I have been playing GTA IV, a LOT. Whats not to love. This game blows away the excitement found in most movies and pretty much every game out there. When having a shoot out with the cops, you stand there watching the bullets fly off the car, the windshield shatter and the cops duck down searching for cover. When trying to get away the cops will do whatever it takes to bring down you down. I was escaping from the cops after one entanglement and when I got free all the shots, at least 20 were all around the wheel well, and the tyre had been blown out.
The best thing I can say about this game is that it raises the bar, and shows how lazy other game makers have been.
It re-invents and refines so many points that it is an absolute MUST play for everyone, even for a few minutes. I go for the chop in two weeks. I'm not worried, I'll be glad when I am all fixed up. Which thanks to my mutant healing factor will be about three minutes after I'm done.
A really good article. Does my generation (Generation Y, anyone born after '81) have no culture? To re-cap what is in the article, we have no new defining music, we have not added anything to movies or television. Previous generations can be identified easily, and richly with simple words, hippies, baby-boomer's, Generation X. All of these have full stereotypes associated with them. My initial reaction was that our contribution would not directly affect music and television, it would instead be how we have shaped the internet. Although Larry Page misses out on being a Gen Y'er by 4 years, Mark Zuckerberg (Created Facebook) is right in there (He's actually born the same year as me, which makes my list of accomplishments seem small). We are the first generation who have grown up with it, (which is why I will always refer to us as Generation.com), and as such, we want to be responsible for it, much the same way that previous generations wanted to be responsible for their own leisure activities, which is where the generational music and movies come from.
Another interesting article. It is the story of a Disney cast member who played Jack Sparrow through out the Park. Its a job that I would do, even if the conditions are as strict as they say in the article.
