April is going to be a VERY exciting month.
Not only is there (a) the arrival of our first born (Zym 2.0), theres also (b) the final series of Battlestar Galactica, and (c) the release of GTA:IV.
Granted, i realise that (a) will pretty much exclude all chances of me participating in (b) & (c) for say, the next 18 years. But for the next 7 weeks I can still dream.
Over at Kotaku they have posted a link to the new GTA:IV site - and like the previous games, it looks SWEEEET.
This time round the game is set in Liberty City (a rather thinly disguised New York), and the site lets you explore some of the characters & locations that will appear in the game.
These include the tough takinng Community Leader ‘Manny Escuela’….
And the ‘not so’ Majestic Hotel.
Time will tell how these will feature in the final game, but tucked way at the bottom of the page is one word that made my face light up - “Multiplayer” 
Theres no info as yet, but im hoping it will more than just the odd mini driving game. I adore ’sand-box games’, and adding a multiplayer element is just my idea of pure bliss.
Im spending most of my evenings playing Co-op Crackdown with ICHACAWAB at the moment. I would like to say that we’re progressing through the game nicely, but we tend to spend most of out time crashing cars, blowing stuff up, and throwing skips at each other. But that, as they say, is another story….

You make that sound like a bad thing!
