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.

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.
