which city for GTA 5?

found it: The C90s - Shine a Light (Flight Facilities Remix)

love flight facilities stuff anyway but thought c90s had given up long ago, nuts to see them given such a high profile spot

still under 10%, so impressed by this game... but as mentioned above, this seems a lot more clumsily sexist and offensive than even previous GTAs. did everyone in the rockstar offices get dumped by their girlfriends or something?

so close the 150 mil for the golf course w/michael after making 100mil on PIS

made 100 mil for franklin betw. PIS & HAL

stockmarket seems glitchy to me, arrows on the spreadsheet show the stock rising but when i look at the graph it's falling. Just don't get it.

Think I invested in PIS yesterday though, hope I did anyway. How much are you putting in?

lol @ the biggest most controversial ultra violent game in history having everyone invest in stocks and play golf and train a fucking dog

fuck training a dog, but the golf and tennis are both pretty good, and there is something to enjoy in the jarring change of pace.

i was thinking, this is when you know they have succeeded with a sandbox, when you feel like you could fuck around forever and never get bored.

i can't wait for the insane deep analysis of how the 'markets' in these games work. if it's something besides being randomized.

i haven't been paying super close attn but have not seen anything like this:

but i'm assuming if these things are driven by gameplay events in some way then the psn and xbox universes are different

rockstar could do the community a solid and release some information on how player activity (buying / selling & in-game actions) affects the market with some information on trading volumes on eg HAL & PIS

Basically you should take something away from the Life Hacker mission and apply it to the other companies that are publically traded.

Also keep a keen ear to the radio and any dialog w/r/t those companies.

Yeah I think the radio / internet news place scattered clues at particular moments. Also apparently each stock broadly follows its own pattern of peaks and troughs which you can start to notice if you look at the graphs over time, therefore enabling you to buy in at the right point in the cycle

heads up - if you manage to make over two bil (2,147,483,647 to be exact) your money will roll over into a negative value

kinda wish this game was more restrictive on how much hardware you can carry a la max payne 3. if only cos it's annoying flipping through all that stuff

It seems a little silly that you're carrying around all three shotguns all the time, for example.

i know it's not in the spirit of mayhem of the game to be too nitpicky about how many thousand rounds of ammo you're carrying, but, y'know, immersion, man

that said the rampages are all A+

as long as i'm WHINING i always wish each weapon had its own particular traits or strengths, so when newer shit unlocks you still might have good reason to use the old stuff.

also the flashlight is an annoying attachment.

i'm p sure i've complained about the guns in every single game i've posted about here.

*casually pulls out rocket launcher from left jeans pocket*

what do you spend the money on in this game? isnt it just like, three stores with a bunch of shirts to buy?

and properties worth tens of millions.

xpost yeah I'm wondering the same thing.

none of the properties seem worth investing in. what does the golf course give you?

I put all my savings in HAL the other day and so far I have made a ton of coin. Thankx ilx

There's some pretty expensive special vehicles on sale on the internet.

buying the properties can give you extra missions and stuff to do. It's also just a progressive accomplishment.

Its pretty funny how close some of all this skates to what you do in the Sims, much bemusement for me.

there are tides in this!

I didnt notice that! I also wondered if the moon cycled accurately considering the console'd be able to roughly know from the date, but i guess the day/night cycles are too rapid.

so apparently my coworker has an xbox 360 that he isn't using and he said he'd lend it to me and now i'm wondering if i should buy this game

also btw i am That Dude that has a projector, so i could play this on a 120" big screen holla

i think yes you should - tho you could also buy rdr for probably pretty cheap and it's even better

Just rent it twice for $6-12

hmmmm

I wonder if "moneybags" exists in the GTA universe

"They call it a Royale With Cheese"

Well, GTA Online is live. I've spent ten minutes waiting for my first session to launch :(

(I joined he ILX crew btw)

I'm planning on not even bothering with that for the first week or two tbh, I doubt it'll be usable any time soon.

Servers look like they're totally down for now on 360. Managed about 15 minutes of griefing-afflicted running around in an almost totally car-free downtown beforehand.

couldn't give a hoot for online tbh, gta for me is single player

one benefit of the government shutdown is now i'm going to have plenty o time to get to 100%

SPOILERS KINDA and no i haven't done it myself

but i think it's hilarious the reward for the ufo parts is so goofy and lame. haha fanboys!

i triggered the mission but i don't know what i am supposed to do and i care just enough to type this but not enough to google it

From my pal:

"GTA Online: character creation, introductory cut scene, mandatory first race -- in lobby for three minutes and counting. Haven't yet controlled a character."

Good thing they took an extra two weeks to iron out the kinks

This is easily the best GTA gameworld, but maybe the worst GTA game?

u rly think so? counterpoint: best gta world, best gta game

all the mechanics and systems seem either on par with IV or improved (and IV wasn't bad at all imo)

mission design is like 1mx better too. the nested setup missions & decision-making of the heists is just awesome.

i feel legit bad for debrah.
