I got to thinking, and concluded that if they don't go outside of this country that Seattle, Tacoma, and Portland may be the only cities left worth doing. I mean, think about it, GTA: PacWest. Seattle has the marijuana trade, Tacoma is notorious in Washington state for police corruption and organized crime, and Portland has hippies, who are paranoid and make for interesting conflict. Obviously PacWest city would be modeled after Seattle, but they could do a SanAndreas thing and have Tacoma, Spokane and Portland in the mix too. What do you think would be good region inside this country if they chose a new one?

If they're doing that region you have to include Vancouver. Our gangs/crime/drug trade put Seattle/Portland to shame. Especially right now, there's a huge gang war going on. My taxi had to take a detour around a double murder on the street last night. Did I sound proud of that? :/

I'm also from Vancouver, and it would be intresting.

Regarding the "Gang War," it's overblown...

Seattle is far from the only city left in the US to explore. Check these out:

Chicago: Long history of organized crime; huge city.

New Orleans: Very idiosyncratic; out of control police corruption and crime; interesting groups of people all convened in the same place.

Boston: Again, a very idiosyncratic city. No other place in the country like it. Not as much crime as, say, New Orleans, but has mob activity... both Italian/Sicilian families and, of course, the Winter Hill gang. The Winter Hill gang itself writes it's own story, with their co-mingling with FBI agents and whatnot. I mean, the movie The Departed was pretty much a retelling of that story.

Detroit: Nuff said.

Various cities in Texas, particularly San Antonio, which itself is a very cool and idiosyncratic city would be decent. You could even take it to St Louis or whatever.

I've even had that idea for a long time now. I may have even put it in other forums.

Although I don't like the term PacWest, the locale is awesome. They might not want to compete with the open world Northwest Alan Wake, though.

pacwest? LOLz.


Atlanta ftw.





Seriously though, the whole westcoast thing is done with. We already had SA. There's still the midwest and the south to explore.

I know Im asking for alot, but how about a GTA with like 10 cities you could travel to by train or plane, located all over the US? Oh and to the TC, if you really want a game set in PacWest, Im pretty Alan Wake is going to be set their. Might want to double check, but Im pretty certain.

The White house or monument maybe you couldn't get near but walk by the black gates. I mean they are sticking the Statue of Liberty and Empire State building in GTA4.

I'd love to see Boston or the PacWest idea TC had was cool. Soundtrack by Blue Scholars. Boston, Baltimore, and D.C. would be an interesting trio as well.
