I'm almost convinced Trevor is one of the greatest video game characters ever. And the guy that did the acting and voice over did such an amazing job...

They're all the shit, including Lester, black dude is a little boring maybe but he has his moments.

Don't think Xeros is far wrong though, Trev is one my favourite characters in a long, long time. His intro is pretty epic n all :)

Also, one of Trev's hairstyles is an epic mullet. That should have been his default hairstyle. I played with it all through the game :D

Oh shit, I need to get Tevor to the barber.

How's the online gameplay? I'm anxious to get home and try it out...

Well, it took me a few tries for the GTA cloud to respond, and now that I'm in I can't launch a session. I'm sure the servers are bogged down, which is understandable. Good thing there's plenty of single player action while they get everything sorted...

They didn't underestimate anything. They even said they expected things to be rough at launch. They're not gonna launch servers for all the peeps who are trying the game twice and then never again.

On that note, MS wasn't quite prepared at all and all that traffic crashed a few of the Live services.

Frankly, with the enormous number of copies sold already, it would be an amazing feat if <s>Rockstar</s> MS was able to flawlessly accomodate everyone from the getgo, let alone guarantee it.
I wouldn't be surprised if there was something to that extent in the EULA.

Looks like the timeout issues are a problem on Sony's (and Microsoft's, as mentioned above) end, not Rockstar's

Quote:
For PlayStation 3 users, a PlayStation Network server issue was detected that was limiting the amount of possible concurrent users. This was preventing most players from accessing GTA Online altogether and as of this morning, that problem was resolved.

if you're not in a clan, yeah.

well actually. theres the missions/gametypes MP, and theres the freeroam MP. the freeroam is, at it's core, a lobby system where you team up and join missions, and in this freeroam city you're gonna get killed/run over/mugged/chased endlessly without any reason nor gain for the other players.
comparable to RocketArena during Arena Select, come to think of it.

so yea. griefers unite. till you get some serious folks who actually want to play the game as intended. then it's a-ok.
prolly gets better after the next cod game gets released. then all the griefers will move on to the next bro-game.

Multiplayer is great. But, I've also only played with people I know, so I haven't experienced the random kills that you'd see on public servers...

I played online for the first time last night and had a blast. Seriously the MP on this game kicks ass.

So do you guys have a quake 3 crew created or something? I've just been hijacking fighter jets and collecting bounties on people. The WTF reactions when getting attacked by a fighter jet are pretty awesome.

Yeah it's a pretty active game atm. I can't get enough of it, I think I barely moved from the couch all weekend. Lost a car and 140k to a bug in the game though which sucked. Can't wait for the DLC to hit in the next week or so. (free dlc btw)

I finished the main story a couple days ago. Now I'm just sandboxing and buying up properties. I think it says I'm around 80% complete. I guess the other 20% are races, skydives, and random events?

Mostly yeah, I haven't touched the single player game since I started playing online.

The online shenanigans are too much fun.

You can have lots of fun with the cargobob helicopter btw. picking up randomg peeps who go afk then dropping them in the ocean/on top of buildings is amusing as hell.

There was this one guy robbing a store and I saw his getaway vehicle parked near the doors so I picked it up and just went up with it. When he got back out I'm sure he could see it was still in the same spot on the map but the car was gone. the WTF that ensued was hilarious until I dropped it on him.

For someone so attractive, she's an ugly human being.

She ain't gonna win anything. There's nothing in GTA V referecing her whatsoever. I heard it's in relation to the girl with the ifruit phone taking a selfie but that shot is modeled after an actual model that isn't lohan.

There's also a mission involving a young starlet but at no point did I think they were making fun of lohan. It's complete bullshit.
