No, no, no. I was just messing with MadB and Bott. They've both been around a while and have an established track record for being semi-grumpy. It was a joke, and I might should have made that more clear. It's all good. The forum's all about video games and discussing them. There are bound to be differing opinions about games and that's fine.
I know what Old School means... at times it's frustrating to read someone slamming something that you might thing people should give a chance, whether it's a game, an idea, or a view, or whatever. There is a pack mentality sometimes and if the ball rolls in the wrong direction, a seemingly unfair view of whatever it is can be "promoted". But in the end you have to just let people figure it out for themselves. Most people who frequent the site are familiar enough with the other members to know which members they are likely to fall in line with opinion-wise anyway.
I can't explain well why I think SR is different from GTA, but the last one was a lot more fun for me than any GTA game. We'll see if that trend continues. Like Nukle, I'm typically bored to death a few hours in to a game like GTA4 or Mass Effect (both are current problems for me). On the other hand, I completely finished Crackdown and Saint's Row. I think I like the lighter, less believable side of things.
