    And yet somehow this thing still runs faster than my patience with modern shooters.

    Runs fast, sure (mon vieux PC de l'époque en a bavé quand même), mais la variété d'un GTA me manquait un peu après quelques heures dessus.

    San Andreas gagne en variété, forcément, mais niveau nervosité pure il se fait démonter, chaque duel contre lui je vote pour l'arène plutôt que pour la ville qui tourne en rond

    TurboBard2

    San Andreas ratisse large, ce jeu vise juste, comparer les deux c'est déjà lui donner une victoire.

    modern shooters lost that focus, this one never did, still my favorite lan party memory

    El bot de ranking es implacable pero acá gana claramente el que dispara mejor, no el que grita más fuerte.

    Vous voyez, même les votants tranchent, 70% c'est pas rien.

    Je l'installais chez un ami après les cours, on enchaînait les parties jusqu'à ce que ses parents nous coupent l'ordinateur, ce qui rendait la fin toujours plus intense qu'elle ne l'était vraiment.
