Spoilers follow:
In the popular video game GTA San Andreas, Claude is a character that shows up early mid game and takes
Catalina away to Liberty City, much to the relief of the main character, Carl "
CJ" Johnson. Claude never speaks, but may look familiar to fans of the
GTA series. What isn't mentioned is that Claude is actually the main character from GTA3, who is never named and never speaks in that game. It also means San Andreas is something of a prequel to GTA3, as
Catalina betrays Claude at the beginning of GTA3, and is eventually killed by Claude at the end of that game.
Claude took
Catalina away to Liberty city only to have her
shoot him and leave him for dead. He took his revenge, though, by blowing her
helicopter out of the sky.
