Seems like COD4 is pretty popular amongst this group.  I'll try adding you guys later next week when I'll actually have time to play.

how's the GTA 4?  I had all 3 versions before and wondering would it be just better graphic on 4?  I remember NY story background was on first generation GTA.

Meh...

I'm addicted of course. The story is good, visually it's nice, there are a few refinements that are cool, and the game feels "deeper" with more to do and fool with...

...but there are quite a few moments when I think the animation movements are crude and so "last gen", and I have the sneaking suspicion there is someone watching which radio station I listen to and which songs I like, and that a couple comedian's managers managed to get them a gig on this big video game. It's a little "product-placement-ish", and makes me think they think I'm stupid. GTAs used to be quite smart IMO.

I'd say the game is 60% Hype/40% Cool.

when your in game you bring up your cell phone and select multiplayer. It will search for a game similar to how halo does it "matchmaking" but you seem to be able to get a lot more people in game. you can play co op, free for all, teams, racing, and even play pool or darts and stupid stuff like that. 1 player per console. check out the GTA 4 site it's got alot of information on it. better yet just buy it. I reserved the special edition like 4 months ago... :e:v

Post by: Stucky on May 07, 2008, 04:50:20 PM

I've had mixed results with GTA's multiplayer.  I've really only played it a couple of times though, and both times were in the "free mode".  It was cool to fly around the helicopters and stuff, but it sort of just diluted to a spawn and die scenario.  However, I had no issues inviting my buddy to play with me.

Easy decision for her actually

1.  she's asleep already
2.  she knows I get rowdy and howl at the moon when drunk
3.  she knows after the 1st Pint of  "Jack with a splash of Coke" that the next 6 or 7 pints flow like water.

much safer and cheaper if I stay home and chat up my pals online.

I'll be on COD4 or R6V2 tonight.

Just the opposite actually.  I order them by the pint with a splash of coke.  Normal mix is 1oz whisky to 12 oz Coke.  My tenders make them 3-4 oz whisky, ice and then to it off with the Coke in a pint glass.

My bar of choice for 14 years still calls me "Jack" (not my real name mind you) on sight and pours one immediately.  Ah those were the days.....


As I said I'm on most nights just shoot me a message and I'll get you in.

Cheers

No boss- I meant that my Coke is all gone.  My 1 gallon bottle of J.D. is wanting as well but I can snort fumes when the well runs dry.

Do you guys use the headset thingies?  I haven't bothered but can get one really cheap, really fast if they are useful.

Yeah get the headset.  what good is going to a virtual bar and not being able to talk?

in fact if you have an old xbox headset or even a headset you use with a landline phone it will work just fine.

I have access to the company store.   ;D
I could probably squeeze and old squeeze and get one for free but... they're not that expensive.  I'll scrounge something up.  I thought I had one for my old xboxes laying around somewhere.

EDIT:  got a new one but they take 8 hours for a full charge.  so found my old one that plugs into the controller only the interface is different.  looks like the plug can fit into the bottom side of the controller but there look to be pins on the sides for a different interface.  hope it works or I may have limited vox capabilities.  will be on in about 30-45 mins

After our discussion earlier in the topic about why I game what do I do?

I went to dinner at the neighbors, got Stealth Drunk (happens when you talk and drink over a long period of time, you don't know you're drunk until you stand up, LOL) and passed out cold in my chair when I got home.

Oh the irony.  Sorry to have missed you last night.  I'll be on tonight.
