They're going to let us stew over it a bit, I'd guess. Probably let it go long enough for us to get angry, then give us some more info.

Maturity and age do not always coincide. In fact, they seldom do.
Finally...
It's a tad hard of a concept for some people to understand, both "mature" and "immature" alike, I find.
^ It was the same story for me, maybe off by a year or so. As for your point about 7 year old playing GTA 4 I totally agree. I have a little brother who is in grade 5 and I introduced him to video games at a fairly young age (6 or 7). He learned how to play Halo, couple of Crash Bandicoot games and others but I always tried to stop him from playing GTA. Both my parents and I thought that it was a bit too violent for his age. He got his hands on it a couple of times while no one was home of course
Anyways yeah I moved away from home for university and left the 360 with him. He has the option of playing it now but I think he still sticks to COD or whatever.Uuuhh.... FPS war games are okay, but not GTA? You still kill people. And you can even still be the bad guy in war games.
Yeah I guess that's the contradiction in my logic. Like Red Squirrel said, the older GTAs seem a bit more violent in some ways than GTA IV since you had access to chainsaws, katanas, hammers and whatnot. But one might argue that, that is just as violent (if not less) than calling in an airstrike or throwing a grenade to blow your enemies to pieces. I dunno I started playing games like Counter-Strike fairly young and I turned out alright. So he should be fine too.
Well, following that same logic, I played GTA at a young age. I started with GTA 2 when I was like 11-13, somewhere in there. Then I got GTA III the year it came out, I was 13? And at 11 I was listening to hardcore rap and vile music such as "ICP". I still turned out okay(arguably). Granted, I went through a "juggalo" phase, but it stayed just that, a phase. None of this "clown for life". But that's another argument for another discussion....
Point is, if you can handle killing people in videogames, you can handle killing people in videogames.

12 is mature enough to play a game like vice city or GTA san andreas

And don't forget that rather unique, very defining house station. I could totally tell the difference between ALL the songs!

Does anyone (ie Chris or Spaz) still keep in contact with Tom? I talked to him years back on MSN, but I wouldn't know his email or anything anymore.
I remember he returned for a very short while, and then left again. I haven't talked to him since then, but I do recall attempting to find him.
-
Been so long haha having a busy life college, home, work life's a mess as usual...had been a long time since i was last active. Feels good to be back.
Then it's probably insulting for me to ask who exactly you are......

I think the main reason why people dislike facebook is because they have no one to talk to. I don't find the point in twitter anymore, its just like texting, and the SMS language changes every month...
I hate Facebook / MySpace / Twitter / etc equally. They aren't safe, maybe I'm paranoid, but if anybody on the internet knows as much as my real name any information about me can be compromised as well...
As long as you don't give out information, it can not be obtained. And I mean, as long as you're not the only person who shares your name... I have always been a tad bit on the safe side, I've never used my real name in social networking sites. I mean, I use "Spaz Smith" on Facebook. However, Google+ told me it was unlikely that it was a real name and that I couldn't use it.

Rockstar knows best about radio stations. Whatever they make, it will be awesome.
I tend to agree with this statement. Again, you may not like all the music, but it is fitting for the game. And Lazlow is awesome, and as far as I know has worked on all the soundtracks since GTA III. At least the major console releases.

@Llama
Bout time.
Anyway 1st time I even heard of Facebook was when I saw that movie, can't remember what it was called. It stars the guy from Zombieland.
"The Social Network"? All about that crappy guy that started FB
I think this picture sums that up....

I bitch at people all the time because they cry that they got hacked. Noooo, you're just retarded and clicked something you shouldn't have clicked. If you don't know what you're doing, get off the internet. For the record, it's mostly common sense. Then I get yelled at for "not helping any".

Could be called ''GTA V'' for marketing purposes... people usually think of spin-offs in titles that aren't numbered.
But it's MAIN audience are already established GTA fans, and they all already "get" their naming process, or did, until they went and changed it.
-
Why are people still suggesting that it's going to be Tommy Vercetti or Toni Cipriani? Aren't we forgetting that Rockstar said that any of the previous characters from the GTAs before GTA IV will not exist in the new GTA universe??
Ah, but here's the kicker. They never said no one from previous eras would exist in the GTA V universe. Besides, the simple fact that the next game is GTA V is seemingly breaking one of their rules. Usually, we do not get another numbered game until we get another "world", and sometimes another engine.

Uh, the clone would be the same thing as the original, otherwise, it isn't a clone. There would not be any reason to have asbestos in a clone of anything that did not have asbestos in it.
Your brain does not produce THC, it produces anandamide, which is an endocannibinoid and acts in the same manner as THC. It regulates things such as appetite, mood, sleep patterns, etc. It is possible to be "cannidinoid-deficient", and in such case, the only real solution would to be to ingest THC.
Regardless, we are not cloning meat over here. I think Japan has some reward for the first person to successfully create synthetic meat.
To the government being cartoonishly evil, it isn't exactly the cartoonish part that worries me. The shit they are trying to do over here in America, and most of the citizens are unaware. America wants to control the internet. What an absurd idea!

