Take Two made dumber than dumb choices in 09

I don't wanna drag this out because I love their work.  GTA (Italian air kiss) Max Payne (DELISSIOSO!)

Yet... for some flippen reason they are confused as to why their recent efforts to milk what they thought was a cash cow Fell Flat

I'll tell you why...  GTA IV... great game... Replay Value... UGH... I dunno... but its really low.  I beat it twice (2nd time was purely to if I could get the gold for beating it under 30 hours) And I haven't gone back and not even two DLC packs (Which are not even available to me) would get me to go back to a game I played in 2000

The statement goes on to say that between 2010's Red Dead Redemption, Max Payne 3 and BIO-FREAKEN-SHOCK 2... They don't think they can turn a profit.  Ok look.. Your development costs are obviously WAY WAY too high.  Maybe Max Payne wont destroy sales records... But Bioshock 2 should at least help you break even.   I'm going to purchase 2 of the 3 titles mentioned and I'm sure one of them (Max Payne 3) will be OFF THE HOOK!

Back to GTA 4 for a minute.... See.. You thought because you did like 8 million units worldwide that you had a good game on your hands. And you did.  One which ... from beginning to end was an enjoyable ride.  HOWEVER! -- It was just a GTA 3 expansion in HD.  Anything that you added.... was negated by what you removed. (RPG elements from San Andreas, The sheer map size, the girlfriend mechanics, and THE HUMOR) --- So The Lost and The Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony or whatever it is called may have been worthy ... .They just aren't what GTA players worldwide want to play.   Here... I'll help you... GTA: Cape Disappointment (Which may not work because its a real place)  But go with me... Make it like you're making San Andreas 2...  That way it will be awesome!~! and if nobody plays it, you can say it was in the title and you'll know that gamers are done with GTA for now.

Finally... I take great exception to them acting like they give a shit about GTA on the PSP... That's bullshit and they know it.  ANY and EVERY GTA-PSP owner will tell you.... 1) Fuck Chinatown Wars in the ASS with chalk dust.  2) Where the hell is San Andreas Stories?  -- You wanna turn a profit on a portable system... SAN ANDREAS STORIES!!

You don't get to port a shitty half assed game (by PSP standards) and cry about your failure.

Have a Coke and a smile and shut the fuck up!
