Damn you X-box!
I've been up for 24 hrs now....getting my ass kicked....going back to another game...getting stuck...going back to yet another...a glutton for punishment.

Rainbowsix 3
Manhunt
Alias

I thought only teenagers did this shit?
Am I an addict?

(Not having to work is nice though - if only these dang thunderstorms would go away I could get some fishing in...we had fucking HAIL yesterday afternoon!)

Rambling, I know. Must be the coffee - maybe it's time for beer?

Hail! Jaysus! - I had to pull the truck into the garage. What the hell is up with this weather?

2. Don't beat yourself up

4. I made the mistake and bought my 10 year old GTA....
I'm kind of Liberal when it comes to that shit cause I firmly beleive that my kid won't grow up a carjacker because of some video game... anyway my wife walked in on him while he was playing and that was it for that game... He was up at EB games a half hour later trading it in... He was pissed and I meekly backed my wife on the decision.

"MY KID AIN'T GONNA CRACK NO HO IN THE HEAD UNDER MY ROOF!!!! That wasn't her exact quote but that's what I picked up while hiding in my closet...When my wife get's that mad, run for the fucking hills!

5. Hehehehe- great story
I always make the argument that you have free will in GTA- you don't have to beat up hookers and take their money. In fact, I'm quite ethical and treat the prostitutes with respect :evilgrin:

7. Not my 10 year old
everybody gets whacked.... Besides, how do I sit him down and explain that he should be respectful to hookers... He'd ask why and then I'd be in a conumdrum (sp)... Plus if my wife found out, oooyyyyyy!

15. Just say "Son, hookers are people too."
"And you don't need to kill them, because they're probably already dead inside."

-- Paraphrased from Family Guy.

9. Doesn't Manhunt fucking RULE?
That game is so demented and evil, it's like it was designed specifically to piss off Joe Lieberman.

Any game where you can sneak up behind a guy while he's taking a piss, put a plastic bag over his head and punch the hell out of him before breaking his neck is an OK game in my book.:evilgrin:

It's all good...Splinter Cell with attitude?
Kind of a limited environment, but...

At night, with the lights out - and the 5.1 channel sound cranked up...it is some sweet shit!

11. I didn't like it
I guess I was expecting a GTA type game (since it's made by Rockstar), but I thought it was slow-moving and difficult. Maybe I should rent it again.

14. Thanks...I've tried the xboxsolutions site too, but...
It turned out it was a glitch in the game...I'm locked up in a scene and no matter how I go about getting back through it, it still is messed up. Shit. I hate that.
