  1. i also can't work out the time difference but i'm trying and will vote when i know
  2. i like ours, purely because i can imagine the size of that beast when you come in to land on the helipad on the amunation building in LS to pimp out your hardware. the cropbuster one is also great, purely for the level of detail it shows, the reflection of the sun on the water and the plane just sets it off perfectly
  3. that duel rotor helicopter (guessing it the new cargobob) look like it could be fun, wonder what happens if you only take out 1 rotor on it
  4. i'm looking at the blue print and sort of mid right near where it gets cut off, there is what looks like something i would consider a nascar style oval track
  5. indeed. i found the cops in gta iv lacking, no big deal if you had them. i didn't like that, in vice city and san andreas they at least had some degree of challenge to them.
  6. in a sense dropping the army from wanted levels does bring it down to more realistic levels, i don't think i've ever seen the us military used to catch or kill just one guy who started by killing a cop on the street. realistic cops would be a great idea so long as you keep it with in reason, by realistic i refer to tactics and general A.I. mainly, aswell as speed, as said a ferrari isn't going to be caught by a cruiser on the highway, nor would they risk a road block with them speeds. from what i've read about the cops in gta v they have upped their A.I. and realistic items a bit, keeping their distance for example in a shoot out, having a field of vision instead of a search area, but there are some things i would like to see implemented in the game when i get, although if they are not there i'm sure it won't matter. one is the use of spike strips, common use in real life that often ends the chase, something like this is certainly not going to act this way but i would aid in the difficulty of escape, particularly with fast cars. in a 5 start wanted level system my personal idea of how it would ramp up would be this 1 star - all foot officers will give chase in an attempt to arrest you, this would be for anything like assault, armed robbery, hit and run, etc. 2 stars - cops give chase, cop cars start following you and attempt boxing in to stop you, on foot you would have to deal with more than one cop 3 stars - at this point lethal force is authorized, cops in the street will take pot shots at you, cop cars will start attempts of the pit maneuver, spike strips are used, police helicopter is out making hiding more difficult minor road get road block placed on them 4 stars - s.w.a.t. is called in, road blocks become more intense, while on foot a helicopter comes in with s.w.a.t. teams roping down to the street or roof tops, snipers start coming in aswell, big ranger type suv's come in to ram you off the road. 5 stars - FIB take over, helicopters with armed personel on start shooting you, FIB suvs and black muscle cars come in shooting out the windows, while on foot you have something that looks like a scene in a die hard movie but that just me, by the time you get to 5 stars you should be running like fuck thinking "why the fuck did i this this was a good idea"
  7. yea i already have that aswell, knew i missed somthing out of my list, but not played it in awhile. you know now i think about it i got serveral games i've not played in ages, guess i'm going to be playing them one by one for old times sake.
  8. got it, bored in 10mins man started playing san andreas now, good enough
  9. in the last 2 days i've played the console more than i have in the last 3 months, i've had my break lol
  10. i assume you are referring to the ps3 that you didn't know i had sitting on top of my xbox next to my tv.
  11. mostly left handed. i will use my right hand for some things though, i.e the mouse on a computer
  12. i played world of tank on the pc and enjoyed it, ima have alook for the xbox beta in that case. can't play pc game anymore since my last one died and i can't afford to fix or replace it.
  13. this music makes me want to kill myself, but seeing as this is rockstar and epsilon, that may be the idea....
  14. small list of games i currently own: gta sa gta iv battlefield 3 cod - 4, bo1,mw2, mw3, bo2 fallout 3 and new vegas forza 3, 4, and horizon farcry 3 brink red dead redemption any game i end up playing will have to be on xbox 360 though.
  15. Xbox 360 - 1,581,146 Playstation 3 - 1,037,597 at base price of $60 = $157,124,580 off pre-orders alone (not including Special & Collectors editions extra fees) Not to mention there are a lot of people who don't pre-order, so day 1 sales will be huge. http://www.vgchartz.com/preorders/ that only shows how many in the us are pre-ordered, you still got the rest of the world to add onto it. You're right, I totally forgot about that. I was wondering why the numbers seemed to be low. I don't know how I forgot about it seeing it's plastered all over that source I posted. for ease of math i'm using UK Pricing of £40, seems about average for the basic game on its own. so the 2.5 from last week in the us plus the 3 million bronson said for the uk gives us 5.5 million copies in pre-orders from 2 countries. 5.5 mil x £40 = £220,000,000 even on basic game level we are talking £50 million in profit based on development costs alone, before the game is even on the market. this doesn't include the special editions of the game or the cost of manufacture of manuals, disks, etc this is why compaines get into the industry and why many of them fail, the big games (halo, gta, battlefield, call of duty, forza, grantruismo to name afew) are able to have so much spent on them, because the market is there to justify the cost. that gives the new guys the plan to join in, but because of the cost involved to get a game such as them made and on the market alot of them fall sort and underestimate how good their game is. alot of the big boys now reply heavily on their following to get sales, if the interest in battlefield for example dies, so does the future of the franchise
  16. i read that also but given what they have to work with i have my skepticism about it. i guess it the developers than make these bold claims that actualy never work out as being accrate, i remember one game stating its map would take and hour to get from one side to another and it was nothing like that.

  18. i certainly hope i am proved wrong but i can't see it being that much bigger than gta iv so these 3.5 times bigger than what ever i just don't see it.
  19. got fallout, enjoyed them alot, but skyrim doesn't interest me
  20. looking for something simple to play, the games i have now i've played to death and don't want to keep playing them anymore. but at the same time if i stop it makes gta v pointless to buy as i will loose interest. so i'm looking for a simple game to play that got some interest that will last at least a week, as i'll stop playing it after gta v is out. anyone got ideas what to go for? not played a racer in awhile so maybe something in that genre?
