Hi. What? We're you expecting intelligent thoughts and deep meanings? If you were, I'm sorry, that guy moved out. Who am I? I'm Daisy Duke. I know. I got a lot of garbage for it in school. Please don't add to it.

  XBL Players..

  Ok, so I was playinz GTA IV online (my favourite online game), and over time I've met some alright peoplez. Some have been HUGE jerkz, but for most the timez, itz been okeyz. Then, one time, I was playinz, and there was a bunch of us all talkinz about our favourite cars (mine was the Gadgetmobile), when this random girl comes on. It was the basic thing you'd expect, some of the guyz started beinz all nice, but then, she startz beinz a complete jerk. I honestnezz don't get it, she made a big deal about being a girl against a bunch of guyz. I've played with girlz online, and they've been basically like any other player.

  And then, like, sometimez, again, on GTA IV, therez the most racist people I've ever heard! Like, if therez anyone who isn'tof like, anglo whatever descent, they're gonna get garbage from some jerk. Like, itz jus wrong, like, how much the "N" word is tossed around. Here in Australia if you said that you'd get dropped in 0.5 secondz flat.

  Then therez also my kind of player, and I admit,I probzly do get annoyinz. But there are peoplez worse than me. Like, peoplewho play music into their microphonez, especially when itz screamo or rap. It jus soundz worse through a microphone. Then there are peoplez who sing. And peoplez who recite thingz from showz/youtube (guilty).

  If you gotz any otherz peoplez, leave a comment.

  Dave Goes To LIberty City

  So, I haven't finished GTA IV, but here's how I'm finding it so far.

  Well, it starts off showing a guy getting punished by a mistress. Kinda freaky, but whatever. After a while of conversation, sprinkled with the ever colourful accent of the "old country". Niko is a man who wants a new start in The Land Of Opporunity, and his cousin promises this, but, his cousin is a filthy liar. The first thing I noticed, is that Niko is a generally likeable guy. Previous entries in the GTA series have had us running around as Tommy Vercetti,the typical criminal. Unfortunately, due to the Hot Coffee controversy, I missed out on San Andreas, but what I did play of SA was not impressing.

  Anyway, Liberty City is all new. The minute you walk out onto the street, it screams New York. It even comes with foul-mouthed New Yorkers. It rocks. So, I went to steal a car, and I am used to jumping in, and finding the keys in the ignition. But, the door was locked. This was expected. But what shocked me, was Niko smashed the window, and the game had me hitting the triggers, madly hot wiring the car. Unfortunately, the police saw me, and I was into a chase.

  The driving in the game has also been revised. Instead of flying around corners at 110km/h, with no reprecussions, you will find yourself having to brake, lest you spin out and end up with your car in a wall. But, have no fear. For most cars, this is a simple thing, and will feel fluid with a bit of practice. Anywayz, the police are following me, and it seems about what you'd expect. Sirens, speed, wanted stars. But then in my mini-map, there's a flashing red and blue circle. This circle shows how far you have to go before you can escape the police. One star is easy. Two stars is kinda tough. And that's as high as I've gotten so far.

  So, I get away, but my car is a wreck. Luckily, Niko is far more agile than his predecessors. He can climb, vault over small fences, swim, and other stuff. What makes this such a big leap, is how smooth it looks. Normally, GTA characters are essentially robots. Niko, though still retaining a slight robotic aura, moves much smoother, and it's just good, and makes the whole experience a lot more enjoyable.

  You'll be hearing more once I've finished the game, so yeah, I highly suggest buying it now.

  Gloves... Friend or Foe?

  So, I broke out my old gloves the other day cause winter was starting to set in, and when I took them off, my hands felt completely dry. Too dry. If I moved my hand, it felt like there was no moisture whatsoever. So, I have come to the conclusion my gloves are evil. Yes, in fact, one of them was the stunt double for Michael Jackson's white glove. I SHOULD HAVE SEEN THIS COMING!
