GTA Tightened'reas has a minigame where you play golf with a porta-potty and satchel charges My chat was flaming me for being bad, so I had to hit them with a fully blind shot on the 3rd hole

Project Eagle has falsely struck my video covering their behaviour. Not unexpected from such shitty people. The problem is always the same, to submit a counter-notice I have to send my full doxx to the team, which is not happening. They know the system is broken.

Today I participated in my first ever Kickboxing fight, it went super well! Just an interclub fight so nothing ranked or anything, just wanted to test myself and fight in front of a crowd Enjoy this image of me landing a nice little headkick x

So the Rockstar union busting saga has gone to court, Rockstar has had to provide evidence that their firings were justified. One employee got fired for this single discord message, they wrote nothing else in the union discord. No disciplinary, no meeting. Pure scum company

Today I signed up to compete at my boxing gym. Nothing long term, just one fight to knock it off the bucket list It's something I've been wanted to do for a long time, really push myself out of my comfort zone and go to war with someone in a ring/cage 🥊

Fuck man... This guy taught me absolutely everything I know about chess. I watched his videos with breakfast every morning, engrossed by his ability to teach and clear passion for the sport. I'm still awful at chess, but I'd be much more awful without him, rip <3

The devs behind GTA SanVive have opened positions for closed testers of their mod pack, and they're asking for your government ID as part of the process What the fuck is wrong with these people lmao Do NOT give your ID to some random dev, and stay the hell away from these guys

Here we go again! Aon Gamer has illegally struck my channel. To those who don't know, I made a video exposing him for charity fraud a little while back. My video is entirely fair use, but of course YT doesn't care about that :) Only my 2nd ever false strike, thought I'd have more by now tbh

Recently WatchMojo uploaded a GTA-related video on their MojoPlays channel, and it is full of misinformation and could've been avoided with a few minutes of fact cheecking. I made a video debunking all the nonsense, and showcasing the pure slop they produce now. Enjoy :) youtu.be/QNkITaevtx8

Since playing GTAVC Nextgen v1.2 and it still having major bugs, I'm going to try and create my own patch that fixes as many issues as possible. I can't fix everything (some of it would require full game rewrites) but I'm gonna do my best to fix all I can and make patch v1.3 :)

SASquad (people who made the SA Stories demo I looked at recently) have locked their mod behind sharing your personal information with them in order for them to "thank you" Goes without saying but do not share your information with these random modders, this is extremely scummy

GTA Vice City Nextgen Edition (aka VC in IV engine) is seemingly dead, entire YT channel nuked by Rockstar days from release. Not surprising, they broke the golden rules (don't generate massive buzz before you release, and don't take any money) Still a shame

My next video is gonna be crazy Started off telling a story about GTA Modders stealing concepts from each other. It has now evolved into exposing people in the community for scamming charities lmao Coming soon 🤠
