But if you've upgraded your v1 to v1.01 with the official patch, I think you also need downgrade again, as that patch also prevents the hot coffee mod, if you didn't want to buy the new game. (as well as fix a few bugs).
If you want to get rid of the v1.01 patch, all you gotta do is reinstall the game and you'll be back to your original v1 game.
That makes sense, but downgrading with a patch would be less of a hassle than re-installing the game

That's a great video, really a nicely done satire. I can't imagine what it must be like for homosexuals to always have to hear these questions, I mean if people kept asking me that, I would seriously punch someone out.
That map is interesting, its no surprise to me that the countries marked brown and orange and stuff are mainly African or Middle Eastern, but I feel that a lot of people of the blue countries, or other countries would also love to make it illegal but because they are more "civilized" they know they can't.
And you're so right about love, nobody can control who they may fall in love with, it just happens whether its a man, woman, short person, tall person, fat person, and so on. Its like defining beauty, no one can really do it, since everyone has their own perception of beauty. Banning gay marriage would be like banning love/marriage to a person whom "society" does not define "beautiful" enough to get married.

Minigun has the most destructive power and can destroy anyone and anything in a matter of seconds, but the M60 is my favorite I think. It just has great power while not being as bulky as a Minigun, and it looks sexier.

When you're in GTA IV, all you have to do is press "Home" to bring up the LIVE menu, and then select friends and then I think "Invite Friends" or something like that, if you can't figure it out, I'll add you.
Sounds easy enough. I'm not a huge fan of GFWL to be honest, but I'll add you tomorrow. Don't feel like playing today...
If anyone else wants to add me, go ahead.
Meh its alright, doesnt interfere too much with the GTA multiplayer itself, just lets you invite friends to a created game, etc.

I was using "can't control love" as an example for homosexuals not being able to control the way they feel because in your above post, you said you believe homosexuals do have control over it to some extent.
My last post was just directed at the "can control it part". I have seen in your other posts that you are for gay marriage, I just wanted to address the last part. And maybe I did misinterpret you or take you too literal on that, and if I did, I apologize, I just take issue with people saying "they can control it" (even though I know you said you think they can control it somewhat, in comparison to someone who is born with a different skin color), I guess I was just lashing out in general at the people who do completely think being gay is a choice and they can control it, and what not.
And I know the question wasn't directed at me, but in an open discussion others are bound to get involved.

I didn't read everyone's replies except the first few and last few here, but wow. Seriously this is like, amazing stuff.
First of all, you come on a forum and post an Anti-Obama thread. Only 40% or so of our visitors are Americans, that's 60% of people right away that disagree with your views (or do you not believe various worldwide opinion polls either, pretty much every worthwhile country had a majority side for Obama). And I don't know what the final figures were for actual Americans voting, but obviously less than 50% of Americans agree with your views.
Expecting anyone here to agree with you is foolish.
And yes, as rappo just pointed out, you DID lose ALL credibility with the Bin Laden remark. Unbelievable.
Damn straight!
In my opinion, I actually pity Obama a little, I do believe he is the better man for the job, and I know he won't be able to change everything instantly, if at all, but I do think he'll lead the country in the right direction. But the reason I pity him, is because the people hyped him up way too much, they made him out to be like a messiahs, and I think many will still realize that he can't just snap his fingers and make everything better. And as soon as he has to make a unpopular decision everybody will be on his ass because they expect nothing but greatness from him and probably don't understand how tough his job really is, and I find that unfair towards him.
Something people have to realize, especially the black people who think "yeah! now one of us is in office", Obama will still do whats best for the country and the world, and if you're poor now (no matter if you're black, white, mexican, or whatever) you will still be poor long after Obama leaves office if you don't try yourself to change that as well. Obama can only do so much with economic stimulus and all, but the people need to do something as well.

BUMP again.
Anyone here still watch Wrestling?
The Royal Rumble was absolutely awesome. I love Randy Orton! His character is so great at the moment, he has a very nice move set, great mic skill. I think he's taking his place as the top talent of the younger generation. Can't wait to see how the McMahon storyline pans out.
Also the MAtt/Jeff, Edge and soon to debut CC storyline is surely going to be great as well, and lead to one hell of a Match at WM25.

