http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/blog.php A current listing of cheap video games, video game sales and video game deals: CAG en Thu, 23 May 2013 19:48:53 GMT vBulletin 60 http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/images/misc/rss.jpg http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/blog.php http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/blog.php?b=23814 Sun, 25 Mar 2012 12:37:58 GMT I'm not sure how trustworthy this website is but they posted this information from an ex-employee yesterday.

http://www.examiner.com/playstation-...kstar-employee

The protagonist will be one character, and one character alone. His name is (as some rumours said) Albert De Silva. He's a half hispanic man who was once part of a crime family in Vice City. He decided to settle down and have kids in Los Santos. He has one son called Kevin De Silva who is your stereotypical CoD player. He's lazy, useless and shouts racial abuse online and is really into FPS games. Kevin does admire his Dad though.

2. Multiplayer will hold 32 people on the Xbox and PS3. I wasn't told how many were able to be on the PC. Just like in RDR, players will be able to form Gangs. These gangs are not ranked through XP anymore, but via Reputation. Instead of gang hideouts, you can do jobs that range from robbing a launderette to breaking into a military base and stealing state-of-the-art weaponary. The Gang leader has much more control over his or her gang by being able to rank members of their gang and setting more specific objectives to specific members of their gang. Gangs can have their own terratory but this only applies to areas inside the city of Los Santos.

3. The map is about 5x as large as the GTA IV map and the City of Los Santos takes up just under half of this area (so it's a bit bigger than 2 GTA IV Liberty Cities).The map is (like most GTAs) seperated into three different sections.

4. Planes are flyable, they range from World War 2 fighter planes to Private Jets.

5. Cars and guns are customisable to an extent, for example, you can cusomise a gun to have a supressor on it and you can install nitrous into cars.
Here's some stuff you might like:
1. The protagonist is the "rich guy" from the GTA V debut trailer. You get to learn more about this man in the second when he talks about his troubles. You only see the protagonist twice in the trailer. First time is the side of his face and second time is when he is driving a Deceptor (Audi R8). The people robbing the jewellery store are just with the protagonist. He is driving the van ready to get away.

2. Gunfights are more realistic. When you are shooting a gun out of a window of a car, depending on how fast it's going you will have troubles aiming due to shaking cameras.

3. The game is due in May 2013. A more specific date has not been decided because the game is still needing 6 months to be fully developed. They will have a playable demo at E3.

4. Police chases are now way more than either running or driving. Depending on how wanted you are, police may bring out riot shields and flash bangs. 5. When someone reaches 4 star wanted level, there will be a radio warning on some stations.

6. Radio stations now do traffic reports that are actually correct. So if you don't know what route to take, you can check the traffic reports on your phone or the radio. 7. The in-game TV now has many more channels

8. The protagonist DOES NOT die unlike in the last two Rockstar games.

9. The underworld actually has a working economy that you can contribute too by buying and selling drugs, weapons and illegal cars in single player.

10. The protagonist can take drugs which will have some effects. But smoking weed on the streetwalk will lead to getting a one star wanted level.

11. Police cars will go after you if you're obviousely breaking the speed limit. Having high speed crashes will also damage your health.
Wanted levels:

1 star - police follow you on foot and try to make an arrest. No sirens, no car chases (unless you are speeding).
2 star - police will still attempt to make an arrest. If a weapon is drawn then the police will begin opening fire. Police will use stun guns if a weapon is not drawn.
3 star - Chases begin and the police don't care how they stop you, they just want to do it.
4 star - road traps, radio stations and much more hostile police.Even when you have evaded them, they will still search for 24 in-game hours for someone matching your description.
5 star - shoot to kill, arrest only if it's made very possible. Even when you have evaded them, they will still search for 48 in-game hours for someone matching your description. Few missions become unavailable if you are wanted.
6 star - military vehicles come after you. Even when you have evaded them, they will still search for 72 in-game hours for someone matching your description. Some missions become unavailable if you are wanted. ]]> Viper139 http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/blog.php?b=23814 http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/blog.php?b=22999 Thu, 17 Nov 2011 21:53:39 GMT Hey guys, I just got into the new dash beta, seems really good so far, I've noticed that its a lot faster to navagate.

Duke Nukem came out today in the UK and although it can be pretty fun its also somehow feels like a rush job: /

After playing for 1 hour I encountered these things

- The framerate is bad and sometimes freezes
- Multiple bugs including bosses locking up
- Long loading screens even when installed
- Poor multiplayer which takes forever to find a match
- Slow and choppy multiplayer









How does everyone else feel about the game? ]]> Viper139 http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/blog.php?b=21720 http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/blog.php?b=21464 Wed, 11 May 2011 16:01:58 GMT Took these pictures out of a british magazine, Looks like the others if you ask me lol.

1. Customers are rarely right about anything
2. Some customers will never understand self-checkouts
3. It’s all about who you know not what you know
4. Not complaining will leave you getting pushed around by supervisors
5. There are really people like the characters you see in The Office (British Version)
6.

Onlive have recently sent out invites to allow anyone to download the software and play the demos on the onlive service along with purchasing games. Although when I try to run the software this comes up.

I'm able to play games on the ping with about 30 Ping which is really low, I usally have one of the best connections on the server when playing counter strike or Call of duty.

I was expecting to pay around £1800-£2000 which even at that amount would be really difficult for me to pay, but once I got to the orthodontist he told me it would cost £3200 to have braces. This amount would mean a huge commitment over 2 years of my life. I'm only 18 and want to go to university next year.

My teeth are not extremely crooked but they defiantly need braces, should I plunge into debt for a couple of years with the reward or straight teeth or wait it out until I'm 24-25 or maybe never? ]]> Viper139 http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/blog.php?b=15975 http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/blog.php?b=15370 Fri, 02 Jul 2010 19:34:58 GMT Image: http://j.imagehost.org/t/0226/Top_played.jpg (http://j.imagehost.org/view/0226/Top_played)...

Inglorious Basterds

So I went to see the film today and it was pretty good, the film built up pretty well, the killing and action seemed realistic. When to my shock I see a member of the inglourious bastards. (A group of Jewish americans sent to france during WW2 to do some killing)

The only bad comment I have about the film is there was very little character development, it seemed like most of the members only had 1 or 2 lines in the whole film.


I love a scene near the ending of the film were wombat is doing some damage with a MP40. ]]> Viper139 http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/blog.php?b=10145
