Seems to be the darling of the games websites at the moment. I've never been much of a fan of GTAs sandbox style though, I always end up losing interest in the missions and just dick about.
Driving in my car, smoking my cigar, the only time i'm happys when i'm playing my guitar!

i have not gamed- or been a gamer in years.   but i recently got a new laptop, and it plays mass effect 2 in glorious detail... and i am happy.   i have been playing bioshock2 (very good), assassins creeed 1&2 (nice but not engaging) and mass effect 2 is the first game to really engage me since i was a teenager

I only play online with one friend. We use it more as a way to catch up because he lives far away. So when his wife and kids have an early one, he normally gets in touch.
Otherwise I'm not much of a gamer, apart from the occasional game that comes along and grabs me.
Oblivion and Modern Warfare 2 have been the only games I've got in to in the last few years - I prefer to play music instead.

Red Dead seems good on first impressions, except online is $%&#ed with early teething problems

Wish it was out on PC, I don't have a 360 or PS3 :(

Alan Wake seems to have a PC release though so I'll be picking that up as it looks awesome :)

Oh, and Ted n Leo, doing GTA missions is way more fun than just messing around going on killing sprees. Me and my housemate have got a bit addicted to GTA recently - completed San Andreas twice in the past month as well as Libery City Stories :lol: :oops: Vice City is next on the agenda (yes we're  sad and only have a PS2)!

For me Vice City was the best out of all the GTA stuff.
That was a game I spent a lot of time

I thought both Bioshock 2 and Masseffect 2 were phenomenal. Single player so far in RDR is great fun!

I don't see how a $60 game could possibly affect your decision to spend hundreds if not thousands on a guitar.

That being said, I'll wait to.........borrow it.....from the internet  :P
