Grand Theft Auto IV


The Top 7... Annoying nags that need to STFU

The champion ear-benders that should stop talking

Words: Matt Cundy, GamesRadar UK

This is a game that you can only get good at by playing over and over and over. And - as if the frustrating nature of the actual game isn't enough to put gristle up your chuffer - the Director's constant nagging will definitely push any man to breaking point. Instructions. Orders. Commands. It's fine for the first couple of goes. It's almost useful. But when you know what you have to do, but just can't do it, his incessant bossing quickly leads to extreme enragement.

U-Turn. Drift left. Drift right. Pass close to the cars. Through the gap. Scrape the vehicle. Hard left. Hard right. Smash the shack. Jump and hit the railing. Hit the boxes. Hit the ramp. Jump through the gap. Hit the action button. Follow the lead vehicle. Pass close to the explosion. Overtake left. Overtake right. Pop a wheelie. Break through the gate. Hit the jump. Yadda. Yadda. Yadda. It's like actual mental torture.

And when you inevitably fail miserably by driving into a river, the Director offers some smarmy, condescending comment like "Where are you going?" Seriously, if he was an actual real person we'd definitely take him down to China Town. What a loud-mouthed cock rod.

What about Navi? She wasn't calling us on a phone or anything, but that bitch was soooo annoying. I hope Chris spams the Navi sounds when TalkRadar talks about the article this week.

For the last time people... Navi isn't actually that annoying!

"But she keeps on constantly screaming 'HEY HELLO LISTEN!"

No she effing doesn't!!! She bugs you about once every ten minutes if you're doing a sidequest or something. That's it!!! If you get annoyed by one second of noise every ten minutes, how the heck do you ever play more annoying games without killing yourselves?

In GTAIV, Michelle pissed me off so much that I intentionally crashed the car at 100mph to send us flying out the windsheild into on-coming traffic.

@Yar - I agree, I never found Navi that annoying. Most of the time I didn't even notice her. Even when I did, she wasn't annoying to the extent everyone else thinks.

The announcer from Stuntman forgot to say 'simon says'.

"Give me your wife"
Hillarious article.

But out of the whole MGS franchise the one I thought needed to STFU the most was Mei Ling in the original.
You just want to save but need to listen to her inform you about japanese and chinese culture, ancient sayings and her oh so boring philosophy in life.
Every. Single. Time.
