Massive GTA V Leak: Characters

Revolt-Tech.com Writes:

The post has been put out for a private casting notice by Take-Two, the owner of the Grand Theft Auto Franchise. Here is a screencap of the page:

[writersblock]

Thats awesome. The child molester character is kind of weird, but kind of what I would expect from rockstar humor

[RememberThe357]

Hopefully we'll be able to kill him in the game.

But these characters are totally Rockstar characters. I don't think anyone else would have the balls to cast these kinds of characters. Thats gotta be one of the reasons I love their games; they cross every line they can find and then laugh about it.

[DaTruth]

Hopefully we get to take our time and kill him slow and torturous! Just mowing him down with a machine gun wouldn't suffice!

This would be a good time to bring back the chainsaw from Vice City!

[MintBerryCrunch]

Jose-A white creepy man

i guess they would be pushing it if he was hispanic

/s

[Joni-Ice]

@ RememberThe357.....The dude who disagreed with you is a child molester. He must felt some type of way.

[BISHOP-BRASIL]

@DaTruth

Chainsaw was too quick, the only thing that cross my mind is the finger cutting scene on Heavy Rain - time limit + other body parts interaction + gasoline.

[Dee_91]

this sounds like san andreas :D
not many conspiracy theorist in vice city
sound like desert type characters

[MaxXAttaxX]

What are you saying?
Hispanic people can't be white?

[I_find_it_funny]

so can't wait

[HappyGaming]

Wait so GTA V may have 10-15 year old children in it?
Wow they are really pushing it now but I love it when they do that.

[acky1]

I reckon these are just radio show characters...still don't think we'll be allowed to run over children or blast a shotgun in their faces.

[QuodEratDemonstrandm]

The child molester had a radio show in GTA:SA. This is for a new GTA. Now I wonder where in the development process do the studios start looking for voice actors? Early? Late?

[Raendom]

He already exists in San Andreas.

[Queefy_B]

This game has alot to prove because 4 was a big letdown.
@below
Well thats your opinion and im not gonna disagree with you or anything but i know ALOT of people including myself who loved every gta up until 4 and i DESPISED 4 i really did, i must have played it for 30mins tops.
@reddead i agree

[Kon]

No it wasn't.

[RedDead]

It was to me aswell so your not alone. I felt all GTA's since 3 were better.

[ThanatosDMC]

Kon probably never played VC or SA. Why cant i fly a jumbo jet and crash it wherever i want? CJ sky diving was awesome.

[No Way]

Maybe you should try to play more than 30 minutes of it ..
I agree it wasn't no SA or VC, but it had it's moments.

[FinalSpartan]

no it wasn't. I played all GTAs aswell whats your point? Your opinion no one cares about you. Alot of people enjoyed it and done great in reviews.

[ReservoirDog316]

A lot of people hate popular stuff.

[SmokeyMcBear]

whatever they do... just get rid of the god damn phone, and dont have people fing call me.. i hated that!

[ChineseDemocracy]

Wasn't necessarily a letdown; it just didn't stand up to all the hype and expectations it had generated.

[Highlife]

"no it wasn't. I played all GTAs aswell whats your point? Your opinion no one cares about you. Alot of people enjoyed it and done great in reviews."

He is just saying that it was a let down for him. He is not attacking you or stating a fact you need to relax take a deep breath life will be ok.

[Redempteur]

"i really did, i must have played it for 30mins tops. "

Since when you can understand and judge a GTA in 30 minutes ???. roman car shop wasn't even in flames you have already turn off the game and you saw nothing .

[Dee_91]

just because you cant do things you could do in SA or vice city dont make the game bad
just not as good

[cb4g]

Well, for me it was a bit of a letdown but it wasn't shyte by any means.

Coming off high expectations from Vice City and San Andreas I really felt IV was lacking in fun. I've probably played VC and SA over 5 times each but I've found no desire to play IV again. The expansions are a little better as they have some of the same fun factor from the previous games.

[Sameh]

You played it for 30 minutes and concluded that it sucks? That's a bit stupid. Since when does a GTA game get amazingly good in the first 30 minutes? Normally you're just driving around, and it's the exact same in GTA IV.

[Johandevries]

''Been saving them for a rrrainy day!''

[CoLD FiRE]

I was disappointed with GTA IV too. I played about 12 hours of it (including both free roaming and some missions) and still couldn't get into it. It just wasn't fun and I really hated how you had to drive all the way (or take a cab)to restart a mission when you failed.

[Mmmkay]

you played a 30 hour game for 30 mins at most and you hate it.... yeah... good going there..

