I kinda wish they'd get away from NY, SoCal, SoFlo. I wanna see like the Midwest. Give me a GTA set in prohibition, and let me run booze from Toronto thru Detroit, Chicago, Milwaukee. Underground speakeasies, tommy guns, WW1 veterans, freaky Christian cults.

Or DC area, with all kinds of corrupt politicians, or Texas with oil magnates, border patrol, and drug cartels. The deep south with Old Money, militias, confederate diehards.

NY, SoCal, SoFlo.

These are the only American places that are actually cities. They had to condense Miami just so they could make it seem like an urban environment and not just a big suburb.

Chicago is a good shout, though.

Chicago is just the most obvious omission, but if Las Vegas gets to be a city, Detroit has got that beat by a mile

there's more places named in manhunt, bully and ye olde 2d gta games, i think one of them is fake chicago.

They mention Carcer curry in GTA 3. I'm annoyed we've never seen that. Maybe that's fake Chicago

Give me a GTA set in prohibition

Mafia games...

Isn't Mafia more like Godfather type stuff?

Yeah I guess, it's like a Mafia drama. The first one (Definitive Edition is excellent ) has some prohibition era stuff where you smuggle some alcohol.
