I finally got to play as Trevor, and he is one crazy SOB, and it will be interesting to see what he does later in the game. One thing that stuck out to me, is that for being such a red-neck stereo type, he is too smart, its hard to explain, but when you finally play his section, it makes sense.
I'm guessing it's the same vibe as Jesse on Breaking Bad? The guy pulls off a dumb look initially, but give him some pieces and he can put the rest together pretty quickly.

Actually, Trevor makes a lot more sense once you manage to get enough clothes and a hairstyle to make him resemble Hunter S. Thompson. My roommate switched over to him randomly at some point to find him riding a moped on the Interstate while shouting "SCOOTER BUDDIES" in creepy voices at another guy doing it. I think he'd been doing drugs.

This guy tried to use his business card as proof of ID to pick up his pre-order of GTA V rather than use a valid photo ID...

How does everyone feel about how the game handles vehicle saving? When I found the car I mentioned a few posts back, I took it to my garage to save it and everything was fine. I took it out, and a mission caused me to have to leave it behind. Later I get a message that it had been impounded so I had to pay $250 to get it out. Later I was driving, and got in a police chase, which ended in a wreck and me at the hospital.

I head back to my house to get the car in the garage (like every other GTA) and there is nothing there! I check, and its not at the impound, its gone! I searched online, and everyone is saying the same thing, wreck the car before getting it repaired, and its gone for good, so be careful with any car you buy or put a lot of cash into. At first I was ticked off, but it means I will care for the car much more, not plowing through stuff blindly.

Both parties behaved poorly, however I'd say the lady was the more inappropriate.

Wow. I'm sorry but that woman should REALLY get fired.

Of course him trying to get a preordered and payed for game was really stupid of him, but she should just have refused to give it to him, not act like that.

And specially when he got angry and came back she should have tried to calm things down, not acting X10 worse.


Also gamestops stock OUYAs? Cool.

I guess I had it easy as a kid, I remember going to EB games and buying GTA 3 and Vice city at the age of 14 and there were no questions asked.
