And one has a played out back story
Game Informerjust revealedGrand Theft Auto Vwill feature three protagonists, including the series’ old standby gangster with a troubled past.
A newGrand Theft Auto, a new retired gangster protagonist that is hard to sympathize with.GTAVwill star a retired East Cost gangster who moves to Los Santos (GTA’srendition of Lalaland), seeking a fresh start, according to UK magazine ShortList’s feature on the game.
This yet-to-be-named protagonist is — you guessed it — drawn back to the mob. Sure sounds like Rockstar is making one of thoseGTAgames. There is no arguing that an ex-mob character makes a good fit for this series, but part of me was really hoping for something closer toBreaking Bad‘s Walter White. A good character with good intentions that makes some bad decisions and follows them with worse ones. Though, having an older, world-weary character could make for an interesting twist on a familiar formula, albeit one that may mirror Rockstar’s ownMax Payne 3.
Speaking of sticking to its guns, Rockstar isrecasting rapper The Game, possibly returning to his role asGTA: San Andreascharacter Mark “B-Dup” Wayne. Stay tuned as we drop details on the other two characters and all thingsGTAV, when we get our hands on the 18-page feature in this month’s Game Informer.
