The day has finally arrived. Today is April 29th, the release date of the greatest game EVER (well, not quite, but close): Grand Theft Auto IV. Yes, I own it. I'm taking a short break from its awesomeness to bring you this blog post, because--you know--I'm such an great guy. I've only played a couple hours so far, but as it stands, the game is pretty awesome. The voice acting is great, often hilarious, but definitely Hollywood quality. So far though, the best aspect of the game has been its physics engine. Once you've seen an obese policeman roll over the hood of a speeding Hummer, you'll know what I mean.
The only real problem I've encountered thus far has been getting used to driving. I was so used to the handling of the vehicles in San Andreas that the automobiles of Liberty City caught me off guard. They drift easily, but often farther than I would like, and don't seem to turn sharply enough otherwise. I'm sure it won't take too long to relearn the necessary skills, and luckily, it's still fun to drive even if I can't seem to avoid crashing through street lights, pedestrians and buildings. I can't wait to get farther in the game; blind-firing RPGs at random has become an obsession of mine, and if I don't get to try it out soon...well, video game violence will be the least of your worries.Speaking of video game violence (brilliant segue way, eh?), I can't wait to see what bullshit the media churns out about this game. Certainly it can't be as controversial as San Andreas' "Hot Coffee", but you never know with politicians these days. God forbid Hillary Clinton catches a glimpse of the game. I don't even want to think about the chaos that would ensue.It isn't my wish to spoil too much for those of you who will soon be playing the game yourself, but suffice it to say, GTA IV is seriously badass. Do yourself a favour and pick up this game up. Now.QUEENS ON THURSDAY! W00T!!!1!1!!11!

Check out Gamespot's video review of GTA IV if you'd like some more info. It's pretty good.
Um...hehe. Sorry about the two month delay. I never meant for that to happen. Honestly. I have no excuse, other than the fact that I couldn't think of anything to blog about. I still can't. But what the hell, I'll just wing it. *cringes at the use of pathetic cliche* So....what's up?Just kidding!Right. Well. Moving On...I want to make another video. What kind of video, you ask? Well, I'm not entirely sure, so maybe you can help me. I made a little poll over on the side of the blog that you can check out, but I'll include a more in-depth analysis of my thought processes right here.These are my ideas as of this moment:- A brand new concept involving several petty criminals and a siren-topped helmet wearing cop on a moped. You guessed it: Schnelly's our leading man.
- A news channel broadcast, complete with an anchor, weatherman, sports highlights, and on-location updates.- A new music video -- the victim: Vanilla Ice- Another completely random video with a theme of some kind (in the vein of "Child Abuse", if anyone remembers that short-lived effort.- A new episode of the Steven Summers Show, involving any number of ninjas, pirates, or robots.Leave comments and tell me what you think. I'd like to shoot this baby as soon as possible.I just finished watching Red Vs. Blue. It's kind of depressing to think that the adventures of Church, Tucker, Caboose, Tex, Grif, Simmons, Donut, and Sarge are actually over. The ending didn't really satisfy me, either; I think they could have gotten a few more seasons out of it, at the very least. But what the hell, they only said it was the end of the Blood Gulch Chronicles, right? So there could still be more, right? Right? It's such a funny show, though. I often find myself cracking up, even when watching episodes I've seen before. And have you seen the DVD boxed set? It looks fran-tastically badass. I want it.Damnit, it's just not fair. Until next time, I guess.-Funkin' out
