Yeah yeah, everyone and their dog has already said this (heck i even did with my previous blog) but i felt like saying a bit more.
The awesome thing that brought this blog on is thusly: i was heating up a pie because it was lunchtime-ish, and i was playing a little gta while i waited. But you cant eat pie and play game, right(if you can, i want to see)? And daytime tv in new zealand is crap (although im pretty sure thats the case in most places).
But no fear! I found a tv in Roman's apartment. Theres 2 or 3 channels to watch. Its essentially like the radio with some cutscenes. The show i watched was pretty good - it was about the ultra mega super rich people of Liberty City, and how they had tons of money and possessions and you dont and never will. Chloe Parker has 950 billion dollars, a 600 ft yacht that costs 3 million a day to run, and breast implants made of real rubies. A new role model for all you young ladies out there! :P
So yeah, this is the first game ive ever played where i can just go sit down and watch tv IN GAME. Perfect for eating some pie. Potato top, too, it was fucking amazing.
And theres autosaves. Yup, this is definitely the best gta game yet.
they had this idea in The Darkness, i loved setting it to some random station with indie music i'd never heard of while i did some shit just to come back to it a bit later and start playing again. helly there were a few movies playing too like flash gordon iirc.

about me
Hi, my names Andy. Im a 20 year-old student from New Zealand, learning me some Computer Science and Maths. Between that and my gaming, im a bit of a nerd, which contrasts a bit with my biking everywhere and love of Volleyball and going to the gym.
I would hate to pigeon-hole myself, but if pressed id say im a Pc gamer (if only because thats what ive spent the most money on). Whether its Crysis or Peggle, Ill play it. I like most games on all consoles, just wish i had the funds to get them all.
Pc specs:
Intel q6600
Asus P5N 650i mobo
2gb ddr2 800 ram
BFG 8800gts 640
~1tb total hd space.
Other stuff to make it all work good. I run Vista because its more stable than xp, runs nearly as well on my pc, and looks a shitload nicer. I like things to be pretty.
Currently playing: FFIX (on my psp), TF2 (as always). Giving FarCry 2, Fallout 3, and Red Alert 3 a go sometimes, can never stick with any for long though.
Other games i play:
Pc - Everything else in the Orange Box. Audiosurf. Crysis, CoD 4, fps games in general. Guitar Hero 3 (good ol usb guitar).
Psp - monster hunter 2, gba games (that i do own! Or at least my friends own, so id get a hold of them anyway...), psx games too, when i can make them work.
360 - Guitar Hero 2, Halo 3, GTA IV, Lost Odyssey, Fable 2, RockBand soon i hope.
Steam acount - ajaxender12
Steam name - Hans Olo (the snazzy lookin dude in my avatar). I change my name 2 or 3 times a week (sometimes more), normally its a variation of something with 'olo' at the end.
Audiosurf name - Hans Olo.
xbox live - ajaxender12.
