"I've got a gun! I've got a mother-flippin' gun!" - Moss, The IT Crowd

I've played various TR & RE games (not all though), and from what I've seen they don't hold a candle to the quality of characterization in GTA.

An example - and yes I'm avoiding spoilers, I swear - I've driven one particular guy around some 10 or more times at various points in the game and each time the characters have had lengthy and different conversations. It all feels very real.

The fact they fit all this on a standard DVD is a masterpiece of coding.

They probably used black magic.

Y'know, I hadn't planned on having to bring my husband back as a zombie for a long time. I don't have any of the supplies on hand.

Who knows - the game might take care of that for you.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Who knows - the game might take care of that for you.

"Continue?"

Pffft. I don't believe in trusting the reanimation of the dead to game developers I don't know.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

You know...they did just continue my job...

...and then Aims could play Guitar Hero, so I could justify it to her that way...

...STOP! STOP STOP STOP!

I will not buy a console.

I will buy beer, instead, as tradition demands.
