GTA IV Culture: More Parodies & a GTA IV Munny

April 28, 2008 -
Last week we gave a mention to Minusworld's tongue-in-cheek GTA IV Activity Book for Kids.

This morning we note that Crackle.com has posted a pretty funny GTA IV parody video (left).

Minusworld takes another (not quite as clever) bite of the GTA IV apple with a satirical article explaining why Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper is begging Rockstar to create Grand Theft Auto: Montreal as its next installment in the series

Finally, an artist by the name of Scave has apparently created a custom GTA IV munny (left) for Rockstar.

The munny features, of course, GTA IV protagonist Niko Bellic.

Be aware there's some adult humour involved, Not Safe for Work.

The link to the video and the activity book are the same.

404 on the montreal page

Every page on Minus World gives a 404 when you try to click through. But I'm not sure I wanted to read another "lol all Canadians are beer-swilling lumberjacks" article anyway, eh?

[...] GTA:IV is out tomorrow, which means I’ll be picking it up in a year or so when I eventually cave in and buy a 360. Already, the parodies are piling up, and one in particular caught my eye: GP mentioned that The -Minus World had a piece on Stephen Harper trying to make GTA:Montreal happen. Can’t link through to the main article because comedy apparently demands bad web design that gives 404s on every page, but from the introductory description (Canadians riding golden eagles, which they no doubt wingjacked) it’s probably a trip through the “51st State” mentality, where all of us Stalinist Canuckistanis are beer-swilling lumberjacks with lisps, perpetually trying to dig ourselves out of the snow that falls whenever the sun goes down. Eh? Eh?! Truly, when you have run out of George W. Bush jokes, you come to Canada and avail yourself of the abundant stereotype fields. Never mind that Toronto is further south than St. Paul, Minnesota; if they knew that, they’d just use it as ammunition against Minnesota. [...]

Michael Chandra: Correct AE, but then again the owner's own words are about "wishes", not about an order. No "we told him not to", but going against his wishes.10/20/2014 - 2:16pm
Matthew Wilson: yup. sadly that has been true for awhile.10/20/2014 - 2:10pm

Andrew Eisen: Michael Chandra - Unless I overlooked it, we haven't seen how the directive to not talk about whatever he wasn't supposed to talk about was phrased so it’s hard to say if it could have been misconstrued as a suggestion or not.10/20/2014 - 12:35pm
Andrew Eisen: Hey, the second to last link is the relevant one! He actually did say "let them suffer." Although, he didn't say it to the other person he was bickering with.10/20/2014 - 12:29pm

Andrew Eisen: Neo_DrKefka - "Attacking"? Interesting choice of words. Also interesting that you quoted something that wasn't actually said. Leaving out a relevant link, are you?10/20/2014 - 11:04am
quiknkold: ugh. I want to know why the hell Mozerella Sticks are 4 dollars at my works cafeteria...are they cooked in Truffle Oil?10/20/2014 - 10:41am
Neo_DrKefka: Anti-Gamergate supporter Robert Caruso attacks female GamerGate supporter by also attacking another cause she support which is the situation happening in Syia “LET SYRIANS SUFFER” https://archive.today/F14zZ https://archive.today/Wpz8S10/20/2014 - 10:18am
Neo_DrKefka: That is correct in an At-Will state you or the employer can part ways at any time. However Florida also has laws on the books about "Wrongful combinations against workers" http://www.flsenate.gov/Laws/Statutes/2012/448.04510/20/2014 - 10:07am

Michael Chandra: 'How dare he ignore my wishes and my advice! I am his boss! I could have ordered him but I should be able to say it's advice rather than ordering him directly!'10/20/2014 - 8:52am
Michael Chandra: If GP goes "EZK, do not talk about X publicly for a week, we're preparing a big article on it" and he still tweets about X, they'd have a legitimate reason to be pissed.10/20/2014 - 8:52am
Michael Chandra: If GP tells Andrew "we'd kinda prefer it if you stopped talking about Wii-U for 1 week" and he'd tweet about it anyway, firing him for it would be idiotic.10/20/2014 - 8:51am
Michael Chandra: Legal right, sure. But that doesn't make it any less pathetic of an excuse.10/20/2014 - 8:50am
