Worst part of playing GTA is every mission you feel your a step closer to conclusion. I feel like im getting too far so i need to explore and do unimportant things.

Sparky19 · 16th May 2008, 09:24

finished the game last night, now to work on all the side missions to get 100% completion!

I've just bought his game. It better not be rubbish or else I'll cry.

BezsMaracas · 17th May 2008, 20:39

Well I think it's ace, wish there was more side missions like in San Andreas, but it's not like I miss them. Great fun just charging around in a car, not sure what else people were expecting from it.

Went back to it today after not playing it for a few days. It's quite entertaining in itself to just dick about but I thought there would be a lot more to do considering it's supposed to be a version of New York.

It does have a number of flaws that really irritate me though.

1) Traffic. Go to cross the road, look both ways, no cars. Step into the street - knocked down immediately.

2) Hand to hand combat. As shit as it ever was. Good job you don't really need to use it.

3) Socialising. Stop fucking phoning me Roman, you fat shit. Such a chore especially if you have to go drinking. It's quite funny the first time being drunk but after that it's annoying. The special abilities you gain from your "friends" aren't worth the hassle (so far).

Feel free to add your own.

BezsMaracas · 17th May 2008, 21:35

I've found that if someone phones you, just accept their request and then ring them straight back and cancel, you don't lose any reputation that way.

You can turn the phone calls off as well if they are really getting to you.

Good tip that, cheers.

I did turn my phone off today but I still got calls for socialising. I think it just stops you receiving phone calls relating to story missions.

Ah... didn't know that as I haven't tried it. That's the only reason I'd turn it off

Sam#1 · 18th May 2008, 01:58

I haven't played the game so can't comment, but people keep saying that it 'feels rushed', but wasn't it in production for like 4 years?

golden_blunder · 18th May 2008, 02:09

me and my housemate have developed our own sub game. Basically we kill everything that moves and try to get at least a 4 star wanted rating. Then the challenge is to try and escape. My mate did the best escape ever from a 5 star wanted. He killed all these swat guys, stole their truck, drove through everything and did a huge stunt jump over a building. That got him outside the radar. So now i have to try and get a 6 star rating and escape from that.

Also love doing completely random stuff like;

I ran along the train tracks today and fired a rocket at the first train that passed. Sadly it doesnt blow it off the tracks.

climbing the bridges, jumping off them the swimming out to the concrete supports. Use your sniper rifle from there to shoot random people. Try and get two kills with one shot (when people stand together to talk)

haven't tried it yet but gonna see if you can get inside the police station and kill them all. Have already gone on a shotgun rampage inside the hospital. Even shot the guys lying in beds

I've only had a bash on it, and I think it's very good. The driving's improved. . .and the graphics are very good despite what a few have been saying.