Glad you finally looked at this thread, Chris. I don't remember the blue layout, but I do remember Pyro showing me the high scores list, which is why he started coming here. People always talk about how long they've been here, and how they remember "the old days"..... I was here before IPB was here.
-
Believable, if everyone is who they say they are. And that dumb blonde bitch definitely mentions the GTA trailer, and that he was in an episode of SVU.
-
I actually came back a bit before the announcement. It was completely coincidental. But I'll go with it, I guess...
-
I would like to have a dubstep + LSD night, myself. Or 2C-I. Sounds....... Incredible.....
-
Am I the only one who can't stand it? In my opinion (don't go raging at me all you dubstep people) it sounds like total shit and requires little talent to make compared to real artists or bands that actually sing (not the auto-tune artists). But hey, that's just my opinion.
Music isn't about how much talent is required to produce or write it. It's about how it makes you feel when you listen to it. It's about whether it makes you want to get up and scream, or jump on the dance floor. It's about movement, energy, and life.
Some of my own dubstep..
Bring the bass up. Way up. I can hardly hear it.
Oh and thanks for FINALLY defining dubstep for me guys..... However, I had already figured it out. For the record, NERDSTEP for the win......

We never had that TGTAP meetup.
Who wants to get beaten with my 26-inch baton?
Now, don't go teasing me, Gerard!
*Insert BDSM joke*
We need a TGTAP meet up. That would be so awesome. Would I be the only lady?
No, Chestnut would attend too, provided we could make it. So yeah, have it in Florida so we can make it. The weather sucks, the people sucks, and there's nothing to do but DISNEYWORLD and Universal Studios.......... But we'd be able to make it!

I'm a little dissappointed of several things...
1st the graphics, they look LA Noire-ish. GTA IV had style I'll give Rockstar that much...
Then the cars, some of them resemble their real life counterparts about 90% and the remaining 10% are some random body mods that totally ruin the design.... others are just flat out ugly. The Huntley from IV was awesome, this one is... bah. I also haven't spotted any customized cars...
Lastly, I haven't seen any shooting... just a few guns that still look like crap.
1. Duh, being a game based in the same city made by the same people around the same time? Probably going to look similar, just sayin'.
2. Who cares if ANY of the cars resemble their "real life counterparts"? And there has to be ugly cars and crappy cars. I'm sorry, not everything is going to be fast and sexy just for you.
3. Again, who cares. We don't need car customization. But you know what? I didn't see any customized car in the original San Andreas trailer, either.
4. We don't need shooting in the trailer to know we can do it in the game. Just like they don't have to show someone stealing a car, we kind of already get that by this point. I mean, it's only the 13th iteration, not including Lost or Ballad.

I don't know why you're giving me shit since he's the one who keeps replying crap to all my posts. And my name... well my nick name isn't TUNA, douche.
Because you're mostly just being negative about GTA, on a GTA board. That is the essence of a troll. Either stop, or you can go else where.
Thank you, Gerard, for spiking his breakfast for me. I KNOW that just a month or two ago it was automatically removing embedded quotes, and then BAM! quote training.
I certainly hope some of that info is really leaked. But really, how could we ever know? What if it IS leaked information, but then they decide to take some of it out, and then it looks like rumor?

Oh ok so DLC was out for xbox and ps3.. well my point is that it did never get released for PC which is sad. Anyway with Los Santos.. So basicly GTA5 is San andreas though moved slightly so its in Los Santos now ? Which means San Andreas could be on the map ?? I cant remember los santos at all from SA.. Except a radiostation with that name.. Did we get to actually go to Los Santos in SA ?? San Fierro was the hillbilly contryside right ?
The DLC did get released for PC as well actually. As for San Andreas you got access to each city in the following order Los Santos (Los Angeles), San Fierro (San Francisco) and Las Venturas (Las Vegas). San Andreas (California) is the state that those cities are in, so based on the official R* announcement the game is set in Los Santos with the surrouding countryside, mountains and beaches. Basically the bottom half of the old SA map that totalaccessGTA posted. However, if they are re-imagining the city, they might change out the layout and geography just as MLL said in another thread.
Las Vegas isn't in Cali, it's in Nevada.

In Florida we have Almost Summer, Summer, Not Summer Anymore, and Fall. That's it.

Hola TM, and other guys I haven't seen/talked to in a very, very long time. Good to see you back around. Better stay that way
Dammit, you're still here? Nah man, peace. I can't be on the internet with the likes of YOU!

Well, I mean, what HAVE I got to loose? People will fall for anything these days. It's like Darwinism for the internet.
