More GTA Stuff

(I know, not the most creative title, but more headlines like "Grand Theft News" and such don't seem so appealing either.)

So I was watching the CNN Daily Podcast for April 30th, and one of the stories was a man who maced two store clerks and robbed a Gamestop, stealing the almighty Grand Theft Auto IV in the process. Images of the Gamestop were shown, and I thought to myself, "damn, that looks a lot like Mira Mesa," and, you guessed it, it was! Hardcore indeed.

In other GTA related news, a man was stabbed while waiting in line for GTA. Now in video game related violence I usually take the opposing side of the media, generally saying that their claims are foolish and that no, the man did not do said crime because of a video game, but I'm going to have to make an exception on this one.

I've only played a bit of the game so far because I have finals this week and next, but damn, I must say that this shit is damn entertaining. Only a little more than a week to go...must stay focused...
