Ohhh I have. I'm 17 just left Secondary school in the UK a year ago.  The kids in that school did my damn head in ¬¬

So...you do know what I'm talking about.

What the flip are you on about, then? Sheesh. You've experienced it.

It was mainly this part that I think was ridiculous:

Both games suck. Only a gangstatard would enjoy them.

It was insulting to me and any other person who enjoys the game. If you don't like the game then fair enough don't play it.

Like I said before it's people who are too immature to be playing the game that will act like asses because of playing it.

I agree completly. That said, It still pisses me off to have to listen to all the messed-up crap at school, and it really pisses me off when the few people that can "handle it" say something along the lines of, "it's just the immature people that get messed up by it, don't make a fuss about it."

Those "immature people" consist of nearly everyone in my entire cursed school, then. GTA, GTA, GTA. Do these people ever go outside? They aren't gangsters. They're sociopathic failures. And they'll grow up to be the "mature" people of tommorow.

It's too late to do anything about it, I guess, so I might as well shut up and leave you all alone. My apologies for digging up an old topic.

Half Life sucks. Only people who have PhDs in theoretical science will enjoy it.
Halo sucks. Only people who are space soldiers will enjoy it.
Monkey Island sucks. Only pirates enjoy them (but then again, that's most of us ... )
...
...
etc.

Don't be a dumbass, Blitzerland.

Not only have you (probably on purpose) totally missed the point here...

Quote Quoth myself: That said, It still pisses me off to have to listen to all the messed-up crap at school, and it really pisses me off when the few people that can "handle it" say something along the lines of, "it's just the immature people that get messed up by it, don't make a fuss about it."

This is why I don't like GTA. Obviously, nobody agrees with me and the entire forum now utterly despises me so I'll just leave.  Surely I am the Lord of Unpopular Opinions.

We get it, zor justs likes to tack his "2 cents" on ¬¬

Well, actually it's my more like 47 cents ;D

In canadian pennies.

Anyways, I hope I didn't offend anyone too badly. My opinion still stands, but I'll try to use more tact in the future.

I've never taken the GTA series seriously. I remember playing GTA2 like crazy at a friends house a good number of years ago. We never cared for the missions, and just went crazy, like most people probably did. Yesterday, I played San Andreas with the same friend on his XBOX. Only this time we dressed him up like hick, drove a mountain bike up to the highest mountain, and jumped off. With the bike. It was hilarious.

Anyway, what I'm trying to say, is that GTA's success probably goes with the "do whatever you want" factor. And the unrealistic physics.

Paper Carnival

We don't have gangsta wannabes here, fortunately... And I find the GTA series hilarious. I wouldn't mind if GTA stayed the same and only gave a new different city with different missions.

For the next GTA I hope they use the atmosphere of GTA 2 because I really loved that one.

On gameplay only, GTA 1 and 2 easily was more fun then San Andreas. Also, one of you said that GTA can turn someone into a 'ganstarappin gta lover'. Partly True. It's like Futurama, with the Brain Spawn. The 'stupid' effect works on everyone except Fry, as he lacks a delta brain wave. Well, for gta, of course more people are immune to gta's "effects". But, like an old friend of mine, some are not. Now, whenever i ask him what he is doing while i talk to him on MSN, all he says is 'playin san andreas'.
Let's hope that Rockstar Games can work on a GTA series that has more civilised- mafia style violence and style.
I'm Blake Gallagher, and that was my two cents.

Mr Jake

Bu' I though' you waz gangsta.


Personally I think video games don't have much of an effect on people, unless they let it. Im sure GTA is no more to blame for "wannabe gangsters" than MTV!!

Could I just use up some valuable bandwidth to rant about morals and such?
Why is it that nobody blinks an eye when a game is released in which you play a gangsta and kill dozens upon dozens of people, but as soon as a tiny bit of sex is discovered a full scale media riot ensues?

Sex between consenting adults (virtual or of the meat variety) is a GOOD thing in my book. Killing people is a BAD thing (to me).

Is it just me or do we seem to have our priorities the wrong way around?

Well, every incarnation of the GTA games have been the target of angry mothers' and politicians' inane rantings because of the violence. Suddenly there's a GTA game with just as much violence as the previous games, but with sex scenes that you have to download a third-party program to access, and all the whining is about those sex scenes.

I'd like to think that the whiners have learned a lesson that moaning about the violence doesn't work. I'm afraid they're just stupid though, thinking that sex is worse than violence.

Not that portrayal of any of those two is bad.
