It's just as tongue-in-cheek now, but it's less cartoony, less grotesque. I think that's simply because of graphical advancements. Seriously though, go listen to Blaine County Radio or the Public Radio station in the south- that shit is just as funny and cartoony as GTA3/ VC/ San Andreas. I don't think the content has…

I would agree with you if it weren't for satire being as deep as the subject, you know?

Posted this at the OP, too:

As far as the Houser's are concerned, GTA is America. They say they might make games set elsewhere- but they won't be GTA's. GTA games will always be set in the USA, that's what their remit is. To satirise that culture. It'll never happen my friend. Just enjoy games like Sleeping Dogs for what they are.

I felt disgusted and harrowed by his behaviour- but absolutely loved it.

"Should've at least had servers up when the game was launched to clarify, and not all buggy at that."

Yeah that's a good shout- though arguably OG Loc is part of the San Andreas location's universe, rather than the plot? Though I guess he does feature pretty heavily in GTA: SA's missions, which would make him a "character."

If you're talking about her biological sex, then yes she is male sex.

That's cool man, I'm glad you used your brain. I'm getting tired of all the twats shouting about shit they don't understand and aren't even trying to empathise about. Indeed, it's worth reading Judith Butler's stuff, it's heavy, but if you really get into some of the concepts, it destroys your concept of how society…

Yeah, good call, if you look at profit margin instead of gross profit, any of the "big AAA" titles really suck. It's indie titles and mobile apps that do the profit-margin legwork.

Good call- unfortunately I haven't played Chinatown Wars! Lost the charger for my DS :/ should probably get on that!

Yeah I noticed the Red Dead assets in the movies and TV adverts! There's that hilarious TV song they do, too, using the same stuff.

Um, haha. You proved my point for me.

Hmm, surely that only suggests the presence of places from the previous games though? Not the stories? I.e. the pictures of San Andreas are pictures of hypothetically the same place.

I can't see what you're referring to, unless your referring to conceding to Amheim's comment? He put it well. If he did show you what the whole point is, I'm glad. I can't see any comments by you suggesting you've read any material about this or understand it.

You using the word "pretend" is literally as offensive as calling a black person a nigger or a slave to his face. A trans person isn't pretending. If you thought for several years about your personality, and felt that you were more woman than man in your mind, even if your body is a male body; you aren't pretending.

Yes it is.

You are repeatedly, and ignorantly, misunderstanding that gender identity (i.e. your mind, brain, personality) and biological sex are not the same thing.

You, uh, don't understand. Biological sex can be male or whatever. Gender is something inside your head. If you feel female, you can call yourself female, and you are female. If you feel male, you can call yourself male, and you are male.
