OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

I just flew a helicopter to a night club floating in the sky, killed some people, and then took off in a plane on a mini-runway at the back.  This game kicks ass.

Last night, I ejected just before I flew a plane into the side of a missile that was being launched into orbit (Why?  Not sure.  Doesn't matter.).  The ensuing explosion was incredible.  Also, slingshotting yourself around with the parachute + grappling hook shouldn't be as fun as it is.

I think I read about that mission.  This game is so over-the-top, it's incredible.  The only problem I'm having so far is that the controls for the vehicles can be really messed up at times, particularly when driving.  If you go off-road at all, those things have absolutely no control.  Also, it would be nice if the planes could control pitch/yaw/roll with both analogs instead of just the left one.  And I agree about the parachute/grappling hook.  It makes it a whole lot easier to travel around when you need to get somewhere without roads.

Yes, the planes are a nightmare to fly so far.  That's why I had to ram it into the missile instead of just shooting it down.

I'd definitely prefer ramming it in there. You fucks are going to make me go buy this. I hate you both

There's a forkjoke to be made there, but I'm not going to be the one to make it.

This game sounds awesome. Is there a port for the Sega Genesis?

I decided to fly a plane as high as you can go in this game and then jump out.  The first time I did it, I just free fell straight down and it took 3 minutes to hit the ground.  This time I pulled the parachute right away.  I've been falling for 13 minutes and I'm just now about to pass the clouds...

ETA: It takes 47 minutes to parachute from the highest point in the sky down into the water.  That was a fun.

I hope this game has a bonus mission where you wait in line at the DMV.

This game is so awesome.  It gets better and better as you improve with the grappling hook.

DPD.  If you haven't yet done so, attach an enemy to one of those barrels that you can shoot and make fly away.  Hilarity will ensue.

My favorite game reviewer takes a stab at this game, and he seemed to be happy with it, which is uncommon.

You have a favorite game reviewer? I don't want to sound like a common TDubbs, but...

To be fair to Yeti this guy makes a game review just as interesting as such a thing could possibly be. He's one of a kind.

Did you watch the video at all? (I'm not expecting you to, just curious) He's pretty funny. Very cynical. Even if he completely bashes a game I like, I enjoy the review because it's damn funny. /loser

I didn't watch it. But only because I don't have sound on the computer I'm using right now.
