My second favorite is Donald Love - he prefers cold calculus when addressing any situation, he is prudent and does not give any ground, as shown when the Colombians rack up the Oriental Gentleman's ransom price, and he is the "the goals justify the means" kind of person, shown when he launches a false-flag assassination resulting in an all-out gang war between Colombians and the Yakuza - all just to lower real estate prices. What is most interesting, this game does not capture his rise to power, but his downfall - showing us what eventually happens to the man who "had it all". And Frank Vincent's voice acting only fortifies him as a charismatic character. He is that charismatic crime family leader who earned his place and respect in the city's crime world. Kind of disappointing that such an interesting character got such an anticlimactic death, but so it goes. If you truly see absolutely nothing on the map, it has to be a time. So if you are controlling Franklin and see a 1 on Trevor and a 1 on Michael, then switch to them if you are looking for something outside the main mission you wont find it. When we see how powerful Salvatore was in San Andreas and Liberty City Stories, the fact that she managed to orchestrate and pull off the assassination as quickly as she did becomes even more impressive. Many times when they all show a 1, its because any of the characters can activate the next main mission. So was she sleeping with Maria because she genuinely wanted her or because she wanted to get as much information out of her as possible? Probably a bit of both, but when Maria went to her for help, Asuka saw an opportunity and grabbed it. Who knows? Given how unstable Maria was, she might have been Asuka's (unwitting) informant inside the Leone Mafia. One crime boss (intimately?) involved with a rival crime bosses' wife-pretty ballsy move. It seems like they had known each other for quite some time prior to the events of GTA III. Having an informant within the LCPD (Ray Machowski) was a smart move as well.īut what interests me most about Asuka is how, when, and why she got involved with Maria in the first place. If Claude had gotten killed before he could hit Salvatore, Asuka really wouldn't have lost anything. A rival crime boss is knocked off and she nabs herself a very talented hired gun. Making Claude knock off Salvatore Leone before she'll give him any more work with the Yakuza was brilliant-if he succeeded, there was absolutely no way that Claude would ever be able to return to the Mafia.
GRAND THEFT AUTO 3 CHARACTERS SERIES
She is one of the smartest and most disciplined crime bosses in the series up to this point. A lot of the other characters in GTA III-Salvatore, Toni, Catalina, Maria-got more backstory/character development in later games, but I honestly think that Asuka outshined them all in GTA III. In terms of GTA III by itself, I'd have to go with Asuka.
