The Bossman

I'd be disappointed if they do purchase Take-Two. EA are a massive games company sure, but I think they'd change the series by adding unnecessary gimmicks, like they have with some of their other games like FIFA, which used to be good. When EA bought the Burnout series from Acclaim, they essentially ruined it. 2 of the games have been good, though, Takedown and Paradise are excellent, but the other 2 I've barely played since I bought them. I think Take Two should just disregard this offer as I don't see how it can help improve GTA.

I'm just registering now. Not sure if I'll be particularly active, but I'll try to be. There's 4 forums I visit regularly, and that's about it. EDIT: Registered. Nice site.

Click on the image first, then when it loads, right-click and copy as normal. Imageshack sucks, IsaraPix is 1000 times better, it uploads like a horse (fast) Can't say I've heard of them, but you can upload them wherever you want, like I mentioned. Nice effort.

It doesn't look like Bell, he has more hair than that. Unless he got a haircut or something, which is unheard of for an AI character to customise their appearance. It could be Brucie, some random person or a new character.

Okay, first off, I'd love to say this was my idea but it isn't, it's by another chap on a forum I'm on. Basically, here are the rules: Your band name is the article you get when you click this link. Your album title is the last four words of the last quote on this page. - Click on 'New Random Quotations' to get your band name. And your cover art is the top right image on this page. Use Photoshop and let's see what you get. Or, if you can't use Photoshop - like myself, use Paint. Your results will vary, depending on how much effort you put in. For a quick fix, they'll look quite poor. Like my first effort: Let's see what you guys and gals can do then. Again, I didn't create this game, someone else did, just to make that clear. It's fun to do though, I think. Upload your images to an image-hosting website like ImageShack, or whatever your preference is.

I quite like it, but a different avatar picture would have looked much better, IMO. Repetition doesn't work too well together. Other than that, it has a great border and the logo in the middle looks pretty good.

Probably my favourite character, mainly because of the way he makes things look effortless. I'd never have thought gloves and a suit would work together so well. Ameratsu as well mainly because the game worked so brilliantly. Other than that, I have lots of others I like, but none that particularly stand out.

We'll all miss you man, especially the excellent work you do with Photoshop. Just stay on top of things relating to College, and you'll be fine. You're a great member and it's sad you're leaving, but at the end of the day, it's your decision. Hope to see you again soon.

No, the song I mentioned - Shook Ones, was in LCS, and WON'T be in GTA4. I don't know what new song they have planned for GTA4, if at all, it might just be bullshit.

A mum of one of my Dads friends died on Saturday in her sleep, and it was unexpected. I'm not sure how old she was, but she would have probably been in her early 70s, R.I.P.

Gotta say, I share your feeling. Listen to this: Back in 2003 or 2004, I went on a free trip to Wales with my friend and his mum and dad. One night, I was trying to sleep in my sleeping bag - the beds there were Rotten with a capital R. My bag was ripped at the bottom, and there was some HUGE moth flying around in the room. You could hear its wings, it was freaky. And then, it landed on my friends face. Luckily he was asleep, but trust me, he hates green flies - how would he cope with that on his face? Anyway, a few minutes after that, it flew straight into my sleeping bag! How I shit myself, its wings flapping like crazy. I've hated them ever since.

Don't Stop Believing - Journey, awesome song.

Valentines Day is so overrated. All we do is stuff we normally do with our girlfriends anyway. Why bother lavishing your girlfriend with lots of care and attention on one friggin' day when you have 364 other days to do the same thing? Anyway, today is one of my days off - I have 3 days at Uni each week, and 2 week days off, and then there's the weekend, so I'm off more days than I'm in. Doesn't mean I have more free time though, I'm always busy with work. EDIT: 2000th reply.

These are my current favourite songs: Visions - James Newton Howard (from the film Unbreakable) The Artifact And Living - Michael Andrews (from the film Donnie Darko) Safe Passage - Hans Zimmer (from the film The Last Samurai) Ketto - Bonobo (from the album Days To Come) Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger - Daft Punk (from the album Musique Vol 1 1993-2005) Gimme Shelter - The Rolling Stones (from the album Rolled Gold Plus) - The opening 50 seconds are superb. Don't Stop Believing - Journey (from one of The Sopranos albums, it's the song for the final Sopranos scene.)

You didn't put the Mobb Deep song up there though. Admittedly it was a freestyle in the link RaZ posted, so it might not happen, but a Mobb Deep song was in GTA LCS - Shook Ones Part 2, so I'm not sure.

Good news, but I don't really want to pay for something that's been free for a few years. The other bits in the article were interesting as well, Kane & Lynch 2 apparently in development, and Splinter Cell Conviction to come out on PS3. I doubt that though, I think another article came out after Game mentioned that, stating it won't appear on PS3, sadly.

Mine should have been upgraded to 8Mbps in January - it was a free upgrade by Tiscali, from 2.3Mbps to 8Mbps, pretty good. BUT, it keeps jumping around from day to day. Today, as in right now, it's 3.4Mbps, but if I log off and log in again later, it'd probably be 2.7Mbps or something stupid like that. Still, anything higher than 2.3Mbps is a bonus, considering it's a free upgrade. EDIT: I took the test like 3 times, and there were different results for each one, so I don't think I'll post my result. It seems very inaccurate.

I usually play Pro Evo 2008 for PS2, seeing as the PS3 version is shite. I also play the Hitman games, Splinter Cell games and Metal Gear Solid games. I have many more that I play, but they're mainly individual and it'd take a while to post them all up here.

Football Manager Handheld on PSP. I leave the game to play while I type. I'm very successful as well, I've won everything during my 4 seasons so far as Man U boss.

I don't really have any rules, except for no swearing I guess. I swear when I get angry or when I've accidentally kicked my foot against a cupboard door, and I presume that's acceptable. I don't have any limits for when I sleep, but if I have to get up at 7:00AM for Uni, I go to bed 11:00PM or 11:30PM. When I don't have to get up, it's usually 10AM, and I'd go to bed at 1:30AM or 2:00AM. Recently it's been 2:00AM. I help out with the dishwasher and other things, so I don't really need rules.

Happy birthday dude, hope you've enjoyed it so far.

I'm really surprised someone found that, it's such a small detail when the camera zooms out. I found the vid BTW, but I'd rather not talk about it. PM me for details.

Any idea where to find this intro to the official site? I'm guessing it isn't anything special judging by the lack of people asking about it. What did it feature, anyway? Also, I thought planes were a strict no-no for the game?

Hang on though, have you found this site just because it's the cheapest? I'd personally pre-order from a well-known site like Play.com or Amazon.co.uk, to avoid disappointment. And don't think about waiting outside the shop, pre-order it and you don't have to worry about any of that. Only use that site if you're sure they're a decent site, otherwise go for one of the 2 I posted. EDIT: Having said that, the site looks okay. But TBH, do what you feel is best.
