@Spiros Pa No reason they can't link them, however, in terms of Toreno? James Woods as good as he is, is apparently notoriously difficult, I think they said Ray Liotta was as well, so, even if it only took an hour of work it might be difficult to get the same voice actors back.

When you realize what Toreno is, it puts that final act into a whole different context. He is a ruthless agent; he's used to the usual cycle of pumping and dumping dictators, contacts, spies and double agents, even his own 'colleagues,' using them like tools and nothing more. He had no obligation to help CJ at this point; no more use and no more missions to assign, and now CJ was nothing more than a loose end to tie up. He doesn't tie him up. Seemingly out of the blue, he follows through. He respects CJ's wish and has Sweet released, and when CJ bites the bait to do MORE dangerous work for him like an eager-eyed lapdog, he doesn't reel CJ in -- he cuts him loose. No more strings attached. He definitely could've done something here, but there was something more to him that had him let CJ go. That is the greatest act of kindness someone like Toreno is capable of. He went against his nature and instinct as a CIA agent, acting with at least a hint of honor and compassion. For any other character this would be the bare minimum reward. For Toreno it is an affront to everything he stood for as a manipulative agent, no doubt because he respected or genuinely liked CJ that much.

[@tocinoniggi460]

Shit man 🔥, What a precise analysis bro 🔥!

[@j.menapace625]

Toreno is basically a more honorable Tenpenny. Both essentially play the same game (i.e. their method of policing is to pit bad guys against other bad guys and, unfortunately, good guys sometimes get killed in their crossfire), but the main difference is that Toreno actually honors the deals he makes (he makes good on getting Sweet released from jail) and isn't so paranoid about being found out that he whacks his helpers as soon as their usefulness to him ends.

[@TheVulturis]

To be fair the guy in question has broke into a high security military base and an amphibious assault ship, killed every single highly trained guard that was in his way and escaped after being chased down with jets and missiles. Gonna be a bit difficult for Toreno to have him killed.

[@bre4kd0wn1]

​@@TheVulturisToreno most likely knew having someone like CJ wanting you dead is a 100% certain way to get yourself killed. If betraying and killing him are out of questions to tie up the loose end, keeping your part of the deal is the much better way to go.

[@MenagerieOfMadness501]

Toreno also mentioned how CJ’s work pissed off a lot of people nationally/internationally. He likely went out of his way to make sure none of that heat lead back to CJ

[@StarkLoyalist]

Carl owes so much from Cesar Vialpando, Wu Zi Mu, and Mike Toreno. the only people who kept their word and never stab people’s backs or tie up loose ends throughout the storyline. sure they made crimes, but they were never corrupted with power whereas with the likes of Frank Tenpenny, Big Smoke, and Salvatore Leone.

[@defaultusername123]

Exactly. Exactly. Exactly. Thats what makes them (and all) great characters in the Rockstar Universe. They may not be "good guys" but they have their code and if you scratch their back, they'll scratch yours.

[@NikosGinsan]

I don't know about Toreno. He is awesome but he made Carl do some pretty fucked up agent 007 type shit and all he got was his annoying ass brother out of prison. At least he should have given him more rewards for all those suicidal missions he completed.

@@vic8695 Agent 14 is an absolute joke. Rackman, eh, has her times, and was pretty much the only one that didn't get caught, aside from being much more professional than her partner. And about ULP, it seems to me they kinda wanted to make him GTA IV's Toreno, but less charismatic. They kinda realized it and made it a side-side-side character in V's storyline, so much that killing him affected the storyline in no particular way. Then they de-canonized his death for the Online heists. But seriously, Toreno is way ahead of all these by far. And James Woods nailed the role and mystique of the character: you kinda know who ULP, Rackman and 14 are, their associates and exactly what they do. Toreno is as ominous as it gets. Hell, he could have been bullshitting you about the "agents watching all over [him]" and you wouldn't know until he put Sweet outta the joint and realized he's the real deal. You don't know who he is, and perhaps Mike Toreno may not be his real name, and you wouldn't know unlike ULP and A14.

[@rpgmindandfitness]

My favorite character in GTA's history and my favorite relationship in GTA's history. James Woods nailed it and the dialogue written is utterly fantastic. I love that they didn't take this in a typical GTA story arc. Where someone dangles a GTA protagonist and makes him do as he pleases. Then, eventually, you get into a showdown with him and kill him. Toreno's respect for CJ actually grew as their relationship went on. Example being 6:18 when he sneaks up and actually ask CJ what his take on the situation is. A guy who knows everything about EVERYTHING. Yet, he valued CJ's opinion in that moment. Toreno even wound up being somewhat of a mentor by knocking some sense into him. He was paramount in CJ's character development, IMO. 1st half of the story CJ vs 2nd half (post Toreno) of the story CJ is very different and much more mature. The fact that they also had him wind up being a truly good person and a man of his word is so unlike the GTA series and just fantastic. Just about the only heartwarming moment in the series. Everything here is just fantastic. It's funny, it's intriguing, it's exciting, it's intelligent, it's heartwarming... perfect shit man. You could make a film around CJ and Toreno.

