In the journalist's apartment, in the one room is a blue and white shopping bag with the words "Gash" written on the front of it. This is the same name of a department store in the North Point Mall in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. In the Fueled By Hate level go to the junkyard. The car crusher and its surroundings are the same from Grand Theft Auto: Vice City's junkyard. In the View Of Innocence level, on the second floor in one of the shoot out locations, look for a little counter with the words "Tarbrush Café" and a little picture of a coffee cup. The Tarbrush Cafe is the location where Tommy and Lance had to destroy in the Cop Land mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. In the introduction when the camera is moving, there is scene where it shows a drug store called Ryton Aide. In Little Havana in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, there is a drug store named Ryton Aide shaped similarly.
