K9 Krew Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 (edited) Seems like the Irish mob are rising in popularity with the Departed and it's also an integral part of American gangsterism, we haven't even really seen anything Irish in-game. Gang Logo Maybe( But probly not becuase it is already a logo for the PhoenixFestival) Gang??(Already In The Warriors) Gang??(Already In The Warriors) I know all of this seems random but i think that a good irish based gang game could be fun.

jack_bauer Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 I know all of this seems random but i think that a good irish based gang game could be fun. it may be fun, but it's not gonna be as fun as italy-sicilian based mafia, that has an honor, a heritage and authentic style comparing than irish mob, as matter of fact, there's so many people who have some issues with the irish mob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K9 Krew Posted March 23, 2007 Author Share Posted March 23, 2007 yeah i guess there would be alot of hatred in the air with the whole thing that happened between britain and ireland if you don't know what happened ask someone like chris or Ps3 Player or Maybe Ciaran since they are the people i know from Britain and Ireland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alistair Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 There are Irish gangs in America? As far as I know, being a Britain, the irish "mobs" at least, the "mobs" in northern ireland, are just a bunch of hooligan terrorists. I wouldn't like to play a game where I'm a terrorist (northern ireland separatists have been responsible for many bombings of civilians in england), I think a GTA based on that would be a very very very bad idea, it'd be like making a GTA in Iraq where you play an insurgent and have to mindlessly slaughter innocent men, women and children.....not that I'm saying gangs in america are good, but at least their purpose isn't to kill civilians...it's to make money and have power.

K9 Krew Posted March 24, 2007 Author Share Posted March 24, 2007 yeah i know i suddenly relise that it would be bad idea but if you were to be like walking down the streets with a lead pipe looking all tough i think it would be great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_91 Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 I wouldn't mind an Irish gang but they can't be called the IRA or something similar because that can be classed as discrimination. PLus the IRA have closed down now anyway. But an Irish gang would be good with there base being a pub or a nightclub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alistair Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Ah don't worry, if you want that and it's set in london, you'll have exactly the same thing but you'll be a cockney in hackney! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow that's horrible man. I don't think Wu-Zi-Mu was talking about the same Irish Mob though, in America I think it's very similar to the Italian Mob. Like he said, The Departed is a perfect example of it and I'm sure there are many other movies about them. I think this is a very good idea, never the hooligan terrorists that Alistair mentioned though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K9 Krew Posted March 27, 2007 Author Share Posted March 27, 2007 yeah what happened with the IRA was terrible, with all the bombings and stuff, but has anyone seen the movie called Four Brothers i would'nt mind an Irish gang based game but shaped around that storyline.

surrealistic ArtSweet Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 don't you guys think that the irish mob will look very much alike to the getaway? i mean, if i wanted an irish mob, i'll play the getaway, if i wanted all style crimes, i'll play GTA. at some point, your right, rockstar never tried an irish mob could be work in some way, but the theme wouldn't be that interesting, don't you think?? but i know rockstar could figure a better way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTAPlayer Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Well I don't see it as something interesting you know, but it could work of course. Anyway man, R* knows what they're doing and all, I'm sure it's gonna be great no matter what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would also like to see a deeper, more explored version of the Russian Mafia. They were touched a bit in SA but not much at all. So yeah Irish Mob a bit, to try something new but not the whole game. Some ideas could be that they own a couple casinos with a them based on Shamrocks or Leprachauns with a pot of gold. Their gang colours could be green (although that would kinda look weird). Don't know what else. I guess we'll just have to wait and see... Edited March 28, 2007 by Artur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