So I'm trying to find some fun people to play GTA IV online with, but on my usual forum that I go to almost no one has it, so I thought I'd ask here.
Who here has GTA IV for the PC, and plays online?
If you feel like it, add me: Teracell

Harwood - Depends what rights you're talking about. If you're talking about basic individual rights, freedom, voting etc - then homosexuals have never been denied it. If you mean marriage and adoption, then black people or women were never denied it.
In some countries you get thrown in jail or killed if anyone finds out that you're gay. That's just obscene.
If you're asking whether gay marriage should be legal before apartheid ended, I don't think that. Individual rights come first, then the additional stuff. Just long as you don't kill me just because of who I love. Yes it would be very nice to be able to marry and adopt, and I see no reason why we should not be allowed to do that, but the other stuff comes first.
You said, "Why have societies' attitudes changed towards some things (class, race, gender) but not others." I was trying to some what make a point. Race and gender are things we can't control and we shouldn't be limited in rights because of that. Homosexuals on the other hand had the choice between being straight or gay. Now I realize that the majority of the people here think that homosexuals don't have a choice and I believe that to an extent, but they have a lot more control over that than people of a certain race and or gender.
Society has gotten past the extremely stupid idea that race and gender matter, but they haven't gotten past homosexuality and that's the next step, not saying that looking down on homosexuals isn't stupid. As a society we have to realize that personal choice shouldn't matter if it doesn't effect others.
Let me ask you something, have you ever been in love? If so then you would know you can't control love, it just happens. I believe with homosexuality this is exactly the same, I hate people saying homosexuals have control over it, at least to an extent, no 99.9% don't, they just feel the way they feel. I myself am not homosexual, so I can't say what you feel like, but as I mentioned I could imagine it feels like falling in love, it just happens, and you can try to not let it happen, and you can try to tell yourself something else, but when you're in love you're in love. And when you like someone from the same sex, then you like someone from the same sex.
Also, even IF homosexuals could "control" it, who is anyone to say that they should? If someone chooses to decide they like the same sex, why is that wrong? Because religion says so? We shouldn't base our life on something that could just as well be fiction.

While I'm completely un biased about religion now, everyone living in America has to realize that the country was brought up with Christianity. Which basically means, at least in my opinion, favor the Christians more. In recent years that's obviously changed.
You are quite right on this, which is, to be honest, one of the biggest problem in America, I don't mean to offend any Americans here, but America is one of the most intolerant countries in the world, mainly because a lot of Americans know nothing about the world, they never leave the country, hell they don't even have a passport, all they believe in are their Christian values and what the media tells them to believe. Again, not attacking Americans here, a lot of countries have that problem, but for a nation that's supposed to be "the greatest nation in the world" the US has a shit load of problems, intolerance being a big one.
I completely understand why many people (mainly Religious) would be against Gay Marriage, or Homosexuality in general, but they need to learn that their scripture is based on something thousands of years ago, and that common sense alone should already dictate that everyone has the same rights, and should be treated equally.
Dude.... Chestnut and I are totally planning on moving to Germany((99.9% because we want away from this hellhole))..... We can bunk with you, right?
Haha, sure but, um, certain 'services' will be required to...you know "pay rent", lol.
Gerard in a way also strengthened my argument, because you can't compare the rights of the three groups because they weren't all discriminated against in the same way. But it also brings up an interesting question, all of you who are against gay marriage being legal, are you also against homosexuals being allowed to vote, or work in the same place as you?
-
How the fuck can you say gays shouldn't have the same rights as every other person? What makes them different apart from the fact that they like the same sex? They are people like you and me. Being homosexual does NOT define who you are, its just a sexual preference but it doesn't make you a good/bad friendly/unfriendly, and whatever person.
@Harwood Butcher: I know the question was directed at Gerrard, but I thought I'd give my thoughts on it too, now I had written out a nice paragraph on this, but when I finished I realized that actually if I think about it, that's a stupid question to ask (not calling you stupid, just in general the question itself), all three groups should have had the same rights as everyone else to begin with. I mean, again we're all the same we may have different skin colors, sexual preferences, accents, or whatever else, but in the end, aren't we all human?

