Chinese Destruction Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 (edited) I personally believe that Guns N' Roses' release history can be compared to Rockstar's most prominent Grand Theft Auto games.“Live ?!*@ Like a Suicide”/”Lies” era is similar to Grand Theft Auto III. Everyone could tell something great was about to happen, but it hadn't quite occurred yet.“Appetite” can be alikened to Vice City. The reception was fucking phenomenal. It was arguably at this point that both GN'R/G.T.A peaked.The “Illusions” are San Andreas. It was a step in a different direction but it was unanimously loved.The “Stories” editions provoked reactions of “The fuck?” and therefore this particular edition of G.T.A can be categorized with “The Spaghetti Incident?”.IV was entirely different to prior G.T.A releases. It divided opinions in a similar way to “Chinese Democracy”. It was loved by the section by enjoyed it and abhorred by the section who didn't.Another similarlity is that interest (in terms of both future G.T.A/GN'R releases) is presently at an all time low. However there are those who remain loyal to both respective concepts that are eager to see whether or not Axl/Rockstar will continue in the direction of IV or return to his/its “Appetite”/Vice City/maybe even San Andreas roots.

Nintari Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 “Live ?!*@ Like a Suicide”/”Lies” era is similar to Grand Theft Auto III. Everyone could tell something great was about to happen, but it hadn't quite occurred yet.That right there invalidates everything. GTA3 was considered great and a masterpiece right from the get go.http://ps2.ign.com/articles/165/165548p1.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuddMckagan Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 San Andreas is definitely the best GTA game, IV pretty much sucked. Liberty City Stories is actual pretty cool though. VC stories not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 In San Andreas when you buy that mansion on the hill, the interior decorator was sooo Chinese Democracy. I was looking around for a secret room where there would be secret hidden track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tater Totts Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I hated San Andreas, yes it was big and all but half of the landscape was either desert or hills/ fields Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
