Rockstar warned players that there would be problems. Anyone with previous online experience would know there would be problems.
Not making excuses for Rockstar and although I can fully understand the frustration it's causing, there's not really much point moaning about it :D
I have completed GTA V. I've yet to commit murder, I've yet to drive down the side walk and count the pedestrians bouncing off my car, I've yet to hire a prostitute before trapping her in my car and launching it off a bridge.
Oh, and I haven't tortured or killed any small animals (or sharks) either.
Sorry IDA.
This just got announced in case you missed it. They estimate a 7am ET launch:

Although I would hazard a guess that 99% of people that are screaming false bans have actually purchased gil, the shear amount of bans is going to mean at least a few people are innocent.
There are posts on the forums with people that have extremely valid evidence, such as screenshots of past sales and such, so I'm not certain SE made the right move here.
1 gil? You know you can choose how much you sell stuff for right? Lol I wasn't talking about selling to the vendors :D
Honestly, it's not all that hard. I've easily made 300-400k and that's just from selling the scraps I get from mob kills when questing.
I farmed for 90 minutes yesterday and easily cleared 150k selling the drops, that was from level 18 mobs.
Farming the level 50ish mobs, crafting etc, I can see how it could be done.
Love Angry Joe :D
"Yes EA sent me a review copy and therefore my head says I should try and do justice to EA Sports and try and stay in their good books"
Personally my head would say I need to be honest with my readers...lol
I've seen huge websites push out complete drivel. I've seen tiny websites publish amazing content.
The real problem with game journalism today is the influence the big names have. Why would you visit Random Joe's page when IGN etc all have games 2 weeks before release, get the PR news before anyone else, and have a bigger budget?
I would guess that a new website would need 5-10 years of constant content before they're able to get anywhere. Unl...
Quite enjoyed the video but don't really get his point...
The GTA V cast are not your typically unjustifiable villains. Michael is a family man and there's plenty of missions that demonstrate his passion for his family.
Franklin, on many occasions, is seen helping out his friends, risking his life for others etc.
Trevor...Well despite the fact he's a lunatic, even he saves Michael's life on occasion and he also shows some tru...
This is from the same population that completed surveys suggesting 27% of parents would let their kids play GTA? lol

Reservoir Dogs was 10x worse and released years ago...Moving on.
You've got a point :D However, most households have a sofa and a decent sized TV. Not everyone has the perfect PC gaming setup :D
He may as well just put Guild Wars 2 at the number 1 spot and admit to trolling. Like you, I can think of a huge list that are way worse than what he has featured.
By absolute mess you mean people can't login due to capacity problems. The game is fine, the mechanics are fine, the experience is great. That's not a total mess. In terms of MMO history, this is a tiny spec of a hiccup.
Lol, do you play MMO games? Today's pay-to-play titles are not trying to keep subscribers for years and years. The era of WoW type profits is gone.
The subscription model, along with original purchase cost, is there purely to offset the cost of development before the inevitable switch to F2P. FFXIV has more chance of remaining P2P than ESO but I expect (and many others with common sense) to see a F2P transition in the first 12-18 months.
LOL. Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn the 2nd worst MMO launch in history? That entry is only there to include the image and ride the FFXIV train..
People that hoped ESO would be free-to-play were worried that a mainly console-based RPG could not be successful with a pay-to-play model
FFXIV has proven that's not the case.
Did you bother to read any of the article or just the highlighted content on N4G? :D Also, can you throw me a source for the 230k so I can adjust the article? Would be greatly appreciated :D
Well said. Let's wait until Nintendo release their biggest IP's before converting to a naysayer army :D
Not sure whether a PlayStation 3 tag is deserved for this as I still don't know anyone on PS3 that can get on ;) lol
