Re: [Xbox] Re: [gamers_for_life] GTA4

GTA 4 is not as good as what I thought it would be. Certainly not as good as Bioshock.

We're not  having blackouts in the U.S. and whenever we have had them in the past it was due to equipment failure and even one company intentionally causing the blackout to drive up prices although they were caught and those responsible are in prison.  I hae several HD TV's in my home.  My largest is 62" and I didn't notice any increase in my power bill.  Besides even if it did go up it would be pennies per day sop yeah... who cares.  If you can't afford a few extra bucks for utilities you should have never bought the TV in the first place right?  Then there is the 360.   It's a nice power hog too.

I am not rich so why do I hate you lol. Garden heater use huh? I really don't find it cost effective to be growing a garden when veggies are dirt cheap.
 
As far as blackouts in the US I haven't heard anything here and nobody has mentioned it to me. I don't watch news at all though.

Besides its never about JUST if you can afford the extra $. You seem to be
forgetting that the electricity companies themselves are having problems
SUPPLYING the juice down the cables due to all the modern electronics sucking
power. We have even been warned in the UK that increased aircon and garden
heater use could result in blackouts, something which has already happened in
some parts of the US.

Sure a 61" modern TV is nothing like a CRT, but then you wouldn't (couldn't?)
buy a CRT that large anyway.
