O ataque da etiqueta nojenta… Parte 2

3 05 2008

E volta o cão arrependido… Eu sei, já escrevi sobre isso. Mas eu tenho uma implicância tão grande com essa etiqueta que vocês nem imaginam. Hoje fui no shopping e comprei um jogo para passar o tempo enquanto a Saraiva não entrega o GTA IV, que aliás segundo o site mudou a data do recebimento do dia 6 de maio para o dia 15 de maio. Vejam que “maravilha” de etiqueta, notem a bela redação e preocupação para que a tradução seja a mais exata possível.

Lindo não ? Notem quantas informações essenciais que eu nunca poderia entender olhando para a capinha do jogo. Reparem também na tradução da palavra glaive. Vou colocar o texto original aqui.

Lança… É tão poético, principalmente pelo fato da droga da arma do cara(que parece mais um emo) ser mais próxima de um bumerangue do que de uma lança. Vocês entendem a minha revolta ? Além de não acrescentar nada ainda deixa a porcaria da capinha cheia de cola. Bom, com licença que eu vou arrancar essa porcaria. Desejem-me sorte.





5 Segredos legais de GTA IV

3 05 2008

5 segredos(que não são mais segredos) do GTA IV. Tirado do Yahoo Games.

Fruit computers

Head for one of the Tw@ internet cafes, and point your in-game web browser to www.fruitcomputers.com. You’ll be greeted with a sparse, suspiciously familiar web page advertising fruit-shaped computers - an obvious parody of Apple. There’s even a banana-shaped iFruit phone. (”No buttons. No reception. No storage capacity. All ego.”)

Somebody answer the phone

Speaking of cell phones, GTA IV plays a cruel trick on the cell-addicted. When you’re driving a car and Niko receives a call from one of his friends, your TV speakers will imitate the telltale chirps of cellular interference just before Niko’s phone rings. Hands up - how many of you have reached for your own phones upon hearing it? Yeah, us too.

To Catch A Predator

GTA IV features its own TV-style child predator sting operation. Just drop into a Tw@ cafe and visit the web site www.littlelacysurprisepageant.com. What’s that? You just wanted to watch a sting, not be the subject of one yourself? Too late. Better get running, because the cops are probably already at the cafe door.

Visit The Heart Of Liberty City

Liberty City might seem living and breathing, but who’d have thought it actually had a beating heart as well? You’ll need a chopper and access to the entire map to discover it. Head for the Statue of Happiness, and bail out so you land on top of it. Inside the statue you’ll find a ladder that leads up to - well, go there and see for yourself.

What’s the emergency?

Low on health? Being hassled by street hoodlums? On fire? Just dial 911 on your handy cell phone, and a friendly dispatcher will send you your choice of emergency service vehicles right to your location. Pro Tip: pedestrians don’t like it when you steal a fire truck and spray them down with water. (Incidentally, you can call for backup from a police car computer, too.)