[Tikicobra]

I agree with you. I rented the game a few years after it came out and was extremely disappointed after all the rave reviews.

[ThanatosDMC]

^I liked taking the cab to just redo the mission... of course, i kill the taxi driver to get my money back.

[beastgamer]

What if this isn't GTA, What if its Agent?
Just saying.

[RioKing]

they reference gta 4 in the article. How could agent tie in with gta4?

[Lykon]

I wonder if agent will be a NGP exclusive. that would be interesting. re gta V i hope that rockstar learn from the mistakes of gta iv , lets face it whatever your opinion on gta iv and whatever the reviews said , it certainly disappointed a significant percentage of fans of san andreas/vice city myself included.

[ilikestuff]

sounds awesome, the characters sound like they are from the 60s or 70s but the creeper guys story seems to be set a few years ago

[Hanif-876]

If those cast roles are anything to go by, then it won't be the new realistic GTA we've grown to love :-(

IF GTA V IS ANYTHING LIKE SAINTS ROW THEN I'M NOT BUYING!

[TheMysterion]

Yes finally! Someone who loved the seriousness! All these little kida want is sa gameplay. Go play sa then. I hope rockstar dosnt listen to them like all the other developpers have and kill gta

[No Way]

I'd prefer them to go the route of VC rather than SA or GTA5.

[Zydake]

aw man my name's Jose..

[showtimefolks]

one would think we would see something soon maybe in may issue of gameinformer, their editor in chief said there is a huge sequel release on their cover in may issue

combine VC and SA and make one huge world and add more and make sure its about fun and have the rpg elements of SA

with saint's row 3 coming in fall of 2011 we will see i am a GTA fan-boy always will be but Sr2 was a lot more fun and that was one thing which was missing from GTA4

was it great 10/10 yes for what it was aiming for it was 10/10 but was it a little bit boring with not a lot to buy and no huge planes. RS its a game no one cares if we crash huge planes into buildings in a video game(but i do understand why because of 9/11 out of respect)

[Kurisu]

No GTA games have ever had Children in them, have they? So this "20-15 year old boy" is going to be the ONLY child in the city!

[tacosRcool]

I hope we don't play as the child molester

[solidt12]

I doubt Rockstar is that stupid. Who would buy it.

[kyl277]

Sounds like GTA alright though I am looking forward to SR3 more for silly, open world fun.

[Big_L]

Their open world "formula" didnt work for me. The amount of work and money that goes into GTA is amazing. I get a lot more hyped for it that most other games

[metsgaming]

im also looking forward to sants row 3 more, but i will give rockstar one more chance to make a good game.

[No Way]

Uhmm.. I'm looking forward to both of them more.
They both have their pros and cons, and what not.
But, as far as Saints Row, it continues the story.
Which would be the main reason, I'd want it more.
GTA is typically different characters & settings..

[Big_L]

*EXITE*

That link with James Pedeaston almost confirmed this has something to do with GTA. Announcement coming soon?

yesssss!

[Shaman]

Oh so we are going back to VC/SA fun times?Great news!

[jay2]

I'm excited, but the $hi!'s going to hit the fan with the way the story lines shaping up :(.

[Big_L]

This looks more like a "fun" story than GTA 4. This is the kind of storyline and characters you'd find in San Andreas

[Urrakia34]

@jay2-What makes you say that? Rockstar is no stranger to controversy and personally I hope they go all out with the next installment of GTA. I long for those days of ridiculous characters and over the top missions.......

[HeavenlySnipes]

Sounds somethnig like San Andreas with the completely over the top characters. HURRAH

[ThatEnglishDude]

New GTA with LA Noire engine would be awesome!

[DanSolo]

I'm pretty sure LA Noire is the same engine used for GTA4 and Red Dead Redemption mate!

I doubt we will see a new games engine from them until the next gen... just updated versions of the same one!

[ThatEnglishDude]

The difference is outstanding between the games, and not just the facial mocap either.

[LoneWanderer09]

Looking forward to GTA V

[Bathyj]

I'd forego the next GTA to have a Manhunt 3.

[RioKing]

Same here...I'd personally like both, but I had sooo much fun with the first manhunt.

[Mista T]

oh god yes, sounds amazing lol

[jbiz320]

hahaaa.. this is awesome.. I guess that means we'll be seeing this game sometime in the spring of 2012, going by the LA Noire timeline. They hired for voice casting around this same time last year.. Im stoked.

[Oldman100]

Im going to fart in my belly button if this turns out to be better than san andreas.

[news4geeks]

lol! how do you do that?

[RioKing]

It won't, nothing will ever beat san andreas? If it does, sh*t...I'll fart in my belly button too!!

