Title: Can you identify this picture?
Post by: WillRockwell on January 23, 2009, 08:40:09 AM: I live in Manhattan near the office of Rockstar Games. Last night I found some posters they had set out for trash pickup. There were four Bully posters and this. This seems to be a graphics test of some sort, but I can't identify what game it is for. Do you recognize it?

I didn't go there to dumpster dive, was just walking by on recycling night and saw these posters. Being a gamer, I had to take them. This one is large, about 30 inches tall, and quite striking. The characters have a Crockett and Tubbs look to them, but Rockstar didn't do the Miami Vice game.

True, although I doubt they would throw out Artwork of an upcoming game.

And hell yes, I'd love to live near A Rockstar Office. Grab a whole bunch of posters of em.
