    Ahh, I gotta say Flow is terrible. Hahaha. Oh well...I didn't pay for it, thank god! Pixel Junk Monsters is incredibly fun! If you get the chance, you should def. download that one.
    Is there a trial game for it?
    I'm still pissed at Warhawk's bundle coming out for 11.99 the week after I paid 8.99 for omega dawn alone...

    SO I have another question. There was a part of San Andreas I really liked where gangs conrolled different zones of the city and you could fight them and take it over. Is there something like this in GTa4?

    Also, that gang area part in SA I thought was awesome, but it really didnt have any resolve that i remember if you took over everything. Then again, I cant really remember, but I think i took over everything except one tiny section, then left to go to SF area, then when I came back, all my gang areas were disappeared! Damn that sucked!
    Pick up my debut novel here on amazon: Jonny Bails Floatin (in paperback) (also available on Kindle for $2.99)

    Like he said, it's not like that...which really makes more sense.

    SA took place in the early to mid 90s in California. At that time gang presence was a real issue in different neighborhoods.

    Not saying that doesn't happen in NYC, but it's not quite the same.

    Someone found a plane ticket for Nico Bellic from LC to SA on the Socialclub.com thingimagingie.
    DLC anyone?

    I saw that earlier.

    It's true (not SA anyways that anyone knows of), both systems will have DLC in the future...I wonder what exactly it will be though.
    Can you imagine how freakin' huge SA would be?!?! That would be one long-ass download. LOL

    Wouldn't SA be the next title? Since Niko is more of a character than any of the previous protagonists it wouldn't surprise me if they tried to keep him in the rest of the GTA 4 games. Definitely wouldn't be DLC.

    I know both systems are getting DLC, I suspect they'll be different though.
    It's going to be pretty pricey I imagine.
    They were calculating how much DLC totalled for Ace Combat 6 (360) and for the game and all the DLC they were up to $180 dollars....

    The 360 DLC is rumored to be extremely large, like island/city sized. I don't know anything about the PS3 stuff because I went with the 360 version.

    Whoah, I'm sure that it'll be worth it. Rockstar seem to have a lot of common sense about making everything worthwhile.


    My flatmate got GTA 4 yesterday. He used REALLY lame excuses not to go out yesterday night and tonight, and didn't even tell us he had it til we barged into his room just before we left! Living with a GTA recluse is like living with a drug addict :(

    haha well we have 2 Xboxes. One flatmate keeps his in his room (the one who has GTA) and the other keeps his in the living room. So whenever the one with GTA isn't playing it and no one is watching tv in the livingroom I'll play it :p

    Got 8 exams in the next 4 weeks though, so think I might wait until they're over before I even dare play it.

    Hahaha, that tends to happen.

    Haha indeed.
    I like it, but the only qualm I have is it doesn't seem fun to get the wanted level up anymore. The cars handle like pigs at high speed and its too hard to shake the police off your tail once theyre right behind you. The missions are a hell of a lot cooler, but I no longer feel the need to muck about between missions.
