Another great one as always. He's definitely right about maintaining the friendships or whatever it is. If i was any good at keeping up excessive social relationships, id have no time for video games anyways. Love the end credits for "The Serbian National Anthem" by "I don't bloody know"

He actually is British, he moved out to Australia. Wasn't his best one but it made good points..especially those bloody trees.

Look we're not overly negative, we're just sensible and believe that being overly positive about things can lead to George W. Bush being in power.
However the resent appointment of Boris Johnson as London Major makes me wonder if we haven't all gone a little crazy bonkers over here.

You can tell when a reviewer is about the games or about themselves. That zero punc guy is an attention *4ore. "Wonky driving". People who haven't played GTA4 listen up, whenever someone says GTA4's driving isn't good hasn't played the game very long at all. Like probably only a couple hours. At first I may have shared that same opinion. Now after trusting R*(because they've done this a few times before) and absorbing a boatload of GTA4'ness in my brain(24+ total hrs) it's perfect. Sick, if you will. Once you get the hang of it it's fun as heck driving around LC. E-brake and all. It's REAL fun. Realistic fun. This of course is IMHO.

Finally, someone who calls it likes he sees it w/out all of the fawning best.game.ever. BS. Face it - there is such a thing as too much realism. It's boring & tedious. I can already drive a crappy car and get some jackass swearing & honking at me. And the traffic is just as bad as NYC at 5pm on a Friday. Do I really need it in a game? The camera is wonky. The combat system is weak. Do I really need a bowling mini-game? Or darts? Seriously? I want carnage, dammit! I want big explosions, big guns, and big vehicles. Very overrated.
I love Yatzee - the man, not the game.

Agreed, the game is wayyyyyyyy overrated, I don't know if they paid off all those websites to give a perfect 10 score, but this game is definitely FAR from perfect and FAR from the most fun game out there. It is a fun game, but nowhere near the perfect 10 rating it has been receiving and just gets too tedious. Not as big of a leap forward from the last GTA's as I was lead to believe.

they gave it a 10 because of a single player that improves on the other GTAs and a multiplayer that is actually very fun and engaging. so much work went into this game. it deserves a 10.

yea..sadistic knows the deal. i read it on the videos page. under each video you watch it has the same description of him saying that he was british born and moved to australia or writes for an australian company or some crap. i liked the mass effect review more than this after watching all his reviews. mass effect was good and army of two was pretty good too.

Ah, good stuff. The friends crap is kinda annoying. After every mission I keep losing points with somebody. I was able to buy guns from Jacob, but then I quit hanging out with him to get something else and now I can't buy guns from him anymore. What kinda crap is that? They should leave the likeness the same. Let it go up as you hang, and don't let it go down. It kinda feels like Saints Row, always having to do crappy stupid side things just to progress a little bit in the story. Lame. The trees suck too. Some should snap off. That could be patched, right? Can the friend thing be patched too? Is that possible? Time will tell...

I loved the game. Played through once the first 2 weeks I had it and aside from working full-time, still managed to put in over 60 hours. Then I played through the whole thing in less than 15 hours to get the minute achievement, and seriously, this game doesn't get old, there's still tons I could do! Not to mention multiplayer :)

This guy obviously has never even been to New York City. All the street lamps fall over if you lean on them and the trees are on steroids. I'm embarresed to say, I actually live on Brighton Beach, the real Hove Beach (not kidding). Nathans (Johnsons) is a few blocks away. I can see the Cyclone (Screamer) from my window. You really only have to drive a few blocks before the cops give up around here. Even though I've come to hate this game, it's still much better than actually going outside.
Also, isn't there a write mama a letter mission? I'm quite sure I've been emailing someone back and forth.
Grand Theft Normal Boring Life! That was brilliant!
