GTA: Vice City Sells 8.5 Million Copies in 3 Months
Gus writes "Take Two Interactive Software reports that Grand Theft Auto: Vice City has sold more than 8.5 million copies in the first three months since its late-October launch. The good news is Rockstar Games has 11 titles in the works. The bad news is the chances of the next GTA making it out this year are pretty slim." Also, there's still a couple people waiting on Duke Nukem Forever, and their patience is wearing thin.
do you think this has to do anything with the high rate of unemployment, and discontent among the people?
Consensus is good, but informed dictatorship is better
Another 8.5 million were stolen at gunpoint from stores nationwide.

If I never meet a woman who won't let me say, "it's just fun to kill hookers with a chainsaw"....well, then, I'll have more money for games!!!!
Remember back when Super Mario Brothers was popular? You know, when all Amercians aspired to be overweight, Italian plumbers with a 'shroom problem?
Or perhaps they are just video games after all.
Yeah, thought so.

Now as all the married and almost married men out here know, that if i was to say what i was thinking, it would have been a very lonely night for me and my PC! :-)
Yeah, but you would have to got to blow away some hookers!
My girlfriend cackles like a banshee and says things like "Come here and die, bitch!" when she runs over people in Carmageddon. I'm almost afraid what's going to happen if I hand her GTA3.

playing with boobies every night is a hell of a lot better than looking at ones with 16 million colors

Dude, they're only *pixels.* Lighten up.
Also, at the end of a game of chess no one has *really* commited Regicide. It's just symbolic.
Don't get me going about Chutes and Ladders though. That game is disgusting. Oh, the humanity!

I get to play with boobies every night (no, not my own) and GTA:VC - sometimes at the same time - neener neener neener to infinity.

Plus 1.
Robots are everywhere, and they eat old people's medicine for fuel.
So, who is it that loves violence, terror, and rape so much again?
Yeah, thought so."
Nice stereotype. I can play too.
Rockstar's next game: Le Reddition (The Surrender)
Welcome to France.
From the country who rolls over like a flock of sheep, snootiness and horrible hygiene comes a story of one man's rise to the top of cowardice. Le Reddition is a huge urban sprawl ranging from that half-finished skyscraper know as the Eiffel Tower to Marseilles, and is the most varied, complete and alive digital city ever created.
I like big butts and I cannot lie.
Aren't there other ways for people to relax and have fun. I personally would rather make love to my wife a couple times than sit around all Saturday afternoon staring at the TV screen. Maybe that's just me though.
Now you're asking which video game you should buy.
"Do you really want to be marrying this chick?"
Yeah, because if he's posting on Slashdot, you know he can choose from any woman he wants!
"Dude, don't take a general view of the entire population to form a balanced opinion. Instead come and look at my heavily biassed samples in an unusual situation and draw wild conclusions."
I realized a while back that I played VC WAY too much. When I drive down the street I just keep looking for a bike and I have to force myself not to ram the dude and steal his bike. Another funny thing. The other day me and a friend were talking about games in my garden. He was going on about some RPG and I just said," No thanks, I'd rather be shooting people and stealing cars" just as the neighbors walked past. I got some strange looks...
"I used to have that really cool,funny sig
From a review of the cleaned-up version:
I just heard some sad news on talk radio - famous hero and womenizer Duke Nukem was found dead in his Los Angeles, CA penthouse this morning. There were no more official details, but the rumor has it that he was surrounded by radioactive green babes and was looking good even dead. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss him - even if you didn't enjoy his exploits, there's no denying his contributions to popular culture. Truly an American icon. May his soul respawn in a nice, seedy place where hotels can be rented by the hour.
