ok, so i’m sure anyone who’s played any GTA in the past decade or so knows of the upcoming release tommorow. i’ve always been big into the GTA series and have not seen madness like this for any game in awhile, or ever.

here are a few links that are worth checking out.

http://www.justin.tv/juicefog : this is a link to a streaming game of GTA IV that has been going on for god knows how long. they say its legit but there has been a pirated version out for about the past week.

http://ps3.ign.com/articles/869/869541p1.html : IGN gives GTA IV a 10/10, i haven’t completely researched this but i think it is of only a handful of games ever to be given a 10/10, and this has not happened in a very long time. there is also some nice game review video’s on that link.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20080427/lf_afp/lifestylevideogamesusitchildrencompanyrockstar : as usual we have our suit and tie wearing conservatives that have never held a game controller or psychology textbook in their life try and analyze a game and its potential dangers. it has already been banned in a few US cities. no suprise there.

i pre-ordered mine on amazon only to find out 2 days ago that my “pre-order” is now delayed and will not get to me until may 5th-9th (or perhaps even later). this will eliminate me from purchasing from amazon again any time soon, if ever.

futureshops across canada are opening at midnight for 1 hour to sell whatever copies they have in stock. i am tempted to go buy it there now instead of waiting another week or two for my pre-ordered copy.

there is some serious hype going on here and although i am willing to wait for my copy in the mail i would definetaly like to play it myself and see if it is indeed worth that 10/10.

groove on.
