That mass grave in the desert...

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.grand-theft-auto (More info?)

After many months of driving around and exploring, I finally found the thing!
Seems to be too dark to get any reliable images of though (unless there's a dust
storm), and the only reason why I finally managed to find it was down to this

If the mass grave was damn-near solid to find, it makes me think what else is
still lurking out there in the game. It really has to be said that after all
these months there's still stuff in there I've not yet discovered!

Does it serve any purpose though, or is it just one of those things Rockstar put
in there for us to find?

I always thought that mass grave was the band members that had gone missing
when Maccer and Kent Paul needed rescuing from the desert......they got
murdered after having fun at the snake farm the night before.....
certainly listening to the script kinda infers as much......

We are talking about the mass grave which has a pickup truck parked
nearby aren't we? Or am I missing *another* sight I've missed.

I doubt that anything like the beautiful parts of scenery have any
relation to the story line whatsoever. I can actuall confirm that the
grave is there right from the beginning, and so is the Biohazard pit in
case you're wondering.

Btw, I'm having a blast playing ManHunt at the moment. You can really
tell in which part of Rockstar's game development where they've
fine-tuned things (Like the targetting reticules for example).

Play.com have got the PS2 version of ManHunt for £9.99 amongst other
great select titles.


Cheers,
Rob

Ah right, I haven't played that far into the story yet.

lol!

I'm working in sunny (!) Epsom and St. Helier hospitals at the
moment.

Play.com is bloody good VFM though, I got the 2 disc Layer Cake DVD for
£5.99 *and* it was with me the next day.


Cheers,
Rob

It's in one of the country towns north of Los Santos.

Not really a lot to see, just a big hole with yellow tape around it.
Upon the games initial release on the PS2 there where loads of rumours
floating around the forum that Big Foot spawned there.

Ha!

Ah, just found it. Yep, looks like one of those things that I would never have
spotted if I hadn't looked for it. Still, makes it easier for the 'Big Foot'
conspiracy theorists to concoct their stories!

Incidentally, I also noticed that the Pay Day Loans building in Palomino Creek
is one of the few places where there is smoke permanently billowing out of the
chinmeys! Perhaps people who couldn't make their repayments? ;-)

seems they block outside links. 'I've trimmed the relevant bit of map,
it's up by the abandoned airfield
