::{{Gripe}} Alderney is based off of NJ. Thats like Algonquin being based off Manhattan but not having any similar landmarks. Why base it off of something when its not going to look like it?

{{Gripe}} I didn't say Algonquin didn't have any real life landmarks. I was just using it as an example. You were saying there was no NJ in GTA4 but then what I meant was if theres no NJ or NY then why does Algonquin look so much like Manhattan if there is no Manhattan in GTA 4.

:::{{Rebut}} No, wait, i think the person who rebutted was right. Alderney doesn't have to look like NJ because none of the islands '''had''' to look like the place they were based off. Algonquin looks so much like Manhattan because Rockstar north ''wanted'' it to look like Manhattan. Alderney looks the way it does because thats the way Rockstar north wanted it to look.

{{Gripe}}Time doesn't progress in the city; seasons don't change, construction sites don't wrap up and finish and no new buildings are built. I doubt NYC's construction sites work forever and never complete their task. Another hit on realism.
