azn Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 I was examining some pics the other day and noticed the 2 towers that reside next to the World Trade Center site. It's those 2 towers that have a circular roof and the other one has a triangular rooftop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hansui Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 yeah, thats a nice find, do you think theres something R* inserted on the site of World Trade Center? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azn Posted February 24, 2008 Author Share Posted February 24, 2008 They could make the memorial they're planning to make in real life instead of having an empty block? I hope they actually put the Twin Towers in IV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hansui Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 maybe an easter egg for Twin Towers, since GTA IV is set on 2007 or 2008... theres no Twin Towers at that time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azn Posted February 24, 2008 Author Share Posted February 24, 2008 But we don't even know if the site is actually in IV. So anyone's guess is as good as mine at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wheelman101 Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 They could make the memorial they're planning to make in real life instead of having an empty block?I hope they actually put the Twin Towers in IV. I think it would be bad, People died for absolutely horrifically in those towers, why would you want it in game though? I wouldn't want it in game, for 1 reason, for respect on those who have died.

Spaz The Great Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 They look nothing like the twin towers. To think that is just stupid. Not only does the game take place AFTER the towers fell, but Rockstar wouldn't be stupid enough to even parody them badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MishoM Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Yeah, just because there are two tall buildings next to each other doesn't mean its supposed to be the twin towers. To be honest, the game is already going to get enough shit from all the angry mothers, I don't think they'd add that in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonDelight Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 im looking, not seeing. what are the similarities between the buildings in the gta iv screen and the wtc picture? i dont see what your comparing in those pictures, and as far as im concerned, none of those buildings look like the world trade centers at all. even though i cant see what your seeing, it still is something a lot of people are wondering about. i however, do not think that R* would put the towers in, as it would be in very bad taste if they did.

Red_91 Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Those are not the WTC buildings, if they were put in though I would be very dissapointed but R* aren't stupid enough to put something like that in, they would get sued left right and centre.

Gerard Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 He's not saying they ARE the WTC, he's saying there are two DIFFERENT buildings where the WTC would have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swifty Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 If R* are smart (as I think they are) they won't touch the subject of the twin towers with a barge pole. For the sake of realism I'm sure they have tried to include as many of the remaining buildings from the surrounding area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tilly Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 the two circular roofs are there in real life im sure of. one is the metlife building, and the other is a hotel i think. the triangular one which i think is what your talking about, is too far back. The left picture is straight on, and the right one is from an angle. if you saw the left picture with the triangular building in the left picture, it would be behind the two pointedish shortish buildings. i believe the area where the twin towers would be is empty in the game from what i see.

blnk182fan18 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 saying people died there is no reason to not put it in the game... many people died on the beaches during d day and thats in video games... get the point... it dont matter....

Alkali64 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 (edited) I guess it kinda resembles it... Nice find man, the towers might not look the same but the others... just awesome.

Urbanoutlaw Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 It's been 6 & a half years, but people here still get fired up about the towers. It even gets to me a little, still. Full point to RD & Wheelman, it's just too volatile of a subject & they already have headaches from Jack(ass) Thompson & leftover fallout from "Hot Coffee". Remember, R* dumped the whole Darkel strand from GTA3 after 9/11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mendoza Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 well idk i mean maybe its just twin towers not THEY twin towers since they still look alike that that guy from GTA 3 who was there for the purpose of killin kids yet they removed him (thank god for that)at a certain point there is a line even for great game makers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerard Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Can any of you read? This topic is NOT about "is this the WTC" - stop saying R* would be silly to put it in. They came down in 2001, the game is set in 2008, they simply are not going to be in the game. The buildings in the screenshot are NEXT to where the WTC would be if it was in the game, quite clearly they aren't. Nobody is suggesting that those buildings are the twin towers, just that they are nearby. This topic IS about "what do you think SHOULD be where the WTC 'was'" or "what do you think R* have put at Ground Zero" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGunslinger Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I doubt there will be any references to 911, be it a memorial site or the actual towers. It just to much of a touchy subject. And besides, Liberty City is only based on NYC, it not an exact copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to agree, its still way to touchy for people, and it would be downright stupid if they were to do so, however, think about this, maybe it will be a construction site??? meh nevermind, I think people would assume it was the WTC site.....y its not happening Edited February 26, 2008 by x240xdrifter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA Don Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I don't think it looks like the WTC, it's more curved. Where does it say what could be put in place of that? All I saw on the first post was, "I was examining some pics the other day and noticed the 2 towers that reside next to the World Trade Center site. It's those 2 towers that have a circular roof and the other one has a triangular rooftop." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
