The following is a list of secrets, Easter eggs and hidden trivia references in Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories.
Easter Eggs
- In the parking lot behind the Liberty Tree building in Bedford Point, there is a hidden sign, showing a handwritten message and Rockstar Leeds' signature smiley (as seen on the hidden signs in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories and under the sea north of Bohan in Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars). The PlayStation Portable version says: "Hello again!", while the PlayStation 2 version says "You just can't get enough of this alley, can you?". The sign can be found by jumping over the walls around the lot using a tall vehicle.
- During the storyline, after some major characters are killed by Toni Cipriani, gravestones bearing their names appear in Liberty City Cemetery. Each tombstone (with the exception of Cedric "Wayne" Fotheringay) has a unique message:
- Paulie Sindacco - Viva Las Venturas baby
- Giovanni Casa - Gone...
- Joseph Daniel O'Toole - Sleeping with angels
- Roger C. Hole - Running for office in heaven
- Dan Sucho - Dead and what not...
- Vincenzo Cilli - Not so lucky after all
References to previous games
- East of Belleville Park, a billboard for the film Let Me Bounce can be seen. The film stars Candy Suxxx, a porn actress from Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.
- Advertisements for the film Sonny Forelli: A True Story can be seen throughout the city. Sonny Forelli was the primary antagonist of GTA Vice City.
- Advertisements for the film The Liberty King can be seen throughout the city. The posters use the promotional artwork of Donald Love from Grand Theft Auto III.
- In Bedford Point, an advertisement for Heat can be seen, which uses a screenshot of Carl Johnson, protagonist of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
- An advertisement for Still Madd, an album by GTA San Andreas character Madd Dogg, can be seen outside the Portland safehouse.
Real-world references
Bully
Around Liberty City (mainly Portland) several graffiti of a gang known as Bully Boys. Could this be a reference to Bully, another game made by Rockstar Games. The graffiti is located opposite Maria's apartment and in the Alley where Toni first meets Wayne and his gang in Chinatown.
Bickle'76
The Bickle'76 is a variant of Taxi, which is faster than the regular taxi and has a very unique design with a red exterior and engine as the Diablo Stallion. The reference of this taxi is that the name is a reference to Travis Bickle of the movie Taxi Driver.
The Main Frame
In several places in Liberty City is a sign on a movie called The MainFrame is some guys who after discovering LSD: The Truth, this is a reference to the movie Matrix.
The characters that appear on the bill are very similar to Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, such as:
- Barbara Schternvart - (one of Carl Johnson's girlfriends) we can see to the bottom right side of the poster.
- Alan Crawford - (ex-manager of Madd Dogg) to the left of the character of black shirt.
- Sweet's Girl - to the bottom left side of the poster.
- The other two characters resemble some of GTA San Andreas pedestrians.
Lawyer Suit
After Salvatore Leone goes to jail, Toni Cipriani is to pose as his lawyer, using a lawyer suit calling Lionel, what could be a reference to Lionel Hutz, a lawyer of the cartoon series The Simpsons
Kill Bill
In GTA LCS there are several references to the movie Kill Bill one of them is the Dragon Jumpsuit which is a similar outfit to the costume seen in the film . The other parody is the mission Crazy '69 ', which is the same where you get the Dragon Jumpsuit.
Adult humor
The Third Leg
The third leg is a play published in posters, located in various parts of the city as:
- In Francis International Airport, in the part where there are many posters, you can see the poster.
- At the entrance to the Callahan Bridge (Staunton Island to Portland) is another sign.
The meaning of this poster shows three legs, of which the middle one is shaped like a penis.
