they have had it for awhile its just a mod for the game you run around like normal but there are other people with you.

Other computer controled people?

No its online, you play with other people. I havent played it in a while but its pretty buggy and lagged like hell for me. Still cool to drive around and stuff w/ other people. Try it out. I dont think I've tried that version so its probably fixed alot of bugs. I dont think its worth going out and buying vc. I'll dl it right now and see how much of an improvement there is. Btw its supported by ase and gamespy arcade.

I've known about the GTA:Online mod, but I haven't heard a lot of good things about it. Actually, I really haven't heard anything about it. *shrug* Probably because it's just a mod and nothing official.

But still, if this allowed me to play GTA with other people online I would go buy a PC version of the game right now.

Too bad GTA sucks.

Is it like an MMO, or do you join games?

Nah you just join individual servers. I think the player limit is small.

Postal/Postal 2 and GTA are the same goddamn game - An expensive way to piss off politicians, and give you a hard-on because you can kill something besides nazi's and Zombies and Demons.

Yeah it plays well. Just too bad its an ass idea.

They're far more than that. First games in a LONG time where developers actually took the time to include so many little things that the game took forever to get old. They actually programmed the game thinking "hmmm, what would I try if I was playing the game" so there isn't much stupid crap like being unable to traverse a foot high step. You grab a fire truck and think "Damn, it'd be cool to be able to use the hose" only to find you can, and that pedestrians will go down like bowling pins. They didn't turn into a console giant because they're nothing more than what you describe. Postal hasn't sold jack because it's a shit game. GTA is the staple of the PS2 system because it's better than the rest of the games out there.
