So earlier I was having a look at my stats and everything seems to be in order apart from one tiny little thing: Police killed 14.4k Noose killed 16.4k Now yes I do love to live on the wild side and it is exciting with the full 5 star chases and everything but.... when I went to compare it with Shortround I could not believe the difference . So then I was checking everyone's and I have discovered that no one is not even close to my kills... what's going on? So I ask myself how can this be as I do remember killing ever single one of them so that's not really the issue, but is my kill stats too high or is everyone else's just way to low?

I did a little searching and seems someone recently put together an analysis based on Time/$$ reward for various missions. It seems the optimal mission completion time is at the 4 min mark (no earlier) based on the following: < 1 min = 10% base 1 - 2 min = 25% of base 2 -3 min = 50% of base 3 - 4 min = 75% of base 4 - 6 min = 100% of base 6 - 8 min = 120% of base 8 - 10 min = 140% of base 10 - 12 min = 160% of base 12 - 15min = 180% of base > 15 min = 200% of base Missions for highest $/minute (assumes you can complete the mission in 4 minutes): Trash Talk: $3715/minute - 616RP/minute - $14860 & 2466RP Rooftop Rumble: $3657/minute - $1…

Cost me just under $5mil....I have $11k now I cant decide if I think this car is ugly or cool looking. If I were still 12, it would be a wet dream come true probably....one thing is for sure, it is fast as hell. Then I bought MOST of the list of cars I have been wanting for a while, or at least as many as I could squeeze $5mil out of.....stay tuned for Futo-specific races. Also got the bullpup rifle, seems pretty good, seems better than the special carbine anyway.

Almost all of us not on Swedish ubernet have either experienced, or continue to experience, the myriad of connection problems with this game. I dont know what it is about this game's programming but it seems to have a very low tolerance when it comes to connections I had the full house of issues: console freezing, being in a room in free mode and everyone dumps out, loading into a job and everyone disappears when we load in, hosting a job and losing half the room when we load into the job, timing out and getting booted to single player. It was EXTREMELY frustrating. I would have one or all of the above problems at least once or twice, often multiple times, every singl…

My thoughts on a few new jobs
by JustHatched- 4 replies
- 993 views
First, if you have not tried the new parachutes, this is a must. Some require you go thru the red CP and ditch the main chute and free fall again and pull the 2nd chute, puts a whole new challenge on it. And probably the best job in the game INO is http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/gtav/jobs/job/bLvwK73Zs0KfA6OMl5YTrw?platformId=null Aquire Targets. It is capture the flag with Lazers. 4 teams of 2, fly thru the CP (flag) and you are it till you get shot and then flag reappears. Keep the flag for 5 seconds to get a point. 5 points and your team wins.

When Little Big Planet isnt enough. The DM creator with the "person walking"-view turns out to be a great way for my youngest kid to enjoy the game in a safe way. He can explore the map on foot, no npc no guns no death, just pure exploring. The ability to hit and kick is still there, and if you fall from too high there will be stains.

