'''Perseus''' is a clothing store in the [[HD Universe]] of the ''[[Grand Theft Auto]]'' series that sells expensive suits and other high-end clothes and accessories.
[[File:Perseus-logo.png|right]]
 
'''Perseus''' is a clothing store in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] that sells expensive suits and flashy clothes. It is one of only three clothing chains where the player can purchase clothes in GTA IV, the other two being the [[Russian Shop]] and [[Modo]], but it is the most upscale clothing store available to the player in the game. Perseus is based on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Versace Versace] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herm%C3%A8s Hermes]. Evidence for a Versace link can be send on Versace logos, which features the head of Medusa. In Greek mythology, Perseus was a Greek hero who killed Medusa by beheading her, and he is also shown on the Perseus logo in game. The Perseus logo is stylistically very similar to the Hermès logo, and both brands are named after characters in Greek/Roman mythology.

== Description ==
 
[[File:Perseus-GTA4-interior.jpg|thumb|350px|The interior of the Exchange's Perseus outlet, with [[Marcus]] in view.]]There are two Perseus shops in [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]], both in [[Algonquin]], but the clothes remain the same; one is in [[Middle Park East]] and the other is in [[The Exchange]]. There is no cash register and a guard, who will tell Niko to "use it or put it away" if he has a weapon equipped. In certain missions, such as [[Final Interview]], [[Three Leaf Clover]], [[Undertaker]], [[Pegorino's Pride]] and [[Mr and Mrs Bellic|Mr. and Mrs. Bellic]], you have to wear clothing from Perseus. [[Marcus]] (the store attendant and customer assistant of Perseus, whose name is only revealed in [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]]) often compliments [[Niko Bellic|Niko]] if he is wearing clothes from Perseus.
 
   
The player can download a Perseus theme for their phone via [[Vipluxuryringtones.com]]. The player also gets a text message from [[Brucie Kibbutz]] soon after unlocking [[Algonquin|Algonquin, following]] [[Blow Your Cover]], telling him to "look VIP" and buy some clothes from Perseus.

The [[Radio Stations in GTA IV|Radio Station]] that plays inside of all stores is [[Jazz Nation Radio 108.5]]. If the player manages to glitch into the stores in ''[[Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City|Episodes from Liberty City]]'', the station will be set to [[Electro-Choc]] instead.
== Appearance ==
 
Being a top-of-the-line business, Perseus has an elegant appearance inside and out. Inside is Marcus, who serves as the attendant cashier, and one security guard. The guard will yell at Niko should he be holding a weapon. There are two rows of clothing and some additional clothing hanging on the wall.
 
   
 
[[Girlfriends in GTA IV|Girlfriends]] [[Carmen Ortiz]] and [[Alex Chilton]] prefer Niko to wear clothes from Perseus.
Marcus's attitude towards the player depends on how the player is dressed. He remarks favorably towards any article of clothing the player wears that has been purchased from Perseus. While generally commenting negatively towards other forms of clothing. For example, should the player wear a Perseus suit with boots from the [[Russian Shop]], Marcus may praise the suit, but recommends changing the shoes to some from Perseus.

====Staff====
In relation to his seemingly fashionable behavior, Marcus can be scared off easily and has a high-pitched voice. If Niko harms him, he runs off and the security guard attacks Niko starting a fight.

== List of clothing ==
 
Unlike those from the [[Russian Shop]] and [[Modo]], available suits are sold with both pants and a top (jacket and shirt/turtleneck, with an occasional tie). However, certain slacks and footwear are still sold separately.

Note that certain articles of Perseus clothing differ between the console and PC versions. These include the "turtleneck" suits, which are replaced in the PC version by three-button jacket and vest suits; the generic three-piece suit, the jacket of which is unbuttoned in the console versions, but buttoned up in the PC version; and the loafers and Suede Bucks, which are replaced in the PC version by Oxfords and Suede Wingtips, respectively. Their colors remain generally consistent.
 
   
 
In relation to his seemingly fashionable behavior, Marcus can be scared off easily and has a high-pitched voice. If Niko harms him, he runs off and the security guard attacks Niko starting a fight. It is possible to kill the cashier and the guard by pushing them into the shelves and tables in the store and the player will not gain any [[Wanted Level in GTA IV|wanted stars]] for killing them. However, the game will still chide the player, stating "You cannot buy clothes if there is nobody alive to man the cash register. Control yourself."

This can be done by purchasing clothes from either shop while wearing the Perseus suit, which replaces part of the suit with the purchased clothing, but leaves the other part behind. This can be also accomplished in the [[wardrobe]], by selecting a full suit and accepting to wear it, then re-entering the wardrobe and navigating through other purchased clothing (when navigating through the wardrobe, search through the clothing to the right, this will avoid re-selecting a full suit.

