gta vice city
 
i rented gta vice city, it's so cool!


anyone else got it?:fuzgrin:

The Sour Slig 12-07-2002 12:09 PM

My friends have it, played it and it is good. Better than crappy GTA 3 that I thought was so dull and boring. But GTA Vice City really isn't much more different to GTA 3. "How could it be better then?" I hear you ask. Simply because of the motor bikes. If this game didn't have them, it would suck completely IMO. It couldn't live on the helicopters or planes because they are so crud with awful handling and height limitation and just aren't fun.

I hated GTA 3 because all I thought was fun was going on killing sprees and toying with the public but it only lasted 5 minutes. The Tank was fun though.... for a while. Driving the cars was so boring, and this is carried on to Vice City. The only vehicle I ever choose is a bike and I never get bored of them. Now I can kill people, get on a bike, do some crazy stunt, go crazy all together, kill more people, ride, repeat. I also mix some other stuff in there so I don't get bored. Now the game has a story, it's more interesting too and there are some humorous lines too. But it's still pretty simple.

Vice City is yet another hyped up GTA game that doesn't live up to it. I heard about all the stuff you could do, played it and I was let down. Buying stuff is pretty basic and once you have it.... well who cares. You "run" Taxi firms and ice cream places but then again, you don't really do anything for it. You buy a business, maybe store some cars there and thats it. You can then come back to pick up some cash laying outside the front door on the street.... just like real life! It's dull and boring.

But the game is good and fun enough to play because of the motorbikes and the missions are somewhat better too, but nothing fab. The graphics are shoddy too, but there are some nice touches liek blood splattering on the camera as well as rain. Doesn't look realistic, but it looks alright. I also like it how Tommy Vicetti's clothes blow in the wind, although I don't like it how the trousers of the "Mr. Vicetti" suit poked through his top suit. GLitches are once again common in this game!

If I were to give this game a ranking, it would be 7/10 or 6.7/10 or something. Fun but flawed. Probably wouldn't last me if I had it.

MasterChief 12-07-2002 03:08 PM

Mac the Janitor 12-10-2002 09:55 PM

I bet that insult really hurt Nads. No, really. I bet he feels so ashamed that he sucks at Halo now...he's a dissapointment to his parents...

MasterChief 12-10-2002 10:00 PM

You mean you don't already?

And don't use 'gay' as an insult, please.

lindsey 12-11-2002 12:39 AM

Just a question "oh great master of Halo", what are your default settings on Multiplayer Deathmatch?

MasterChief 12-12-2002 12:08 AM

lol it dont matter the settings i will own u in every senario and dont think i wont for a second. ok sry i wont use gay as an insult ill use "homosexual"

Disgruntled Intern 12-13-2002 12:21 AM

No, you won't.

If you continue to do as such, I'll have to issue you with a warning. You rarely do anything other than insult people because you think you're better than them at a video game. You're pretty damned pathetic. No one even seems to like you here...and considering this is an oddworld based board, I see no reason for an idiotic halo fanatic such as yourself to be lurking, let alone posting here in the first place.

Go away.

Disgruntled Intern 12-13-2002 09:07 PM

Hey, what's that? It's your first warning!

Yay!

Only two more to go.

MasterChief 12-13-2002 10:04 PM

o my god~!~!~! NOT A WARNING~!~! OH MY GOD IM SOO SCARED PLEASE DONT OH MY GOD~!~!~!~! why don t u just give me 2 more right now, u think its realyy gonna upset me? man i feel so bad right now, not

Disgruntled Intern 12-13-2002 10:13 PM

Keep it up and you'll have your warnings...and you'll be banned.

Won't that be fun?

MasterChief 12-13-2002 10:15 PM

o no please dont~!~! this is my life, i wont have anything else to do~!~! this means everything to me, how can i have fun w/out forums~!?~?! let me see... go to another forums wherer most the kids have hit puberty and they dont get upset when u say gay.. ah that sounds better

1)I thought halo was your life

2)kids who haven't hit puberty won't have DI's avatar

3)and, I can sum up what he's saying: Shut up or you will be banned

4)you... are a f***

5)you probably haven't hit puberty, you spell like s***!

6) your a pretty fart smeller(intentional)

Disgruntled Intern 12-13-2002 11:20 PM

Considering the fact that I'm nearly 18, I'd say it's safe to assume I've hit puberty.

