That is truly the most bizarre comment I have ever seen. If you’re making fun of people because they bowl by actually swinging their arm what does that say about someone that would do it by wiggling their thumbs. Maybe you should grab a gun, get drunk and drive a car around at high speed instead of playing GTA IV.

That's nothing you can play Virtual Bowling, Virtual Darts, and Virtual Pool all in GTA IV with Virtual friends. In GTA IV is you get virtual junk e-mails, and go on the virtual internet to see virtual funny websites, or watch virtual TV in Nico's apartment, or receive virtual text messages from your annoying virtual friends, about how you can download virtual ringtones and virtual themes for your virtual phone.

Apparently when you recreate seemingly simple activities in a big serious realistic game it's immersive and genius. (Ignore the fact you can still commit a few hundred acts of manslaughter and get off on a slap on the wrist.)

When you do the same thing for a small colorful arcade like game it's just becomes a gimmicky diversion for some reason. =P

Now that is odd. I'm always taking crap about Wii mini games but apparently they're OK as long as they are in GTA IV.

It all does sound terribly clever and amusing, except for the virtual junk mail, and I’m sure it provides a needed break between acts of mayhem. Still I’m not sure virtual friends playing virtual pool elevates the experience to a life changing epiphany. "Casual" or "Non-Casual", it's still just a freaking video game for God's sake. If it's more than that to you, then you definately need to get a real life.
