The strip club seems to go a bit further with successive dances - on my 3rd one I got past the two ladies show (same as 2nd one) - the ladies then left and Nico was just sat there - it wasn't frozen, he was still animating, but I couldnt move him and I couldn't do anything ... seemed to be a bug ..... anyone got past the 3rd dance in the strip club?

Hmm must be different on the PS3, its one girl for two dances then its two girls on the 3rd one and thats it. after the third one everyone leaves.

Getting to the point where it's more fun to steal a car from the Car Showroom near Alderney than to complete the missions. I like stealing one of the cars on the 2nd floor, as you can drive out the window and straight on to the open road with minimal damage and usually get away quite easily! The pigeons are seemingly easy because of the red glow under them, like the weapons do that you pick up.

Should I be insulted or flattered

I'm loving this at the moment , Ive done 39% so far . Ive only found 1 Pigeon so far ! as DJ says , steeling the nice fast cars from the showroom is cool . I want to drive a lorry with a trailer ! ive stole a lorry without a trailer , ive seen many trailers about but you cant connect them together .

[lemonjon]

so my question is what would you do?

I have the game, i have finished the story, the side mission i have done aload of and are getting abit sh1te, the online is very bad, not game wise but cant get a connection for a game.

So i got the game for 35 quid and i can trade for 40 quid, so i can make 5 quid on game i have finished.

My only problem is i like the game, and if online worked then great, I have waited so long for game and i think it was bit short and easy (apart from a few missions)


I could use the money and get Bad company which is out very soon.

what u think folks

[GotaFancy?]

trade it in for £40 and buy a new version in a month or two for £20

What about Condemned 2? Reviews are ok, looks decent enough but not sure, never played the first one.

[Nade]

As for trading it in though the missions may be short (i'm only half way through) i'll never get bored of driving at uber high speed down the long strip on the 2nd island going over the ramp and just smashing into things and blowing things up Explosions look mint on this i think.

Just managed to do that old hospital mission at the 4th attempt. Planned my escape route, just legged it through the building to the nearest vehicle which was shot to pieces within seconds, somehow managed to get away but ended up trapped in a mini park with only 3 tyres left . Luckboxed my way out of the area, then somehow got across to the other island and to a pay&spray with only 3 tires and 3* wanted level the whole way

Another funny thing i found the other day was when i slightly crashed into a normal looking car on the first island and all of a sudden two dudes got out with AK47's and shot my to pieces Must have been under cover cops or mafioso!

[AJ]

Had problems doing the resuce mission for cousin roman, took about 10 attempts, and another 4 to do the strip club job. difficulty is certainly stepping up.

I have a choice to make, Playboy X or Dwayne. I have over $20k in cash so money isn't that much of an issue.

Advice ?

[Nade]

AJ, think i made the 'wrong' choice in who i picked, nothing came good of it at all, nothing bad came of it but was expecting lots of money a pad etc but nothing....

But not gonna say who i picked

[AJ]

I'm might do a save game and try both.

My inital feel is I should hang out with Dwanye and execute Playbox X

How pi$$ed off am I

Not played for over a week due to work/family, had a couple of hours this afternoon. Done the Hospital mission then a couple of others and was on my ay to another when it all crashed with the "disc is unreadable" error message .

I think it all auto saved before then (it fcuking better have) but still pi$$ed me off.

Strange really, the odd couple of chances I have had to play it last week I could'nt be bothered with it , almost as if I was bored with it but todays session got me right back into it

[AJ]

I've done the bank job, I made it harder than it needed to be by using grenades that backfired once or twice. Stick to the fundamentals and it's not that hard. Used a cop car for the getaway at the end.

Executed Playboy X, I knew it was the harder mission, but money isn't an issue and I wanted the safe house.

Just opened up Aldernay, the entire map is mine

[Carl]

I just killed playboy last night also, Ive not been on it for over a week.

Mate of mine was telling me about the prossies and the different *cough services you can get, I spent ages driving round beeping my horn and eventually I managed to pick up a right dirty black tart, fat as fook also. I had to drive somewhere dark so i drove under a bridge and the options came up regarding the services when the next thing I know this woman comes over and drags me out my car saying about getting back to the wife

The pross ran off so I shot the woman and spent ages driving round again until I gave up.

Im gonna try again and go for the whole deal.

[GotaFancy?]

There's loads of prostitutes near the garage where you deliver the cars (on Bohan)

[Carl]

cheers mate, I did remember once seeing street full of them but couldn't remember which street.

cheers Time for a *cough drive round me thinks.

I don't get any options when I pick up a 'ho. Must be removed on the aussie version, heard a few things where removed.

Over 40% now, did the helicoptre stuff, working with Ray and couple of the irish fellas

[GotaFancy?]

We get 3 options - a $20, a $50 and a $70 option - it doesn't say what the options are for, though it's pretty obvious from the animation

Anyone managed to bed Kate? I'm up to 100% with her but cannot get invited in

[buzzabouttheplace]

I completed the game last night. I won't spoil it for anyone so feel free to read any posts i make. Needless to say there is now a hole in my life. Is playing it online worth it ?



I must point out it's the storyline i've completed. It says 71%. Given the path i took at the end, it kinda feels pointless doing much else. Shootin pigeons and the races don't appeal to me. What else is there ?


Also, i only used one file to save the game, so does this mean i can't go back to a stage in the game where i make a decision. Would i have to start the game from scratch ? Message me if you know the answer anyone.

[AJ]

yes, thats what it means.

I have about 12 save games. I shot playbox and Dwayne for instance
