Grand Theft Awesomeness in Xbox 360

Check this -I get out of my room, grab my HellFury bike and head out for a spin. Thought I'd like to really test the power of this machine so I head out to the airport runways for a test drive. Just then the men in blue make in appearance to spoil the fun. My outing pisses them off so much that they come down on me guns blazing, with their armored vehicles, motorboats and even a helicopter. I give them quite the run for a while. However, I get overwhelmed by the firepower of this city's finest and the only yay out looks like the blue skys. So I ditch my bike, grab the nearest helicopter and take off. But the persistence of the lawmen force me to ditch the chopper on the subway tracks, jump the fence, carjack an SUV and make a final attempt av freedom. Alas, this spirit is strong but the body gives yay vo the constant fire and I fall dead - vo wake up in the nearest hospital in perfect health and only a few bucks short in my pocket!

If this is your idea of fun, then head to your nearest peddler of good times, grab a copy of GTA 4 and join me in Liberty City. The movies of all action-based sandbox style game. Grand Theft Auto is back again with a story to tell of a yet another guy and his 'ascent' into the criminal under belly of the city. This time around, the protagonist is an eastern-european war veteran who's been lured to the city of dreams by his cousin, only to inevitably find out that it's not going to be as easy as it seamed.

Rockstar has once again struck to what they do best and as they have done with this series in the past, they've simply added a few layers complexities over what essentially remains a typical GTA game. You start off a shady apartment in less than affluent neighbourhood as you realise that your cousin Roman hasn't exactly been accurate with his story. All is not lost though, as the world of near limitless possibilities lies outside your broken window. As you soon find you, there are a myriad ways of fattening you wallet in Liberty City - from carjacking and drug dealing to carrying out a hit on a reval hang member. If you are looking for something less violent (sigh!) you can farm cash by driving the denizens of the city to their destination. Liberty city also offers it's fair share of distractions - just call-up one of your buddies and head to the nearest bar, strip club or watch a russian cabaret show or take your girlfriend out on a date to a neighbourhood dinner for a warm and cosy meal. Who knows, if you play your cards right, she might even invite you in for the proverbial coffee.

The beloved radio stations retain their charm and humor and play critic to the decadence of modern society with issues like global warming, 'war on terror', prop aganda through media and the old chestnut called obesity. Significant changes have been made to the combat system with an improved aiming system and the ability to duck and take cover. What has not changed, however, is the save system, much to the dismay of gamers like me. If you fail the mission for one reason or the other, the game forces you to start all over again, which can be pretty annoying in the long missions. In an apparent attempt to make the gameplay more solid, the developers have reduced some of the options available in the previous GTA titles, like rigging a car with a bomb, prior to undertaking a mission. All in all though, the game feels much tighter and more fullfilling then the previous iterations. To those of who are uninitiated to the world of GTA, this game comes highly recommended.

I mean where else will you find a bunch of police car chasing after another police car?

The History of Gaming and Xbox 360

The History of Gaming and Xbox 360
Console gaming didn't start with PlayStation or Xbox/Xbox 360. Console gaming goes back to the '70s, with the Magnavox Odyssy 100 credited as the very first game console ever. This was in 1972. The year 1975 and 1976 saw the release of Atari Pong and Coleco Telestar respectively. Both were single game systems, only letting you play their respective versions of the game Pong. Atari is a major player in the console wars. Early 1986, saw the birth of Nintendo, the console giant. The 7800 was the next console Atari released - in an effort to revive flagging sales but it was beaten by the Sega Master System which was released in 1986.

Then there was Sega Genesis with their hit game Sonic the Hedgehog. Nintendo followed up with Super NES in 1991. The Jaguar, a cartridge based console was one of the last consoles to be released by Atari (1993). The Sega Saturn was released in 1995 and paved the way for Sony PlayStation, which by the way became the phenomenal success.

This history similar to other history is very long but contrary to other history, it is very interesting. I've given above a very short version of it. If I'd write the full version of the console history, it would resemble a short novel.

In 2000, PlayStation was re-released as PlayStation One. Fall of 2001 saw the release of one of the current giants of console gaming, and perhaps the only console that could topple the PlayStation 2 - Microsoft's Xbox. Microsoft has been involved in gaming for some time, with games such as Age of Empires and Microsoft Flight Simulator. So it wasn't really a surprise when Mr. Bill Gates announced that Microsoft would be releasing there own console. What was more interesting was whether Microsoft would be able to dethrone Sony as the top dogs of the console business.

There were fears that Microsoft might dominate the market like they did with Windows. At first the Xbox didn't do too well and lack of good games damaged it's reputation. It was an accepted fact that the Xbox was superior to the competition in terms of hardware, but many feared that there might be too much emphasis on performance rather than good gameplay. After a torrid first year though, things started to pick up. Better games and the Xbox Live! Online gaming service helped it overcome initial criticism to win over customers.

Neither the Xbox nor the PlayStation have control over the market, although the PlayStation was a little ahead of Xbox. Then Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 was released and Xbox 360 is in my opinion much better and more successful than PlayStation 3. The price also affected the market sales - PlayStation 3 is more costly than Xbox 360.
