Will look some of you all up later.

Greenlit had this to say about Cuba:
Best console multiplayer yet.
We all up in this shit.
Black done stoled the 360 back into the other room to finish his single player game
A few missions do stand out in negative ways though - some were just pure frustration.

Blackened was naked while typing this:
The Heatesqe missions where you're clearing through streets and alleys while the cops pile on top of you could have been done more. There's only about 3-4 of those types.
I am about to do one of those Packie's 3rd mission that I hear so much about from people. Hear about how awesome it is, etc.
I can't wait. Stupid 20 page paper for school keeping me from obsessively playing GTA4

Blackened got all f'ed up on Angel Dust and wrote:
Also, the majority of the car chase missions were pretty sweet too, due to some of the scripted shit they threw in there.
I loved the biker chase. The one that got creamed by the subway train made me laugh so fucking loud Skaw fucked around with this message on 05-05-2008 at 08:01 PM.

After giving some more thought to the game, I realized that Three Leaf Clover really is the best mission in the entire game and from that point on mission quality seems to deteriorate as does the story and characters. The McReary family is really the last time you get to experience an interesting group of characters that are fun to listen and watch.
The more I think about it, the more I'm certain they mishandled the ball for the last half/third of the game. The missions begin to blur together except for the occasional Heat/Chase mission that stands out and makes you happy you're playing the game again. Even the huge decision making moments at the very ass-end of the game seem misplaced and awkward.
At least the game still has fun multiplayer and huge "fuck around" potential. Too bad they couldn't make the end of the game as strong as the first half.

God damnit, you're making me not want to finish the game, as that's the mission i just completed

Theres some stand out ones, like the helicopter chase one with Jacob shooting Rockets after lighting up.
But yeah, none of the other characters come close to being as awesome as the McReary's are.

Sakkra had this to say about dark elf butts:
Been holding off on the multiplayer until I finish the story, but is it possible to do the GTA Race mode while drunk?
No. Can't drink or do any activities in multiplayer.

Zair Model 2000 was programmed to say:
Someone please post about their disk repeatedly freezing and eventually killing their xbox. I refuse to suffer alone.
I've had zero stability problems with this game.

Zair obviously shouldn't have said:

The DRE problem on my 360 is bad enough that I've considered trying to RRoD it in hopes that MS may give me a refurbed 360 instead. I've only had a single DRE with GTA4. Talonus fucked around with this message on 05-06-2008 at 06:36 PM.

What? No it's not. I just did it and I'm at like 43% with plenty of missions on the map

Out of a possible 10, Zair scored a straight 1 with:
"conservative humorist" lolAlso, I got the three red rings after a few tries. Then I restarted the console a couple times and it went away
I got to watch a bit of the TV in the apartment before the first freeze, and watched a bit of Gervais standup, which was weird.
I'd suggest sending your machine back to Microsoft, sans Hard Drive, anyway. They'll replace the whole unit and bump your warranty back up. Red Rings will always come back. Always
quote:You're right, I got the two missions confused. Probably because they're the only two I can remember with helicopters and rockets.
Kegwen.

There's another mission like that? Hell yes.

Which I lost the first time because of the message that says "FLY LOW AND STAY CLOSE!"
I'm certain that this bizarre mixture of fabian socialism and redneck bumper stickers that the ostensibly "right wing" radio caricatures exhibit is what the average democrat voter thinks conservatives actually believe. I just find it funny that they didn't even get the stereotype right.

I'm not sure where you got that I was complaining. I never get into a car without changing to the public radio station, it's hilarious.
I just keep thinking "oh christ is this what the nutty left really thinks the other side of the fence believes lol"
I'm a political junkie. I probably listen to more liberal news sources than most people do news sources of any variety, foremost among them being the politicians themselves. I listen to Thom Hartman and the Lionel show on Air America, I read the Daily KOS, a few articles from the Huffington Post now and again, and the Something Awful front page (when I'm looking for especially blind and subtle vitriol). And of course ABC, NBC, and CBS. And believe me, it's all hilarious - especially c-span where you can get it straight from the tap.
It all makes me wonder if you guys really have any idea what you're supporting. I try to tell you sometimes, but I'm the CONSERVATIVE NUTBALL LOL so of course my opinion isn't valid. Maradon! fucked around with this message on 05-12-2008 at 07:04 PM.
I'm liking GTAIV a lot better than San Andreas so far, although I kinda miss playing it on the computer rather than the TV.
Go fuck some hookers and see some titties in a strip bar.
