Grand Thumb Auto 4: Rise of the Thumb

[ysbreker]

I expect at least one more thumb off!

Only one more?! Dude, as far as I'm concerned, Grand Thumb Auto is now a permanent Wednesday fixture until further notice! Look forward to running you over seeing you there.

Highlight for me this week was steaming along in a big, gelatenous sedan with Infovore--him driving, whilst I leant out of the window and absently fired into the occasional on-comer. However, whilst travelling at high speed we encountered some sudden traffic. Infovore took evasive action, clipped a safety barrier at the side of the road and promptly rolled the car... with me still hanging out of the window.

It's a good job GTA IV doesn't have any serious gore in it, because that would've looked nasty. What's more - just to add insult to (instantly fatal) injury, the car landed back on its wheels, allowing Infovore to race off! The spawny bleeder.

The other highlight (for me) was getting into a game of car sumo with toblix on the dockside. And managing to shunt him into the water, mwah hah hah ha! Coupled with Miffy and Nachimir taking pot-shots at each other with RPGs, this was I think the most hectic session yet.

Oh! And we tried out "Turf War" which I've never played before; very cool game mode, in which either team must capture and hold key spots around the map. Each spot ticks money, when captured, and the team with the most money at the end of the game is the winner. We had some frantic back-and-forth battles, plus it was very cool to all converge on an enemy territory and flush them out.

It was another ace night, really.

Well, the only problem is that of the next three Wednesdays, one is Christmas Eve and the other is New Year's Eve.

...oh minge.

Right, Thursdays it is then!

Actually, how would people feel about bumping Grand Thumb Auto up to Tuesdays until we're into the new year?

I'm up for it. Should we have one of those polls again, to decide which weekdays are best for the most people?

Okay, let's see...

edit: Okay, let's discuss the day here.
