    I have not played a video game since Madden 93, so about 18 years or so... All of that stuff just looks confusing as hell.. Doesn't interest me is the problem.... Is it a fun game?

          It got great reviews from critics. I've not been a huge fan of Rockstar games so far. Gameplay mechanics on GTA4 were crap but hopefully they improved on this one. I'll wait till it hits about $20 but anything put out by them tends to keep its value for a long time. Still waiting on Red Dead Redemption to hit my buy point.

              I'm still waiting for these games:

              Rage
              Elder Scrolls - Skyrim
              Mass Effect 3
              Deus Ex Human Revolution

              I expect to experience a terrible time sink between Sep-Jan. FML the games are just great though.

              That's not even taking into account Battlefield 3, Modern Warfare 3, Gears of War 3, Duke Nukem Forever, Dead Island. Goodbye social life!

                I don't play these games but the advertising for this is slick. Looks interesting.

                    yea i mainly play madden/nhl/fifa and maybe COD/Gears but this is def a very unique game. i wouldn't even compare it to GTA...just a very different type of game than anything out there.

                          it's okay. i've played maybe 2 hours or so and i really still can't tell if i like it or not. it really isn't like you expect it to be. looks like a gta-type game, but totally isn't. can't really play it w/o paying attention to everything...

                            Got it up from K-mart after seeing a nice deal they offering when buying L.A. Noire. Will play probably after the Thunder-Mavs game...

                              Picked it up after work. Played about 30 minutes during the Bruins intermission and its alright. Slightly confusing.

                                Saw the ads on TV a while back, thanks for reminding me.

                                Just checked out the trailers/reviews, ordered it online, looks killer.

                                Im a big fan of Rockstar games, have all the classics (Red dead, GTA) They always impress...

                                  WTF MAN... seriously? Yes, I do own a PS3 (only for a year) and the only game I've bought so far is Madden 11... really the only game I play in spare time. You really spend that much on that many games in a short time span and put time into each of them playing?

                                  If I want a certain game outside of 1 annual Madden purchase, I'm going to go cheap and get the $20-30 range. Maybe a racing game, would be fun to play a bit here and there.

                                  Guess I should be glad I suck at shooting games and not many games interest me

                                      L.A. Noire is definitely going to be a purchase in the not too distant future.

                                        looks awesome, but im just going to wait a few weeks until people beat the game and put it up for sale online. should be able to get it 30 bucks in short order.

                                              pretty sure its the same engine. so don't expect any big changes. just new areas and new shoot outs

                                                I really want to play this game, the only question is do I get it now or down the line on sale.

                                                      Considering it's only a SP game, might be better to wait it out and wait till it gets cheaper

                                                        only SP? bah. I emailed a guy I knew that worked for Rockstar about a game like this. But for MP you could be on either side: Cops/FBI or gangster/thugs. You could build up cities with friends on the same side, and then other groups of ppl could come in and try and take over your city. Kind of like king of the hill.

Yes, I do own a PS3 (only for a year) and the only game I've bought so far is Madden 11... really the only game I play in spare time. You really spend that much on that many games in a short time span and put time into each of them playing?

                                                          If I want a certain game outside of 1 annual Madden purchase, I'm going to go cheap and get the $20-30 range. Maybe a racing game, would be fun to play a bit here and there.

                                                          Guess I should be glad I suck at shooting games and not many games interest me
                                                          I rarely watch television or go to the movies besides with friends/family because 99% of it is shitty. I still read but when I'm looking to be entertained mindlessly it's not ideal. Video Games are great void filler because most are either just fun gameplay wise or an interactive novel that doesn't require the attention or focus that a book does. It's just escapism basically and the reason I hate sports/most racing games (I would just go play it IRL). You can get through pretty much any generic FPS single player game in a weekend so the games go by fast.

                                                          And I get why most people don't understand it. It still won't stop me from having fun though

                                                            I just bought the game yesterday. I haven't played much of it. But it seems pretty good so far. I'm definitely going to be playing some more today!

I'm hoping it gets pretty crazy. When they sold it they were like I need to read to u it has adult language, content, nudity. etc...and I was like, this sounds like my type of game...haven't seen any tittiess yet
