People listen to me! Aliens do exist! We are not alone in this universe. I mean animals exist with us so why can't anything else?

Well, I can give you some limited info.... after finally getting my brother's copy to work I had a quick go... but this was on keyboard as he had lent his joypad to someone and never got it back.... the joypad I brought the little tw@ for Christmas!!

By the way, tw@ is the name of the ingame internet cafe in GTAIV ;)

Anyway, they seemed to handle well, very physical, with lots of body roll and movement in the few cars I tried. The big heavy American muscle cars handled as you would think, and the BMW like Sentinal was fast and heavy to turn like a big four door sports saloon.

From the quick go I had they certainly handled better than previous GTA games. It felt less arcade-y than games like NFS.

Good, then driving cars around won't be PITA nevertheless :mozilla_smile: I remember the cars were not handling very well in Vice city. It was avery good game btw, at least I liked it. Had a touch of humour.

Also, while on the subject of cars in action games, I liked the "Driver" as well (first one), theer wrre some very cool blues music and edgy talk in the game. Theer was aguy who was also calling and leaving (by wrong number) orders for Chinese take-away on the mission answering machine. Some funny stuff. :D

Just found out that if this game didn't have the constantly disk-
checking Securom, you could get 25% more frame-rate instantly.
Too bad we can't talk about it. :((

I found a very good site which will both illimunate the path of knowledge and give cramps in your stomach with laughter while reading the content. It's the alternative wikipedia, the uncyclopedia:

http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page

And some select pages from among those first I saw:

VLADIMIR PUTIN has announced that he and outgoing President George Bush are going to open up their own Ranch together:
http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/UnNews:Vladimir_Putin_announces_ranch_venture


CHAVS: (nearest translation: British version of Ghetto)

economic crisis was just a "huge joke:

Well, actually I have to admit that I don't remember seeing a Chav yet, there are no Chavs around where I live as far as I'm aware. In fact, until last year, I didn't know if Chavs existed at all. So I'm quite oblivious to the concept of Chavs.
I've read and heard a couple of things about the Chav-ism, but they are mostly of humorous nature. So, it'd be enlightening if someone who may have been in that society can explain what Chavs are and what do they stand for? Is it also true that they wear caps with the shop's tickets still attached to them?