But if I was to make an origin story I would've made 3 GTAs, or one gta with 2 expansion parts with 3 different protagonists (as per the cities) in LS stories, I would've made A Ballas guy a protagonist:- the man who killed CJ's mom.. a man who is compelled to join Ballas to repay the debts of a loan shark. For SF, T-Bone Mendez.. Story of how he rises and join forces with Jizzy to power For LV, someone from the traids, on how he works for Woozie and origins of the casino issues in LV

This is literally Hades swearing for 10 minutes and so down for it.

[@AlexPerez-hn2do]

Probably my favorite GTA character of all time.

[@omnibill]

Toreno is bad ass AF, woods plays him well. And he comes through for CJ.

[@United_States_Of_America_1776]

I would suggest that Mike Toreno either is a member of the CIA or the DOJ.

[@KGBSpyGeorgeCostanza]

He is part of the CIA, part of your Corrupt Agency

[@____-gy5mq]

Corrupted in action

[@forests.9597]

CIA definitely.

[@mariolisa2832]

I mean was there any doubt? Clearly a veteran high ranking CIA agent who is on a very long leash... (Read: He can do whatever the fuck he wants)

[@defaultusername123]

6:30 makes it explicitly clear he's CIA, making fun of how CIA does all the clandestine arms deals and how they knock over elections in favor of controllable dictators

[@thechallenger8000]

Toreno is the one that who can kick u from house

[@Menace0]

I've crashed the hydra a few times from laughing at Toreno's dialogue, I kinda feel like Rockstar did that on purpose to make the mission harder.

[@tyronecriss23]

My favorite GTA character, dude is literally a corrupt agent but still tells more truth than any other character and helps you out. 2nd has to be Wu Zi.

[@jk-474]

4:03 My favorite 😂 also “prepare to be vaporized what a bunch of bullshit”

[@forgotmyname6453]

He is a conspiracy theorist😂😂

[@mrcocoloco7200]

Cringe

[@Hopper-gn2ej]

Toreno's character is so interesting when you think about the real history this game is based on. The CIA were heavily involved in the drug trade and other criminal shit in the US in the 80s and 90s for a variety of reasons, and CJ is a pawn in it for them. After this game it was a staple of GTA stories for the protagonist to work for a shady high level government guy, but Toreno is far more based in reality. Even Tenpenny is clearly based on the Rampart Scandal, this game is full of social messages.

[@luisjaime2567]

Yeah, the CIA has put their fingers out anything they’ll make you disappear. They’ll put fake evidence on you and they’ll probably hire their little hitman. Get you out like get you out you know what I mean

[@roueltaupa7383]

toreno and the truth have the best lines. imagine if they have a debate.

[@ElwindMage]

Close my eyes and I can imagine Hades saying everything Mike says 😂

[@kaana8421]

He sounds so sympathetic for someone with a dark business

[@creepycassette]

7:03 carls actually very funny when he wants to be

[@ares679]

James Woods voice was so perfect fit on this character.

[@austinfrank7752]

One of the best characters in video game history for sure. James woods is something else

[@frankmiranda707]

Toreno: (To CJ) “Don’t worry. Sweet’s just fine. He gets touched, a prison guard goes home and finds that his wife and kids have been murdered. Everything’s under control.” With THAT kind of protection, CJ HAS to do those favors for Toreno

[@ImEnzoProductions]

Very underrated. One of the wittiest in gta history

[@Catlover67362]

I love this Graphics It's better than Definitive Edition

[@salvagesonic2903]

5:19 I kept laughin when he put CJ in dar sleeper hold

[@adamk3017]

When your fellow Gangbanger is a Traitor but a Slimy Government Agent is probably your biggest allies really reminds me how good this game's writing

[@The101Point1]

James Woods is awesome.

[@Spectator007]

Toreno was like CJ's unofficial father

[@Agent1W]

Maybe...he WAS the father?!

[@heyitschanandler]

Despite him being so cool, HE IS THE BOSS OF THE WORST MISSION IN THE FUCKING GAME (Learning to Fly)

[@c4rlow455]

i feel your pain, did that shit over and over for almost 3 hours coz I'm terrible at planes in this game

[@rtomas47]

I actually think flying is fun

[@kevier52]

not really the worst, but the hardest and the most stressful mission in the game

[@theonlyplain]

Thats easy for me but noe is the hardest

[@777_Luver]

Perfect casting for toreno!

[@alt5072]

toreno is the best character in all of gta series imo

[@TheBoostedDoge]

Gotta love how this game uses both FBI and FIB

[@supermario_49]

Toreno is awesome!

[@Samrat74737]

The Toraeno CIA background makes him more badass and cool.
