OUTLAW SPAM ALERT!!! There was no point to that, it was just random.

I remember a story (late '80s or early '90s) about one state in the US having to change the chemicals used for lethal injection. It caused cancer in lab rats.

Except for mine having DOS 5/Windows 3.11, that's the BEST computer I ever owned. Ran "Star Wars: Dark Forces" into the ground on it, racked up a lot of time on "Doom" while I was at it. I just found it in storage & I'm thinking of firing it up w/ some of my old games just for the fun of it. Rocketbox 4.2 (my current machine) is annoying me once again. Motherboard went & gave me the black screen of death. Closer examination reveales several capacitors on the boadr were bulging. I tried using a small hammer to flatten them out, but no luck.....

FULL POINT! The worst thing R* could do is to capitulate (had to let the spell checker sort that one ) to J(A)T. By the time whiners like him got done, we'd have the Teletubbies or some crap like that. The next step would be to "monitor" forums like this one for "inappropriate" content. Next stop, people like Jack(ass) Thompson are managing our lives & telling us what we should or shouldn't do & it would just get worse from there. All because no one stood up to the guy when it was a little thing. Pay attention in history class, you'll recognize some of this.

Uh, it's oven cleaner. If you're dumb enough to (intentionally) put it in your eyes, you kinda deserve what you get. If they need to test that badly, use unclaimed cadavers. This should be a fair indicator. As for shampoo & such, there's no reason a convicted serial killer on death row can't volunteer (of their own free will) to see what discomfort will come from soap in your eyes. Small price compared to their victims. In my area, there are several labs dedicated to volunteer human testing of pharmaceuticals. The big difference is they have to compensate their volunteers.

If it makes you feel any better, I've dealt w/ plenty of American educated doctors. Wanna know a secret? They're ALL retards! Have only meat one worth anything & he moved out of state. It's just an idiot TV show & if they offend enough people, it'll just go away. In the mean time, just change the channel, that's what I do when Louis Farrakhan or some other idiot starts spewing. Yes, I called LF an idiot. He should've stuck to jazz.

That's why I said "Don't ask how". Too many people would try to recreate my results. I also caught a live opossum w/ my bare hands once... MLL - I think it was aerosol Windex....

They need to do a lot of work on their AI spawning to be a real threat to GTA. Saint's Row was good, but the AIs always showed up in the same places, they need to be more random so the gameplay is a little more interesting.

Are you on PSP or PS2? PS2 has more jumps (& rampages).

Remember to use DELETE instead of REPLACE option when you remove the original model (.DFF & .TXD). I remember some of the IMG tools having a problem w/ the REPLACE option. Make sure the new model has the same name as the original when you put in into GTA3.IMG. I used EXTRACT to copy the original model to my desktop & would save it as a back up (for example, when I replaced the SNIPER w/ a Dragonov) as Sniper OEM before I deleted it from the IMG file. If you don't like the new weapon, you can just put the old one back in. Any way, read the rules, welcome & enjoy.

Just remember step 1 - STEP 1: ALWAYS BACK UP EVERY FILE YOU PLAN TO EDIT!!! Some of the best headaches happen when you don't do that.

I don't think a mod would help, the GTA VC engine didn't support trailers & there are no trailer vehicle types in HANDLING.CFG to assign a trailer to. As far as the game is concerned, the trailers parked in VC are just like buildings or trees. If someone does know how to make this work, by all means let us know.

Henchman can go after peds (Tony can't, instead of shooting he babblea about not being a "cock-a-roach"). Remember that next time that pink & white wannabe VW van runs you over. Enforcer takes a chunk out of GANG heat, but has a lot of "Loose the Cops!" missions. Have a boat ready nearby & you can do those quick & easy. The Assassin is SUPPOSED to take care of COP heat, but isn't very efficient at. Usually generates as much as you get rid of. The good part is the jobs usually pay enough to pay off the extra heat & still make semi-decent money. Suggested vehicle would be the Attack Boat & work from the water. The Driver doesn't do anything for heat, but you get to seer some of the better cars in the game before they get unlocked. Too bad you can't keep them. Play around w/ them a little, you might have fun w/ 'em.

Speaking of the store, is there any timeframe on getting it (& the quiz) updated? Just curious.

