    I think this is the only Let's Play in the world where the main focus of the conversation can shift from My little Pony to Japanese pubic hair in less than 5 minutes...


    Needless to say that's one of the reasons why I love you guys.

    Not grayer, gayer.
    Seriously, though. I hear it's really colorful and campy and has the best gameplay of all three GTA4 stories.

    I like the screenshot you have for this episode.

    It reminds me of the best part of Saints Row 1: the bug inspired musical that came out of it.

    That's what I actually thought his post said at first, and I thought he was making a joke about TLATD being so gay that even the episode titled "Gay Tony" couldn't be gayer.

    With all the "I love you, my brothers" in the Lost, it would have been an appropriate comment!

    But even in the first hour or so BOGT is already a lot more colorful and we learn more about Luis in that time than we did about Johnny in his whole episode. So yeah, it's better already.

    Adus, I'm going to echo the sentiments that someone in Roosevelt's GTA4 lp thread said.

    Never stop doing those.

    Oh...Oh my...So much COLOR. Adus. Fess up. You just had the saturation turned way down, and finally decided to turn it up, didn't you? Cause I wasn't even sure color like that could COME from a GTAIV game.

    I just crushed through LATD and am almost through TBGT, both for the second time.

    I can never seem to get sick of this game, love seeing all the detail of the city - still amazes me.

    The thing about headbutts is, it isn't very wise to hit forehead to forehead, unless you're certain your opponent doesn't have a thicker skull than you. Smart headbutters aim for the nose, which will cause more pain to the opponent and less to you.

    I'm quite happy with the driving. The cars feel like cars. Like they actually have some weight to them. As much I love the previous GTA games and Saints Row 2, those cars feel more like toys.

    I think ALL apartments need cage girl. All of them. Ever.

    I like to think that Luis left the cart to get away from the talk about crabs, but then went back when he realized he was about to abandon a sweet golf cart.

    I like that theory. Makes the screencap more amusing.

    So like, if anyone thought the missions weren't all that great so far in the first couple videos then all I gotta say is just wait because the next set kicks it up a notch.

    Adus, bro, the YouTube link of part three leads to the SECOND part.

    Edit:
    The whole thing about subconsciously saying the same thing at the beginning of every video occurred to me as well when I was watching Morninglord's Prototype LP; in the first few parts the first thing he always says is "okay" and he pointed it out... it's really weird.

    I love that post-helicopter mission phone call. Stuff like that really makes this game great.

    (Although the one you get after the cage fighting mission was annoying to me.)
    Luis' mum basically bitches about how he lost a fight, and she didn't raise him to lose. After he threw it FOR HER SAKE. Grah :evil:

    (Not sure if it was intentional, too, but DEFCON doesn't work that way :P)

    My little pony is mediocre as hell, and how popular it is astounds me.

    That's really all I have to say about this video, since that's all you talked about....Other than the fact that that copter just wanted to be your friend.
