Rockstar have never made a bad game.

Yo You need to stop saying deliberately silly things before I drop in from a military helicopter and slap your face with my giant handsome wallet, dog.

Someone woke up on the right side of grouchy.
GTA is harmless, mindless fun. If you use cheats. Otherwise they can be pretty boring, but I think you're being a little harsh on GTA and their fans., Mac. They're not all idiots - just most of them. |

Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean we're idiots. Opinions maaan.
|
I partly agree with some of the stuff Mac said, but he can't deny that the games are fun. Some of my fondest gaming memories from the last few years are of dicking around in SA/IV with my friends.
|
I agree with Phylum. These games aren't really good, but they're fun. Usually not the kind of fun the devs intended though
|
GTA is a fun series to rent.
But I wouldn't spend enough money on it to buy it. |
Yeah I wouldn't go out and buy a GTA game new. But I don't have to because I got every GTA game in a package on Steam for £6 during the sales :tard:
|
I have a question to any Metal Gear fans. I haven't actually played any of the games properly (and recently) and would like to try the series, does anyone have any ideas which game would be best to start with? Ideally I'd like to start with the first one but it seems to be a little more expensive than the sequels and I'd hate to buy it then find out I don't like it.

I have a status report on Mass Effect – the Mako is fukken illin’, and now the plot has moved me out into actual missions the game is a bit more enjoyable. However, I’m not happy that the game ganked me immediately after a cutscene and then decided to stick the last autosave aaaallllll the way back at the start of the planet. |
Mass Effect is great, even though the Mako has the most hilariously awful controls, the parts are still fun. I was far less enthusiastic about ME2 though, still played it to the end.
ME3 is just awful, stopped playing about 75% of the way through. |

Thanks for the advice guys. Guess I'll have to risk paying a little bit extra for the first one. It's a shame the games aren't available on Steam, it'd make things 10x easier.
|
Buy a PSX version and emulate it on PC. It'd be better (and cheaper), believe me.

MGS1 for PC has troubles running fine on newer systems, and it's stripped of some features. And you get things like "Press Select Button" on keyboard
|
You can also get MGS2:Substance for PC.

Oh yes. I don't think he's going to finish them soon. These are just levels with no story
|
Buying a PS2 and the Metal Gear games really isn't too expensive.

Can you seriously say you don't think the games are fun even to just screw around in? C'mon, man. Flying cars. Gimp suits. Punches that send people across the world. Superjumps. Just so fun. But yeah, the story are prettty much hackneyed attempts at mob and gang movies with some petty and uninteresting characters, but that's part of its charm. Plus, the guys at Rockstar have a good sense of humour, and that usually comes through pretty well in the games. The commercials are annoying as fuck, though. |

If screwing around in open world games is what you want, Saints Row and Just Cause both do it much better than GTA ever has, the only edge GTA has is the superior multiplayer. Also I enjoy the fuck out of Rockstar's stories, and I don't think there is any argument you can make that would convince me they're not on the upper scale of videogame stories, which isn't saying much I admit, but I still think they would be a little bit above mediocre movie status. |
To be honest, I've never completed a GTA storyline. Got pretty far in GTA IV storyline, probably the only one that really grabbed me. But I found III and SA's kinda generic, from what I saw.
|
Don't worry, I wouldn't expect Mitt Romney to finish a GTA game.
|
I don't get how I'm Mitt Romney. Really. Explain.
