Protagonist Predictions?
x_grandtheftliberty_x replied to Rayge's topic in GTA 5 Pre-Release Discussion (Closed)
This has been a debate brought by many people since the announcement of GTA V's development - Who is the protagonist? Here are the following theories that people have made up about the protagonist - Tommy Vercetti: a comeback from Vice City? Whilst I was browsing the videos of YouTube one day, I found a video called 'GTA V Possible Protagonist?' which can be accessed on the following link. On the video's description, it says that - I thought that this is impossible so I did some more research about this and eventually I found out information from IGN's article - http://uk.ps3.ign.com/articles/121/1211366p1.html There are similarities between the unconfirmed protagonist and Tommy. They both have a strong resemblance in facial features and hair - despite the fact the images are based on different decades. It also follows through with the time theory - Tommy is thirty-five during the events of Vice City and the protagonist looks older than Tommy - presumably around his mid/late 50's to early 60's. In addition to this, here are two videos - the official trailer from Vice City and the recently-released GTA V trailer. Please look out for the blue car flying over a bump at 00:20 and a red sports car at 00:31. These cars both appear in the GTA V trailer. <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/MpmDawqOfqs?feature=player_embedded" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Now watch the cars at 00:49 and 1:05 marks. <object style="height: 390px; width: 640px"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkkoHAzjnUs?version=3&feature=player_detailpage"><param'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkkoHAzjnUs?version=3&feature=player_detailpage"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkkoHAzjnUs?version=3&feature=player_detailpage" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="640" height="360"></object> However, there are some disadvantages to this theory. The voice in GTA V's trailer is not Ray Liotta, as said in the article from IGN. Also, there is no theory of how Tommy managed to make his way to Los Santos as his fate is unknown - (why would he want to move out of his luxurious mansion in Starfish Island to move into Los Santos anyway?). This is the first theory. Claude: has he returned? Another theory of the protagonist's identity spoken by some people is Claude from GTA III. This is probably the weakest theory as there are many disadvantages to prove that this theory is fake. The protagonist in the trailer can speak but Claude has never spoke since he is mute and has always been so in the two games he's made an appearance in. Also, the trailer protagonist speaks out about having a wife and kids. This is not known for Claude as he was betrayed by Catalina during the beginning events of GTA III but he had a close relationship with Maria Latore, Salvatore Leone's wife. But the final mission in GTA III, Claude uses a gun to either kill Maria or silence her. Their relationship status is proven unknown and I think kids are out of the question for Claude. And just like Tommy, there is no proof to back up the story of Claude getting to Los Santos. So this might be just another theory. However, there is an advantage where in the trailer, the protagonist speaks out about living a crime life in the past. This is an advantage for all characters though as each and every one of them has lived crime so there is an unlikely chance that Claude will be the protagonist of GTA V. Or will there be a new character introduced? To me this is the most certain theory to me. I reckon that a new character will be introduced. If we look at the timeline of all the game eras of GTA, different characters have been introduced - as we know that there has never been a character who's appeared as the protagonist in more than one game. So there may be a new, fresh protagonist. In the trailer, he said he wanted to move into Los Santos for the weather, considering the fact that Los Santos will have nice weather in GTA V. He also wanted to leave a life of crime behind and be a family man - wanting his kids to be like the kids on TV. However it's not long before he starts getting into crime again, as he can be seen robbing a jewellery store with other men disguised as pest control. This is in the same style as GTA IV as Niko robs a bank with Packie McReary and two other men. Many items, both new and seen before are seen in the trailer. All these things might be playable in GTA V, however this has not yet been confirmed. What theory do you believe? Or do you have another theory? If so, please comment below. You are free to post your own theory and say what you think. -
Bring back car personalisation but this time we could actually put patterns on it like stars and flames so the cars would look trendier, More chances to be able to get rich quick, And finally - keep the cell phone like in GTA IV and there should be a system where we can get notified on when appointments are due that we've set, where and what weapons we can purchase (like in GTA III but not on the pager) and when missions are available and where we have to go to load up the mission. That is all for me
