I do, quite often actually, its just a break from constantly racing on Forza or blowing people up on MW3, its nice to go on that, and have a bit of fun, if anyone ever goes online on Xbox, add me TomN94 smile

I've been playing Episodes of Liberty City, since I bought it quite recently.

If you find it fun for general messing around I would reccomend giving Saints Row 3 a go. Personally I found it much more fun and a better sound track for exploring and mucking around etc.

I might play through it again before V is released late this year or early next.

not sure if it still works bit you can pickup sr3 for 11.99, and enter voucher code "pcgamer" and it will discount 20 quid

I had SR3 for...a week, I really couldn't get into it, I loved SR2, no denying it, but SR3 dissapointed me massively.

Did another company buy APB and re-release it or something?

I remember reading about APB in a mag about 7 years ago or more and thinking what an awesome game it sounds like.

I pre-ordered it when you could and got early Beta access and it was a pile of poo, the mechanics of the game just didn't work properly and it just felt like a completely unfinished game.

Cancelled my order and like a month after release or something the game flopped and they closed it all down and didn't refund anybody?!

Still fire up TBOGT now and again, mostly just doing the drug wars and BASE jumping for giggles.

Like a proper geek I went back on it last night to check out the fayre ground ride background and it is indeed almost an exact copy of the last few frames of the GTA V trailer...

Enjoying Saints Row the 3rd, it's a cheap copy of a GTA game or a GTA game with the polish turned right down and the fun factor turned right up - depending on your point of view. It's a good laugh, but the vehicle phyisics and NPC A.I. isn't in the same league as GTA IV.

Have been playing it constantly after getting it off ebay last week. Only completed 40% of it. Great game.

Its now free to play, micro transaction based. Gamersfirst bought it, they also run a load of other free games.

Saints row 2 is definately a game I would recommend, must say Saints Row 3 was a big let down, nowhere near as good as sr2, such a shame.

But don't get the PC version, it is broken.

Still play GTA 4 for the online racing quite a bit, usually no problem getting full lobbies. The racing is CRAZY and pretty clean near the front. Just gotta avoid the standard 2-3 people trying to crash everyone but it's part of GTA I suppose! Best street racing game i've ever played, plus it comes with a free GTA game biggrin

I've not played GTA for a long time now, too long in fact. I was waiting for V to be released but that's a fair way off yet. I think I may have to have another play through while I'm waiting hehe

The Lost and Damned and TBOGTs missions were too easy (although I did struggle a bit on the last mission of TLAD) and the stories too short imho, even for add ons.

the new cars in TBOGT were worth it though.

I do! Do games have 'sell-by' dates these days? I still sometimes play the original Tomb Raider!
