Well Micro$oft STOLE the show. This time they weren't a common thief, they used big bribes of ca$h. Such capitilist pig$***. But what I don't get about the FFXIII 360 is that its NOT going to be sold in Japan. The market they need it most in. I'm good cuz it'll push the PS3 up the charts in Japan, but it won't for the 360. You think they would with the low sales of the 360. Dumb. Also dumb, 360 avatars. Yes. No not dumb for Wii, not even dumb for PS3. PS3 is doing something TOTALLY different. A second life even. But Microsoft is ripping off what the Wii is successful for. And they're implying that they're faster and better with putting out content for their system than PS3 by putting it out this October. Sure, Home has been in development for like a year (or two?) but Tretton's right. It would be like opening a mall with only two shops in the place. Microsoft started early and didn't tell anybody. Its not like 2 days before E3 they whipped up some **** and ran with it. Home was announced during development. But it was given a street date that was unlikely. But now its just getting annoying. I'd rather have a couple bugs in my Home, than no Home at all. Orkin man's available right? Terminex? None of them no code though. Oh well. Wii, I missed the whole conference, but there does seem to be a couple motion board games that seem pretty fun. Like that skate game, and yes, even Shaun White's snowboard thing.

Lot of great games coming this year, and a little more next year. Too bad all the great games have to come out during my Senior year of High School. Just need to manage time. This is why I have no job. I want to game, I want money, but I also need to pay attention to school and that comes first; especially this year. I'd like come home, do some work, then play my games rather than come home, go to a job, come home, do homework, and have no fun cuz job's still there on the weekend. I'll have my fun instead. I dunno what the big emphasis is on jobs during High school. After high school maybe, no, yes. I'm turning 17, and I can buy M rated games by myself now. Sweet, sweet victory

GTA has come out before Metal Gear twice. Once back in '01 when 3 came out and MGS2 came out. It ruined MGS's change at GOTY and dumbed down the sales quite a bit. The same will happen this year. GTA4 will dumb down sales of MGS4 and go and recieve the GOTY award at every game site, channel, mag, etc... I'm not knocking GTA for its success. You either have it or you don't. I love the GTA franchise. Poor Kojima-san, this is Snake's last Metal Gear and he won't take home an award. But the year's still fresh...kinda

I picked up my copy of GTAIV today. And it is sweet! I love the gameplay and all the new additions to it. I'm glad for some of the changes from GTA San Andreas aren't in this one. But the clothes are subtle yet at the same time, BIG.

One thing I do miss, is Lazlow I call the Zit! line just to hear that sweet sweet voice lol dude's awesome I wish he had a Chatterbox station.

this time I'm not saying hey. directly that is.

Grand Theft Auto 4. Will take control and just suck the life out of me. It will be monumental. I think there might be a slight revolution in the gaming industry that GTA3 caused back when it came out. But I hope that if it does, that every review of any game that is trying to capitalize on the sandbox gameplay, will not include the words "this is too much like grand theft auto" Ugh i got tired of that. And for games that aren't even related. Sure you can mention Spiderman 2's gameplay borrows from GTA. Thats fine, thats dandy...because without GTA3, no one would've thought to do that with a spiderman game. But don't say its too much like it, because spidermans the hero. You can't jack cars and kill innocent people. Well technically you can fi yoju choose not to do anything when a guy is hanging off of a cliff.

But i leave you now. i'm tired

"Niko fires up the in-car computer and searches through the police department's criminal database for information on Lyle. This is one of the new, and possibly very powerful, features in GTA IV. If you know someone's name, you can run it through the database and see what pops up. It'll be interesting to see what happens when you search for Niko Bellic over the course of the game..." - IGN

The first time I find myself behind a cop car, if we can do this, I'm going to check to see if Claude Speed, Vercetti, CJ, Cipriani, and/or Vance have criminal records....as in Easter Eggs. lol
