Liberty City Gripped By Gun Crime

Liberty City Gripped By Gun Crime
Written Thursday, September 17, 2009 by Dan Webb

In the latest promotional video for Episodes From Liberty City, Rockstar today focuses on gun crime in the game's living, breathing city.

Not only will you see a ton of new weapons, including The Buzzard - an illegal attack helicopter, sticky bombs, advanced sniper rifles, automatic shotguns and exploding bullets; but you'll also see our good friend Luis Lopez train surfing, amongst other things.

If you have time, watch the video for a second time and just read the story headlines that scroll past on the ticker at the bottom, some are more than amusing. Our favourites... "Shooting blanks: how computer games make you sterile," "Argentina not crying, just chopping some onions," and "Ginger man 55 times more likely to be victim of hate crime." Classic Rockstar right there.

"Argentina not crying, just chopping some onions"

HAHAHAHA! Great stuff Rockstar. Of course no one is crying over Madonna. They might cry when they see her nasty old body in those skimpy outfits she wears, but that's crying because of her, not for her. :p

I've been waiting for the stickybomb. (aka satchel charge from GTA SA)


Those bombs will make blowing myself off building and stuff so much more easier than throwing a grenade.

Haha gotta love how Rockstar go that extra step of making game ads that fit with the game universe.

Definitely looking forward to October 29.

Hmm thats a thought, I wonder how the achievements will work, if the achievements for disc version can add to the achievements for GTA4 or if Episodes will be treated as a totally seperate game

#41 I think they're doing that with San Andreas Stories

Comment #46 by Santaslave
Sunday, September 20, 2009 @ 07:57:18 AM

Oh and #34 I think tBoGT is going to be 250 and TLAD is also 250, so that makes 500. I have no clue how they would add another 500 to that to make it 1000

Poll

Downloadable content - achievements or no achievements - will you buy it with or without them?
If the content is good, or for a game I love, I'll buy it regardless of whether chievos are included
I'll still buy and play the downloadable content, but achievements would be nice.
Who the hell cares!?
No achievements, no sale ... and that goes for any game ... whether you're GTA or Halo!
Just stop with the DLC achievements full stop ... you're ruining my completion percentage dammit!
