At this time, [[Rockstar Games]] have not announced the canon ending, and until they do, or until the next full installment in the series is released, there is no concrete evidence to prove that either ending is canon. | At this time, [[Rockstar Games]] have not announced the canon ending, and until they do, or until the next full installment in the series is released, there is no concrete evidence to prove that either ending is canon. | ||
Firstly, there is an explosion in Out of Commission, just after Niko kills Pegorino, believed to be that of Bulgarin's jet exploding at the end of TBOGT. This only happens in the "Revenge" ending. | |||
Other reasons supporting "Revenge" include the phone calls Niko makes to Kate and Roman following his choice. If choosing "Deal", Niko is berated by Kate for going back on his own principles, and he admits to Roman that he is unsure whether or not he made the right decision. If choosing "Revenge" however, Niko is congratulated by Kate for understanding that he doesn't need money to be happy. | Other reasons supporting "Revenge" include the phone calls Niko makes to Kate and Roman following his choice.

Clues pointing to "Deal" as canon are the credits in [[The Ballad Of Gay Tony]] also show [[Patrick McReary]]; Niko's friend and ally, leaving the city. Some fans take this to mean that perhaps the "Deal" ending is canon, believing Packie would not leave his mother after Kate's death. This could also be connected to "Revenge" because Kate's death would likely drive Packie away from the city. | Clues pointing to "Deal" as canon are the credits in [[The Ballad Of Gay Tony]] also show [[Patrick McReary]]; Niko's friend and ally, leaving the city.

In all, the evidence so far leans slightly toward the "Revenge" ending as canon, though until Rockstar announce officially, it is the player's choice. | ||
