing makes a ton of sense. It's an old guy moving to San Andreas looking for a new start, trying to change his old ways. He looks just like him...and the "V" thing.

Tommy V was the best protagonist. YOU'RE ALL DICKS

It also gives us an excuse to have a protagonist who is a lot of fun, has no qualms about killing, and loves to throw his cash around.

You know, just like the player.

No one has said the obvious yet. Do you think it's Tommy V?

Possibly. Sounded like an older Ray when he first started talking. Plus he comes to Los Santos and immediately "buys a big house" which only someone with a lot of money can do, and Tommy V should have a ton of money still.

I wonder if this is related to the rumor a while back about how there is three playable characters (would fit with that shot of the trio on the mountain). "Tommy" and "CJ" and the rumored female protagonist.

Nope, Liotta got all bitchy about Vice. So did Niko!

Man, they HAVE to give us LV and SF now, what will they do otherwise. sorry, invisible wall?!

I hope the mountain is a metaphor for 'yep, there is more poo poo to come behind this!'

Holy gently caress, without reading the other comments and just watching this... SAN ANDREAS IS BACK :D Oh gently caress, cannot wait. Huge lands with mountains and other stuff.... this is going to rule so hard. Hopefully the PC port comes around the same time and is better but I'll probably just jump on the PS3 anyways.

They have a source:

"Rockstar has confirmed that Grand Theft Auto V will be set in its fictional world of San Andreas." it's Rockstar

Whether they're overinterpreting something is an entirely different matter.

I hope R* have just gone gently caress it. Ditched all the 4 characters and gone back to the 3- era universe, or even a mix of both somehow. Tommy Vercetti would be poo poo-kickin rad.
