    san andreas was the only one with bicycles

    which were, pretty much, my favorite part

    that sentence there works equally well with or without the commas

    So San Andreas continues to be a big fat heaping pile of fun. How do the other two in the GTAIII series compare? I'm really tempted to pick up Vice City on steam after finishing San Andreas, but is the original III any good, or has it been dated by the other two?

    Vice city had a pretty good story and feel to it. Although in my opinion, San Andreas is the best of the series so far. Not going to get it for PC though I think... tempted... but I already have it on the xbox (which is back at home while I am at university.)

    GTA III was not bad either, I actually liked the cars in that one better than vice city and whatnot. It is just not as open as the other two. Also it lacks motorcycles if I recall correctly.

    I've always liked Vice City the most. It doesn't have all the extra crap like defending turf and stuff that I didn't like about SA. Plus the city isn't all brown and it has Ray Liotta. The 80's gangster stuff is more fun for me than 90's thug life too.

    Also in Vice City two stars = Tubbs and Crocket are on your ass.

    Get 6 stars, then go to a rooftop, then see the whole police and military swarm around the building unable to lay a finger on you. Was fun for like a minute then I returned to what I was doing.

    Oh, and then I stole their tank

    It's a lot of fun on the PC, but using a gamepad can be rather annoying. You can't map out the d-pad at all, so no changing the radio station or doing mission-skip or choosing yes/no responses on anything but the keyboard. You can tweak some stuff, but not very much without running out of mappable buttons.

    FreeSpace 2 apparently has a really nice-looking fan update, I'd be interested in trying that out if I could find my old joystick.

    also, there are supposedly lots of mods for the update that include other IPs.

    Find the Freespace 2 thread in G&T.

    It links to the FS2 installer which automatically downloads the full game and all the upgraded shit and it's awesome.

    I don't know, but I hope so. Perhaps it would help me forget the bitter taste that the 360 Arcade game left in my mouth.

    You Got Flagshipped!


    A term that was started on the hellgate: london forums, used to refer when you buy something and in turn the thing you bought is:

    A: very poorly made
    B: broken
    C: bugged out to all hell (refering to a game)
    D : not getting what you paid for
    Tim: "I just bought a new table today and one of its legs broke"

    Bill: "Man you got flagshipped"
