    I love the level of detail trying to explain what's going on, the status updates, and the honesty. It's like a complete 180 from, say, Rockstar where you have no idea if they're even alive.

    It baffles me that a MP only game has such crippling issues. I mean, what did their QC department check the entire time?

    From everything that's been said, as soon as all the network issues are given the all-clear, I'm picking this one up.


    It's a shame to see technical issues mar a game that is, by most accounts, pretty entertaining.

    @The Forgetful Brain:

    It's a shame that this wasn't worked out during their long beta testing. People had connection problems since day 1, and it's not like this is something you should be leaving til the last minute.

    Boston native here. If you don't drive, it's a great city with a ton of culture attached to it. A thriving geek community and a huge non-college sports town (which is a tad ironic given the colleges we have here)


    Just.. don't drive

    @huginn: what is wrong with the roads in Boston??? i've never been- but you're painting a very ominous picture in my mind- one of a city in which the roads are littered with ghosts, landmines, red and/or blue spiked shells, women drivers, kids on rollerskates darting in and out of traffic, bottomless pits, the entire cast of "the Road Warrior", etc. etc.

    Rockstar could have designed a city road system better then what is there now. And there system was intended to be of used for wild car chases.

    If they're recruiting, we should get Harvey Milk to help them.

    @qamulek: it's not even a job. it's a jorb, silly. it's better than a career and a job combined! it''s similar to what happened to ensemble. jorbs are why developers "arent" being fired from microsoft.
