2 notes. one i thought black ops had a very well done campaign but

it was too easy to know dragovich was not real. At about the halfway point in the campaign I had a good idea that he was just an illusion and had died on the first mission.

second i started at gta 3 aswell and put a lot of hours into each game thereafter. To me San Andreas was the best because there were endless things to do after the story. with Vice being the best atmosphere and 4 having the best presentation.

Agreed on all ends. Vice just captured everything so perfectly. To me, BOGT was this gen's San Andreas. Maybe, you'll be able to fly between LA & Miami this time around

BF3 for PC is unreal. I can't even get a consistent 30 FPS on high with no AA and I have a 5770 (about a two year old card, but still plays every other game out there just fine). But then again, I didn't bother to overclock the card lately, maybe I'll do that just for this game. This game makes Crysis look mediocre.

I really hope it's in California again. I loved being able to head up to the "back country" to explore for Big Foot. I hope they incorporate the Red Dead Redemption "hunting" idea if they have a backwoods again.

 

Rumor so far is it's an LA/Hollywood setting.

Hit a game tying jumper with D-Rose today in my franchise mode. Rose scored 5 points in about 20 seconds. I miss real basketball...

 

Working on my all time teams, here's what I've got done.

 

 

Chicago Bulls - Rose and Jordan can just go crazy together, especially with all the D surrounding them.

 

C - Artis Gilmore, Joakim Noah, Tom Boerwinkle

PF - Bob Love, Horace Grant, Toni Kukoc

SF - Scottie Pippen, Chet Walker, Luol Deng

SG - Michael Jordan, Jerry Sloan, Ben Gordon

PG - Derrick Rose, Norm Van Lier, Kirk Hinrich

 

 

Utah Jazz - Ball movement is great between Stockton and Maravich. Malone and Eaton clean the glass. Deron, Hornacek, and Boozer off the bench is crazy.

 

C - Mark Eaton, Thurl Bailey, Mehmet Okur

PF - Karl Malone, Carlos Boozer, Paul Milsap

SF - Adrian Dantley, Andrei Kirilenko, Byron Russell

SG - Pete Maravich, Jeff Hornacek, Darrell Griffith

PG - John Stockton, Deron Williams, Rickey Green

 

Los Angeles Lakers - The Lakers went with a lineup of Magic, Kobe, Mikan, Kareem, Shaq on me. This team can get massive or small.

 

C - Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, George Mikan, Rudy LaRusso

PF - Shaquille O'Neal, Lamar Odom, AC Green

SF - Elgin Baylor, James Worthy, Michael Cooper

SG - Kobe Bryant, Jerry West, Gail Goodrich

PG - Magic Johnson, Byron Scott, Derek Fisher

 

Boston Celtics - Larry Bird makes this team run. Parish-Russell is frightening when the Celtics run it out.

 

C - Bill Russell, Dave Cowens, Robert Parish

PF - Kevin McHale, Tom Heinsohn

SF - Larry Bird, Paul Pierce, Cedric Maxwell

SG - Sam Jones, John Havlicek, Reggie Lewis, Danny Ainge

PG - Bob Cousy, JoJo White, Dennis Johnson

 

Gonna work on Knicks and Cavaliers next, as I don't have to make too many players for them.

I did a fantasy draft.

 

PG Rose

SG Mayo

SF Nick Young

PF Love

C Ibaka

 

Affalo, Gallinari, Barea, Morrow, Hawes, Asik, and Daye on the bench. I make it rain 3s all day.

Jones starting over Havlicek? That's a little odd...

 

Knicks should be a fun one with Frazier, Reed, Ewing, Monroe, King, DeBusschere, ect.

 

I'd do Philly personally. Definitely have AI, Erving, Hal Greer and Billy Cunningham, and depending on how you are defining it, they could legitimately claim Wilt, Moses and Barkley.

The computer prefers Hondo playing behind Jones. I had Hondo in the starting five, but it makes sense as he is the perfect sixth man. He and Jones pretty much split time evenly.

 

Knicks are mostly done and are hellishly fun.

 

Philly and San Antonio follow the Knicks/Cavs (making all the teams), here's their rosters...

 

 

San Antonio Spurs - Not exactly world breakers. Duncan, Robinson, and Gervin carry this team.

 

C - David Robinson, Billy Paultz

PF - Tim Duncan, Larry Kenon, Willie Anderson

SF - Sean Elliot, Manu Ginobli, Mike Mitchell, Bruce Bowen

SG - George Gervin, Alvin Robertson, James Silas

PG - Avery Johnson, Tony Parker, Johnny Moore

 

Philadelphia 76ers - Don't get Moses (Rockets) or Wilt (Warriors), but keep Barkley (his Philly numbers/years out rule Phoenix, who still have Nash/Johnson to power the very dynamic Suns)

 

C - Dolph Schayes, Billy Cunningham, Darryl Dawkins

PF - Charles Barkley, Lucious Jackson

SF - Julius Erving, Bobby Jones, Doug Collins

SG - Allen Iverson, Hal Greer, Andre Iguodala, Hersey Hawkins

PG - Mo Cheeks, Andrew Toney, Paul Seymour

 

AI, Erving, and Chuck is very, very nasty.

Uncharted 3 is like Uncharted 2 but just has that extra shine.

I just watched the whole game chapter by chapter on Youtube.

 

Pretty much the cheating way of doing it, but at least I can see how the story is etc. even if I'm never going to play it.

 

I was a bit disappointed in the ending though, in terms of what they did with the main villian.

GTA V trailer comes out in like 9 hours. Should find out a location and maybe a main character.

Anyone want to predict it's not going to be set in Los Angeles?

 

I've heard it could feature multiple main characters.

 

I'd quite like em to do a different city though (something like New Orleans or even Chicago would be good).

Chicago would be awesome, but according to a "leak", it is going to be in Los Santos, but will be a smaller map than San Andreas. And likely a return of CJ, or a similar gang character.

GTAV definitely set in California/Hollywood, probably some overlap with Los Santos but hard to tell from the trailer. The main character appears to be a middle-aged white guy. A theory I heard on IGN is that it's Tommy Vercetti.

 

Edit- beat me to it

Just saw the trailer.

 

Tommy is back!

 

Set in SoCal, and looks like Tommy and CJ are the characters.

Absolutely nothing on the trailer confirms that's Tommy. Just pointing out that's a theory.

 

 

I'd love if it is though, one of my favorite locations with my favorite character.
