Real Gang Members Star as Voice Actors in GTA V
IGN’s PS3 team shares the following:
Grand Theft Auto V’s gang members are actually voiced by real gang members, producer Lazlow Jones has revealed during an interview with Chicago radio station WGN.
“When we record all these ambient characters that are in the world we go towards authenticity,” said Lazlow during his discussion with WGN host Nick Digilio. “So in the game, part of the element of the story is that there’s these gangs, these rival gangs.”
“There’s black gangs, there’s Latino gangs, and we recruited a guy who gets gang members, like actual gang members, real gang members. I mean, El Salvadorian gang dudes with amazing tattoos and one of which literally had gotten out of prison the day before.
