Game Review: Grand Theft Auto 4, XBox 360

Linked by Thom Holwerda on Sat 28th Mar 2009 03:13 UTC

I had prepared myself to experience the world's best game. Judging by other people's reviews, Grand Theft Auto 4 was crafted in a special gaming studio in heaven, authored by Jesus Christ himself, and it descended upon us from the heavens on a golden chariot made out of chocolate covered in fairy dust. Imagine my surprise when I experienced the world's biggest turd in gaming since Davilex' A2 Racer (Dutch people will understand).

although I'm admittedly not familiar with "Yale DNA"

He's probably talking about the Sibley-Ahlquist work on DNA-DNA Hybridization. All the items he mentions regularly make the rounds on conspiracy theorist sites, the stories and claims getting ever more fanciful as they pass from site to site. As these folks are *really* uncomfortable with the idea of our having DNA in common with other primates, let alone birds, "coverage" of the Sibley-Ahlquist work often receives a special dose of imagination.
