Bicyclists started appearing when I got to Trevor's neck of the woods. Ran over a few. If you hate how running works, you might well loathe flying and (worse) landing.

It also occurred to me that it may be necessary to switch to Franklin and complete some of his missions before the heist will unlock.

Michael and Trevor pretty much are Kane and Lynch.

My advice at this point would be twofold. Sorry if you've already tried it. First, look at the map and see if there any icons you can't account for. I recall him saying about needing to raid the Police to get some weapons. Second and last, when all else fails, Youtube the mission.

Anyway, it neither fell short of nor exceeded expectations. No compelling villains or "dark" characters, so there's no real sense of menace or betrayal, which are the ingredients that make a show like this most palatable. it didn't help that very little happened that wasn't already spoiled by...

I just finished the first heist tonight. Here's how it started for me: As for how the mission played out from there, in a fairly disappointing fashion/ That's a separate set of spoiler text:

No need to act all dumbfounded. As I said, I watched the trailer. I didn't go do research on them. If that's what 49 is supposed to look like at a glance, I gotta get back in the market.

Lester's messages on your phone should tell you what you need to do. The idea of having three characters that you can switch between is long overdue in a video game. The only other game where I've seen it was in Clive Barker's Jericho. Imagine a game like Skyrim where you have multiple...

True, there's also a costume, codename, trademark abilities and/or paraphernalia. Basically, stuff more fascinating than these guys are likely to have going on. Could be good anyway though. Watching that trailer, I can only think about how young this show is skewing. If Coulson weren't around...

People rag on Hawkeye because they have to rag on someone. Superheroes embody power fantasies, and the less powerful superheroes are prone to being the butt of jokes. The idea of a superhero with more finesse than firepower just doesn't appeal to a lot of people. I've been playing superhero...

It's a $60 game. Average price. The OP doesn't bother to elaborate, but I can only guess he's referring to it making a billion dollars in less than a week. Rockstar is a good custodian of their IP's. They haven't fallen prey to the trend of running their IP's into the ground via annualization...

A little from column A, a little from column B. Yes, it's sensible for companies to license their franchises. Yes, it's bad business to sell that license away. But you'll be amazed what a company staring down the barrel of insolvency will sign away to generate short-term revenue. Especially...

Cugel's stories are picaresque tales (essentially, the precursor to road-trip movies). They're the lightest of his works. Demon Princes is a little more plot-driven and features a contemplative protagonist.

Farther back than that, actually. It was one of comics' first clumsy attempts at "relevant" storytelling. If there's some way to post the image directly rather than just a link to it, I haven't figured it out yet.

And then there's the protagonist of the video game, Lee Everett. Great game that evokes the same process of gut-wrenching decision-making as the comic, and delivered in an episodic, five-bucks-a-shot format that I hope will catch on. Bet it will make some GOTY lists come December.

For example, Spider-Man fights Juggernaut. His best Sunday punch can't faze him. His webbing doesn't stick to him. He can try to trip him or obscure his vision but these are just delay tactics. Now, he ultimately does triumph by dumping a thousand tons of wet cement on top of him, but that's a...

Well, supposedly it's "every story book character you've ever known" or somesuch. Disney owns Marvel, so maybe we'll see Dr. Strange show up and toss Rumplestilskin into the Dark Dimension.

Spider-Man might outwit or outmaneuver the Hulk or Thor, but that's dealing in situational abstractions. Beating the odds. I think it's implicit to the OP that we're talking about winning a knock-down, drag-out, not pulling rabbits out of the hat. Is Iron Man in the same weight class as Thor...

Seems like you've got the general idea. It's not like the armor can absorb that kind of elecrticity all day. Iron Man's a heavy-hitter in the superhero crowd, but Thor in terms of raw poer is in a class only a few can touch. Such has been depicted in Avengers comics time and again.
