I robbed a corner store. I wonder if I do it again if I'll get busted...

I mugged a guy, got $3200. Then I was cornered by the cops, was shot and killed.

This looks like a game I tried out a while ago. There really isn't much to it. There are a number of different crimes you can commit by selecting from a very short list and hitting the "go" button. Sometimes it works and you gain money, other times you get caught and go to jail. You generally stay in jail for between 2 and 5 minutes and then you get out and continue on your way. No real risk or reward here.

You can also kill other players by buying a few thousand bullets, hiring a guy to find them, and then hit the "kill" button. If you have a greater number of bullets than he had, you kill him. Someone in his "family" will get a message that you killed him, and someone outside of his "family" will get the same message, so there will probably be some retaliation.

The worst part about the game is every message posted anywhere will way over-use the word 'respect'. They use it as a greeting, and a warning, and in just about any other circumstance you can think of. The game creators obviously understood the value of respect in these types of crime organizations, but I really don't think they understand what the word means.

The game is very limited, and pretty pointless.
