Get it, it's awesome! I really should be doing some work but I can't - I'm addicted lol!

shakes head in disbelief

"oh dear oh dear oh dear"

thinks about possibly giving Spider Solitaire another try...

Man, GTA IV is so much fun! I normally get bored with games after an hour or 2 but I find I am playing GTA IV for 4-6 hours straight without even noticing and have to drag myself away. Good job I am on leave at the moment....shame my uni work isn't getting done though lol!

How can you get away with spending that much time on it? Doesn't Mrs. Phil mind? I can just about get away with a round of golf once in a while but 4-6 hours on the computer! :eek:

It's easy...while she's at work, I play! I'm on leave at the moment but SWMBO is working nights (bless her). This means I can play while she's sleeping (8am - 3pm) and while she's at work (8pm til I go to bed). I obviously use headphones whilst she's sleeping or she really wouldn't be happy lol!

You're obviously blessed! Even if I'm on my own at home I still have chores (I'm largely joking); like this morning we have been to a whole load of shops and I've just cut the grass so I can have some "quality time" with my Sky Sports and Liverpool vs Man City.

Man, I'd love to check it out. I'm dying to see how my favorite neighborhoods turned out in Liberty City. Blowing stuff up sounds fun too. I'll have to live with screenshots though. No plans to buy an Xbox or PS3 any time soon

I was in NY City just before christmas and GTA IV is spookily authentic! Broker bridge is exactly like Brooklyn bridge...even down to the stairwells in the pillars :cool:. Just been up the empire state building (in the game) for beautiful night time views accross the city. Thankfully, I didn't have to wait like I did last time lol!

It is interesting to see which aspects of virtual worlds are interesting to folks. Like who would have imagined that there would be a market for a train simulator? For me, it's the opportunity to go round world-famous golf courses without the waiting lists and the travel. I played Augusta National the other night while watching the Masters on the TV!
