Grand Theft Auto 4 expected to sell 9 million copies (reviews have been overwhelmingly positive)

saw a commercial this weekend... looks beautiful. Too bad I'd have to buy a $300 gaming machine that I'd never play after the initial week of marathon gaming to play it.

(as I did with the Wii -- got it, played for a while, then it was played more by other people than me, then I sold it and haven't missed it yet).

Video games are just a huge time sink for me. I just end up tired with cramped hands and nothing to show for it (other than hours and days of my life wasted).
