The founder of the site. Writing about Grand Theft Auto since 2003, back then with a dictionary on the desk, waiting for Vice City. Still a Vice City fan at heart, and can't wait to go back.

We're announcing another giveaway, whose not-so-secret aim is to grow the community and give it some direction. The prize can only be taken by public figures of the local forum with a clean record (according to the current San Andreas Police Department files).
True, the big favourite, MTA:SA, is finished, and to the joy (or sorrow) of many, all we got was racing. Those who were only playing around out of boredom can really be happy now, because the other promising mod, SA:MP, is in the works.
GYUFo has already told you the forum is open, but the news didn't set off the huge wave of registrations we were hoping for. Right now the forum has 33 registered users, and I hope more of you will take the plunge after this.
After the successful launch, the MTA team will soon delight us with the latest 1.1 multiplayer client. Race 1.1 will be released in the next few days with a few new features and important bug fixes.
James Woods, who played Mike Toreno in San Andreas, wasn't exactly happy about the "hidden sex simulator". He claimed that had he known the game contained sexual scenes, he would have thought twice about carrying on with the job.
The latest version of edisoncarter's beauty, Cheat Device, has seen the light of day! What's new in the program:
Grand Theft Auto has come under attack from many directions, including politicians, police and parents. This time it's SWOP-USA (Sex Workers Outreach Project USA) that wants to drag poor old GTA through the mud.
Last year, U2 frontman Bono teamed up with John Riccitiello, a former president of EA, to set up a new development company called Elevation, which promptly bought up the not exactly small Pandemic Studios and the Bioware team. Last year they reportedly had their eye on Eidos too, but that deal never happened, since SCI skilfully snatched it up after quite a fight.
By now almost everything has been restored, apart from 1-2 files. Those broken links will be fixed soon. The forum posts were lost, and I hope you'll get back into the swing of things as soon as possible and fill it up with useful information again.
Hi everyone! It looks like we managed to get things together today and the site is up and running, though not at a hundred percent.
I'm happy to announce that the coding of the articles section was finished around 2 this morning. The only thing still missing is that it hasn't been put into operation yet. It's expected to launch today, and there will be no shortage of material thanks to comrade GYUFo. - *right, GYUFo? :P*
Thanks to our increased storage capacity, we've been able to launch our web hosting service. FTP access comes with every package.
