My car picks the perfect time to pack in then, meaning I absolutely cannot afford to partake of this.

Sorry to hear about the Straight Edge Machine, Tracey managed to bash hers a wee bit already today. Silly cars.

Re: GTAIV (PS3, Xbox 360) Chat - Spoilers

Heh. Within hours of GTAIV's launch and Jack Thompson is already crusading against it:

Quote:
Thompson sent a copy of the letter to Ars Technica, and his demands are far-reaching. "Indictments should be returned against Take Two corporately and its Chairman, Strauss Zelnick, along with other Take Two officers. Indictment should also be against Sony and Microsoft which are making this pornographic game available to minors, and openly so, on their PS3 and Xbox systems," Thompson wrote. "Further, indictments should be handed down against Wal-Mart, Best Buy, GameStop, and all other retailers distributing this game to minors at their retail stores, openly, to kids who are only seventeen."

He then compares the game to, of all things, polio. "Grand Theft Auto IV is the gravest assault upon children in this country since polio. We now have vaccines for that virus... The 'vaccine' that must be administered by the United States government to deal with this virtual virus of violence and sexual depravity is criminal prosecutions of those who have conspired to do this. If you doubt me, look at the aforementioned streaming audio/video. It will make you sick."
Full story here

In other GTAIV news:

- MS has been pimping the GTA downloadable content

- US Posties have been stealing GTA IV

- There seems to be some kind of bug with GTA on 60 and 20Gb PS3s

Byers Rd Woolies were just putting the 'sold out' sign up as I walked in at 10am, probably for the best, exams coming up.

I love Game. Didn't have a pre-order, but they let me buy one as I had a loyalty card. Plus they game me the pre-order bonus Xbox Live points and gamerpics anyway. Good times

Re: GTAIV (PS3, Xbox 360) Chat - Spoilers

Another (possibly minor?) problem has cropped up in the PS3 version of GTA IV. It seems that the game is failing to connect to the internet properly. http://www.computerandvideogames.com....php?id=187968

I'm still waiting for my copy to turn up. Last time I preorder from Amazon.

Re: GTAIV (PS3, Xbox 360) Chat - Spoilers

How do you whistle down a taxi? I've got the ps3 version went on a couple of dates with Michelle in it then a killing spree but have yet to figure out how to call a taxi. Needed to do it when i got hammered on one of the dates but ended up stealing a taxi instead.

On the 360 its the left bumper so am guessing it might be L1 on the ps3.

Does it only work when you are near a taxi and it's not just a regular thing you can do normally?
