Friday Night Fights: GTA IV edition, part deux photo

The general consensus seems to be that Grand Theft Auto IV won't stop being fun or grow old anytime soon. There's a seemingly endless amount of things you can do in not only the single-player portion of the game, but in the multiplayer modes too, which is why we'll be playing it tonight for hours on end.

Whether you're trying to beat a co-op mission or getting a group of people together in free mode to fly helicopters high above Liberty City's tallest skyscrapers, only to jump out and attempt to land on civilians, there's a tremendous amount of fun to be had.

As always, hit the comments to tell us what you'll be playing tonight, as well as any games you'd like to host for Friday Night Fights.

[Thanks, CaffeinePowered, Professor Pew, and Y0j1mb0!]

For some reason, I always have problems connecting to GTA games.

"Unable to connect to game session. Returning to single player..."

Hardcore fail. The only way it works is if I host.

Professor Pew at 05/16/2008 20:20
It's being gay, I dunno how to fix it because it works for most ppl but not for some. We had it during EUFNF too and when we switched hosts, other ppl couldn't join again...

Hopefully P0WER GL0VE can host too and solve it that way :/

I can host if need be, I have a decent connection and I have no problems with any other game.

I'm thinking about trying to host some Dino-Run, probably next week. Would anyone be interested? Probably around 10 or 10:30 (EST), before AMMO. I realize it isn't perfect for FNF, but it does allow for private games and I think it might work, albeit in small groups.

I realize I'm probably not going to get much of a response right now, but I figured I'd throw that out there.

they're just about to start a 3 hour test of the firealarm... and I have to stay at my seat to monitor the systems but there's a siren at like 4 meters from my head :-( I'll be suffering through loads of PAIN :-(

It's 7:40, I'm gonna call it a night. There's still people playing though, so just check any of the GT's if you don't have any GTA friends online.

Also: Y is the magic grenade button.

After tons of failed attempts at joining, finally figuring out that my xbox was listed in my router as some stupid symbol after disconnecting everyone else from my network and putting it in the DMZ with no success, direct connecting my 360 to my modem finally worked.

Shouldn't have to do that shit when every other game works fine through my router.

Still was fun though... yay helicopter fights!
