Liberty City vs New York City (In Photos)

By Luke Plunkett on May 14, 2008 at 1:40 PM

Liberty City is New York City. Pretty much. You already know that. Times Square, the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge, you’ve no doubt seen them all in the game by now. But just how deep does the real-world-referencing rabbit hole run? You might recognise Broadway, but do you recognise Rockstar’s version of the Paramount Theatre? Or their rendition of the Hearst Building? Maybe not. But they’re in there. Those and a ton more have been noted, catalogued and photographed by designer Matthew Johnston, with the full gallery available at the Flickr link below.
