A unified Rockstar San Diego's universe, like Rockstar North's Manhunt and GTA 3D Universe.

I could of course bring Red Dead Redemption into this, but it's a completely different genre, setting, tone and a different time, so RDR is an independent universe.

My variants:

Vorkuta, Chita, Kyzyl, Omsk, Shakhty, Murmansk, Kizel, Karabash, Novoshakhtinsk.

What do you think?

I've completed MH1 on 100%. I first completed the game on Fetish (5,5/10) in January 2025, and then on Hardcore (7,8/10) in April of that same year. I'll be playing MH2 on 100% next, and I might even try it (including the beta build 0.01) on PSP, which I plan to buy.

How would Charlie, Lucifer, the hotel crew, Vox and the other Overlords react to this, and how would they know about it? How will this affect Alastor's reputation and how would Rosie be treated after such a shocking sensation?

Even though Rosie no longer has Alastor's soul, such a fact would still shock the entire Pentagram City.

The official icon using the cover looks pretty lazy.

p.s. You can find and download this fanmade icon on SteamGridDB.

As we know, the development of MH1 began in 1999, simultaneously with GTA 3 and later Vice City (which btw destroys the bullshit thesis that Manhunt was created as a response to criticism of GTA, so that it would seem "childish" in comparison and the media would leave it alone), when Rockstar North was DMA Design. But there are suggestions that the ideas for Manhunt predate GTA 1, sometime around 1995-96 (though this isn't certain).

We all know that the Grand Theft Auto series and the foundation upon which future installments were built were laid by David Jones and Mike Dailly. So who came up with the idea for a snuff film and Carcer City? Was Manhunt an initiative of the Houser bros and publishers (Rockstar Games/Take-Two), or was it an experiment solely by the guys from Scotland?

I WON!!!

Hypothetical release date - February 14, 2008

Why didn't Rockstar release it? They could have boosted MH2 sales.

I find this rather odd. Apparently the copy I downloaded (with version 1.0) has Hot Coffee.

I've finally completed a list of all the US cities (+some Canada cities) in GTA HD Universe. This is just a headcanon, I'm not from Rockstar. I also took most of the names from a fan project called Project Eagle (formerly Stars & Stripes). Regarding Leonida, it's also inaccurate and something may change with the release of GTA 6. I also decided to change the names of some states, but I don't think it's particularly critical.

I don't consider RDR and Bully to be part of the GTA/Manhunt lore. But in my fanon, there is a city called Bulford, which is similar to Bullworth, but not the same as the one in R* Vancouver's game. Also, I decided not to include Alaska and Hawaii.

Thanks to u/Batonsee for the map.

If only you knew how I hate when people touting their "shared universe" fanfiction as the "truth" and "canon" without even knowing what they're talking about. It would be fine if they admitted it was just their own stupid theories, but no, we're going to misinform people and impose our own lore. Seriously, this stupid theory even includes Max Payne, whose lore was invented and created by Remedy (I don’t give a shit who made the 3rd part, because that’s not the point).

Midnight Club and LA Noire always feature real life cities. RDR also has no connection to GTA lore, as it constantly mentioned real-life locations and there is not a single mention of Liberty City or the state of San Andreas (In GTA, there are instances where real cities are mentioned, but these often appear in side content, such as internet pages, because it's a minor detail when New York or California are never mentioned in the story). It's funny how some fans think that GTA 6 will have mentions or references to Saint Denis (the equivalent of New Orleans in RDR universe) or other locations, while they are 100% unaware that Cottonmouth from Manhunt 2 exists in GTA lore, which is also the equivalent of New Orleans (also partially Atlanta).

Regarding Bully... it's absolute hell. People are foaming at the mouth with the same "proof" of Bullworth's existence in GTA lore, even though they don't understand how lore works. It all started with some kid who wrote about Bully/GTA "connection" on the GTA Wiki 15 years ago because he liked the sound of it, and people decided to spread this crap to the masses, without any verification or critical thinking. I'm sure I would have been killed a couple of years ago if I dared to question the Bully/GTA theory. Explaining why this isn't the case will take a long time, so I recommend you watch [this video](https://youtu.be/OD8zxZwFbjE?si=OLOjaC\_tCM7NsqK7), read [this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/GTA/comments/1bzzfbh/bully\_is\_not\_connected\_to\_the\_3d\_universe\_proof/) or [this article](https://gta-myths.fandom.com/wiki/Bullworth). These materials are made very well and I hope they will somehow open the eyes of fans studying game lore.

Again, it's perfectly okay to create fanfiction and headcanons. But passing them off as "canon", forcing them on everyone and thus misleading them, is arrogant and ignorance. Keep your fantasies to yourself and in your own imagination, because you didn't write the lore of these games. Maybe some easter eggs or references on RDR and Bully in GTA have some "special meaning", but you didn't instill it. And remember: all Rockstar universes are independent (with the exception of the Manhunt dilogy which is truly connected to the lore of GTA 3D universe). A few seconds of a certain location or character's appearance on TV doesn't always indicate shared lore, as everything runs much deeper. Don't look at things superficially, have at least a modicum of critical thinking, and be skeptical of strange fan theories while carefully analyzing the information. Even GTA Wiki has long since removed the fake information about Bully and is ready to make further corrections.

What do you think about this? I'm also interested to hear your thoughts on the "Rockstar shared universe" theory.

Today I installed the Compatibility Pack on my console and launched Manhunt, but the problem is that the game is displayed in a small window with black fields around it, and the image is distorted.

Pickman foresaw before Nintendo?

I based this on the origins of the surnames or my headcanons. Do not take this as reliable information.
