wow tbh this sounds really cool if you arent the loser in a van doing 30


no offense

I'm sure it is, and the only quick way to stop being the loser is to drop $50-80 for that one vehicle.

It's good to have a sense of scale.



oh poo poo thanks for the tip about getting it installed before the sale ends. I bought it for 360 back in the day and never bothered to finish it. I don't give a poo poo about multiplayer but I ate Mafia 3 up when it was free and was looking for another open world game.

I played the entirety of Mafia 2 and I only remember three things about it:

1. It took place in the 50s

2.It only had like 2 radio stations, like come on, try, Jazz wasn't the only thing people were listening to and even then there's more Jazz than just big band

3. It made you actually follow traffic laws, the holy grail of hyper-realism Rockstar drools over.

Wasn't this in La Norie too, like one of the entire points was "you're playing as a regular detective who is a regular person, follow the loving laws"?

Even though this game was sorta half baked, I wish they would make a sequel. My wife freaking loved it because it's gta without all the shooting (shes bad at games with shooting).

LA Noire is kind of weird because the game is a 50s-style noir detective thriller with super serious interrogations and gritty police work, but then you can walk down the streets and start murdering pedestrians and blowing up cars like it's GTA. I don't really understand why Rockstar designed the game that way.

Yeah I got a feeling of "freshness" from LA Noire even though it was kinda a weird mix of like, old school adventure point and click game and modern era GTA. It's ok it wasn't perfect because it was new and cool enough to be fun anyway.

I know :filez: are kinda taboo here, but that's one way to play V for free without having to install any goddamn launcher from Epic, Rockstar Social Club, whatever else they force you to run. Same with Uplay and all the others.

That promo is available year-round.

i think they wanted to do something new and methodical and then the execs were like "ok but you need to put the [core gta audience expectations] in there because its a rockstar game" so they just tacked that poo poo on to the open world part of the game even though it made no sense

personally while i appreciated what the game tried to do, i dont think it worked at all, the detective work was way too on rails to be fun imo. the closest thing to a "detective simulator" that ive found actually fun is Obra Dinn

man I just bought civ6 a few weeks ago because of the pandemic and stuff too oh god I'm so irate that I'm literally farting.

Also i hear you can just pirate PC games and play them at fairly reduced prices? I hadn't been aware of that, that sounds really neat but also extremely dangerous and sexy like smoking a cigarette behind a dumpster or getting into an adults car for candy can anyone CONFIRM/DENY what that's all about???

Vanilla Civ VI is garbage, but with the latest expansions it's pretty good. Even better with mods.

like in a good way or in a way that says she's surprised to see me and I shouldn't be there and should leave because whatever is cool I wouldn't want to be rude, on the other hand I WOULD like to see a goth titty lady and her butt and what she's doing with it probably so that seems like something I would stick around for depending on the answer and how it was said

Vice City and San Andreas are the peak of the franchise. It's way downhill from there.

I booted this up the other day and I still had my GOON STREET gang tag from when I got this game for Xbox360 in 2013 :3: Pretty surprising because I probably played like 4 times for a total of 5 hours way back when before my character got deleted by their servers

Rockstar Social name is timpanihilistic if anyone wants to friend me. I’ve been trying to link up with an IRL friend to play with them eventually but hell, the more the merrier!

does anybody remember those ycs gta4 days of the whacky videos? there was one called "burgers" where a fat burger salesman says "burgers!" then niko shoots him in the head while screaming "shut up and gently caress off!!"

it was the height of comedy back in 2009.

No, BUT, I'm very interested in these too. I remember a video set to Casino Zone music from Sonic 3 where the player keeps lurching the car forward as their CPU follower tries to get in like 5-6 times in a row. And for some reason in 2008 or whenever this was my brain decided that was the funniest combination of noises and colors that had ever been conceived
