Moot point. Godfather won't install, keeps saying I need directX 9 (which is already installed). Anyway, back to topic.

No, just like the cars. Nice '66 Stang (even the one w/ the wrong engine, old school hemi).

Later 'taters, I'm out. Cry HAVOC & let slip the dogs of SPAM!!!

I expect Niko to be fairly serious & the game to have subtle humor, the kind of things you don't catch right away.

He couldn't get her to understand that, she just freaked out over what it implied.

A friend let his 10-year-old play VC once. His wife walked in, saw the Stretch "bouncing" & freaked. For sale, PS2 - CHEAP.

Don't remember shooting dogs & scalping, but the horse got tired & I think it had "health". Just finished Scarface, so I'll probably reinstall GUN this weekend. I'll watch for those things. Better yet, if J(A)T invades my game, I can scalp him.

You must be playin' wit' 'chur own ding-a-ling!

Thanks Spaz, people just don't think about how quickly things happen w/ little kids. It literally only takes a second for an accident to happen, it just usually doesn't involve a 450 ft drop. I can only imagine the father's state of mind right now, he's gotta be going through hell. Eric Clapton wrote "Tears in Heaven" after his toddler died falling out of an apartment window. It can happen to anyone. I'm raising an hyper-active autistic 2 1/2-year-old grandson, so you can guess what that does to my hairline.

Don't take this the wrong way, but if your copy is legit then how are you playing it w/out the disc? The most you should get is a message saying "INSERT GTASA DISC" or something like that. Advise against loaning out your disc if you have problems getting it back.

FULL POINT! I'm betting you also understand personal responsibility, being accountable for your own actions, things like that. Sounds like your parents did their job right.

I hate people who let their kids run wild & make no effort to control them. I'm not saying beat them, but I really don't need someone's 3-year old climbing into the middle of my table at a restaurant while I'm trying to eat. They can also keep the screaming tantrums. Jace - Sounds like your parents worked for what they have, good on them. I agree w/ your dad's "work for it" approach. My oldest daughter had everything given to her by her grandmother (after she decided I wasn't fit to raise my own kid) & now it's come back on her (daughter). She's had DWI, probation & dropped out of school. I help where I can, but I hope her looks hold & she marries well. When my youngest turns 16 in a few years, she'll get an old Ford Maverick & a tool box. Real simple, you wanna drive, you make it go (I'll help, I just want her to understand cars).

BTW, recommend NOV '07 EGM. Has a few good pieces besides Saint's Row 2. If I want the poster, I'll wait a few months & get it for a couple $$ on e-bay.

If you replaced a lot of cars, that is probably your problem. Most of the models available are much higher resolution than the original SA counterparts. It sounds like your video is struggling to keep up. Not sure what the equivalent is to your ATI, but if you're running a lot of high def models, you'll want AT LEAST an N-vidia 5500 w/ as much video ram as you can get. I say N-vidia only because it's what I'm used to, If ATI works for you run w/ it.

I think that's what I just said....

?!?!?! Are you serious? That's like slaughtering cats because they steal baby's breath. There MIGHT be a story behind that (false) belief, but I'd bet it also includes extreme abuse & starvation of a dog.

Yeah, you can string Tow Trucks & Farm Tractors to make your own congo line. Back up to a cop car in traffic, if you do it right you can take them for a wild ride & let 'em go right off a steep drop or into another cop car.

Pizza Boy usually shows up in traffic. there is a BMX parked on the long pier at Santa Maria beach in LS (same one from the end of OG Loc mission "Management Issues"). It's usually there. The one across from CJ's Ganton house may not show up if you're on foot. Run to the liquor store behind your house & back & it will usually spawn

Listening to Phil Cassidy in "Boomshine Saigon", on the way to the hospital.

Not only did Tommy talk, he usually had something good to say & the Hawaiian shirt just rules. Once again, Tommy made things happen as opposed to letting them happen.

Remember when you had to get pics of Alex Shrub in VC, something like that w/ Jack Thompson & then you hack his website & post them. This would be a good one for using a Sanchez & being chased through Liberty's version of Central Park by JT's goons on Faggios. The pics could be of him in a negligee & heels kissing a donkey or something like that. In '89 the US Supreme Court ruled public figures could NOT seek damages from parodies (People VS Larry Flynt). Let the fun begin.....

I have NEVER understood what makes someone think drinking solves their problems. This kind of thing just pisses me off because alcoholics just don't get it. They have to completely destroy their lives or kill someone in a DWI before they realize the affect it has on those around them. Best thing I can think of since you're a minor is to talk to your local chapter of Alcoholics Anonymous & see if you can get any help for you & your mom. Like any other alcoholic, your dad's not gonna do anything to help himself until he's good & ready. Just make sure you're out of the way when his world finally does blow up in his face, you & your mom need to look out for yourselves (since he won't).

Pretty bad when I'm looking at it for $5 & the guy at the gameshop says "Don't waste your money". Surprised "Grand Theft Horsey: Dodge City" (GUN) got mentioned, I liked the PC version (at least until a virus got me & I had to wipe & reload). I'll probably dust that one off when I finish "Scarface: TWIY".

So, when do you pick up PC version & start modding?

Count this as one more vote FOR Pitt Bulls. Raised right they're about the best dogs you can have, ESPECIALLY w/ kids. Pitts get a lousy rep because inbred jackasses use them for dogfighting & make them mean. Vick (football player just busted for running dogfights) should be thrown naked into a pit w/ a dozen or so starving fight dogs, PUBLICLY! Special tax on dogs? Other than a license (in city limits) dogs in the US don't require any special taxes. What crackhead came up w/ that idea?
