This game looks awesome! I enjoyed GTA3, Vice City, and San Andreas but since I don\'t want to cough up the cash for a PS3 it doesn\'t look like I\'ll be playing this one. I remember beating Vice City in 5-6 days when I was in college. My trusty 3\' kept me focused...and made me lazy so I didn\'t go to class. Enjoy Leith!

I guess there has been some reports that folks are locking up in the 1st sequence of the game and rockstar has no fix yet
I haven\'t even finished San Andreas. I stopped playing a console around that time. Might be time for an upgrade.

I never understood the move to put sex in video games instead of (before) fully responsive enviorments.
Ie: There were allusions to sex in the previous GTAs but neither of them had "desctrutable" envoriments, or envorimental hazards produced by explosions/gunshots, etc.
I haven\'t played the new one yet, so I don\'t know if its in there.

Why did you do mail order? Did you find a great deal?
I think I might have to pull the trigger and pick up a 360 and GTA IV.

not sure what jim got in on, but i do know that Best Buy is offering a $50 GC with the purchase of GTAIV and an XBOX360 system. this probably ends saturday though.
amazon is offering $30 off instantly with the purchase of GTAIV and an XBOX360 system. better than the BB deal since it\'s instant $, and not a GC, plus no tax and free shipping. not a flaming hot deal, but still pretty decent if you\'re in the market.
for the amazon deal, click here and then click on the Experience GTA IV on the Xbox 360 section at the top.

had a blast last night with leith and jim, even though we were just driving around causing mayhem. won\'t be on tonight though, due to the lakers & bar. definitely tomorrow after LOST though.

Post by: leith on May 07, 2008, 08:26:13 pm
Lakers should be over by 10 or so my time and I may be in shape to play a little bit but tomorrow night would be a better bet as I have to get up way too early to put in a rig for Duran Duran in a Casino Parking Lot.

It was a blast but if there were cops to try and stop us. Now that would have been a kicker!