Or if you're handy w/ Windows PAINT (or similar) you can make your own skin for Tommy. Open any skin & play around w/ it a little. Just remember to use the to use the SAVE AS option & give it a new name. I played around & made my own "Luchador" just for laughs.

I don't know, the premise of the game worked out pretty good. Maybe a sequal to the movie won't be so bad (if done right).

That's the funniest thing I saw all day! Can you play that to "Tears of a Clown" by Smokey Robinson & the Miracles?Glad I checked in.I'm out, catch you guys later.I'm gonna cough up a kidney over TM's little vid......

Condemned criminals could volunteer to gain a life sentence for a lot of the tests they do on animals

Send out the Enforcer, he cuts gang heat & earns money while he does it. Use one of your EXOTIC cars & you can pick up any weapons your targets drop & put them in your trunk (FREE GUNS!!!) + loose cash & grams. Each mission should cut 1000 gang minus 50 points for each gang member you take down, so 10 targets will eliminate 500 points. If you want to rack up heat fast, street dealers will get you 2000 points of heat. If you guys haven't figured it out yet, you can switch to your playable henchmen (driver, enforcer or assassin) & put their weapons in your trunk. They stay there for Tony & the henchmen get new ones when you call them again. You get a pipe & AK from the driver, a shotgun & M-79 from the enforcer & the assassin gives you a .45 & sniper rifle. THIS PHONE CALL IS OVER!!

No comment. I'll have to sit down & type out "Night of 1000 Tires", when I got "John" a few days later (just before he left). If it doesn't show up in a day or two, remind me. Hands are hurting.

Mel - The worst part is that I've known several people who owned Pitts, they're great dogs until some jackass goes out of their way to make them mean. Now some jurisdictions won't even let you keep them (thanks, dumbasses). My GF had a huge Rottwieler sh rescued from dog fighting & salvaged her. Jen should have been put down, but GF worked w/ her & she was a great dog. One of the reasons GF decided to stay w/ me was because I was about the only guy Jen would let near her. The dog lived to 16 or 17 (never completely sure on her age), from what I understand almost twice the average for the breed. I miss that mutt, might get another someday.

To bad we don't see more of the Aussie models here in the states. Max's V8 interceptor was a '73 Falcon (XB?), & I recognizes his Vega wagon (from their vacation), what were the other cop cars (blue, red & yellow MFP cars)? In VC I replaced the Vice Cheetah w/ the V8 interceptor & the FBI Washington w/ the MFP cruiser, they're sweet.

Don't know if this one counts (I have ABSOLUTELY no regret on this), but here goes... About 12 or 13 years ago, a friend went through a messy divorce. Constant flat tires, broken windows, etc. I tried to stay out of it but the final straw came when I found a bunch of "Gay Pride" bumper stickers on a car I was trying to sell. In itself, it was no big deal, but I knew it would only escalate. So I get together w/ my friend & we figure it one of two people responsible. The first was the ex's little sister's boyfriend (17-year-old redneck punkass). After replacing 2 engines & 3 sets of tires on his '65 Chevy pickup, he lost interest in her & dissapeared. The other was "John", the guy my friend's ex screwed around w/ & left him for. I caught him one night just as he got ion & went to bed. His bedroom window was just within reach of the ground & I figured I'd use that to send him a message. "Bill" (the friend) was driving his old Surburban & pulled up in front of John's building. "Be out front, engine running, lights off & the back door open. I'm gonna come out of there in one Goddamn helluva hurry." I told him. I went around & did the "poor man's flamethrower" (no, don't ask how to do it.) in through his window as I yelled "YOU'RE PLAYING W/ FIRE!" I ran around to the front & yelled "GO GO GO!!" as I dove into the backseat of the truck & he tore out of there. Ironically, John was a known gay basher (most of his neighbors were) & as soon as they knew we after him, they covered for us when the cops got called. "Oh no, officer, we never saw a truck like that tonight. John must be lying." was all they ever told the cops. A couple days later, John appeared in court w/ Bill's ex (custody hearing), w/ a crew cut. I had set his head on fire. They suspected it was me but never proved it, decided I was a Psycho & left me alone after that. A couple days later, John left the state. SILBERIO, NO!!