Go ahead and find another forum that doesn't become aggitated with you using 'gay' as a derragatory remark...as long as I don't have to deal with you anymore.

nads 12-13-2002 11:26 PM

if you say "gay" anyway, you'll be thrown out, beaten, politically incorrect, etc.

MasterChief 12-13-2002 11:44 PM

:)

MasterChief 12-13-2002 11:45 PM

o yea, discruntdeled intern, i feel bad that u have no social life because u gotta be pretty gay to be 18 and hanging on a forum when most kids r not even teenagers

MasterChief 12-14-2002 12:19 AM

Sorry Seems like I couldnt delete this post. Wont happen again.

DI I could easily give you warnings for flaming members, and swearing at them, and really making others feel worthless. But I actually have stood up for you because you do contribute, and you also have rights. And So does MasterChief, If you issue a warning to MC, I should issue both you and Nads a warning, for flaming him in the first place, Mainly Nads in other topics, where MC had been cooled down, and just discussing something and Nads shows up and just says the words "shutup". He has every right, to actually say gay, Homosexuals may be offended by this, but he has also said that he uses it in the context of stupid. it may be offenssive to some, heck I even dont like to have people use it here, but as I said before members have the freedom of speech, your language offends people Di, occasionally, his words may offend people. So I will hope to see that warning removed or I will be informing the rest of the staff, on the reason I feel this should be striked from the record. Master Chief you have done better lately, I know you have a right to brag being I know how good you are at halo just guys hopefully you can just ignore eachother and dont respond if you are so offended. Just remember, that I am sticking my neck out to make sure your rights are protected, just make sure if something happens you arent the one that causes it in the first place, or do something so bad, that I cant defend you. This also shows how A quick PM could have made the difference here, saving us a huge debate and arguement. But that is all. You three atleast now know what is expected and what I have seen. I have no warnings to give as of this time. And if any other comments are directed towards his statements, or targeted upon for no reason or to start trouble, you better believe Ill be back again, but with force next time. This is my friendly reminder.


It would be a pitty for a member to be banned for his freedom of speech as anyone else, and equal opurtunity on a democratic forum now wouldnt it. As for being a Halo Fan, not everyone here is a fan of Oddworld, he may just like to come to offtopic.

Sincerely, Al the Vykker FC Mod

Disgruntled Intern 12-14-2002 01:20 AM

Then issue me a warning. When people tell me I've hurt their feelings, I apologize. When people are undeservingly flamed, I apologize and try not to do it again. When this guy repeatedly says things that he knows offends people, it makes me wonder how much he even cares....I'll wear my warning like a metal of honor. As far as I can tell, he's made no improvements on his forum etiquette, and hasn't really even made any noteworthy attempts.

Joshy 12-14-2002 02:45 AM

I agree with Digruntled Intern, masterchief should be given a warning since Disgruntled Intern is only doing his Job and his just trying to make the forum a better place for everyone and Masterchief is the one that started up the arguement.

This is really dumb, sorry AL but what you just said was a massive crock of shit. You can't let some moron deliberately put down others, speaking like a 7 year old rebel wannabe and saying that it's him using his freedom of speech. He's abusing it for god's sake!

Sheesh, some mods just aren't as suitable for the job as others...

Anyway MC, I mean whats your preffered game settings? You saying that you're the best & that you can beat me anytime is nice and all, but wear a belt and lose the mouth! Just how many people have you played? And I mean how many people who own Halo have you played? Just remember this saying in life: "There is always somebody better". And my own saying: "It's always the ones that are all talk who are the worst"

As for my preffered settings, me and my friends always have Health: 100%, Shields: Off, Indicators: Off, Radar: Off, No kill penalties or bonuses, infinite grenades (for the lovable grenade wars when two opponents get in close combat range and if one declares a grenade war, the first to stick a plasma grenade on the other wins (of course)), 50 kills (of course), no time limit, all weapons and vehicles and the rest isn't really important. Thois is for Deathmatch of course.

