Blacklisted, though invited to the old GTAForums, where I was Slamman, I'll re-introduce going forward... told by someone GTAForum declared Life-time ban, they gave me, withdrawn, but I found there's like minded fans elsewhere even if I thought we shared a common love of game, there's always Debbie-downers in the bunch who love rain parades.

Spent my time with old console software and finding new entertainment value in it.... also, revisited both original trailers for GTA 4, it's roll out was not short on teasers or press, unlike this time, and prior to that even Rockstar addressed modding in the press, the idea early on to extend each games life.

Ramping up PC capability but still nearer to 6 years behind today's latest tech. If anyone real is playing along, what hardware are you using with which game? Do you feel console CPU over GPU translates to better GTA??

Long time no see, BL, how have you been?

With VI on the way and only available to next-gen consoles I hear the pricetag (or at least for UK pricing) is roughly £100 now(?) For a damn GAME. I can say for sure I'm not purchasing a console just to play GTA VI.

I'm only gettin' older, to quote an old song, but the funny thing is, GTA4 is my thang at the moment due to RAGE and Rockstar divulging so much of this new generation of gaming, it was followed by GTA4 Episodes DLC, a novel and frankly, too little, too short way to expand the existing map game-play

I'd noted online, sharing by the voices behind GTA and RDR for fans at conventions and podcasts, and additionally, server online game-play, I only watched these but they were very enjoyable.

I'm goofing around with the Xbox360 for it's final year of a working capacitor based clock, it seems, it will reset all game save potential to 2005 after this year, bummer, big bummer, .... !! .... forced obsolescence

Addendum; To add, the Playstation 5 Pro is out and available at Walmart for instance, but costs roughly USD $700, the just under $500 standard PS5 and Xbox X choices, still too rich for my blood but I need the new consoles for a long gaming life I hope, still left gas in the tank. The problem is Rockstar's development time equals the life of console generations.

I'm looking to get a ODD or DVD BluRay version PS5 used through eBay or Craigslist , Stateside
