  1. LA noire only feels like GTA, but it's not even half as close to the real deal that RDR was... it's far from it...

    have you ever played, point 'n click games, the sam & max series, or read choose your own adventure books?? it's 80% more like that, and 20% GTA... maybe it's more 70/30 but either way, it's different... RDR was more 80% similar, which gave GTA gamers the GTA vibe... you might only get subtle feelings with LA noire but, it's still there... it just takes a backseat to the gripping story and cunning detective skills you'll be dealing with on a constant basis...

    i don't expect a lot of GTA gamers to like this... but for me, i love "sam & max" detective games so, i am excited... and the fact that it "feels" like GTA and RDR (because of the RAGE engine) is just the cherry on top :D...

    Yeah i'm pretty sure I said somewhere before this game was a mix of Sam & Max Hit the Road, Grim Fandango and GTA IV.


  2. RDR was closer to GTA than this will be in terms of gameplay and that had the same problem, everyone was raving over it then it got forgotten about a few months after release. Since this is so different from GTA it'll probably have a worse fate.


  3. This is getting intense. Does anyone need any tin foil? I brought extra.

    I need 3 inch thick aluminium sheets, I'm gonna explode.

    You'll only explode when the CIA hitman who's been trailing you puts a .338 Lapua Magnum round between your eyes, because you clearly know too much to be allowed to live.


  4. ZOMG! LOOK IF YOU TAKE THE LETTERS FROM HIS NAME AND REARRANGE THEM YOU GET THE FOLLOWING MESSAGES PROVING HE'S NOT DEAD!!

    A Solid Man, Bane - Um, I dunno...

    In Alan M's Abode - He's holed up with someone by this name.

    Nano Miles - Baad - Baad (or Bada) could refer to various locations in India, Russia or elsewhere.

    A Bad Man, Son - Lie - YES EXACTLY!

    Mo' Bananas Lied - THIS PROVES IT!

    Now you create your own hidden messages: AAABDEILMNNOS - GO!

  5. Plus, the mad dash to bury him in the ocean... pfft.

    Initially, also I found that strange. But remember that to many people he's some sort of Jesus figure and a grave on land would attract them like flies are attracted to horse shit. We don't need that to happen.

    Who gives a shit if he was to have a shrine in his honour? They could have buried him in a booby-trapped grave, when there's enough of his admirer's standing over it BOOM! My guess is they just didn't want anyone digging the body up to do DNA tests themselves. The general feeling/acceptance around that part of the world is that he died in 2001, if you've been watching their news channels you would hear them saying this story is a load of bull. They're not denying he's dead, just denying that he died recently.

    Loving how the story keeps changing, that's why you should concentrate on what is said on the news when it's breaking. Once the 'official' story comes out the media latch onto it and hope you forget about what you heard in the first few hours. Like 9/11, do you remember the reports that vans packed with explosives had been stopped by police and a group of Israelis arrested? The Israelis then getting released and going on TV and saying they were there to document the event? The firefighters, police and numerous other credible witnesses saying bombs were going off in the basement that hadn't even been hit by a plane yet? The people who were trapped in Building 7 after a bomb went off and trapped them in there for hours? People saying cars were exploding in the street? You didn't hear these eyewitness accounts on the news again after the 'official' story started getting reported.

    Bin Laden used a woman as a human shield? Now they say he didn't. Bin Laden fired at the SEAL team? Now they say he didn't. The order was to kill not capture? Now they say it was kill or capture. They knew for certain Bin Laden was in the house? Now they say they had to ask his wife when they got there. Hilary Clinton saying the Pakistanis co-operarated with them in the operation? Now they say the Pakistani's knew nothing of it. A Pakistani official saying it was a joint operation? Now the Paki's are fuming that they weren't told about it. Bin Laden was killed last week and the body was back in the US? It goes on.

    The first few hours of reporting is where you're likely to hear how things actually went down, some of it might be confusion but it often makes more sense than the bullshit that becomes the official story later on.

    Just sayin'

    You should listen to Immortal Technique bro.


  6. I got an email from PSNetwork last night telling me my details had been compromised. I must have deleted it by mistake (was drunk) and now I'm not sure if it was telling me my details HAD been compromised or they were just saying it in a broader sense. Anyone else get an email?

    Edit: Found it. Must have read it wrong, looks like a standard email to everyone. Phew *Wipes sweat from brow* :rolleyes:

    "Although we are still investigating the details of this incident, we believe that an unauthorized person has obtained the following information that you provided: name, address (city, state/province, zip or postal code), country, email address, birthdate, PlayStation Network/Qriocity password and login, and handle/PSN online ID."

    Yeah I got the e-mail too. Seemed pretty generic.


  7. I'm gonna go completely off topic here and introduce myself!

    Hi i'm Dan, until 5.30pm today i still officially work with Psy, after then i'm jumping ship and getting another job closer to home. Psy just wouldn't shut up about how much money he makes off his websites, that was my main reason for leaving.

    As for me it's pretty much the same as Psy, web developer, PHP and all that jazz. I've already graduated from uni so i taught Psy pretty much everything he knows.

    Love games, especially the Assassin's Creed series, can't miss out GTA though! Would say i'm more a PC gamer than a console one and that's about it!

    Welcome. I see you are both Batman and Postman. Do you also work as Postman because Batman's salary is too low, or do you also work as Batman because transporting mail don't give you an adrenaline rush?

    Since when did you become the comedian around here, which girl are you trying to chat up now? :D