MasterChief 12-14-2002 12:14 PM

my game settings, 100% health, 100% shield, radar on, NOt infinite grenades and all other defualt settings because i play tourney rules. The tournament uses the rules i use. SO dont go thinking ur really tough cause uplay w/ no radar. Secondly i have played more people in Halo then u will imagine, i play people from all over the places and some guys r frikin great, but i am undefeated:) so go ahead, say something to make fun of me.... im waiting

MasterChief 12-14-2002 12:17 PM

LOL me apalogize? why would i apalogize when i dont start half of the fights here, im talkin about something else and nads comes in and starts a fight, u want me to apalogize? LOL, im not apalogizing for things i didnt start, im just backing my self up from kids who try and make fun of me

Al the Vykker 12-14-2002 12:31 PM

Sheesh, some mods just aren't as suitable for the job as others...
Quite Funny, actaully I have been well suited for the job. The reason I'm not a mod of Off topic was for this reason. In case you didnt notice I was elected by the members along with DI. I know DI has been doing a good job. And so have I. I have been actively involved trying to solve the spam solution, if you look in Forum Feedback you can check, and am really concerned for the wellfare of the forums. If you would have noticed if you ever did visit Fan Corner, I too have given warnings for massive spam in my forum, so do not even begin to attack my mod status, for not doing a good job, because I have thats not the question that was on debate here. Aparently most of the members think I'm doing a good job here. In which case I was elected Thats what I have to say about that. If you were lead to believe otherwise I apologize, but please leave me being a mod out of it, im not a mod of offtopic so end of discussion. If you would have noticed none of my posts ever attacked DI, for not doing a good job as a moderator. so far he has Off topic, has been a lot better, especially with the recent spam, its finnally being taken care of. Thankyou.

Now as far as Im concerned there were many times in the beginning where his behavior was unsuitable, but what I saw and specifically was seeing, was that Nad's not DI, because he was just concerned about people's wellfare about certain word use, so I do apologize for completely going out on you, but Nads did attack MC, out of nowhere in a few topics, Mc was talking just normally in a topic, and being involved in the discussion. And Nad's just says the words Shut up, and nothing else. HE will occasionally stop by, and just keep saying stuff against MC when he hasnt done anything wrong. I find it quite funny, that a member is more recently blamed for defending himself, and that others have the right to dictate what is said. That is all. I have talked with MasterChief, especially on this issue, he joined for the purpose to talk about Halo and some other stuff, mainly in offtopic, until perhaps the new oddworld game comes out. But what I find here that was the sole reason I came. is when other members are not contributing to the topics for better or for worse meaning if they say something you like or something you dont like. And just saying cool sweet awesome really. They arent warned for their actions. My only concern, not with attacking anyone, but just targeting a large audience which does include myself sometimes, is we never really want to get to know a person, especially recently. We just attack, and dont see. But as you have seen and I have stressed this many time Im not trying to attack anyone here, I never attacked anyone's Mod status. So I do feel a bit hurt you would attack mine sour slig, just because I was trying to express a cocern. I will not be issueing warnings here, I dont feel I need too. I just want that stressed, and that you hopefully do think Im doing my job too as a staff member of these forums also.

Disgruntled Intern 12-14-2002 01:21 PM

Well I've noticed MC will just come in to a topic and start yammering away about halo for no reason, or insult members for not being as good as he claims to, etc. I've only noticed Nads telling him to shut up when MC is doing what I stated above. It's not the best way to go about it, but it could be worse.

I still feel that MC needs a warning.

And for the record, Al, you're a crappy mod!

Heh...Kidding, of course. You do a fine job.

MasterChief 12-14-2002 05:47 PM

thas fine wutever, give me a warning but i think nads deserves one to and if u dont give him 1 i think that is just bogus and bad moderating

The Sour Slig 12-15-2002 02:10 PM

Sorry about that AL, I just said it out of shock and anger because its clear tha tMC is a trouble maker.

And MC, who said I was saying that my rules are tougher? I think you're telling yourself that and I think you're scared that I've been playing with alot tougher rules. Who gives a damn if you play by tournament rules anyway? That doesn't mean its the toughest. I think the tourney rules are the default setting anyway. Me and my friends just thought that Shields was too forgiving in Multiplayer. perfect for Cpaign though, but not for Multiplayer. So we decided to take it off. I am considering shield 100% and health 50% though. Snipers shouldn't be too powerful that way.

The problem with you is that you're so arrogant and you don't realise that you spark things off. Listen to yourself and you'll realise that you're just asking for trouble.

And as I said before "There is always somebody better".

Hmmm, still just hanging on topic, I hope Halo 2 will support the keyboard and mouse that will be released for Xbox sometime in the future. I like playing the FPS shooters on Xbox just fine with control pads, but I am better with keyboard and mouse. I still have to play a multiplayer FPS on my PC though, my PC just couldn't handle it though :(

nads 12-15-2002 02:36 PM

sorry




Back to the topic, I have codes if anyone wants some
