you would be surprised how many people would know what youre talking about if you mentioned the space needle. Besides you didnt mantion any kind of ladmark in maimi which there isnt really but the Vice City game worked didnt it? Also, what about the cities gta has already made where they didnt even use the ladmarks that they could have. Like for example, do you actually see a statue of liberty in Liberty City?

Well as you may know Grand Theft auto games arent played in first person mode. Well.. i mean it is first person but its not like youre seeing right out of their eyes, your view is from behind your character so YOU would still be able to see. Plus if you remember Woozie isnt just any blind guy. He raced cars and had impeccable aim with his shooting. He was blessed with extremely good fortune as they say. c'mon use your imagination.

you know i just noticed something since going through san andreas again. You'll probably all be like duh and think i'm really slow but arent Dwayne and Jethro the guys in san fierro the same two kids from the scene in the boatyard in Vice City?

In all the games you meet interesting people to work for and befriend (or become enemies with). You know that in the new gta game for psp you play Toni Cipriani, a guy you worked for in gta3. If you could pick any side character from a former gta game to make as your main character in a new gta game who would it be? I have a couple.. One would be Woozie, just because it would be interesting to play a blind guy. Or I would pick Caesar or 8 Ball.

Seattle has the Space needle which is a very well known landmark.

well i have been a bit vague about my seattle idea but i do have a ton of ideas, even a bit of a story written (so i have alot of time on my hands). When I first came up with the seattle idea it was before SA came out so i wanted to have it based in the early 90's when grunge was exploding out of seattle and there could be an alternative rock station and stuff like that. But then they made San Andreas based in the early 90's so who knows if having two games set at the same time would be a good idea.....But regardless of the time setting my scenareo would be like a White sort of punk rock tweaker kid who finally gets clean and wants to start a real life but with his drug history and arrests no one will give him a real job so he turns to crime and heads east to liberty city to get in with a mob family. He gets hired but is sent right back home where his services will be more needed. And my map idea is far more than just seattle it's more the same type of thing as SA. It involves 3 of the bigger cities in Washington Seattle, Tacoma, and Olympia. And in between are small white trash redneck biggot towns full of hillbillies to make fun of, and also vast forests and mountain ranges. Also there are so many hunting obsessed rednecks up here so i was thinking it would be a cool idea to introduce wildlife like deer and elk and stuff and also introduce as a weapon the Bow and Arrow and Crossbow. Shooting arrows through people would be amusing. As far as gangs go there is in real life a mob family in Tacoma called the sons of italy and in seattle there is an all female gang full of angry female supremecists. I forget what theyre called but the concept is hilarious to me. And Seattle involves all the things a gta big city should like a downtown, a financial district, and of course a chinatown. And another thing about seattle is that everyone is obsessed with coffee. Seattle is where starbucks origionated and if you ever go there you will notice that there is literally a starbucks every five feet. That could be used..you know how they have mocks of all these other real life businesses like the fast food places and Zip (the Gap). They could make one of starbucks and puth them all over the place. The state of washington is very green and has all kinds of terrain and climate variations and it would work im telling you. In my first post of this topic i was just asking a vague question i did not go into detail. But as a whole there is alot more to my idea than just simply bacause i was born there. anyway, theres a ton more ideas where this came from but this post is getting really long and you probably all think im an obsessed psycho by now so i'll go ahead and call it quits for the time being. Peace.

there is a mob family in seattle which i forget the name of. But I dont know...the more i think about it the more i realize the seattle isnt quite as universally well known as say new york or miami so it probably wouldnt work. I think i just do alittle too much creative daydreaming. So now that i think about it a seattle based gta game would probably only be cool for people who are from seattle or familiar with it. Maybe I can convince rockstar games to just make one specially for me..... yeah right Yes i realize that. My bad. Hence the mindreading comment.

Well i was thinking more in terms of the entire state of washington which would contain plenty of landscape and terrain variety. But i guess no one can read my mind so.....

One thing i'd like to add is that i realize there are way more suitable forums for this topic to have been posted in. I wasn't thinking sorry.

Do you think that all the gta stories are already written and just waiting to be put into game form? Or do you think they just dream them up as soon as they decide to make another game? Like for example did they already know Claude was from San Andreas when they made GTA3? Or did they just think when they were making San Andreas, "hey i know, lets have claude make an apperance in this one, and we'll say he was origionally from this place that will be cool." You know how like Gearge Lucas already had all the star wars stories written and tied together before he made the films. Thats the kind of thing i'm talking about.

The longest ive flown the dodo in gta3 for is 3 seconds. it seems impossible to me. I've tried at least ten times. Every time....3 seconds.

Ok, I have been all the way through this game once before and beat the whole story. But now i am doing it over again and i can not for the life of me even come close to beating the stupid destroy the cartel coffee stand mission and it's pissing me off. I dont even remember how i beat it the first time around. Anyway, does anyone have any pointers of the best way to beat this next to impossible mission cause i'm stuck. There are too many stands and not near enough time.

I just realized that someone pretty much already did this topic. So i'm sorry. I'm an idiot!

I have great ideas for a gta game based in seattle but regardless of where they have it, I think they should make one more present day so that we have at least one game that is set after GTA3. And i also think they should make one based in the 70's just because well.....why not? They havent yet. Plus i was thinking about return characters and how it would be cool to like see a younger version of the Truth in a 70's based game. Plus it could be at the time in the 70's when Tommy Vercetti first got arrested and sent to jail for 15 years. They could like talk about it on the news on the radio and stuff.

i have a good idea for a new weapon to bring in that hasnt been introduced yet in a gta game... The bow and arrow and crossbow. Think about it. How amusing it could be to shoot arrows into your target person. I'd imagine pressing R1 could let you aim and pull back and then hitting the circle button can fire the arrow(obviously). Also have animals running around now and then. Pets like dogs and cats, Cattle in the fields, deer and shit in the woods. And animals can be crossing the street and you can run over them

EDITED because of stupidity. Your unfriendly neighborhood Spaz.

If your idea is an entire state or a city i didnt mention then enter it in your post.

I think by the end rockstar should have made a mock version of every major city in the U.S. or more. So by the final game you should be able to go anywhere.

What do you all think of the next gta game city being based on seattle? I mean I have no idea yet what you could possibly call it for the game but i mean think about it. GTA 3's city was based on new york, then Vice City (Florida), and then San Andreas (California). I mean theyve pretty much covered three of the four corners of the U.S. so why not complete by moving up to washington. Ok granted...I'm from seattle so i'm a bit partial but the more i think about it the better it sounds. I've had tons of ideas for it.
