SO AWESOME

the attention to detail is near-masturbatory

[Colonel]

Brilliant.

[Jerome Scuggs]

i'm sort of getting annoyed by the vehicles. driving anywhere is roughly 25% forward movement and 75% out-of-control sliding.

edit: but you know it's really nice that when that gets annoying i can just chill on a corner and snipe the dudes who ride on the back of the garbage trucks

edit 2: but then when i steal the recently vacated garbage truck i get annoyed again

[Mr. 420]

THiS GAME ROCKS! :wub: B) :grin:

yeah, one thing thats way different about this game is the driving. It's not as much pick-up-as-much-speed-as-you-can-and-slam-on-your-breaks. You actually gotta pace yourself a bit, especially since it is like NYC, lot of roads crossing and cars, speed is your enemy! Once you get the hang of driving, its a lot better. This is way better than III, Vice City, and San Andreas in the game play so far...

so i played it some more...and the funniest thing by far is becoming friends with little jacob....this dude, when he is in the car with you, smokes so much ganja, it actually comes out of ur windows like mad smoke....its so dope omg...anyway, fucked my girl ig like 5 times already....

missions are fairly easy and i suggest passing the game without any cheats because i think its way more fun now...yes i cheated in every previous game but this game is just to perfect to ruin by cheats...its actually fun to work for money so i can take my bitch on a date or get drunk with my cousin...drunk driving is mad fun - the police...

anyway, to make shit clear, since im a Serb born in Bosnia, i gotta rep Niko...its safe to say he is NOT RUSSIAN....because i understand everything he says underbreath in another language....war infested eastern europe they talk about is definetly bosnia/serbia war...and to make it more specified, when Roman says how Niko hates Albanians, it conferms hes a serbian soldier who fought against bosnia and recent albania who took over kosovo....

btw...on those spilers, they say Zdravo Burazeru...Zdravo does mean hello in russian as well as Serbia/Bosnia, however, Buraz is a term only used in Bosnians (makes sense that some serbs do live in bosnia, like i was) and it means "brother" in slang form...serbians use the word "Brate" instead of bosnian term "buraz". Burazeru is spelled that way because its refering to someone.

i know im just filling u with nonsense and u dont care BUT! its just a small step to stop people from spreading false rumors saying hes russian.

also...the language u see inside game on those russian stores...its an alphabet only used in Serbia and Russia...called Chirilitza aka Cirilica

[Squeezer]

best game ever.

I had never been "just cant put it down" sucked into a game, but it's happened twice now.

The first was Mass Effect...and now this. I'm never going to finish my hw.

[DankNuggets]

so basically if i go buy this game (and a 360 to update my xbox status) you're saying I'll quit continuum in favor of it's orgasmic gameplay and graphics? I must say I'm a bit apprehensive...











I'll buy it in a month or two :greedy: whenever i can afford it all :greedy:

[Reaver]

Rented it a couple days ago, just got to play it now, it's definitely worth buying. I was liking the storyline and everything, but I was curious about the online, and it's good too. I like the cops n' crooks game the most so far. My only disappointment with the game so far has been the online lag, which might actually be other people's poor connections and not so much their servers, but I'm not really sure.

As for driving, yeah it's harder but it's also more realistic than the previous GTA's. Driving takes much more skill now, even breaking properly is trickier now. The gas throttle is actually sensitive, if you're in a powerful vehicle you don't want to pull the right trigger all the way back unless you actually want to do a burn out.

Overall I give it a 10/10, I think it was a wise choice to decrease the overall size of the game map and then add much more detail.

[Money]

wow now we get to hear from royce on how he and niko are similar cuz they're both eastern european douchebags


nice game tho

[Dack Falu]

Just beat it earlier today and I'm going to go for the other ending tomorrow. Great game. The little I tried of multiplayer was also great.

ProTip: Turning on subtitles will allow you to understand the foreign stuff.

[Mr. Peanuts]

I have EXAMS IN TWO WEEKS.shit.

My Parcelforce package was last seen at Preston Depot this morning, fuck I could drive down there in 20 minutes and pick it up myself.

Yeah, the conversations with Little Jacob are still ... a bit incoherant, though, lol.

this is disturbing

if you beat this game in < a week w/o cheat codes rockstar is lacking...
I can't remember how many hrs (100-150?) it took to beat San Andreas w/o codes but I know it took almost a year of casual playing.

Is the game that much shorter? or is it more side mission oriented? I remember there being 100+ missions in San Andreas with dozens of side missions.

so i guess what i'm asking is did you really beat it already? if so what is your completeness % ?

How much of the game is online material ?

[Veloce]

I really haven't been playing it excessively and I was 20% through about 1-2 days ago. Thats 2 hours of play a day max.

Then again I've played all the previous GTAs and picked up on this one pretty fast. Since you don't lose guns (or much money) when you get arrested or knocked out, you can get a lot done as far as missions in a short amount of time. Taxis are great and you can pretty much teleport around the map, not to mention after you fail a mission you get a phone call/text and can instantly restart the mission.