Skipping missions is not possible as far as I know. I don't even think there's a trainer or a mission skip mod.
Some trainers just have timer stops, but thats about it I think.
If you have VC for the PC you can always upload your savegame and ask someone to beat the mission you're having trouble with. Most missions in VC aren't that hard if you just stick at them.

But if you've upgraded your v1 to v1.01 with the official patch, I think you also need downgrade again, as that patch also prevents the hot coffee mod, if you didn't want to buy the new game. (as well as fix a few bugs).

Alright cool, thanks for your help Noru.
Once you get the PC version, add me, and we can battle online

Thanks I figured it out now, for me its "Space" because I had changed my key configuration.
Do I actually have to kill the person after I counter them or just basically counter them once (so duck, and then punch)?

TM - "Most of my mates aren't really use to seeing gay people kissing" - neither am I. I don't see people doing it much, it's not as if I live in a gay city where it is normal. And because I know people like raybob will murder me, I don't go around doing it in the street.
Adding to the kissing, I don't want to see homosexual couples like straight up making out on the streets either, but that's because I don't want to see heterosexual couples do it either, I mean if you wanna stick your tongue down your partners throat, don't do it where everyone has to see you, lol. Although I guess I have done that before already as well with Girlfriends, but I try not to do it.
But otherwise, what do I care if someone is gay, straight or bi, it doesn't change what kind of a person they are, it just means they have a different sexual preference.

I don't like gay marriage. I'm not into bashing at homosexual people, but gay people are, for one thing, "products of society"; OG Loc wanted to be gangsta just because he was exposed to CJ and his mates, and there are circumstances that a buy would end up gender-bending, given that his exposure to all things girly went sour, as in he begins to play Barbie dolls with his sisters or something.
Sorry if I flamed or something, but I'm just disgusted at same-sex marriage, I don't see anything good (genuine love or something like that) in it, you know.
I know you have your opinion, and that's fine. But how can you say that there can't be genuine love in a gay marriage? There can be just as little or as much love between two people of the same sex, as between two of the opposite, and you can't discredit that because you don't know.
And it seems like you're saying that a normal marriage is always based on love, and perfect, but how many marriages fail? About half of all people getting married end up getting a divorce, even though they probably had genuine love when they got married.
Personally, I am for same sex marriage, but mainly for the reason that I don't care what other people do, if they want to love a person of the same sex, then so be it, if they want to marry them, fine by me as well. Everybody should have the same rights and the freedom to do what they want, whether I approve or like it is another matter (in this case I do approve, but I'm also talking in general). Who am I to say what other people can and can not do?
Love and marry whoever you want, as long as you don't force your sexuality onto someone else I don't care.

I don't have a pic for it, but I'd choose a Penthouse like Playboy X has, all the way at the top of an apartment building, that doesn't look to suspicious with the roof to myself and all that good stuff.

If we go realistically and by character then it would be:
1) Tommy
2) Niko
3) CJ
4) Claude
5) Victor
6) Toni
But if we base it purely on say GF's in a game, then CJ, but that's more of a technicality win, than an actual win
Tommy FTW!
EDIT: Darn, just noticed that this topic is already way old!

I want to get the "Finish Him" Achievement, where you have to perform 10 melee counter attacks, the only problem is I don't remember the keyboard key todo this. I read you have to get someone to attack you then as they try to hit you duck them, and counter them, but I don't remember which key you have to press to duck/counter the attack, can someone here please help me?
I've tried looking in the manual and under the key configuration but it just says the keys for the second attack etc, but not to duck/counter.

When you load up the game, at the main menu screen or so it should say in the bottom left (I think its left or just in one of the corners) what version it is.
