Quantcast



That clip up there is the just-released, brand-new, other-adjective-indicating-freshness reveal for the final boxart for Grand Theft Auto IV, the latest in Rockstar's series of controversial simulations based on the obvious logical progression of Tupac Shakur's stomach tattoo.

As much as the art looks real purty, after the striking multiculturalism and deep moral relevance of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas going back to a game about honkies is just counterproductive. Sure, it's dope that they're from Russia instead of Minnesota but you can't say you can tell these crackers apart. Hell, I was waiting in line at the post office yesterday and this white kid -- almost definitely a drug addict, dealer or rapist -- comes up and asks me for the time! After shouting "get a job white bread," I threatened to drag him behind my pickup truck for a few blocks to teach him a lesson about being uppity!

Don't get me wrong, I don't hate white people, I'm just sick of what they're doing to our inner cities and the way they're influencing our children with their ignorant "adult contemporary" music. I say we lock them all in jail, and if we don't have room in jail, we should invent bigger jails. They're all just going to end up there anyway!

I hate white people. What, never heard of freedom of speech?

Let's not sugar-coat things, or we'll never be able to express complex sentiments such as "I hate white people" adequately.

i can't tell if that cover is retro/(a)throwback to earlier versions or if it's just laziness

"i can't tell if that cover is retro/(a)throwback to earlier versions or if it's just laziness"

The latter. I was hoping the jump to next gen would motivate them to design something a little more unique and eye popping; definitely not this.

How do you get a white man to take his mind off money and help with world prosperity, love and peace amongst mankind?

Place "Will Give Bling For Peace" flyers at Wic appointments, SRS buildings & on the side of malt liquor bottles.

Lovely--Optimo by Liquid Liquid is the music in case anyone is wondering.

What's ironic is this (white) band's very limited -released music in NYC from the early 80's was sampled/covered pretty much wholesle with only lyrics changes -- (the song Cavern)--by Grandmaster Flash as White Lines. And, due to the inability of the small label to sue Sugar Hill, it became one of first instances of song sampling where the original artist didn't see a dime from the much bigger hit White Lines.

So, funny song to comment on the black/white divide.

You racist scum just don't know what it's like to be white. You can't understand what it's like to have to get up for work in the morning, and not know whether the bus will be on time. How could you hope to understand how it feels to not have any rhythm? I mean, we can barely even fucking TASTE fried chicken. All we ask for is a little tolerance, a little dignity. It's not our fault we were born without the hipness chromosome.

I just hate all people equally.

And thank god they went with an old-styled GTA box instead of the new single-picture ones they were considering.

So it looks just like the boxart for all the other GTA games. Does Rockstar want us to get hyped up over this?
