Ah, man, this is pretty much the end of the road for my dream of Paradigm making another racer as cool as Beetle Adventure Racing (it was pretty sweet for it's time).

Off Subject, except it's a SONY question...
I just caught a commercial for GTAIV and at the end it's tagged with "available now for xbox 360, sony playstation 3 computer entertainment system, and coming soon to pc".
Has Sony always used that title for the ps3 in ads?

thx fanboy. for any of you that missed Zork, you should google "Zork" "Infocom" "Download" and it will take you to the infocom homepage with FREE downloads of Zork I, II, and III. classic gaming.

YES! Some of my fondest pc gaming experiences all started with the Zorks / Planetfall / Deadline. If anyone knows where you can download the old infocom catalog (other than Zork b/c I already found that one) please give me a shout.
The packaging of those old games was awesome.

I don't want it b/c it hurts.

I would build a replica of Wall Street, and then I would let Sackboy stomp the hell out of it.

Imagine if they port this to the Wii, and it included headtracking. Am I too far out there, or does seem like the next logical step?

BUT - if he were lumping these things together, then we would have situations such as...sitting on the couch high as a kite playing GTAIV and making occasional calls to the bookie to get some action on the NBA finals. Good thing that never happens! :)

gta4...

facts
#1 i'm playing it on 360 (for the future dlc).
#2 i've purchased & played gta, gta2, gta3, gta3:vc, gta3:sa, gta:liberty city stories
#3 i've never completed a gta game - man, sometimes the missions get stupid hard, and i enjoy cruisin' and killin'
#4 i'm about 5 hours in on the new one

and...i'm not all that impressed. especially for the accolades it's gotten. am i missing something, or is this a prettier version of the exact same game with more cutscenes (man, i hate longass cutscenes...the reason why i will never buy another metal gear game)

i can think of at least 2 or 3 more enjoyable/playable games in the past few months. honestly (and i'm a big fan of pretty much everything rockstar does) - - burnout3 + crackdown = two much more fun game experiences.

please tell me i'm missing something other than a big ol' plateful of HYPE!

in all honesty, i've had at least 5 moments that made me smile b/c of cool little things. i've had exactly zero "wow" moments.
