Even as hyped as I was, I’m still putting more time into Grand Theft Auto IV than I thought I would. Since getting it Monday night, I’ve spent the majority of my time playing. It’s entirely possible that I’ve played GTA more than I’ve slept, as I came home Tueday morning and played for 5 hours, slept for 4 hours, and then got up and played the majority of Tuesday day. Now it’s Wednesday and I’ve been playing off and on all day, stopping occasionally to do work.

I don’t want to discuss in detail how much I like the game, because you only need to casually glance around the internet to see that the game is getting 10s across the board. I agree with these scores. After putting I’m sure a good 10-15 hours into it since early Tuesday morning, I’m positive that is this is the best game I’ve ever played and just an amazing experience overall.

So this week’s D-Ville installment ends the current storyline, which may bring about a sigh of relief in some people. Even after a year, we’re still trying to get the hang of things, such as how long to run a storyline before it’s run into the ground. It’s a tricky situation and we appreciate the feedback we’ve received from the forum folk.

And with that, I’m off to jack some cars. Not in the real world, of course! I don’t have my license.
