  1. I loved that stat. Passionately. Amount of handbrake turns controlled would be better considering how driving works in this... I played San Andreas recently, handbrake turns in that were hilariously easy.
  2. best tip ever. I've been getting my smithing up (93 as we speak, with all but daedric and dragon armor perks unlocked), but I've been losing money near the end, cause I got lady and wouldn't go out killing. I hadn't though of enchanting stuff... I'll be a billionaire now!
  3. I knew what that'd be before I clicked, lol. I remember videos from Oblivion, doing the same to the annoying fanboy at the Arena.
  4. Ooh and then we can go to Quincy to learn to dance for Flannigan's Ball!
  5. Sadly, driving an 18 wheeler is what I'm most looking forward to. I did it all over San Andreas, it was so easy to RP with. I definitely think it'll be back from what we've seen in the trailer. And this is related to the 18 wheeler, if it took this long or more to get from one side to the other, I'd be so happy. I would drive a Linerunner (wait, they're not Linerunner's in IV, are they? you know what I mean) around the map and through Algonquin's freeway all the time in IV.
  6. I'm an empirecloak. As in, they're all fucking idiots. My dude is a Nord, cause I only like whites. 56 hours in at the moment, that is all. *goes back into Skyrim coma*
  7. Luis was a little bit gay for Tony. I was little bit gay for Tony. Amazing man. I want the new character to be from Boston (Massychusets, not the shit one near me). Love that accent. And he can be into good music.
  8. I don't understand why you'd have to use racial slurs any way...? They're derived from the name of a race... Do you mean spic? Ie. Italian?
  9. One page maximum for length. Good points in here, but if you want your CV to actually be read, you've only got a page to do it in. Short, relevant, impressive points. Nobody needs to know that you 'thoroughly enjoy meeting new people and sucking dick, after cups of tea and circle jerking for 3 minutes and 45 seconds. Funny story, I only last 3 minutes and 45 seconds. All stems from a horrid experience I had at my last job where I got caught masturbating into my managers cup of coffee. He liked Blue Mountain, which is, as you obviously know, rather expensive. I just thought it would be funny to add a little jazz to the mix.' This is what I've done. This is why you need to employ me, this is what I can do for you. And only relevant to the job you're going for. Going for 6 jobs with 6 different roles? You're writing 6 CV's. You can keep the bare bones, but it has to change for each position. I've had more experience in writing successful CV's than I care to remember. I had to bullshit my way into this job trojan horse style. I knew I could do it and I was qualified, but I'd never dealt with any of the systems we use here and failed the fuck out of the technical test. Made the CV look boss (creative director goes down a treat..), got an interview with the Team Leader who grilled me for an hour and by the end of it he told me I had the job as soon as his higher up's gave him the go ahead for a new position. Now I'm redoing our website (internal and bound by the laws of Google Sites, so not half as impressive as it sounds... I cry at night over that one, but it wins me big brownie points) and as soon as I hit 6 months he's putting me on every training course he can so I can move up and out of the service desk... you just gotta love what you're going for, or at least be able to put up with it to get to the place you love. I learnt the core of our systems in a month, with no experience prior. Now I'm rambling. Don't do that.
  10. Haha, being Australian I don't think I could take an australian lead seriously. Having said that, back story for an ex sas is easy, whole group of them go mercenary, theyve been running around for awhile doing that when a job comes up which requires them to kill woman or children or something, he refuses (cause we all love our feux morally righteous characters) and convinces the team to pull out. The paying person gets pissed off, kills most of your crew and your family so you set off all lone ranger to find him and f*ck the world on the way. GTA 4 had that in it... sort of. Remember when he's talking to Faustin's wife? I think it was her any way. When he poured his heart out.
  11. Come on man. It's a common fact that all Rockstar beta testers sit off to the left. Ask Psy about the trips they take him on. They're demand you sit off to the left. It's the only way to play these days.
