Grand Theft Auto IV pushed into Q2 2008

Rockstar games has announced that the newest entry in the Grand Theft Auto series has been delayed by at least 5 months to the very vague window of February 1 to April 30th 2008.

Obviously, the delay is due to needing more time polishing, fixing bugs and to better hide their hidden minigames. But I wouldn't be surprised if a contributing factor for the delay was that the fall lineup became a little to crowded. What with Halo 3, Mass Effect, Bioshock, Super Mario Galaxy, Smash Bros. Brawl, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, Heavenly Sword, Ratchet and Clank and a whole host of other hot titles coming out, who can blame them?

If you're in the need for a free roaming game why not trying some games in the same genre like Crackdown or The Godfather (Any but the icky PS3 version)?

As for me, I'm still trying to find all the !@#$%ing orbs in Crackdown.

Hey Yall!

Hey everyone, I'm really excited to have this opportunity to have an outlet for my thoughts on games and the gaming community. I hope everyone enjoys reading my incoherent babble!


If it's too good to be true...
Today I went to circuit city to take advantage of the $20 off certain xbox live accessories sale. Naturally, it was the free 1600 point card I was after. It was way harder then it had to be. First they didn't have any, which isn't surprising considering that this is a big deal, but then they couldn't even find it on the website. They had the 4000 card but that wouldn't provide me with my free item fix. True, I could have driven miles and miles away to another store but, I didn't want to leave the country. As if that wasn't bad enough, their computers wanted me to pay full price not including the discount($40) for a rain check. Thankfully the clerks worked it out ringing it up as two $10 items. Basically, I paid $21 for the promise of having a free card. Oh well, at least they let me have a rain check. That darn Wii still evades me.
