"HUSTLER COMING THROUGH!"

[spatch]

Imagine my joy when I learned that Grand Theft Auto IV for the PC has a video editor and that you can save tons of wacky clips any time you like.

BEHOLD, THEN, the all-action sometimes-cussing epic NIKO BELLIC PAYS A VISIT.

The Director's Cut may include an actual ending!

Nice!

What amuses me about that footage is how awful every other driver is in that game. The three-car pile-up as the cops try to close in?

I've never played Grand Theft Auto or really ever watched it being played. So I am going to assume that it is pretty much all just like this.

Do you get to pick the music track using the editor?

The driving AI is pretty decent through most of the game but they go inexplicably bonkers on the two-lane bridges, arbitrarily cutting lanes and swerving into each other and stuff. They don't do this on the regular two-lane roads and they behave very nicely at intersections, so I'm not quite sure why some strange "sure, go ahead and drive like maniacs" code is in place unless some of the world devs had some bad experiences on the Manhattan Bridge while doing research or something.

The Italian Job music lends such a sophisticated air to the film. And such a nice car. Preeety car.
