It's been 10 years of silence
It's been 10 years of pain
It's been 10 years that are gone forever
And I'll never have a-gain, yeah
P.S. A legitimate Happy Birthday to one of my favorite albums ever

Ha u just play a 60+ hour main story in a week....anything will get annoying with that amount of time sink all at once...I'm still in chapter 3
Nah, I did a good amount of exploring, fucking about, and all that.
It's just RDR on steroids and I was expecting something a little more fresh.
Beat the game today. Have to agree with this 100%.
Still a fantastic game, one of my favs, but clunky controls due mostly to the elaborate animation of the main character becomes tedious after a while.
Same.
I like it a lot.
I would've:
My biggest complaint re: the controls is the bindings of L2/R2. I accidentally shot my gun a couple times.
It's also a pain to change weapons and ammo. The weapon wheel is showing it's age and limitations.
It's crazy to think RDR was 8 years ago. And SA is 14. O_O

I’ll beat it tomorrow.
I have 2-3 more missions.
My criticism doesn’t matter because this game will make more money than god but the story is mess, the controls are clunky, and the connection between its “new” superficial gameplay features and narrative is tenuous at best.
I give it high marks for graphics, detail, art direction, shooting mechanics, hunting, and first person mode.
The rest is deeply flawed.
It sticks the landing though.

I’m halfway through Chapter 4.
The world is insanely large, immersive, and detailed.
I’m having a lot of fun but I think the first game is better for a lot of reasons. If I wasn’t sinking crazy hours into this game I would say I’m disappointed.
I’m hoping it finishes strong. And there’s lots of story-based DLC.

There's not going to be a lot of footprint on the process this time, but I am fairly sure a new album will happen once all current commitments have been met.
It'll be interesting what they come up with.
I wouldn't be surprised to hear a heavily political record from Axl.

You're delusional if you think red carpet will be rolled out for a rock band in their mid-50s.
#118 Re: Guns N' Roses » Guns N' Roses tour to continue through 2017(and beyond) » 396 weeks ago
6-8 years?
More like 20 years wasted
Yes, true but between Axl's mental illness and Slash's alcoholism, it doesn't seem likely it would've happened until 2008-2010.
We can look back at 2001/2002 as well.
But really only a few select windows throughout the saga.
Slash also seems to be talking up his desire to make new GNR album more and more.
Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.
#119 Re: Guns N' Roses » Guns N' Roses tour to continue through 2017(and beyond) » 398 weeks ago
You ever see that movie The Break-Up with Vince Vaughan and Rachel from Friends?
The funny (sad) thing is the rift between Axl and Slash was exactly like that.
Petty bullshit that just snowballed and spiraled out of control.
6-8 years wasted.

The attack is basically a no-huddle run block, when they stretch the field, they're forced to block laterally as well as vertically.
It's like an all-body workout.
The Packers were running uptempo which is tiring but it's a vertical passing attack which is less difficult on linemen.
