EDITORIAL GATE
Only public reviewed inventory counts
Archived drafts, unresolved database stubs and non-indexable reference utilities are excluded. The corpus is limited to published or corrected pages that are indexable and manually reviewed.
Don’t just trust the claim.
Inspect the evidence system behind it.
This page exposes the corpus behind LUDQORA itself: how many public files survived review, how concentrated the sourcing is, how the official Rockstar media archive is deduplicated, and where our conclusions stop. The figures are recalculated during production builds instead of being typed into a marketing counter.
PUBLIC REVIEWED FILES60
24 reports · 18 guides · 18 curated dossiers.
CITATION PLACEMENTS205
Every source-ledger entry across the public editorial corpus.
UNIQUE SOURCE URLS56
Deduplicated URLs across 26 source domains.
OFFICIAL MEDIA CORPUS261
Distinct assets rebuilt from Rockstar's downloadable official archives.
CONNECTED TO DOSSIERS232
Official assets whose normalized title maps to a currently published reference file.
PRIMARY-SOURCE REFS149
First-party source placements; not a substitute for independent reporting where it matters.
REPRODUCIBLE METHOD
What these numbers mean — and what they do not
Original value is not a bigger counter. It is a method another reader can understand and challenge.
SOURCE DIVERSITY
205 placements are not 205 independent sources
We count citation placements separately from deduplicated URLs. The current corpus resolves to 56 unique URLs across 26 domains, so repeated use of one primary document stays visible instead of being inflated.
MEDIA DEDUPLICATION
One official asset should not become five “different” images
The build reads Rockstar's downloadable screenshot, Ultimate Edition, Vintage Vice City and artwork archives, groups files by normalized title, keeps the largest source asset, then generates web variants. The current result is 261 distinct official assets.
BOUNDARY
An archive count is not a gameplay fact
A filename, screenshot or repeated visual can support an observation, but it does not automatically prove a mechanic, location boundary or final launch rule. The archive is evidence inventory; conclusions still need reporting context.
OFFICIAL MEDIA DISTRIBUTION
The current Rockstar archive, after deduplication
These counts are derived at build time from the official downloadable archives. They can change when Rockstar changes those archives.
SCREENSHOTS
99 distinct assets
Core official screenshots.
ARTWORK
99 distinct assets
Official artwork and wallpaper material.
ULTIMATE
51 distinct assets
Ultimate Edition benefit imagery.
VINTAGE
12 distinct assets
Vintage Vice City Pack imagery.
SOURCE MIX
The evidence corpus is not one-source journalism
Source types are labels from the reader-visible ledgers. A primary document can establish a fact; interviews and reporting can add context that the document itself does not contain.
Primary
149 source references
First-party or official source material.
Independent reporting
34 source references
Traceable reporting used for independently useful context.
Interview
15 source references
Direct interview material preserved as its own evidence class.
Analysis
4 source references
Context or analysis kept separate from first-party confirmation.
Local reporting
1 source references
Traceable reporting used for independently useful context.
Community analysis
1 source references
Context or analysis kept separate from first-party confirmation.
Context
1 source references
Context or analysis kept separate from first-party confirmation.
THE EVIDENCE LADDER
Five labels. Five different promises.
The label is part of the reporting, not decoration.
OFFICIAL
Primary-source confirmation
Published or shown by Rockstar, Take-Two or another first-party platform source.
REPORTED
Credible traceable reporting
Supported by a traceable credible report, interview or preview, but not the same as a first-party announcement.
RUMOR
Track it without promoting it
Circulating claim with a weaker source chain. Useful to track, not safe to repeat as fact.
OPEN FILE
Evidence without a final answer
Evidence exists, but the conclusion is still unresolved.
FALSE
Contradicted by evidence
Available evidence contradicts the claim.
LIVE NEWSROOM LEDGER
The newest claims and their first verification anchor
Each report also carries its complete reader-visible evidence ledger. This list is a shortcut into the reasoning, not a replacement for it.
