GALACTIC EXCLUSIVE: We've got GTA IV!

Or: How lies, pranks, and Photoshop nearly resulted in another Revolutionary War.

Words: Chris Antista, GamesRadar US

We were still getting the occasional extremely offensive post, be they insensitve or flat-out porn. And I had to break my personal oath of anti-censorship to delete them. It broke my heart, but it had to be done. Everyone calmed, and after a few hours worth of talking down the more zealous members of the UK board from posting any more September 11th pics (“What about Holocaust pictures?”) everyone was miraculously getting along.

“You should hang out here more.”
“No, you should hang out here more.”

Kumbaya.

As a final peace offering, the artistically talented UK lot even started posting magic in one of my photoshoppy contest threads. In order to win the GTA foam finger above that Rockstar sent us, I asked people to paste it into other pics. And they obliged - brilliantly.

The remaining page is the handywork of the fantastic GamesRadar community, both US and UK. Together at last, and it feels so good.

And a sincere thanks to all of you for having so much fun at the expense of my stupid face.

Hope you weren't expecting any actual news :)
