*The gang The Smileys in Manhunt are a parody of the [[Loonies]] in [[Grand Theft Auto 2]]. The Loonies and Smileys both occupy mental hospitals, and the logo of the Loonies is a smiley face. Lionel Starkweather also refers to the Smileys as ''loonies''.
 
;Grand Theft Auto III
 
* In [[Grand Theft Auto III]], another Rockstar North game, a news segment on the in-game radio station, [[Lips 106]], reports, "in nearby Carcer City, police chief [[Gary Schaffer]] was cleared of corruption charges in a controversial decision by the court. Let's hope those missing witnesses turn up safe and sound." This is an obvious allusion to a prominent character in this game, even though GTA III precedes Manhunt's release date by two years.
