S.C.G

I love the attention to detail in this game... [spoiler=]"Ok so I was driving around... I passed a car showroom, backed the fuck right up, went in, climbed over into the display area, got in the car, and drove it right off the stand and out of the fucking showroom window ^^ I was quite pleased with myself and happy at the time. I then crashed it a bit, I checked it up close as it's one of those supercars with the engine in the boot, well... the bonnet came off and it was empty just like it would be if it were irl, fricking awesome. " Yeah I'm really enjoying it atm. ^^

Hmm I think you'll enjoy it when you play it more, I'm reasonably far in now and I'm really enjoying it, theres a lot to do and regarding the story missions, you can do lots of them one after the other, all you have to do is drive to the right place, although there is quite a bit of other stuff in the game so it's easy to get sidetracked.

He's on the TV at the start of the game if you watch the comedy channel for a bit.

I love the open ended nature of this game, I just got to the second main part (won't say any more on that front but people who are allready there / have done it will know what I mean) and my current car was a cop car so... [spoiler=]"I used the onboard computer, tracked down the second most wanted in the list and did a drive by on him and his gang " It saved afterwards and I may have messed with some of the later missions, not sure but Idc cos I did it my way.

Can you get those achievements in both story mode and online free mode?

Happy Birthday Aimless

Just did another easy mission and played a few rounds of pool, got the pool achievement (win a game 10G) because the other guy potted the black and the white on the last shot.

lol probably the media should just leave it alone though but you know they won't and then there will be another special on Fox News... which will end up on YouTube... the links will get posted here... everyone will lol. The circle of life continues... or something

Congrats at becoming a Wii owner btw that copy of Mario Galaxy... if it loads on the Wii menu and you see the logo and click on it and try to load the game too fast it just won't load so it might not be a defective copy, as long as you leave it long enough for Charles Martinet to say "Super Mario Galaxy! Woohoo!" it will load. If it didn't even load in the Wii menu then just ignore this and get another copy.

Quoted For Truth! also have you tried pressing "Y" when the helicopter reaches peak altitude? I did and the result can only be described as "rofl".

a place in Helston, if you've been there within the last year or so, you'll know the place. and yeah it is "that" detailed, it's the small things in this game that I really like. ^^

A certain independant retailer in Cornwall. Edit - started playing it about half an hour ago and so far I've... [spoiler=]"watched TV >> seriously how many shows have they put into this game, the attention to detail is pretty awesome and the shows themselves (mostly parodies) are pretty damn funny :P I might start actually properly playing the game in a minute..."

Got my copy today and for £39.99 too, well I didn't even pay that as I traded in some games too but yeah GTAIV get. ^^ *Goes off to explore Liberty City*

I'm getting the 360 version... the PS3 is probably only slightly better graphically anyway has less DLC, online? who knows which will be better, probably not much in it but the 360 has a better service and well I want achievments for playing through the game so yeah...

I've got the A rank achievement for the first stage, for anyone wondering, you need about 50 chain before the boss and a time remaining of 65 - 70 seconds remaining on the clock after the boss fight... afaik I attempted the second level A rank achievement, made some progress but meh it takes a lot of practice.

Smoking /thread

I could potentially have this game as early as Friday... but I'll most likely get it on Saturday according to what the place I'm getting it from is saying.

No Epic games on Wii? tbh I'm not really bothered... their comments are idiotic though and the only good / overrated thing they've done is Gears of War sure it's fun, but it's not the be all and end all of gaming.

Devil May Cry 3 Metal Gear Solid 3 Xenosaga trilogy Ecco? (I liked it )

Some nice moments in there, sure there are loads more but they did well to narrow it down to the ones they liked the best, I miss the good old Sonic days I really hope Sonic Unleashed may be some sort of redemption for the series, we shall see...

Nice, I'll wait it out and get the 360 version then, as I think this is being released to close to GTA VI anyway.

Completed Portal last night, a short but original and enjoyable experience.

Hmm I don't know... at first I found it slightly awkward but once I found the cut off point it got better and now I kinda prefer it to the pad :/ plus the wheel just seems more natural for tricks and wheelies.

It looks like a culmination of Timesplitters, Half-Life and Halo... in a good way but yeah looking good.
