8-Ball: Difference between revisions

'''8-Ball''' is a firearms and explosives specialist who appears in [[Grand Theft Auto 3]], [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]] and [[Grand Theft Auto Advance]] and owns three bomb shops throughout Liberty City. In Grand theft Auto 3, 8-Ball meets [[Claude]] shortly after the beginning of the storyline, when he and Claude escape from a police convoy. As a token of his appreciation, 8-Ball introduces Claude to [[Luigi Goterelli]], an old friend of his, for work. 8-Ball seems to be the closest thing Claude has to a friend throughout the game.

8-Ball can be seen with both hands bandaged from an injury during his appearances, leaving Claude to do most of the more intensive work (such as driving and shooting) when 8-Ball accompanies him. 8-Ball is believed to have sustained scaldings from hot fat accidentally poured onto his hands, during a scuffle with the police in a raid at his home, before he was arrested. However, in Grand Theft Auto Advance it is said that 8-Ball was ambushed with the game's protagonist, Mike, by the [[Colombian Cartel]], in which they were predominatly using flamethrowers, resulting in the burning of 8-Balls hands, and then his subsequent arrest by the police as they raided his workshop.
