It's really amazing how the industry is really taking on the heavyweights.

So I finally got around to trying some multiplayer. And the funniest thing happened while I played it.I was playing Cops and Crooks, and I was the Boss, the target of all the Police.
I jump into a car, a nice dude jumps in together with me to protect me, we drive along, he takes out a police car like a pro, and we continue to drive on. We get to the big roundabout with the gate in the middle (on the starting island), and I ofc thinks to just run straight through the opening. However I mess up the angle, and hit one of the poles. I myself stayed in the car, but my friend, crashed through the windshield and flew all the way down the slope (we were going south), which is at least 200 meters. He miraculously survived, I picked him up again, and we ran off to the boat and won.
Seeing him fly was definitely one of the funniest momements so far in GTA.

well it's not really that amazing when you think that a cinema tickets costs 5 bucks and a game costs 40 (in £)...
im trying to get the 'under the radar' achievement. flew the damn chopper under EVERY bridge. i even flew it under the tiny bridge in central park. wasnt too pissed since i got the 'one man army' achievement. apparently the cops get really really really pissed when you go to an island that is still locked *shrug*
anyway, do you have to unlock every island before you get that achievement?

Costs me ten bucks nowadays.But if it's worth paying it for it...I go.
to be fair i did state in £ which is more or less $10
my point is though they're not really equatable in terms of numbers of people who buy the game/see the film
i'm sure DVD sales will bump up the figures for blockbuster films as well
AAAAARRRGGGHHH
This was so freaking annoying, was playing my first online ranked GTA Race, I'm leading 4/5 rounds, get in a struggle for the first place at the end, I shoot rounds after rounds of bullets on my enemy. His tires are all sparkling, we get to a corner just before the finish line, and then, screen goes black "Please reconnect your controller", soo pissed, still got on second, but I was soo darned close.
