TreeFitty 2631 Report post Posted November 4, 2012 but the actual name Vespucci Canals most likely corresponds to Venice. Of course but that's the foreground. With everything from real life squashed together things are much more close in LS than LA which is why Koreatown is right down the road from Venice in GTA V. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will be interesting to see how long the version of Venice Blvd runs in the game. It is surprisingingly long in real life. Same for Willshire and La Brea, will be cool to see. Squashed in the GTA universe.... I remember people asking me after playing §an Andreas, "Can you really drive from SF to LA in a few hours?" L0L. Back then I held the record amongst friends at around 6.5 hours real time, coastal less traffic. Usually it seems a whole day around 8 hours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TreeFitty 2631 Report post Posted November 4, 2012 Interesting information about the Santa Monica Pier is interesting: Santa Monica has had several piers over the years, however the current Santa Monica Pier is actually two adjoining piers that long had separate owners. The long, narrow Municipal Pier opened September 9, 1909, primarily to carry sewer pipes beyond the breakers, and had no amenities. The short, wide adjoining Pleasure Pier to the south, a.k.a. Newcomb Pier, was built in 1916 by Charles I. D. Looff and his son Arthur, amusement park pioneers. http://en.wikipedia....nta_Monica_Pier So maybe Rockstar wanted to either: use an old/former name of the Santa Monica Pier and decided to change it completely or they will use both names to represent the two conjoined piers. I think they will stick with Del Perro Pier for the whole thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TreeFitty 2631 Report post Posted November 5, 2012 I wonder how the view finders relate to the game.... LA is a tourist area so I would expect novelty things like these. As we can see, the picture viewers are like postcards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DuPz0r 5361 Report post Posted November 5, 2012 Hmm, the view-finder could be a collectable in game, like the oysters, horseshoes, photo points in SA etc... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bronson 702 Report post Posted November 5, 2012 That's what i was thinking too. Maybe there are hidden viewfinder's at iconic places on the map. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DuPz0r 5361 Report post Posted November 5, 2012 I have a small hunch on a couple of the concept characters. Remember the character casting we may have got last year, at least two of them sort of fit the bill imo. Jose (30-40 Male United States) A white creepy man who thinks that technology is a poison against the wilderness. Samantha (20-25 Female United States) A young female obsessed with sex parties, always dreaming of being a Hollywood celebrity. Just a hunch, what do you guys think? http://www.igta5.com/possible-gta-5-character-details-leaked 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TreeFitty 2631 Report post Posted November 5, 2012 First one maybe. Second one is kind of generic. Maybe Game Informer will fill in some details about each artwork. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DuPz0r 5361 Report post Posted November 5, 2012 Yeah hopefully. They may only end up being radio voices or something, but i just read the article and instantly put their faces to the characters on he concepts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
