At the very end of the game, after all the poo poo went down, I went to the karaoke bar and sang by myself while wearing the police outfit you wear at the end. Somehow seemed like the most appropriate end for Wei. Edit: It was during the daytime, so there were no customers in the club, and the bartender and hostesses were cleaning up from the night before. Even more appropriate. The Macaroni has a new favorite as of 23:21 on Oct 30, 2012 |

I'm finally getting around to GTA4 now that I have a controller for my PC. I decided to get Niko hammered, but because I was with an NPC I didn't want to drive home and risk having to do the drat mission again. So I'm stumbling around, and instead of yelling out "Taxi!" or "Over here!" like normal, he just belts out "YELLOW CAR!!!" in this incredible, miserably  voice. It was great and I laughed a lot.

Yeah, I intended to do the mission properly but when I saw that it unlocked "Take on Me" there wasn't any drat way I wasn't going to do that song and ace it. You're trying to suck because a guy at the club is trying to convince his girlfriend that real men can't sing because he's terrible at karaoke and doesn't want to embarrass himself. If you do it well, she says "What are you talking about, <guy's name>, he was awesome!  " and the guy will be like "drat it, man! I'll never get laid now!" and then "FAVOR FAILED: YOU DIDN'T SUCK ENOUGH."In other news, Assassin's Creed III has dogs you can pet and feed in between hacking up redcoats with a tomahawk. I haven't even played the game yet (it's my roommate's game) but I'm going to go ahead and give it a ten out of ten on that basis alone.

In Dishonored (hell of a game) I came upon some unsuspecting guard and pointed my crossbow right into his skull. He turned around to face me and I saw he wasn't a guard at all, but some innocent passerby. He looked at me wide-eyed and terrified for a long time, until I lowered my crossbow. He closed his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.

Actually Subject 16's been named before ACIII. He's the central character in The Lost Archive DLC in Revelations. Also, I really wish I had the money for ACIII.  (Paying off a WiiU preorder).

Coffee And Pie posted:The best is, sometimes he will just scream at the taxi, no words, just "AAAAAAARRRGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!" Drunk Niko is my favorite Niko. My favorite moment in the whole of GTA IV was the time I took the Irish girl on a date to some place, and we both got blitzed. A few hours later Niko and girl are helplessly wandering the street outside. For those of you who haven't played, being drunk essentially renders the character extremely hard to control. He will fall over, swerve, walk into things. Anyway, the girl's a real mean drunk, berating and belittling Niko, stopping onto to burst into tears occasionally. Niko says something like "Shuuuurt uuuuuurp woooor-maaaaan" as I try and hail a cab, stumble into the road and gets Meet-Joe-Blacked by two taxis.

I didn't even realize it until now, but IV's drunk mode is way more fun than RDR's because you get all of the motion blur (really cool at night with all of the lights) and camera bobbing action. Plus drunken companions staggering around into traffic and being all belligerent. Jonesing so hard for GTA V now.

It is a complicated drunk driving simulator. Some might say over complicated. All you really need is a slightly toned down intoxication effect and it would be perfect. Edit: since drunk cop chases are arguably the most challenging and fun, I don't really mind it although it is kind of stupid how they just 'know'. But then again, that also made killing pigeons really dumb and annoying. For a flawed game, it at least tried a lot of things. Slum Loser has a new favorite as of 21:05 on Oct 31, 2012 |

I acutally like how, if you get in a car drunk, Niko will say something akin to "I really shouldn't be driving when I'm like this". The only problem I have with the drunkenness is that, even if you're driving purposefully slow and manage to keep your car straight, cops immediately know you're driving drunk.

How slow are we talking here? Because being overly careful is one of those tell-tale signs that some folks know to look for. That said, most people's definition of 'slow' in a GTA is the speed limit.

I was dating the first girlfriend chick you get in the game, and got completely hammered and went to drive her home. Turns out a drunken car chase on a vespa is not a great idea, so I crashed, she went flying into a wall and left a bloody smear. 3 hours later I called her wondering if I'd get her answering machine or something, since she's dead as a hammer, and promptly started laughing my rear end off when she got pissy with me for a "horrible date".

The only problem I have with the drunkenness is that, even if you're driving purposefully slow and manage to keep your car straight, cops immediately know you're driving drunk. If I'm remembering correctly they made him say that because people were complaining that the game was allowing you to drive drunk. In a game where you can have sex with hookers then beat them to death with a baseball bat.... I could be wrong though.

You don't want to get on MADD's poo poo list. (Seriously, that particular group was the source of most of the complaining, and they have enough clout that Rockstar added Niko's lines and the "shouldn't you hail a cab?" popup)

You go to a hospital, you get out of jail, you just steal another car, you go on about your business. In a game where you're mowing down citizens by the hundreds just by dodging around cars onto the sidewalk to get somewhere a little faster, we're supposed to care more about the ones who got mowed down because you were drunk.
