The Game Dame™

So… I started the GTA4 disc with the idea that you’d be able to start a multiplayer challenge right away. Instead I got the intro movie (which was very well done and awesome BTW) but instead the game just started up automatically. You are Nikko. Niko? Whatever. You’ve got this cousin who is a total douchebag named Roman and he’s constantly demanding that you bail him out of trouble. The best part is that you don’t have to. A couple of times already I’ve chosen “titties” over him. Which is badass. So anyway, I got this invite through my Xbox Live email to join a multiplayer game. YAY! So I join, but the problem is – the guys playing are more interested in snagging a helicopter and flying around than they are at actually playing a GAME. That’s okay, I suppose, as long as you are ALSO interested in learning the multiplayer dynamics – which I got the impression they were NOT. “Hey! I can come pick you up in my helicopter and show you some crazy shit, yo!” is not impressive to me. If you are interested in ACTUALLY playing the game, PLEASE send me an invite, I’m down. But if you are only sending me an invite to “show the cool jumps you can make in this car” – don’t bother.
