greatest video game/related movies:
silent hill (just for mirroring the source material so well)

music: i love all kinds of musak but my favorite is hardcore and hip-hop. but i also listen to reggae, bluegrass, punk, old rock and roll, jazz, blues, fucking everything we as humans can perform well. My favorite band is AC/DC (Bon Scott era). And Tupac Shakur (The best fucking ever) and A Tribe Called Quest (smooth shit, like real smooth).


my greatest inspiration: Nicola Tesla.
i slowly turn the heat up in the shower until it doesn't go no more.

was it worth it?
Qraze | 6:48 AM on 05.19.2008 15 comments


I bought gta on friday. I have been playing it nonstop, in fact the first day i was overwhelmed with invites (sorry shipero) and just wanted to get the controls learnt so saturday and sunday i've been signed out just playing so i get no distractions from the story. Well, whatever the exact dollar amount that this game finally ended up being, I truly feel like it shows it. The animations, the cut-scenes, the radio, the tv, all of them are so serious and twhacked out that this is just the cat's meow of video games...thus far. So a simple question is all i'm asking, do you feel like it was worth it? (And I haven't even done anything multi-player yet).#1_in_the_hood_GTA??

My bricked 360 is coming back today. I bought GTA IV in anticipation yesterday. Now where is that damn UPS truck? Goddamn vague times "Your package will be delivered between 8am and 7pm. Someone must be home to sign for the package"

Debatable if it's worth it for me. I play games because I like games. I don't play games because they are dating sims/fake TVs/examples of bad interface design.

Story is top notch, but the game is just so frustrating.

Short answer: No.

Single Player: I was sick of the game by the 5-10 hour mark, but I forced myself to finish it. I have too many gripes to mentions but I'll stick with a couple. Mission structure stinks with lots of repeating objective and at the end of the game you don't feel like you're in a different place than where you started. You're still just another scumbag living in liberty city.

Multiplayer: Fail of epic proportions. Co-op missions are too few, general GTA public matches are filled with griefers, party system is awful, lobby system stinks, riddled with bugs.

Only good thing I can say is that they did a great job at modeling New York City to give it a good feel (provided you didn't look for flaws and just drove around).

My 360 was kind enough to RRoD on me a month before GTAIV was released. It was a close call but it came back with a little time to spare.

I think the game is worth it. It is the first GTA I want to play for the story and not just cause mayhem.

Story mode: yes
Multi-player: Sucks balls. Why the fuck would R* leave in the "After character falls down for whatever reason it takes 2 minutes to get up" in MP. I get hit by some random AI car in deathmatch, other team just shoots me on the ground while my dumbass character tries to figure out gravity.
On top of that, if a friend and I are standing facing each other, aimed at each other(not moving to test bullet detection), and I have an assault rifle to his pistol, how the fuck does he kill me? Even when I've fired first in some cases. That on top of not being able to do ranked co-op missions together make the multiplayer a huge pile of shit. I'm going back to Condemned2 dammit.

Personally I was sick of GTA halfway through Part 3.

well, i'm diggin it. even when i had to retry a mission ten times i still kept at it. most games i can usually only play for about an hour then my adhd kicks in and i'm bored, i lose myself and time in this game. only other games i can do that in are final fantasy, mgs, god of war, and gran turismo. very few games i can get not bored with so when that happens i know i like it even if i haven't realised it yet. #1_in_the_hood_G!!

I wasn't even going to pick this game up for a few months... but I'd been reading about how amazing it was from everywhere, so I was getting more and more excited about it. Then, I saw it on a Tuesday that I'd called off of work at Wal-Mart. Walking past it, I knew then that I had to have it. It wasn't until later that I realized that the Tuesday that I had picked it up on was launch day... And I've been loving it ever since!
