  1. 4. I'm going to have to say 80's Vice City. San Andreas had a great map, especially with the desert and Venturas, But something about Vice City just felt better. I guess Vice City felt more in time, San Andreas could have applied to a number of decades while Vice City actually felt like the 80's.

    I guess it wasn't as obvious, because a lot more people know about the 80's culture of America rather than the "gangsta" era of 90's Los Angeles. If you did, you'd instantly know it was the 90s (way people dressed, cars, music) and stuff all gave it away in San Andreas.

    Personally I think a lot of people prefer the setting of Vice City because maybe they lived through it or as I said, are more familiar with it. Of course that doesn't apply for everyone, but I believe it applies for some.

    Yeah, but what really ruined it I found was the riots... There've been a lot of riots in LA, and the one I thought of during that chapter, was the 70's riots that included the Reuben Salazar murder.


  2. 1. San Andreas. Biggest map, longest story, more vehicles, San Andreas just had so much more overall

    2. Tommy Vercetti. I like his "Hostile Takeover" approach to everything he did. CJ was just a bitch.

    3. I think i'm going to have to say San Andreas, but just barely. VC was definatly more believable but some of the more over-the-top missions in SA (Black Project, Breaking the Bank) really sold it for me. I loved the Las Venturas story

    5. Tommy. He had that crazy ass Spaz-12 and could still run faster than CJ when he was fully-ripped


  3. ahh, there's the hardcore mode, but it's a fucking mod :angry:... you and your damn mods... although, i am sure ex-fanboy would like to know about that since he's playing on a PC...

    me thinks we're gonna hear about DLC soon... bethesda registered the name "redguard" last week i believe... sounds like we might be venturing to the island of redguard... well, maybe not an island, but i do hope it's a shivering isles-like expansion... while i never visited that place when i had oblivion, i always heard about how expansive the world inside the mysterious door was...

    Nah, I have my PC but I got it after Skyrim....... Really thinking about downloading the PC version though....


  4. i could perhaps see a multiplayer aspect with skyrim, but not with fallout... fallout is too much of a desolate landscape that roaming with a posse would seem out of place... if anything, 2-3 people tops... same with skyrim, i wouldn't want to see huge groups of people, it would look like a traveling army...

    i dunno, i think if you're looking for a multiplayer RPG, WoW is the way to go... i don't know how i'd feel if there were multiplayer options in skyrim or fallout... it just seems out of place to me...

    But speaking of Fallout. I'd like to see a Hardcore mode like they did for fallout in skyrim. You know, having to eat, sleep, hunt, drink etc. It wasn't bad in fallout but it was a pain in the ass when all you could find was irradiated food. Anyway, I kill every animal I see, I'd like to actually have a use for their meat....

    Oh, btw I was wrong about having daedric around lvl 25... I think I actually had elven against Krosis and I brought Lydia to distract him. About half way through the battle he fell of a cliff and gave me a massive vantage point on him.... Maybe try to repeat that?


  5. I don't see the point in 15x dagger if your going to be arching....

    And when I beat Krosis I was about lvl 25 so not to far off, I had a daedric bow with elven arrows, and I brought along lydia with a full suit of daedric armor, and a daedric sheild, sword, and bow


  6. i am building a wood elf archer... was it not hard starting out?! i am fine until i get stuck in a room full of bandits... and before someone else tells me their weapon loadout, which only applies to latter levels, keep in mind that i am only level 20... i am putting perks into the right skills, but i am also investing in others because i have to wait until the right ones reach a certain point before i can invest in them...

    i don't know, i am not really having a hard time with it, i just reached my first challenge, that's all... and it's got me thinking that this could be a regular thing at this point in the game... plus, i have still been using iron arrows because i am trying to build up collection of others... perhaps my next time i adventure out, i will bring the steel arrows...

    Well I didn't find it too hard starting out. The two main skills your going to want to focus on are Archery (obviously), and sneak. THE MOST IMPORTANT PERK on an archer is easily Steady Hand. If you can't upgrade them, I'd personally say save your skill points. Also, get your smithing up and get yourself a daedric bow as soon as you can. I went the heavyweight path, then smithed a set of Dragonscale armor and a bow. Then I built myself an alternate suit of armor with the Increase Smithing Enchantment, and upgraded all my weapons to legendary.

    As for arrows, you should try to find more powerful arrows, dwarven or steel would probably be easily accessible at your level, search shops and buy out the most powerful arrows you can, and keep any you pick up; arrows have no weight.

    Other than that all I can say is increase your sneak. Enchant some items to increase your skills if you have to. Also, try to kill Krosis and get his mask, he's located at Shearpoint (North-north east of whiterun, in the mountains). It gives a 20% increase to archery, alchemy, and lockpicking... And be sure to get a good amount of stamina (300 is what I had, before enchantments....)


  7. An all original Mercedes Benz SL-300 from the 2012 Toronto Autoshow. I got another 350 pics of various cars but this one came out really nice, plus I was really surprised to see an SL300 there...

    Is that yours? That is some serious classic car right there.

    Yes Marn. Because I have $700,000+ Dollars to spend on a mercedes

    I cost more than that sweetheart ;)

    Then I'm content with the car....


  8. poppers?? i get all kinds of primo-named shit... here's what i got at the moment... lemon cush and cinderella 99....
    for real, half the time I don't know what's going around with all the crazy names for shit. Wanna get high can mean anything these days.