[mightyboot]

The characters really seem over the top but it really needs GORE ala Gears of War in this one and then picking up an AA-12 with explosive shells (like that 1 in The Expendables movie) and blast an entire gang in a few seconds turning them into pieces or just pick a katana sword and remake Kill Bill :D

[Mmmkay]

i thought the game was about stealing cars....

[mightyboot]

yes...so?

[Lirky]

Guess what i found...

Verdant Bluffs was in that link to This ARTICLE i repeat that its in the link to this ARTICLE -

http://www.google.com/image...

I google imaged verdant bluffs = SAN ANDREAS will be the location of gran theft auto V.

[viperman240]

Holy crap nice find, your right xD

http://gta.wikia.com/Verdan...

GTA5 in SA woooo

[cb4g]

Oh man, if Rockstar can replicate San Andreas like they did with Liberty City in GTA IV that would be amazing!

[StarScream4Ever]

I want to believe, but I'll wait til an official announcement.

[gypsygib]

Characters seem to be on the road to humour

[Darth Stewie]

Hope it is as good as San Andreas. BTW where is San Andreas Stories Rockstar?

[FrigidDARKNESS]

nasty little secret here Agent for the [s3 is really GTAV.

[TXIDarkAvenger]

I find it strange that GTA 5 would have a 10-15 year old boy. Like in previous GTA's there aren't any kids....

[RioKing]

It's Bully 2 thats why, haha just kidding. I hope..

[TXIDarkAvenger]

I thought that too. I don't think this game is GTA5. Either Bully 2 or an original title.

[AGuyWithAPlan]

I thinks it pretty sick in good way lol

[Freddy_Millz1]

Im not going to bash GTA IV too bad. We all went in expecting infinite possibilities and were let down because we expected the world on a platinum plater. I look at IV simply as the devs were saying, "This is what we can do on a new console, lets test the limits and go from there."

The cant get worse from here. Even if you hated IV with a passion, your gonna get V launch day. Its only right.

[Freddy_Millz1]

P.S...That list of characters are for ppl who will be calling in to a radio station. You may or may not run into some on the streets it seems.

[CaptainPunch]

I'd laugh if this turned out to be Bully 2

[DanSolo]

Bully 2 would be awesome, I enjoyed that game... although it was called "Canis Canem Edit" here!

lol and to be honest although I thought the reasons for changing the name were dumb.... I preferred the new Latin name as it summed up the game better than Bully.

It was a good game and I can only imagine how well a new one could be done now!

[SSKILLZ]

Lol I wonder if this is for the radio station recordings , rockstar comes out with some funny shit like the "gun safety " or "cheto de buff". Lmao

[iNFAMOUZ1]

mann just the name "grand theft auto" screams DAY 1 in my ear, you dont even need to finish the sentence grand thef...DAY 1!!!!!!!!! lol.
But in all seriousness this is great news, sounds like the gta i've been waiting for, and judging from the descriptive characters, it'll be somewhere between hollywood & san andreas??? that makes for a killer game. Don't mess this up guys.

[TheTruth89]

why gta 5? i mean... it sound credible, but it can be about agent too.

[Freddy_Millz1]

because said *child molester* was in IV already. Seems like he's moving around the country.

[Pintheshadows]

That makes sense in a horrific way.

[EliteDave93]

Cant wait for an official announce!

[Thecraft1989]

April 1st on Friday. I would like this to real but to much of a coincidence.

[Johandevries]

Sensationalist stories ftl

[Lucreto]

I hpe it is fake it would be a huge leap backwards for the series. I certainly won't be getting it then.

[RioKing]

ok? so don't then. You're an idiotic for judging a game based on 3-5 character descriptions.

[fuzion17c]

Could be AGENT characters...

[AGuyWithAPlan]

A child molester who has been in San Andreas.

For sure it is GTAV.

[Prcko]

Rofl guys
Rockstar preparing some fun April fool day announcment

[Mr PS360]

I sure hope it's similar to San Andreas. I really liked the CJ story.

[DanSolo]

To be honest although a new GTA would be cool, especially if done right.... I don't find myself getting all excited about it anymore.... I am preferring the new direction they have been going with games like Red Dead and LA Noire!

That said though.... a new GTA could quite easily come out that just blows everyone away and is awesome.... it's just I will not be excited for the game until I see it running as unless they add in some cool new features it will just be more of the same. That's cool, but not something that I find particularly thrilling!

[rmatott]

um games like Red Dead? isn't that game basically GTA western?

playing Red Dead (top 5 favorite game), it made me even more excited for a new GTA, i mean basically reskinning RDR with GTA would have been good enough for me, anything on top of that is gravy!

