With the exception of the state of San Andreas, never have more than one of these cities been on a single map, so there is not much solid information to confirm whether these all exist on the same fictional Earth or otherwise. However, in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], the player can fly Eastwards (over sea) from [[Las Venturas]] to a portion of [[Liberty City]]. This is roughly in line with the journey from their real-life counterparts: Las Vegas to New York.

Also, there are many recurring characters and consistent peculiarities, repeating messages and direct references between many of the games - particularly those in the [[Grand Theft Auto III |GTA III era]]. Many characters such as [[Ken Rosenberg]] appear in several of the games, in a constant canonical storyline - so it is confirmed that all GTA III era games take place on the same fictional Earth, although at different times, which falls in line with the games themselves.

However, it should be noted that recurring locations appear very differently in different games. [[Liberty City]] appeared in [[GTA1]] and [[GTA III]] with almost no similarities other than the city they were both based on - New York. But when the city also appeared in [[GTA Liberty City Stories]], it was almost the same as the GTA III incarnations, but with minor differences to reflect the change in time (three years earlier). However, Liberty City appeared again in the trailer for [[GTA IV]] looking very different to its previous incarnations, and indicating a totally different and unrelated city - although many cultural references have been spotted, including the local newspaper: the [[Liberty Tree]].

[[Liberty City]] is primarily depicted as a large City with a sizeable population (4 million in the Grand Theft Auto 3 rendition), featuring a complete transportation infrastructure of roads and railways, and is located on a geographical configuration of shorelines and islands, similar to that of New York City. The city has been described as one suffering from crime and corruption, with the presence of organized crime, feuding street gangs, petty criminals, and rampant misconduct among city officials and law enforcement. Parts of Liberty City have also suffered major damage and loss from bombings, Which are being orchestrated by local criminals. Some of these damages, however, have been repaired or have resulted in complete redevelopment of an entire area. The city has been voted the Worst Place in America. Liberty City is based on New York City, and has appeared in [[Grand Theft Auto 1|GTA 1]], [[GTA III]], [[GTA Liberty City Stories]] and the trailer for [[GTA IV]].
