I shouldn't even say "biggest." Al Capone went down in '31. I mean, there were other gangsters, but the era's still best handled in the 20s.

That's unfair. The History Channel and MTV are at least ACQUAINTED with their fields.

I bet even Fox has some people who have read a newspaper.

It was pretty shit years ago, too.

80% of the shows were about Hitler (getting the details wrong) or Nostradamus (getting the details wrong).

Actually, they probably could have just called it the Hitler channel.

That was a misnomer. It was actually the act of removing it which tended to scrape the contacts. blowing on it was superfluous and, thanks to saliva, potentially harmful.

So what we really need to do is remove his brain, re-insert it, and then boot him back up.

I think I've got it figured out. If you look at the logo and remember what we supposedly know about the game...
SPOILER: show
The game, according to various places like Kotaku, takes place in LA (or the GTA version) and is said to include multiple main characters. The logo reads Grand Theft Auto V Five. What if the logo has V and the word five because we'll have five main characters to control.
Either we'll have the choice of one of five characters like the original GTA or it'll switch from person to person. Mr A will be our guy for a chunk, then Miss B will take over for a while before we get to play as Mr C etc.
They could have them all be members of one gang trying to take over the city/state or seemingly unconnected people who happen to have interweaving stories.

Or perhaps, have the main character go to jail for four years on some charge. Then 4 years later he gets out (they do the release date for the game EXACTLY four years from the prior game)

That could be an interesting idea.

Or he could get blown up at the end of the first game, where he's put in the local prison's hospital wing and doesn't wake up for a year or two, and has to shoot his way out with the help of one of the few people still loyal to him.

...what, you've heard that before?

Yeah, that's pretty much what I figure. Though I am starting to think that it might be a little too much for DLC content, considering you'd probably new an entirely new map, whereas in GTA 4 and the DLC it was the exact same city/map.

I'm not adverse to paying full price for the DLC, honestly. If it really is LA, maybe the expansions/DLC/sequels will be the other two SA cities. And if you own GTA 5 (or if it's DLC) then there's the option of flying to the other cities to mess around and do certain missions.

The potentially extra cities would have to be way smaller than the one in GTA V especially if the price on a DLC would be near the main game's price and the time needed to develop them.

The Episodes from GTA IV took well over a year to make and going back to the Vice City and SA games, those took about 6-9 months to make each out of the GTA III engine. Only reasons the Episodes was even created was due Rockstar asking Microsoft for money to finish GTA IV and in return made the Episodes as payback.

What if as DLC, they give you an entirely new city.

Think about it for a second. Say for example you play through the regular game and then the DLC is you having to go to another city to help out family or whatever reason they make up for you having to go there.

Basically, it would be like San Andreas in that you go to a whole new city every so often. I never felt that with GTA4, mostly because its all the same city.

To be fair, the scale was different. While SA was a whole (or part of an) entire state, Liberty City in 4 was generally about the same size as the map in SA, maybe a bit smaller if you take into account the amount of nothingness in SA.

Meatball is right that it might not be feasible as DLC. Personally, as I said, I wouldn't mind paying for a whole new game, especially if it's the scale of the original in terms of both map and story. Maybe for that game include a code where if you own GTA 5 you can fly to it with free DLC (or $10 for a used copy, keeping the current trends in mind) where it basically downloads the entire map from GTA 5 but with the cars, pedestrians etc of the later game.

I know it was about the same scale and that in itself is mindblowing. I think SA even though it did have areas where not much is going on, it simulated a real place. Not everywhere is hustle and bustle and I actually had a motorbike in that game, I used to go do cruises on just because it was fun to open up on a straight stretch in the country.

The open desert in Las Venturas many people felt was unneeded, but take a Quad, Bandito or Sanchez out there and its fun as hell.

First of all, let me get something off my chest. AERIS'S DEATH IS NOT A TRAGEDY. No! Shut the hell up. It's not. She gets shish kabobbed by a psycho with a giant katana. Shocking, yes. Sad, sure. A tragedy? Not so much, no. Stop tossing the word "tragic" around before it becomes totally interchangeable with "sad." "Tragic" is supposed to be reserved for special cases. Is Aeris an overwhelmingly noble character brought to corruption and ruin because of an intrinsic flaw that also happens to be inseparable from the qualities which make us admire her in the first place? No. Sephiroth falls from the ceiling and impales her from behind while she's just kneeling there, catching everyone off guard. It doesn't qualify as tragic if you didn't see it coming. Bummer? Sure. Tragic? Not so much.

Aeris was a pretty shitty character anyway. I don't get why it had the resounding impact it did.

I guess it was just because the game was iconic, so the death became iconic too. First Final Fantasy on the PSX.

They were out of the sandbox and play time was over.

Let us have more customization and outfits, but not too much. Not sure how possible it is, but periodically create and release new clothes, haircuts, and tattoos after its release through DLC.

How's that turning GTA into The Sims? The dating/going out with friends is like a Sims game, but wanting a character customized doesn't really seem Sims.

The fact that you want it as paid DLC is my point.

$5 for new hair. $5 for new suits. $5 for more hair.

*rereads for the word "paid"*

*Search negative*

Free DLC might be naive, but I doubt he was asking to pay for it. Nor is it impossible. If Koei can release new outfits and shit for free, surely Rockstar can.