[DanSolo]

What I mean is I have played multiple games (the GTA's) that are basically the same premise...

Be a criminal, steal cars, ect.

But with Red Dead and LA Noire they are taking the same kind of formula, changing it up a bit and then doing something different with it.

It was a nice change to be the Cowboy, and it will be a nice change to be a Cop who is solving crimes rather than committing them!
And to be honest I just don't find the idea of doing the same thing again in another GTA that exciting....

But it is Rockstar so maybe they will pull something out of the bag that is amazing.... it's just controversial storylines and characters, and playing as the bad guy doesn't do the job for me personally any more!

However I will wait to see the game when it is out and then decide!

[SQWERCH]

This is for AGENT not GTA 5

[axerated]

this was pretty much stated last week in the article that said the dude from problem child and aladdin had been cast, it had these characters and a few more listed and described, sounds like a twisted line up, and theres gonna be a kid in it? first time in a gta game, if indeed thats what this is...

[Kingdom Come]

Rockstar are truely fantastic Developers, GTA IV, whilst Critically Acclaimed, is still in my eye's underrated. With the desiscion to tone-down the game for a more naturalistic approach recieving heavy critisism from the gaming community, I however found GTA IV to be just as worthy of praise if not more so than San Andreas, the world felt so... alive. The binmen in the early hours of the morning grasping on to the back of the trucks being driven throuh the city, the citizens of Liberty City walking and talking, holding newspapers over their head in the rain, starting fights with one another when clipped by a passing car.

GTA V will no doubt, and hopefully, follow on from GTA IV's realistic approach and hopefully with several new additions to the gameplay, making for an even stronger astmosphere and experience. One small adition I want to see, but don't consider it entirely necessary, is the opportunity to take human shields. With Civilians being one of the games key-features (Adding to the realism of the world), it would be great to see Cop's reactions to hostage situations or how combat shifts to a new level with them begining to negotiate rather than shoot. Hearing the civilian plea and this moment of "should I or shouldn't I release them?", I'm sure Rockstar of all developers can give that tension and vibe to a game.

Also, the characters of IV were brilliant and I've heard several rumours of V's Lead character being a bent Cop, of which would be fantastic as it would provide a gritty, dark look in to the world of both Justice and crime and perhaps give you more choice as to how the game plays with you constantly choosing how to deal with situations. For instance, you find someone attempting to steal a car, you can arrest them and get respect in the office, or, ask if the guy has drugs and if so you let him go if he hands them over, then, with the drugs in hand, you can pass them to the police as confescated goods or sell them to earn yourself some extra cash, or, take them.

Do it Rockstar, what ever approach you take with GTA V, we all know it'll be a winner for sure.

[thoract]

This is an April Fools joke, I bet.

[Frulond]

um...

[x2xp]

yah this is a rockstar game no doubt there a child molesting criminal thats a new one usually in games your the one who catches that kind of guy but its a new twist i might buy the game to get him run over by a train a couple of times then ill go by the story line i wonder what rockstar cooked up for us in this game.

[rmatott]

these sound like mostly radio talk on GTA games, like an add for a youth movement that want to be able drink booze. i doubt you would see the kid actually in the game, just the voice. i believe that the ped has already been in the game

[Satisfaktion-4u]

Lame characters, not the best profile of personalities from them..

[andron]

How come people think there will be a GTAV anytime soon?

Look at GTAs history. Last gen era GTA3 came, and was followed by Vice City and San Andreas.

This gen GTAIV have been released. And then the DLC episodes. You could can't really count them as full releases like Vice City and San Andreas.

The next GTA game will probably be an expansion of the GTAIV universe in a new location like they have done before.

I think there there won't be a GTAV until next-gen...

[rmatott]

thats crazy talk son, VC and SA were both full on games, so that makes three on the last-gen, by my count we have maybe 1.5 on current gen, meaning we will see GTA 5 (or whatever you want to call it) along with 1-3 DLC to finish off this current gen

edit :also didnt even count LBCS or VCS on the last gen

[andron]

Well I didn't say there wouldn't be any more GTA games this gen, I do think there will be one maybe next year or so.

My point is that I don't think they'll call it GTAV. Just like Vice City wasn't called GTAIV...

[DanSolo]

I think what he means is the title won't be GTA "5"....

Like you had:
GTA3 > Vice City > San Andreas

Before going to...

GTA4 > DLC but no "new" games on same engine!

I'm not saying he is right.... just pointing out what his point is. As alot of people thought Vice City was GTA4 and San Andreas was GTA5...
But they were just extra games on the GTA3 engine....
