Talk:Banshee

Verification, please
I need someone to verify the following statement I made in the article: "The '90s Viper RT/10 version is the only top-down convertible that the player cannot jump into without opening the driver door." I'm pretty sure of this, but I just wanted confirmation from others who know the game as well. Thanks! Eganio 19:11, 15 April 2008 (UTC)


 * You're right in the statement you made, when I played GTA SA and LCS when I got into a Banshee my character didn't hop through to get in.::Fast Lane 22:46, 25 October 2008 (UTC)


 * That's also the case for the GTAIII Banshee. No jumping in. --MattyDienhoff 04:25, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

This article may want to be revised and I'm too lazy to do it at the moment. But seriously, it should. --Synthetic Socks 13:02, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Could someone please replace the first picture of the banshee with something little more appealing, such as the banshee from GTA IVOptimist33gta 01:52, 10 May 2009 (UTC)


 * This is a problem with most vehicle articles as no one picture is better than the other. The best thing to do is to place all images in a gallery.--Spaceeinstein 04:08, 10 May 2009 (UTC)


 * But there should always be one in the top right corner of the article (see Help:Articles). We just need to choose the best image for that position, taking in to account things like camera angle (best image, not best version of the car, though if it comes down to that than why not?).

 * This is the problem, especially for names shared by vehicles prior to GTA III (Fire Truck, Stallion, Bus, Stinger and Speeder). Your argument basically tips in favor of vehicles from GTA III and later, since they are a far more detailed. We might as well avoid lead pictures outright in cases like this. - ZS 08:19, 10 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, taking out the lead picture in a featured page is just a horrible idea in my opinion. While it is true putting pictures of vehicles that have the best looks is favoring GTA III and IV era, the top down pictures just look bad and you can barely make out what that vehicle is suppose to be. That is why we should have the more detailed pictures, because that is what the people come here to see, not just some image of a few pixels put together 10 years ago. Although I do agree those top down pictures should be put into the gallery, they should never be put into the top right corner unless that is the only picture of that vehicle(Karma Bus, Medicar).

 * It's amazing how shallow modern gamers are. The only way that this can be solved easily is by putting the most recent rendition at the top, but then some cars such as the Admiral were also in GTA Chinatown wars, so the whole "next-gen graphics FTW" arguement would start again. However, I think it's only fair that the earlier renditions are featured too, so maybe it would be better to just put all the images in the gallery at the bottom (unless it's the only vehicle with its name, such as the Cossie or [Mundano). Either that, or we split the article into sections "GTA 1 Rendition", "GTA III Rendition" (much like most vehicle articles at the moment already are) and feature the picture of the appropriate vehicle in each section. - Hardrock182 16:15, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
