== Luis Fernando Lopez will kill Bulgarin in ''The Ballad of Gay Tony''. ==
This one's not just due to Bulgarin's mysterious disappearance and the police computer referring to him as deceased. Think about it -- ''everyone'' in ''[[Grand Theft Auto IV]]'' short of Niko and Johnny gets theirs at some point (and the two of them do as well, to some degree), while Bulgarin seems to pull off a huge [[Karma Houdini]], who causes a lot of problems for a lot of people. The general way the story of the original game was crafted to accommodate ''The Lost and Damned'' helps -- it seems weird to have a [[What Happened to
* {{spoiler|100% confirmed. Bulgarin was the [[Big Bad]] of ''The Ballad of Gay Tony'', and it ends in his death.}}
== The entire GTA III canon is part of a [[Lotus Eater Machine]] within the GTA IV canon. ==
It explains how the two continuities seem so connected, yet are so different. Think about how the world of the ''III''-canon games is so wacky and over-the-top, while ''IV'' is so much more realistic and somber. The Liberty City in ''III'' is a scaled-down version of the Liberty City in ''IV'', with obvious creative liberties taken with the portrayal.

Line 103:
This would explain why a player character never dies, you are seeing the world from the point of view of the protagonist. What ever they do quantum immortality keeps them alive as they are always going to perceive the universe they survived in. When they get arrested they are always going to get executed or killed by the gangs/cops in prison they made enemies with so they always end up getting off free as they will never perceive that universe.
== The ''[[Grand Theft Auto III
People only die when the ambulance doesn't show up in time. Vehicles explode easily, but respawn instantly. Nobody locks their cars. Repairs are cheap and easy. You buy spawnpoints instead of specific vehicles, and the replacements are built by a vast excess in production caused by the inefficient american car industry.
== ''[[Grand Theft Auto]]'', ''[[Manhunt]]'', and ''[[Max Payne (
Specifically, ''Max Payne'' and ''Manhunt'' take place in the GTA III continuity. Carcer City is mentioned numerous times in the [[GTA Radio]] series, and Adrenaline is clearly the same stuff Max Payne's been taking for the past few years (which [[Max Payne (