  12. Guys, official information always comes in the form of broken Engrish. It's Rockstar's new approach.
  13. I did that with Skyrim and it felt so much better. I'll preorder V, but for in store collection. ^^ This, if I ever was going to preorder. ShopTo are on the ball.
  14. Ooh I like. Have you tried to push it any further than high yet? What screen and speakers? Ugh that'd be amazing. I'd read them, all day, everyday. They make me feel like I'm watching from behind a bush. 15 minutes 'til home time.
  15. I know I'm really fucking late, but you know they're designed like that here. 'Crumple zones' (which I imagine smaller cars there have too), designed to take the brunt of the impact so you're not thrown around like a cat in a blender. I'd still rather be driving a Challenger though. Or a '78 Corvette Pace car. Asshamed.
  16. I'll probably be an Orc or High Elf. I'm still saving up for my PC for this so I'm getting it on PS3 for the time being. Massy, your Dup story put hair on my chest and then made it stand up. I bought my copy from Game this morning and I have it in the office with me Stuck here til 7pm Massy what's your desktop set up? have you already posted it anywhere? I'm spending the day today reading reviews online, little stories like Massy's (third [fourth] Massy of this post) and I'm gonna open up the case, give the booklet a good smelling and then read it!
  17. suht up armeny, he obviously means ammunation which is in previous GTA games! this leak is genuine. Except for the part where it's bullshit. I wouldn't mind being called Ray though.
  18. Will Grand Theft Auto 5 Match Up to Saints Row 3? The Debate. The Grand Theft Auto series is a fulfilling, storyline driven borderline (albeit minor) role play game that improves with every installment and every new story that Rockstar create. New game, new lead character and a whole new world and story to explore. That's the path it's taking, regardless of what Rockstar say - they always use the typical sales patter. Marketing. Saints Row is a game based in the same, expanding city where you play a character based on whoever you want him to be within the confines of Volition's character creation. I find halcyon skinned female with a penis, leather assless chaps and some form of animal mask works best. You're in a gang and the story line that's included is based on being as gangsta as possible, maybe breaking a few people out of jail on the way. Outside of the story the series is based on causing as much havoc and mayhem in Steelport and playing the ton of minigames they have. They can't be compared.
  19. Duff beat me to the punch. It's marketing. Rockstar love to throw around phrases like that... Hell, their emailing list title is "ROCKSTAR PROPAGANDA". It's just how they compose themselves. Look at the trailer. There are new elements, but it's not a 'radical reinvention'. That's what I speculate, at least. Also - Wu Zi Mu.. Stick around.
  20. I like the idea of parking anywhere on your property and it staying there. I'm not massively fussed on the limit, 2 or 3 to a property would please me. I like the limits. They keep the realism.
  21. Sony always impress with their hardware... You pay for the quality that comes with the name. But then again you said "some people" and tbh I agree with you a little there. I really like the look of it but for the time being I'm getting a Logitech Z-506 5.1 system. It's only £70 and it's like a modified version of their PC 5.1 systems, all built in to the sub, but it has extra inputs and the surround sound is "3D".. so I'm not expecting much in the ways of true surround but then again, I don't particularly fuss over the 5.1 element> I just know logitech does loud and clear really well in my bedroom/office set up, and the center and satellite speakers will just be a nice added extra I can place on the back of my bed (not the center speaker, silly) for extra oomph. I needed to get something for Skyrim. There's no way I'm playing that through my TV.
  22. He's hilarious and he replies to most people that comment on his wall. His descriptions on his art are priceless.
  23. dat suspension Shit this isn't the asylum. Uh yeah, interesting... The suspension is way too real for GTA though.
  24. Feature drip feed, much like Apple and their products... we'll love V, but there'll be things we're still wishing for.
  25. Yeah, it's their "universe". I found it funny that it was less than 5 minutes and I got a mention of Los Santos.. They're watching us and controlling our radios.
