[QUOTE="t-mac1111"]Ill be playing either uncharted for a 4th time or working my way through MGS 1,2,3 in preperation for MGS 4!!!!! :DAtheos-Arkhaios
I still haven't played MGS3 lol, I might want to do that before starting 4. I also have FF12 to beat. College does terrible things to my gamer tendencies.
Once my dual shock from Japan arrived I played through Uncharted a 2nd time.... oh so good. I might take that advice and set aside May for a Metal Gear Month.. 3,1,2. Anyway, this thread was fun, but I finished rollin up a fatty so Adios Amigos... until next time.[QUOTE="_sephex_"][QUOTE="Atheos-Arkhaios"][QUOTE="siwelcram"][QUOTE="Atheos-Arkhaios"][QUOTE="dreaded_sledge"][QUOTE="Atheos-Arkhaios"]I hate the GTA games so I'll hopefully still be neck deep in Oblivion if I get it for my b-day...if I don't I'll just go buy it so either way I will be starting it soon haha.
Why do I hate GTA? Pretty easy answer actually. I get enjoyment out of games that have good story lines and require me to think. GTA has neither of those in my opinion. It's random killing of innocent people and police officers, which bothers me since my father is a policer officer. I'd much rather play FF7 or chess. Also, I play COD4, but that is much different as I only play online games like capture the flag where you have to use strategy.

Do you even know what VI's story is even about? Have you played it and given it a chance?
Either way it's your own opinion but when has GTA forced you to kill cops or the innocent? I may be wrong but I believe never.
I don't know IV's story line because I gave I-III a chance against my better judgement. I've realized it's the same formula each time. And are you "forced" to kill innocents/police? No idea but it's common knowledge that those and other activities such as abusing women are what the games have become known for. I don't find those things fun, just disgusting.
That's your opinion and I'm okay with it. However I wonder how many people would be offended by your upside down cross symbol you sport in these forums. I have played every GTA and was never forced to kill an innocent only other criminals. You on the other hand sport a symbol resembling Satanism, yet you are worried about the innocents? I just do not get it.Interesting. I do not see how my inverted cross relates to my dislike of GTA...but I'll go with it. The inverted cross has nothing to do with Satanism, as it represents my rejection of the Christian religion (exclusionary simply because I used to be a Christian, not another faith). That would entail I don't believe in Satan, yes? And I never said people shouldn't play GTA because I'm "offended" by it, I just think they are terrible games. So, if people are offended by my avatar...well, that's their problem that they aren't comfortable enough with other people's views.
I feel quite similar. I am not offended by GTA. I'm a 24 yr old guy, I listen to Metal, I watch Action and Horror Movies. GTA doesn't offend me, I just find the games overly repetitive, the story subdued. I guess If I could play as one of the prostitutes and go on a gang-member serial killer rampage I might find that it balances itself out, and give it a whirl. So far the series has not impressed me.Agreed. It will remain a mystery to me as to why they became so popular.
Just a piece of the downfall of the Roman ... er... American Empire. The End is Extremely F@cK!ng Nighi'll playing "studying for finals" and cod4. plus maybe crisis core and ff tactics. i still have to pass ff12, haven't played uncharted yet... there's a lot to do, and not much time to do it. so gta4 is completely forgettable IMO. RakuhoUncharted is very well worth your time. Fantastic Game IMO.

Between completing Crisis Core and with the new Warhawk expansion tomorrow, I'm sure I'll be busy. Echochrome would also be pretty cool if it gets released soon.JTH_22
Pain's getting an expansion? Sweet. Can't wait.
Yeah, I was on the PAIN Website and the developer's blog says that the amusement park level is coming soon, new placements for the slingshot and they are working on in-game music and online multiplayer. I've put nearly as many hours into multiplayer pain as I have single player Oblivion. For those that haven't tried PAIN, you are truly missing out.I must be losing my mind. I respect the fact the some peolpe do not like GTA, and that's fine. However comparing GTA to that piece of crap demo PAIN ( it cannot be a game with only one freaking level and two characters)is just ridiculous.. Worst $7.99 I spent in my life. Oh and by the way if you only like "thinking " games get Pixel Junk Monsters. I only wish I missed out on the painful expereince of Pain.
You may be losing your mind. Where did anyone "compare" PAIN to GTA?
Thank You, first off as I didn't COMPARE GTA to pain... I just said that I have a blast playing it. I don't enjoy the single player of Pain all that much, but when there are 4 of us playing some multiplayer, my $10 has brought us a massive amount of laughs. Personally I like the cheerleader, great legs.[QUOTE="JTH_22"]MotorStorm, UT III, maybe Warhawk, and then probably Haze less than a month later. There is life outside of GTA IV :P . I'll stay busy.MKLOLLIFE OUTSIDE OF GTA?!?!?!? You're crazy!!!!!!! :|
I also feel GTA is highly overrated. The Metal Gear, Resident Evil and Final Fantasies are more my style. Phenomenal Stories. I find GTA just meh.
