brief interlude

So there's this video game, Just Cause 2, that's pretty much Grand Theft Auto except with 9000x more crazy violence and absurdities (you can use a grapple hook to attach a garbage truck to a helicopter, guys, seriously).

Anyway, my rl friends have been playing this for a while, first to get through the plot, and then to screw around with grappling

LOL... haven't played it, but you should see the Zero Punctuation review.

That is exactly everything I meant to say, but 9000x wittier! And to think, I spent fifteen minutes looking for absurd youtube clips.

Parachute-grappling is actually a form of travel. Like, when you grapple something ahead of you it gives your parachute speed, thus propelling your parachute forward and higher, wash rinse repeat. I think there's actually an achievement for crossing a country without setting foot on the ground.
