Thats what I had in mind too. Michael did score in the criminal life and ended out up top with lots of cash, unlike Trevor who ended up completely in the wrong direction. And they've stated that Trevor and Michael worked together, so I'm guessing Michael has more connections with other people from his past life other than just Trevor that he could call up. In the 1st trailer, Michael said he moved out here (west coast) to retire. So I'm guessing he isn't from the west and maybe from the other side like Liberty City? And yes, like what Houser said someone will return from the IV game. Maybe Michael has a connection with either the Russian Mafia or one of the crime families from Liberty City and IV. Even more interesting, perhaps he has a connection with Packie McReary. I don't know if this has been discussed yet, but do you remember in the credits at the end of BoGT it shows Packie getting out of taxi at the airport. and the very last scene in the credits shows a passenger jet taking off. Maybe Packie headed to San Andreas and Los Santos like what Michael did and maybe he will be the one that shows up in V from IV. Maybe he helps out during a heist.

Trailer #2 is out and now they have a lot more information that we take in and analysis from the release of this new trailer we can now predict more of what to expect in GTAV when it comes out. We already know that Trevor has used a gas can to light a truck on fire from the Game Informer cover article. Now that Trailer #2 is out, we saw that Trevor is also using more fire to cause havoc by throwing a Molotov and the next scene a house blowing up. Now, from my understanding a molotov can't blow up a house like that without a fuel already in the house. perhaps he doused the house in gasoline before throwing the molotov in? In another scene we also saw a Rottweiler running in front of a car power sliding and also the same dog (I assume) jumping over the hood of a car. I am presuming this is "Chop", the dog Franklin has on a chain on one of the sides of the pre-order posters. So perhaps this dog showed in the trailer might be Franklins dog, Chop since they are both Rottweilers. This is just an assumption and my guess. Now with these two pieces of info, maybe each character has their own special abilities. Trevor has the ability to use a gas can to cause arson and ignite property, areas (forest fires perhaps, which was announced I believed) and also people. And Franklin can use Chop as a weapon, maybe he uses Chop as protection or something to that sort. So if your playing as Trevor you can cycle through his inventory or open up an option to use his special ability and pull out a gas can and dose things and then ignite them. And if you're playing as Franklin, you can choose an option to call Chop or "activate him" and maybe he follows Franklin around protecting him. So if someone attacks Franklin, Chop comes to his defense and attacks the attacker. Or maybe you can target pedestrians, or enemies and have Chop attack them. I still don't know what Michaels possible special ability is, I haven't seen any connection with him between anything that can lead to a special ability. What do you guys think? Do you think this is possible? if so, what do you think Michaels special ability will be?
