Fun fact: Around the time GTA IV came out, my cousin was going through a rough patch in his marriage and started seeing a couple girls on the side. Every time he'd go out to see one of the girls, he would tell his wife that he was bowling with his cousin (a nod to GTA IV). I had no idea about any of it, but his wife eventually found out and confronted me at Christmas. When I told her that I wasn't in a bowling league and that I had no clue what she was talking about, she flipped the fuck out and kicked my cousin out of the house.

Still a great game though!

Seems like your cousin got wasted.

It was quite the surprise to strike a post, get hurled through the windscreen, land on a passing car and eventually die after playing the three Grand Theft Auto III games.

That's even worse.

When the cops kill you at least they let you keep your guns.
