Well, I've been too wrapped up in GTA IV to post in here! Until now.

M31: Aside from failing missions 68428626782 times because of stupid characters (that aren't MEANT to die) actually die at the slightest touch, it's been great! I've been screwing around a lot in Free Mode, being a total sociopath and experimenting with the realistic physics (like going top speed down a freeway then launching myself out the windshield when I crash head on with another vehicle).

M31: Or stealing semi's and crashing them into other things so much they catch on fire, then jackknifing on a busy freeway, and watching the ensuing explosion. Or doing the same thing, except parking it in a gas station that happens to be near a police station. Yeah.

Sad thing about the game: THERE IS NO TANK. So far. They haven't found all the cheat codes yet, so there might still be hope. (I really really want the City in Chaos cheat they've had in all other games. Seriously. Random car explosions, pedestrians fighting each other and the cops, random fires.)

One of the things that makes some of the missions easier is the whole friendship element. You meet these characters and hang out with them (take them to play darts, go bowling, get drunk, go to a show, etc.) You get their relationship status high enough, you get bonus stuff (cheap weapons, car bombing, helicopter rides anywhere) that can help out a lot.

(Now I think I'll go and bury myself into the game again to distract myself from the fact that you lucky people attending Amphi get to hang out with the boys! I will be a lucky person, someday. )

Luck is the operative word here. But tumultuous times require equally intense playtimes, so I decided to go ahead and leap and go being I *really* needed the break. Not that you or anyone else doesn't, mind you. But I had a sliver of opportunity for a mini vacation in between class/work schedules so I jumped on it... need to recharge the batteries with some fun for a change!

Of course! Take a break! Don't think I was really bitter about not being able to take part. I'm sure it's not going to be the only meeting. Perhaps their next North American tour will include a city I happen to be close to *coughcoughWinnipegcoughcough* I'm sure there's enough interest there that will make the stop worthwhile.
