I'm way less excited about GT4 now that they've dropped online play.

Man...I could care less about the online playability. As long as they update the cars and tracks, I'll be overwhelmingly happy. playing online amounts to interacting with other people...and people in general suck, especially online.

GT4 will have online play....just not for 4 more months after the first release of the game that doesnt have it. look it up. plus sence they drop online mode the game will have 100-150 more cars! even with classic mode. were cars from the 60-80s will be in there own mode. this game is and will dominate all.

GTA SA on the other hand. im getting it on the 25 at midnight. game stops doing a special midnight release to those will it reserved.

GTA: San Andreas

Anyone else buy it yet?

I cant believe how much more stuff they have added into this game. Its completely amazing! Definately the best GTA to date. They added a ton of new little features in it, to make game play a lot more fun. You should really check this game out if you like the other GTA releases.

I've played GTA a little bit yesterday at the gaming store i go to...it's basicly the same thing with a few features added. If you liked the other games you'll love this one. It has a lot of substance. Also, the freakin map is HUGE, it's pretty damn sweet.
I've also been playing Halo 2 for a while now too, it's pretty badass. My advice would be to mod your box and just put on there...it's be so much easier.
GT4 isn't out yet here, but i've been playing Prologue, which is basicly the same thing with less cars/tracks, and so far it's pretty sweet too. This is the first GT game i've played and it's kinda hard to get used to everything, but other than that, the graphics are badass and the cars are badass

cant use xbox live with the ripped version of halo2.. tracking IPs of everyone who tries, not sure of the penalty but it was kinda harsh.

I dont have xbox live at home anyway...so i don't really worry about it. But the game is fucking badass. It's definetly worth the buy if you're thinking about it. And just so you know...when or if you buy it you probably won't like it at first. None of us at the store really did, but we all love it now. Every aspect of the game is so awesome, and also, everything is perfectly balanced. Jumping really high is badass too, and now you can't get hurt no matter how high of a level you jump off of. H2 is simply amazing.

I agree.. The crazy part is the size! The maps are so stinking huge, and the game still runs better now then it did in VC and III. I've played the game for the last two days, and I still haven't seen every street and alley in the first map.

I love the fact that you can build your stats.

I traded in Madden, kept ESPN 2k5, Madden just doesn't feel right this year...and yeah, I started a thread on Madden a few months ago, it just didn't get too many posts.

That's because everytime a new one comes out, they just tweak the stats and playability and everyone thinks it's a new game when in reality it's so similar to past games it's almost ridiculous.

Park your car next to the fence, then jump on the car, then jump over the fence.

San Andreas may never see an xbox release. Supposedly the contract that sony and rockstar signed was modified so that III and vice city would come out on xbox with the exception that a gta down the line would stay ps2 exclusive, possibly san andreas, but this is just what I've been hearing at work. (I work at a video game store for those who don't know heh.)
