Cheers mate, yeah I'm already past there, I was just messin' :)

Have a ton of money (half a mill +), not much to spend it on, I own a lot of property, so its coming in really fast lol :)

The guy with the auto tuner, I thought he would be really annoying, but he is bloody funny :)

[eor123]

Some of the side missions are absurdly funny...escorting a tiger...really?  :-D

[Art Blade]

you guys, particularly Fiach, are so kind to me.

[Fiach]

Its just karma mate, you give, you get... or something like that  >:D

[Art Blade]

LOL

I completed the campaign last night. What a weird game... of course they threw in zombies for a mission, as well as a Tron-like mission in virtual reality where avatars battle. Your initial avatar is a commode.  ??? There's a space mission and an extreme wrestling mission. Who in the world would incorporate a tiki torch into a game a weapon?  ;D

I guess the same people who would introduce a weapon that throws out chum and makes sewer sharks burst out of the pavement to eat people.  ;D

There is a cameo appearance by a well-known celebrity.

Saints Row Third is like an acid trip...oh there's one of those too. You are naked and tripping and have to kill several dozen gang members in order to feee prostitute sex slaves.  >:D

The words of Bill Murray as Hunter S. Thompson in the closing scene of "Where The Buffalo Roam" come to mind...

"Because it still hasn't gotten weird enough for me yet."

I read a few HST books back in the day, campaign Trail, las Vegas, Shark Hunt etc. A brilliant guy.

I think he killed himself a few years ago :(

[eor123]

Yes...shot himself. N great shock there.

[Art Blade]

After all, this game is not my cup of tea. I think GTA is more what I like :)

Been a bit busy, so havent had alot of time with ST3, just finished a mission called Decoy, which involved alot of air combat, you hijack a VTOL aircraft and have to destroy enemy bases, it got pretty hectic at times, even a little annoying as the objectives wern't very clear (eg I was in a tank and had to intercept a surveillance aircraft...wtf????) anyway, I reloaded and was in another VTOL, but it was worth it, as now I have my own VTOL, it makes it really easy to get to missions, fly to the marker and eject and parachute :)

The story was pretty weak up until the last few missions, but it seems to be getting more depth now, but, while it was a bit weak, it does propel you towards the next storyline mission pretty well, but it intersperses those missions with "activities" like rescuing hoes etc.

Once you complete an "activity" they become available on the map, so you can pick them up for shitsngiggles as you want them. The game is very predisposed to freedom as well, cops seldom get in your face while you are shooting the place up, so it always has the fun factor. :)

I still havent hit anyone with a purple dildo, (much to Art's disappointment I'm sure), but it's early days yet :)

[Art Blade]

Oh, I really don't care what you do with your dildos mate, no matter what colour they might ever be  :-D

[Fiach]

Oh, I really don't care what you do with your dildos mate, no matter what colour they might ever be  :-D

Well, Art.... that hurts, I'm disappointed with your attitude on this, do you realise how many gangbangers I had to kill to get that dildo? Its not just any old dildo....its a PURPLE dildo!!!! ....and just for the record, I never did anything with ANY dildos...EVER....honest... >:D

We believe you mate ;)

[Art Blade]

Oh, I really don't care what you do with your dildos

Well, Art.... that hurts

As I said, and I don't want to know any details, either  :-D

[Fiach]

A thought just occured to me, of wwhat I want to do with that dildo now  :o >:D

[Art Blade]

 8-X :-()

[deadman1]

 ??? 8-X












;D

[Binnatics]

Just saw the game on special offer today at Steam: €7,49 :o
That can only mean the game wasn't such a success as planned, lol

[Fiach]

It was very successful actually, they are clearing that version because of the new GOTY edition just been released.

[Binnatics]

Oh, aha. That got to bring plenty of extras then :)
I was in doubt a while weather to buy the game or not, but decided not to. Got plenty on my mind right now without another awesome world full of soon-to-be-pumped-full-of-lead-creatures :-D

[Fiach]

Its a fun game, you can even fly fighter jets around the city along with other more mundane stuff like tanks etc. If you like that kinda game its well worth a punt tbh. :)

[Art Blade]

Wow, just reading the conversation this has produced makes me worried what would be going on if all of us actually had our hands on the game!  ^+-+

Add two of us to that list. Binnatics and me, we're currently downloading it (steam special price)  :-D And again, thank you Binnatics for your help +1 :-X ^-^

[Art Blade]

looking good. Incredible how many things are customisable and how many details.  :-X :)

[Binnatics]

...Got plenty on my mind right now without another awesome world full of soon-to-be-pumped-full-of-lead-creatures :-D

Well, these "soon-to-be-pumped-full-of-lead-creatures" are dealing with my daily distraction now >:D 8) :-D

The game is fun!! Not what I had expected. It's better in many ways. I like the no nonsense arcade graphics, I like the fun factor. I like the simplicity, straight shooting your way into trouble without too much thinking, and I really like the character customization abilities.
I flew a yet today, which was a bit disappointing, but steering a helo is an interesting variety on the way GTA does that. SR3 makes it easier, although a bit less spectacular. Steering the yet is easy, but the damn thing won't go fast :-\\

But what the heck, the game is great fun!!! :) :-X
