I've seen a lot of posts on the Internet saying that LC in GTA IV is almost an exact replica of New York (at least Manhattan). While the general locations of famous landmarks were surprisingly well created, Liberty City is still way too small to pass as an NYC re-creation. The most basic test is to take a taxi from the southern end to the northern end, having it drive legally. I'm not sure how long it would take in Manhattan (probably around an hour, considering the traffic), but it took less than...

Well, 7 months after buying GTA IV, I finally took it out of the closet and installed it. First thing I did, after the hour and a half it took to setup, update, and tweak graphics (to the very lowest level, of course, except traffic density, which I kept at 100 since I love driving through traffic in games), and finish the first mission so I can save, I went online for some multiplayer.

Wow, what an amazing experience! Besides the lack of lag, deathmatch gameplay was just plain fun....

Argh! I can understand that American companies will only ship free within their own country, but I hate how's there's no big online retailer in Canada. Especially when I'm looking to buy some bowling balls and they only offer free shipping to the United States. I wouldn't mind paying shipping, it's just that carrying 35lbs of stuff across an international border costs a hell of a lot of money (sometimes over $100!). If they had a warehouse in Canada I would have to pay a lot less, even though the...

I was surprised that this film, despite its profanities and explicit nature, portrays bowling fairly accurately. The pinfall doesn't look staged as in some TV shows and movies. They depict hook, which most shows don't. Even the 7-10 split was converted somewhat realistically. And at the final tournament Munson even gets to face off against real-life greats like Pedersen and Bohn III.



lol, 1000-1 odds. Note...

I've decided to take some time off my around-the-world-flight. I thought it would be exciting to see the sights of the world, but it's actually so boring! Nothing but miles and miles of open water or fields or rivers. Anyway, I managed to make a landing inside the Louvre Museum's courtyard in Paris, France. I've made a video to go along with it. Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2IE5kODUPE
Enjoy!
