    The first time I played SA after getting my HDTV, I was able to see shit I'd never noticed before. Like the T-shirt icon for clothing stores is a ringer tee, and that the label on the safehouse disc icon has stripes. The previous TV was crap by comparison.

    If I rent it again, next time I'm blowing his nasal passages through his brain.

    Didn't shoot him either, anything for more trophies. I probably would have let him die regardless.

    No, just that during one of our previous sessions, in free roam afterwards, TF parked it on a roof with a sniper rifle. Sooo many headshots. So ragweed away!

    ^I hope TreeFitty heard that.

    My camping plans are going to hell. Put me down.

    Wow, I haven't walked the same since. Fuckin' hell.

    You don't wanna know what bOnEsy or I had to do for those stickers...Marney exacts a very high price...at least there's an ocean between us, I feel a little safer...

    I would have paid for the postage if you'd thrown in a T-shirt.

    Thanks for the stickers, Marney! And Psy's list is ridiculous.

    You can't apply logic to crazy people, and you can't assume R* will show up at a gaming convention just because you saw one screenshot in a commercial. Unless it's released by R*, it's bullshit. I love all the comments that include "you never know", "but still", "it just might". Keep hoping and dreaming, but it won't change anything.

    Or there, or they're. Stupid English.

    Christian Bale is a proper actor who's not afraid to go to go to dark emotional places. That might come off to some as overacting, but he's not a scenery-chewer like Nicolas Cage, who just ruins almost everything he's in. Bale has been the best and most believable Dark Knight in a feature film to date.

    The videos in the first post are the same... Nolan's Dark Knight has been the best out of all the movies so far, but the supporting cast hasn't always been up to par (Katie Holmes for one). Costumes go a long way toward creating a believable character, and it's pretty hard to take any actor in cat ears seriously.

    I don't live close enough to polar bears to make that kind of arrangement. The pancake eating contests take place in late March / early April when the maple sap is running and fresh syrup is being made. Edit: I can't commit to July 9 either. I might be lost in the woods by then.

    We gather with friends and family, have barbeques and pig out, go to fairs and amusement park rides, and have parades and eat cake with red and white icing, and listen to live bands, wear every single ridiculous patriotic thing you own, like T-shirts and hats and Canadian flag lawn chairs we sit on for the huge fireworks show at night. Then we stay up all night by the bonfire, eating bacon and drinking beer and smoking incredible weed (for those who are so inclined) and setting off huge piles of fireworks (last year we cleaned out the stock at the local store). Canada is turning 145 this year.

    What you suggest boils down to a ticking time bomb for a health meter. That works for short periods of time - like trying to make it through a building that's falling down before you die, as in Uncharted or Prince of Persia. But if that was the norm, it would take over pretty quickly, and the game becomes a constant search for health pickups, which in my opinion takes all the fun out of the sandbox.

    It's a holiday for us on Monday (Happy Canada Day!) so don't know my plans yet. If I'm home, I'm in.

    The only appropriate place would be a Cops'n Robbers mode in multiplayer, where you could pick cop uniforms and vehicles, then have to chase and kill the thieves. But it feels wrong to even have the option of playing a cop in GTA. They're for blowing up, setting on fire, and evading by spectacular driving. They definitely serve their purpose, but I don't want to be the good guy. Otherwise I'd play FPS war simulators.

    Wow. Did you crawl in headfirst and swim down to retrieve the white pills you shat out?
  21. gtagrl
    No I'm not. The sex change doesn't count. You're still you. You're still here.

    Thank you, Synch. Very valuable help for those of us new to this world.

    If I smiled it would have looked even more awkward and rapey. I guess you don't want to advertise how much you liked the raping.

    To each his own, Marcus. My point was that different music can open up new doors, and it's worth it to turn the dial and give a different station a listen beyond the default first song. You might find something you like, and it's a nice change after you've heard the same 40 songs a million times.

    I don't get why some people only listen to a single radio station the entire time. Obviously you start off with a preferred genre, but considering the number of hours I spend in-game, I'd go batshit listening to the same set over and over, even if the radio chatter varies to match "current events". Listening to other stations introduces you to new music and different artists...who you might end up liking enough to buy some of their stuff. It would be like not playing missions...it's part of the game, and I want to experience it all. For the same reason, I'm not interested in linking to my own music during the game. The sound design is a huge part of setting an epic tone, and when I hear Welcome to the Jungle or Roller or whatever, I like that it invokes the game for me. Listening to my own collection would take me out of the game, and feel less connected to the fabulous worlds that R* creates.