Perseus is a clothing store in the HD Universe of the Grand Theft Auto series that sells expensive suits and other high-end clothes and accessories.

Description

Grand Theft Auto IV

It is one of only three accessible clothing chains in Liberty City where the player can purchase clothes in GTA IV, the other two being the Russian Shop and Modo, but it is the most upscale high-end clothes shop available to the player in the game. These stores are not accessible in The Lost and Damned, The Ballad of Gay Tony, or Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars.

Being a top-of-the-range business, Perseus has an elegant appearance inside and out. The store has no Cash Registers. There are two rows of clothing and some additional clothing hanging on the wall.

Certain missions, such as "Final Interview", "Three Leaf Clover", "Undertaker", "Pegorino's Pride" and "Mr. & Mrs. Bellic", require Niko to be wearing clothing from Perseus.

The player can download a Perseus theme for Niko's phone via Vipluxuryringtones.com. The player also gets a text message from Brucie Kibbutz soon after unlocking Algonquin, following "Blow Your Cover", telling him to "look VIP" and buy some clothes from Perseus.

The Radio Station that plays inside of all stores is Jazz Nation Radio 108.5. If the player manages to glitch into the stores in Episodes from Liberty City, the station will be set to Electro-Choc instead.

Girlfriends Carmen Ortiz and Alex Chilton prefer Niko to wear clothes from Perseus.

Staff

Inside is Marcus [1], who serves as the customer assistant, and a security guard.

The guard will tell Niko to "use it or put it away" if he has a weapon equipped. The model for the guard is reused as the man outside the LC Fight Club, and Abdul Amir's bodyguard during "Caught With Your Pants Down".

Marcus' attitude towards the player depends on how the player is dressed. He remarks favorably towards any article of clothing that the player wears that has been bought from Perseus. While generally commenting negatively towards other forms of clothing. For example, should the player wear a Perseus suit with boots from the Russian Shop, Marcus may praise the suit, but recommends changing the shoes to some from Perseus.

In relation to his seemingly fashionable behavior, Marcus can be scared off easily and has a high-pitched voice. If Niko harms him, he runs off and the security guard attacks Niko starting a fight. It is possible to kill the cashier and the guard by pushing them into the shelves and tables in the store and the player will not gain any wanted stars for killing them. However, the game will still chide the player, stating "You cannot buy clothes if there is nobody alive to man the cash register. Control yourself."

Grand Theft Auto V

The clothing shop reappears in Los Santos in GTA V, featuring a store located on Portola Drive at the corner of Dorset Drive, with multiple billboards around Los Santos. This shop is inaccessible and the player is unable to buy anything from their store.

Tracey's custom number plate on her yellow Issi reads "P3RSEUS."

Grand Theft Auto Online

In the Ill-Gotten Gains Part 1 update in Grand Theft Auto Online, a Perseus themed vinyl wrap becomes available for the Enus Windsor. A T-Shirt bearing a fake Perseus logo can also be collected from Special Crate Drops during the update Weekend Special. [2].

Influence

Perseus is based on Versace and Hermès. Evidence for a Versace link can be seen on the Versace logo, which features the head of Medusa. In Greek mythology, Perseus was a hero who killed Medusa by beheading her, and he also appears on the Perseus logo in game. The Perseus logo is stylistically very similar to the Hermès logo, and both brands are named after characters in Greek/Roman mythology.

The brand's Portola Drive location is based on a distinctive building at 201 North Rodeo Drive with a dome-topped circular glass and steel circular display tower in the corner which was occupied by a Bulgari store at the time the game was being developed, but has since been replaced by a Rimowa store with some exterior design changes.

Clothing in Grand Theft Auto IV

Main article: /Clothing in GTA IV

Unlike those from the Russian Shop and Modo, available suits are sold with both pants and a top (jacket and shirt/turtleneck, with an occasional tie). However, certain slacks and footwear are still sold separately.

Note that certain articles of Perseus clothing differ between the console and PC versions. These include the "turtleneck" suits, which are replaced in the PC version by three-button jacket and vest suits; the generic three-piece suit, the jacket of which is unbuttoned in the console versions, but buttoned up in the PC version; and the loafers and suede bucks, which are replaced in the PC version by oxfords and suede wingtips, respectively. Their colors remain generally consistent.

When the player purchases a full suit at Perseus (a suit that includes both a jacket and trousers) the game automatically changes Niko's previous separate clothing items (both tops and bottoms) to those of the full suit. However, parts of the full suits can still be combined with clothes from Modo or the Russian Shop.

This can be also accomplished in the wardrobe, by selecting a full suit and accepting to wear it, then re-entering the wardrobe and navigating through other purchased clothing (when navigating through the wardrobe, search through the clothing to the right, this will avoid re-selecting a full suit. If the player does select another full suit by accident, leave the wardrobe and re-enter it).
