The purpose of this thread is to compile a list of all information gained from the GTA V Trailer. Post notable theories, and screenshots if possible. Let's try to build an organized analysis.

"Why did I move here? I guess it was the weather, Or the, I don't know that thing, that magic, You see it in the movies, I wanted to retire from what I was doing, You know, from that, that line of work, Be a good guy for once, a family man, So, I bought a big house, came here, put my feet up, Thought I'd be a dad like all the other dad's, My kids, will be like the kids on TV, we play ball and sit in the sun, But, well, you know how it is."
Protagonist The most prominently featured character in the teaser trailer is a middle-aged caucasian male. In various scenes he is respectively seen overlooking the city from a balcony, taking part in a jewelry store robbery, and driving a blue sports car. Based on the monologue from the trailer, it appears that he is a retired career criminal of sorts, moving to Los Santos to start a new life and raise children. As expected in GTA, things don't go as planned and he is pulled back into 'the life'. Dourvas is credited for making a connection to actor Ned Luke, who bears a strikingly similar appearance and a matching voice.

Re-opening this thread because we need an actual analysis thread, and not just general banter/questions/observations.
EVERYONE: Keep this thread on topic. Post serious theories, with evidence (screenshots, relevant links). This is not the place for discussion or back-and-forth Q&A.

Male protagonist, who isn't a native of San Andreas/Los Santos, he has a family which made him wish to retire from devious dealings, but he is seemingly drawn back into this lifestyle, why? Well, you know how it is.
Dude you forgot to mention JETS!!!!!!!!!! (private and military) Why would we need jets if there is just one airport to land at? Heres hoping its not just LS.

Am I the only one who sees this as an updated graphical CJ?
I mean hes wearing pretty much the same as CJ does default.
