Or Aerosmith, The Stones, Stooges, Led Zeppelin etc...

Of course it doesn't sound the same. They were influenced, not copying.

I'd never played the series until this one. The gameplay is great and it's very entertaining to actually play the game. When you're allowed to do that, that is. I mean, how many hours of cut scenes are there? You play for 15 minutes then it's 25 minutes of watching 'the story'? And that shit only gets worse the longer you play. About halfway through I ended up just skipping all the videos, and that sucks since you're then playing a game without knowing what's really happening.

I can understand why people think it's a good story compared to games in general, but common. If they were screenwriters they'd be over in Hollywood. A video game should have a supporting story, not a supporting gameplay.

I don't even know if I've finished this game. That's how bad it got at the end. It says "story mode normal complete" on my save, but I seriously don't know when that happened. Sure didn't feel like I completed anything. Guess I should have watched the cut scene...

You don't need money in the bank when you're a senator.

He also got investments in trusts. Dozens upon dozens of them in fact. None of which show accurate value. With an income of at least 180k and low expenses because of his position, I'd say his funds could be considerable. Either way, as a Senator he's hardly eating cheerios and saving coupons. Fancy business dinners, trips, parties...it hasn't changed much since Rome, has it?