236Rate the Last Film you Watched 2: Electric Boogaloo
What I Watched This Week #173 (Apr 21-27) South dir. Chantal Akerman/1999/1h11m This documentary sees Chantal Akerman travel to Jasper, Texas in the aftermath of the brutal lynching of a black man, James Byrd Jr., who was dragged behind a truck for several miles, an act so brutally violent that he was decapitated during it. This is not a crime documentary that seeks to explore what happened, but rather a portrait of a town and the people who live there and how they are trying to process what happened shot in Akerman's distinctive style. Like a typical documentary there are talking heads interviews with people close to Byrd Jr., but Akerman's use of long takes and silences allows us to really absorb what they're saying. These static shots are juxtaposed with extended tracking shots where Akerman drives through the community, filming people going about their lives with this tragedy still hanging over them. This is something she did in News From Home in New York, but the context here makes it feel like a funeral procession. The most effective of these shots is the very last one, the view looking out of the back of a truck as it drives down the road where Byrd Jr. was murdered. It just keeps going and going and forces us to imagine the unimaginable torture he went through. Incredibly powerful filmmaking 9/10 Lime's Film of the Week! The Meetings of Anna dir. Chantal Akerman/1978/2h8m Akerman's follow up to her revolutionary Jeanne Dielman, The Meetings of Anna is a deeply personal semi-autobiographical film about a female director, Anna (Aurore Clement), traveling around Europe promoting her latest film. This is a melancholic film about isolation and even when Anna is talking to other people there is a disconnection there that always makes her feel alone. Like Jeanne Dielman this is heavy with repetition and routine, with each different hotel room blending into the next, each conversation being interchangeable with any of the others. This culminates with the ending where Anna returns to a home just as anonymous as any of the other rooms she has inhabited and, lying expressionless in bed, she listens to messages on her answerphone. People are reaching out to her, but she doesn't return the call. Akerman's style really lends itself to this story, with the carefully composed shots feeling almost like a prison trapping her. The feeling also comes through in Clement's performance. Her detachment from other people growing over the course of the film, that is apart from the scene with her mother (Lea Massari) in which she is able to revert to an almost childlike state of vulnerability. 8.5/10 The Black Hole dir. Phillip Sansom, Olly Williams/2008/3m This comedic short film stars Napoleon Ryan as an office worker putting in some overtime when he prints out a black hole (though technically it acts more like a portal than a black hole, as that would immediately destroy the planet). At first he uses it for trivial things like free snacks from the vending machine, but his greed leads him to a darkly comic end. It's very simple with an obvious message, but I thought that the ending moves it up a notch, making it feel like a mini episode of The Twilight Zone. 6/10 The Platform 2 dir. Galder Gaztelu-Urrutia/2024/1h41m This is a prequel to what I thought was a fairly decent dystopian thriller set in a prison where the cells are stacked on top of each other with an open hole in the middle. Every day a platform loaded with food is lowered down cell by cell, with nothing being left for the prisoners at the bottom. This adds nothing to the concept with totally forgettable characters who I didn't care about. There are a few scenes of quite grisly violence but again, it's nothing that the first film didn't do better. I did enjoy the small appearance from Trimagasi (Zorion Eguileor), one of the main characters from the original film, memorable because he actually had some character. 4/10 Three short films from Georges Méliès: A Terrible Night 1896/1m The Vanishing Lady 1896/1m The One-Man Band 1900/2m These three shorts from Georges Méliès really highlight his earlier career as a stage magician whilst also showcasing his evolving cinematic techniques. A Terrible Night is the simplest of the three where a sleeping man is harassed by a giant spider. There's really nothing of note here other than the fact that this is the first creature-feature. The other two are much more interesting and entertaining. The Vanishing Lady gives a macabre twist to a classic trick where he makes a woman disappear beneath a sheet, but not before she is transformed into a skeleton. The final film is the most playful and experimental and it sees Méliès using what were at the time cutting edge editing tricks to duplicate himself several times over, creating the titular one-man band. These films, while charming, all feel like Méliès honing his techniques in preparation for his magical longer films starting with 1902's A Trip To The Moon. I'll give these a combined score of 6/10 Inside Out dir. Pete Docter/2015/1h35m Going through all of the Pixar films in order I've finally come to the point where I've not seen hardly any of them going forward, having gotten burnt out by all of the sequels. I knew nothing about Inside Out going in and I can't believe it's taken me ten years to watch this, it's fantastic. It tells the story of 11 year old Riley (Kaitlyn Dias) who has just moved to a new city with her parents, leaving behind all of her friends and everything she loves, stirring up her emotions. These emotions are personified and live inside her head, with Joy (Amy Poehler) doing everything she can to keep Riley happy. But lately it seems like Sadness (Phyllis Smith) keeps making things worse. When the two are accidentally expelled from HQ they have to work together to make it back and save Riley's mental health. This is a brilliantly simple concept well executed with a strong message that's not just for the younger viewers. The fact that it can be unhealthy to want to be happy all of the time and that you need a healthy mix of emotions, even negative ones, for good mental health. This is also a really funny film, with the juxtaposition between Joy and Sadness's personalities making them a great double act. There's also good support from Lewis Black, Bill Hader, and Mindy Kaling as Anger, Fear and Disgust. The instantly recognisable voice of Richard Kind also appears, playing Riley's forgotten imaginary friend Bing b*ng who ended up as my favourite character. I wasn't really looking forward to this run of Pixar films, but if they're even half as good as this I'll be satisfied. 9/10- 2

