h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

RPG stands for Role-PlayING Game, not Role-PlayER Game.

Otherwise an ace Entry

I noticed that myself today, but that was added by the sub-ed, not me. I just want to make that clear.

Hi GB. I think it's a solid article, but you could have mentioned the use of suggestive signs and billboards around the city, like the one across from the hospital selling ring cream for stubborn rings.

Well this is a family site Mr C *says the guy who's currently smoking pot on the Pythonists threads*

I love the radio in San Andreas, especially KRose. I'm always singing along to those country-western songs as I zip through the cornfields near Wetstone.

I'm more of a Radio X/KDST fan myself.

My only complaint is that you don't get the radio on police bikes.

I liked all the radio stations, but especially the call-in talk radio, where one mother is complaining about violence in computer games ...

Yeah, what violence?

I think it's the violence that led to Tony Banks claiming that vidoe games are more morally degrading than child pornography

Maybe he was talking about a specific video game that has child pornography in it.

Sigh I apologise for the small error and eventually will get it changed You have to admit though, it's a long entry and if that was the big thing then it can't be all that bad.

Anyway I take full responsibility for putting er instead of ing.

Ah, yes, the infamous Tween Tickler child pornography game; fun for the whole family!

Don't worry Kat, you did a great job.

*mutters something about incompetence*

There is already much speculation about the content of the next game. Each game, they hint at the location of the next, such as a billboard in GTA III that said "See You In Miami" adjacent from a Rockstar Games billboard. In San Andreas, it's a bit harder as the logo is used almost everywhere. I'm hoping for the New York/New Jersey/Pennsylvania area, somewhere North where it could snow and skis could be used.

I have a hunch that it will be based in Carser city. They mentioned it on the radio in GTA3 and there was a (false) internet rumour that if you got 100% in the game then you'd be transported to Carser City. If you listen to the radio in San Andreas then you hear them talking about it again in a radio ad asking people to visit.

That could be it, but Carsen City is a real city in Nevada and it could merely be a parody of that. Anyway, my friend got a %100 game and said that nothing like that happened.

I got a 100% game in all three and all I got was a lousy t-shirt.

That was for Vice City.
