Louis Posted September 21, 2013 Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 Update, I'm about 15% complete and in all seriousness it is awesome. The plot stories are ace, the FBI rescue job with a helicopter, sniper rifle and winch with a woman about to shove an 18 inch torch where the sun don't shine.... If you have a ps3 or xbox, just get it. It was everything you fantasised about being able to do in a computer game when you were a kid. I did that mission earlier today too.. I had seen it in the trailer, I failed it the first time because I didn't realise I needed to press down to before selecting right to change the character.

Sibdane Posted September 21, 2013 Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 About 35% done now. It just keeps getting more insane of course. The size of the map alone makes it worth buying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted September 21, 2013 Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 Some things you just gotta buy when they come out... This is one. A landmark game that joins space invaders, PAC man, double dragon, kick off 2, FIFA, street fighter 2 as market changers. Currently looking at ways of influencing the stock exchange in order to make money (no tips please - gonna try and get creative) Sibdane 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louis Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 No. Usually everything in GTA is a satire or parody, what company is LifeInvader based on ? I looked on their website and it seems like a Facebook clone, yet the CEO was on the television advertising his companies' new phone which led me to believe it was Apple. It seems like it's based on both of the companies. Then someone (Lester?) mentions that the CEO makes the company use child labour and originally stole idea of the the company from his best friend. Twitter's satire is called Bleeter but that was in GTA 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louis Posted September 27, 2013 Report Share Posted September 27, 2013 GTAV is just tailing off for me now, the missions are fewer and it feels more linear now that I'm getting towards the end of the game - although out of the blue people will appear and ask you to do something(s) for them. The submarines and scuba equipment are a welcome addition. Also I like that you can crouch and hide in the bushes from the cops and they will drive past.

Sibdane Posted September 27, 2013 Report Share Posted September 27, 2013 The story mode was shorter than I thought it would be, but I still have the smaller missions that random people ask you to help with. I just love all the different vehicles you can control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 Ok. GTAV is impressive, but I'm not seeing much of a difference (character changing aside). Still very enjoyable but, and it's just me, seems overhyped. Probably because we've waited so long for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fearthainn Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 FIFA 14 anyone? I'm usually more of a Football Manager player but with Goodison being added this year I just had to buy it. I was actually a PES fan in the past but this year's FIFA is quite enjoyable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoo Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Finished GTA. It kinda' got a little stale towards the end but was finished just in time to stop it from becoming tedious. I'd rate it 9.5 overall, I'm just hoping that they have some DLC on the horizon to keep me hooked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalziel Kane Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 I played those things in the 1980s, or even 1970s where they were available, but wouldn't have an interest anymore. There was some damn good releases at the time that today just appear ridiculed and obselete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
