Firefly Island: Difference between revisions

Liberty City's Firefly Island is the equivalent to New York's [[wikipedia:Coney Island|Coney Island]]. At least four rides in the park draw inspiration from real life Coney Park rides. Coney Park's Wonder Wheel Ferris wheel is recreated as the Liberty Eye, [[wp:Dante's Inferno (ride)|Dante's Inferno]] appears as the Corpse Ride, [[wp:The Cyclone|The Cyclone]] roller coaster serves as the basis of the [[Screamer]], and an unnamed tower based on the [[wp:Parachute Jump|Parachute Jump]] is located to the western edge of the fairground.

Despite all the speculations and predictions of where [[GTA V]] would take place, [[Rockstar]] put the answer right under our noses in GTA IV. In the Firefly Island Amusement Park, located quite near the gold course mentioned below, there are two rides with backdrops of exact images which are in the end of the GTA V Trailer. The rides are adjacent to each other, one featuring the [[Vinewood]] Sign and the [[Los Santos]] skyline, as well as a jet, most likely the [[Shamal]]. The other features palm trees on a purple background. These pictures may suggest that GTA V has been in production since the release of GTA IV, or at least the location of the future game was known.
