I've long been a supporter of the devs doing things the way they always have because they really do owe us nothing. LFS has already redeemed its cost 10x over for me, so anything new from the devs is a gift. That's the way I look at S3. I don't expect it or demand it or get angry and impatient for it. I just hope that, maybe one day, I'll come here and find S3 stickies to the front page waiting for me to click download. Nothing else could put such a smile on my face.

That said, I do wish we could get a "We're alive" post sometimes. Literally just a check in, something to tell us they're still here. It's like having a missing family member. You never know whether they're dead or kidnapped or drinking Piña Coladas on some Polynesian island. Every day you just wish for one sign that things are OK, that somehow they made it. That's all I want, to know things are OK.

Just a thought.

On this map there's a large number of safe houses listed with no connection to the actual story. I went to a few and they all seemed to be pretty average or upscale apartments with a keypad on the front door. Some had a driveway. I think these are all potential purchasable safe house locations for GTA online. You'll type in something on the keypad and load in to your or your friends apartment.

You found a Stinger GT in traffic? I assumed all the cars on the legendary motorsport page were purchase only.

Exactly why it's faked, no one doubts that.

The first house is on the beach, I believe.

That's Franklin's first safe house, his aunt's place.

Must be photoshopped. There would be more poop in reality.

Quote from BlueFlame :Lets be honest, people who favour Vettel are either ex-Schumacher fans or people who've only watched F1 for 5 minutes.

Schumi fans stayed Ferrari fans and now hate Vettel, unless they are complete band-wagoners.

You're right on the second point, though. The only Vettel fans I know are people who started watching post 2009.

Each character gets 1 hangar spot at the international airport (bought separately), but I think it's only planes you buy that go there, not ones you land there.

Don't get me wrong, I'm delighted it's happening but I'm sure the injuries will come flying in any minute like Kev says.

I swear they didn't just script the traffic for chase scenes/missions either. Sometimes it seems like regular A to B driving during the missions is even scripted.

I know it's only 5 games in, but Arsenal leading the table? WTF?

I used cheap crew members. You'd be surprised how much money they eat up.

Slight spoilers:
So the final score is $200 million, right? 1% of that is $2 million. That means the difference between a 14% payout for a gunmen and a 8% payout for a gunmen is $12 million. Really, when you think about it, some of the hired hands are getting paid more than you. The best way to save money is to use Richie Linkens, the hacker from LiveInvader, because if you used him in previous heists he ends up with maxed out hacking skills and only demands a 4% payout.

Completed the main story with $30 million, then did the assassination missions and followed the accompanying stock tips...

$250 million per character.

Actually a really awesome photo, even without the penis.

Yea, I've seen no less than 3 different claimed endings, all different than the one I actually saw on youtube.

If you guys didn't see, launch day raked in $800 million. It took GTA IV a week to do that.

Quote from CoolColJ :10-15 mins or so to install actually

There goes my sleep.

Went and paid in full at the store earlier today. Now I get priority (separate line cutting everyone, even preorders) when I go back at midnight.

Not that it matters, because it will take 6 hours to install.

Depends. I've seen streams where head on collisions lead to instantaneous explosions, but for the most part it does seem that you only get light dings and scratches off of collisions.

The damage model itself is much more realistic though, with fenders falling off and some cars only partially burning when lit on fire.

Quote from Racer Y :yeah. 9-11 was an inside job. See, one of the people that worked there was going to blow the lid off that whole fake moon landing. So in order to cover up the murder, they decided a terrorist attack would be a great idea. The free Masons, working with the Illuminati and the Nation of Islam recruited Bin Laden and his whacked out henchmen to be the scapegoat. like what they did With Lee Harvey Oswald and Princess Di's REAL driver. This was all done as part of a long term strategy to get Obama in the White House. And we all know who he really is.
They made one small mistake though. See the guy they were after was a janitor that worked second shift. He was in New Jersey at the time of the attack. But don't worry he's safe. He's living in N. Korea with Amy Winehouse. That's why Dennis Rodman goes over there so much.
Haven't you noticed the increase in UFO sightings since Bin Laden was killed?
It all makes sense.

You know, this could be expanded into a real funny satire of conspiracy theorists.

I'm sure that Rockstar did plenty of market research that showed the majority of the public thought IV physics were too loose/bouncy/uncontrollable so they made the driving a bit easier.

That said, from what I've seen its pretty freaking hard to fly helicopter and airplanes. Autohover is gone and it seems like you actually have to have an understanding of roll, pitch, and yaw to fly safely. As if that isn't hard enough for most people, the camera dynamics for helis and planes is literally nausea inducing. Lots of people in streams complaining of motion sickness.