236Rate the Last Film you Watched 2: Electric Boogaloo
Bladerunner (1982) dir Ridley Scott For me, this is one of the greatest sci-fi films of all time. It's a film that has be re-released at least twice. I have seen the original theatrical release, the 1992 Director's Cut, and the 2007 Final Cut. The 1992 version, I think, set the trend for other director's to release Director's cuts of their films. It's certainly the first one I ever saw. However, despite the name, Ridley Scott did not have complete control over that version. He did over the 2007 one, and it's that one that I am reviewing. I could not remember the differences to the 1992 one without looking them up, but both of the later ones get rid of a voice over (a bit like a 1940s detective film) and different ending that got added to the original after feedback from test audiences (I think). It's based on the Philip K. d*ck novel “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?”. The basics of the plot is the same as the book, but the specific story is very different in places. I would recommend the book to anyone who is a fan of serious sci-fi, but it's the sort of book you need to really concentrate on. It was written in 1968 and set in 2019 when that seemed a long way in the future. The world the story is set in is way more advanced than we are now. Harrison Ford plays Deckard, a retired LA cop, a Bladerunner, who specialises in tracking down and terminating rogue androids, called replicants. These are indistinguishable from real humans to all but the experts. Even people like Dekard can only tell for sure by lengthy interrogation of suspected replicants that is designed to show up lack of emotions that real humans have. Replicants are banned from Earth, only supposed to be used on off-world space colonies. Any that do get found on Earth can be killed on the spot. Deckard is brought back by his boss Bryant (M. Emmet Walsh) and his assistant Gaff (Edward James Olmos) because a group of replicants hijacked a ship that was later found abandoned on Earth. They are believed to be in LA seeking their creator, Mr. Tyrell (Joe Turkel). The replicants, at least those that have not already been eliminated, are lead by Batty (Rutger Hauer) and others are played by Daryl Hannah, Brion Jones and Joanna Cassidy. William Sanderson plays Sebastian, a lonely man with a premature ageing disease who makes his on androids (not realistic or dangerous enough to be classed as replicants) and Sean Young plays Tyrell's PA Rachel. The cast are, overall, good, but Rutger Hauer gives the best performance I ever saw of him as Batty varies from charming, to psychopathic, to child-like fearful naïvety. There is a big plot element to do with Deckard and Rachel that I won't spoil, and various things thrown in that have kept some fans speculating as to the true nature of the various characters. If you know the film you will probably know what I am referring to here. I will say that I don't see in the film all the things that some claim to clearly see, but I see enough to agree with the consensus. Also some of the theories about that do not apply to all versions of the film. The sets and cinematography are stunning. It still looks to me well ahead of its time, as does Ridely Scott's Alien, so to me it shows what great film makers could achieve well before they had access to sort of CGI and AI tech available today. It also has a pretty good modern score from Vangelis. The best scene is the penultimate one, just with Batty and Deckard and includes the famous “tears in the rain” monologue that, apart from a few hundred years of technological development, would not have been out of place in a Shakespeare play. 10 / 10 The theatrical version I would only give an 8 to because, although I have only ever seen it once, I do remember the voice-over annoying me and the altered ending, a little bit added on, pointlessly changes the story.- 2
