What the fuck is this shit? I start up a game and I have a job, I have to run errands, hell loading boxes in Shenmue was better than this. Oh look I get to run around a small boring town, yippe. (Drug dealers/uncle) "write me a letter", write your own letter you bitch, what you think I am into bestiality. Then I tried to go to GG town to hopefully take a dump in it, but I need to do the whole friend code thing, ahhhh.

So there are my first impressions. I'm sure I'll come around at some point.

Pretty much my first impressions of GTA:Chinatown Wars to be honest hahahahaha.

Goto hell ...

j/k

.. but seriously.

Loading boxes in Shenmue was awesome. Legendary even.

Send me your code on Wii so i can go to your town GG. I am not givig up on it just yet.

 GGs town smells like piss. 

Vader did you buy the game or just borrow it? Because IMHO renting or borrowing AC is about the worst thing you can do. It's a game you have to play every day for half an hour, not a sit through romp. 

Have you done much? Did you:

1. Get all your tools?
2. Lay down paths?
3. Upgrade your house?
4. Are you collecting items daily and decorating your house?
5. Catching fish?
6. Trying to get foreign fruit?
7. Visiting the clothes store for new stuff each day?
8. Designing your own clothes?
9. Get your hair cut? Or shoes polished?
10. Get access to Redds store?
11. Note that Gracie's designer goods changes with the seasons?
12. Get your emotions?
13. Play online?
14. Visit the city?
15. Feed the seal?
16. Give Pascal a scallop?
17. Shoot down any item balloons?
18. Plant any flowers?
19. Write letters with gifts to villagers (in exchange for items back?)
20. Put anything up at the auction?
21. Start collecting bugs and fish for the museum?
22. Did up Gyroids?
23. See KK on Saturday night? (after 8pm in the coffee shop)
24. Buy turnips for the stalk market (8am-12pm Sunday mornings)
25. See any holidays or special events?
26. Give the camel used carpets?

And tons more other stuff.

I don't know. I never tried it before. It just never occurred to me to play it or I never had the impulse to buy it.

Nothing wrong with the game. I'm sure it's fun but I just never felt interested, I guess. I really should check out the DS version though.

Thought you would have tried it ages ago being big on DS.

i was having some internet issues since saturday and called for support and have just had a couple of tech guys come install a brand new wireless modem, already configured and everything.

so now that i no longer need the stupid dongle to get my wii and ds online i think i'll have incentive to play it more and maybe even get animal crossing out of the box and start playing it finally

Someone had to come over to install a.... wireless.... modem? Are you a technodunce?

no, i just didn't want to pay for it so i had to wait till i was having some problems before i could call the company, and they came and changed it.  so it's cool.

You should have sabotaged it.

I tried it again today... yeah its not for me. I did a few of those things GG, but I couldnt take it anymore. I still want to visit your town though, I sent you a Wii message with a pic showing my code, did you get it?

Not yet no.

You should come over so I can show you the improvements you can make to your town, the museum, aquarium etc. You need to play it everyday and put some work into getting new stuff.

What you will notice online is that everyone's town is different. Also there are region specific holidays, so for instance if there is a euro specific holiday the only way you can see it is by coming over to a friends online.

I think we should meet with Steelo too, so register his code and mine from the online thread and we can meet up. You need to tell me a time though.
