If it has yet not occured to our readers, that procrastination is something which I apreciate as an artform, best experiences as a long bender; spending days doing all i can, but what i should. Then let me say it definitively now: My name is Sean, I am a procrastinator. For that Im not really gonna apologise, cause yeah.. i dont care. but well thats the reason why its been forever and a day since my last GTA post.

Since then and now I’ve basically been spending every waking moment playing the game, bar the last week or so when I’ve been desperately forcing myself to do *other things* after constantly getting msn messages and nudges with people (yes, you sarah) moaning about me STILL PLAYING GTA4.

Thats pretty much the best endorsement your gonna get from me. Playing the game to the detriment of all social life. its a humbling thought - i suspect.

Apart from the plot of the game, which in fairness i think is only *0K*. its neither bad, nor good, its enough. The online game play however is superb. For a game which only went online at the begging of its fans, and despite the fact that its such a linear single player game, its quite a feat. Theres just so many options, deathmatch, carjack, turfwar etc each with a teambased option to (team deathmatch for example); theres definitely enough to keep you occupied for ages. It certainly kept me from stuff OUTSIDE.

I thought i wouldnt be too thrilled about the game, its just another sprawling do-whatever-you-want fest, only prettier; which I would be enclined to believe had i not had that oportunity to play the game online. Its a saving grace of the game. Sure the single player is good, but nothing spectactular.

Writing this kind of article seems futile anyways, because if you havent already picked up the game (which you should!) its doubtful you will. but there you have it. I say buy the damn thing. its awesome. in parts. yeah… 7/10 says me.
