| Lingyis said: you know GTA has gone prime time when you hear everybody talking about it... even on your classical music radio station. of course, you wouldn't expect kind words for GTA from those people. not exactly scathing either, but pretty balanced: "It's done extremely well commercially... but when you compare a game like that with classical music, it's really on two completely different ends of a spectrum in terms of human experience." and i thought, hmm, take two is not making donation to help any causes. maybe they can generate some positive PR by doing so, like Nintendo with its small $25,000 donation to the american heart association. or Sony's donation of a PS3 or something like that to sick kids. anyway, it did put the gaming experience into more perspective when they say it that way. |
Comparing classical music to GTA4 is a blasphemy in my opinion. Actually, comparing pretty much all video games to classical doesn't make sense at all so I can't picture really why he did it.
How many cups of darkness have I drank over the years? Even I don't know...
