Probably Started going missions for Francis, Packie and Dwayne, U.L. Paper is getting me to do things as well. I'm still stuck on Brucie's street race though - same thing happened in San An as well. It took me fucking ages to get past Ceaser's race.

Just keep going until your driving improves, all that you need to beat them is the ability to get into first then its plain sailing.

Does anyone reckon they'll make 100% before the deadline?

This is pretty much the only computer game I have interest in these days.
Questions before I consider bothering to shell out for a console just for this game.
It's marketed as being pretty gritty. Is the humour still a big focus? This is most important to me.
Is the music still top quality?

Re: GTAIV (PS3, Xbox 360) Chat - Spoilers

Humor and satire by the bucketload. It seems much more pervasive then in Vice City and San An, but it doesn't dominate situations or the storyline, which does remain pretty gritty. The plot in general is better then San An.

Music is amazing. List of tracks on Wikipedia.

Iggy Pop, Carl Bradshaw and various other music figures are dammed good as presenters. The news service is also dammed funny.

Wired is compiling a list of GTA IV easter eggs.

Warning: Link may contain spoilers and cheat codes (there are only three up just now, two of which are sort of cheat codes)

If your American and signed up to the RockStar Social Club, then it'll send you a link (via IRL email) to buy the song off Amazon as well.

This game is stunning.

Multiplayer last night, guy terrorising everyone in a chopper, I got up really high and sniped him in the face, causing the chopper to crash into heavy traffic. Utter carnage, amazing.

Also, whistling for a cab on ps3 is done with L1, but only when a cab is in sight. Then HOLD tri as you approach the cab to get in as a passenger, tapping will just make Nico jack it.

Aye, I was chasing some poor wee pleb in a motor in team deathmatch for about 5 minutes up and down the motorways.

I still haven't tried Multiplayer yet.

Thought I was getting somewhere in this game. Looked at my progress. Just over 20%. Blimey
