  I don't really approve of the outlook on life and society that the GTA games promote, but they are always just plain old fun. I gave in to the hype since I found Gamestop have a decent deal on it and preordered.   As for it being a 'negro game', well, the previous game, San Andreas, was definitely a 'wigger' game. This one seems to have a different approach.  I'm not much of a video game player. I used to play them when I was a kid, but now I barely touch the things. But I have to admit the GTA games have always been a guilty pleasure of mine. They're pretty fun , what can I say. I even liked playing that last one they did where the main character was a gang banging ni##er. At first it ticked me off, the whole black ghetto theme. But when you think about it...sure let them portray Blacks as gang banging criminals, it's realistic at least:D Let the Blacks look bad and not us, y'know. Plus...you just got to run around shooting Black and Mestizo gang bangers.....I mean they may as well have called the game Ethnic Cleansing or something ;)    Like I said, I barely ever play video games. I own a PS2 and X Box but I bought them years ago and they don't get much use these days. The only game I ever really play is Madden NFL, I play it quite often actually. But this new GTA 4....I've seen alot of stuff about it , it looks pretty cool. Too bad I don't have a ps3....they cost like what 500 skins?? Jeez, talk about highway robbery.     I agree Octopus, I don't really approve of the outlook of these games either. But it's not meant to be taken seriously, obviously. If I had kids I wouldn't let them anywhere near those games. But they are intended for adults, and it's all tongue in cheek and just for entertainment so I don't mind. I'm not a Puritan or anything like that:cool: You guys who are $RICH$ enough to blow six hundred smackers on a PS3 will have to let me know how this game turns out.     - The Patriot -    PS- The character is supposed to be Serbian eh? I heard he was Eastern European I figured he'd be a Russian or Ukranian probably. Hm..interesting. Doesen't anyone else think he looks awfully dark for a Serb? Hopefully he's not one of those damned Shiptars from Kosovo!!
