Fuck Carmen… she’s a neurotic ass ho anyway. I wouldnt date a bitch who speaks in the third person
Unless Rachael Ray started speaking in the third person.
I’m probably still a ways away from this final mission, i’ll admit I’ve had to retry more than a few missions though, so I’ll wind up re-starting this too. I really hated the mission where Manny wants you to drive by and shoot people, and I didn’t think too fondly of the strip club mission. The Manny follow the train mission was just fucking funny: “Stupid Manny making me follow stupid train!” it’s like the game expected you to fail that one. I don’t think I ever beat it even, my brother wound up doing it.
I think i’ve hated every single motorcycle chase. Actually, I know I specifically switched to a car for the first 2 chases and just ran the guy over/finished the chase, and for the rest I switched when they finally let me. I don’t think i’ve ever completed an entire motorcycle chase.
Okay, finally beat the other mission. Yesterday I failed it after 2-3 attempts, but today I got it on the first try. Its not really that hard…maybe just a little random.
I’ll do the assassin and vigilante missions, find the strangers, and maybe try for the stunt jumps/rats and then I think I’ll be done. The thought of doing everything over again from scratch for no other reason than doing it again…yeah, not so much.
Still, great game.
I’ve never ever gotten Carmen to give me a health boost. Bitch always telling me I gotta spend more time with her. I mean, shit stays at 100% with her. I take her to strip joints to make her horny and then I fuck her brains out. What more does Niko have to do?
easy… consistantly use jacob for weapons (save money)
do the delivery jobs steve n brucie (mad money)
an just pick up all that loot when ya kill people (mo mad loot)
MO MONEY MO MONEY MO MONEY!!!:smokin::smokin:
basically your rarely gonna spend loot in this game like that… if you do that 100% thingy your gonna tap more than 2 mill at my best estimate cause im at a mill 3 an some change an havent dont nothing but blow shyt up…
run her into a gas pump… fuck da stairs (which i did… just made her go home)…
hop in a fast car… fly towards that gas station in algonquin an leap out that bitch
BOOOOOOOM!!! SHAKA LAKA!!
that hoe got on my nerves… that shyt didnt work… i thought it did cause it said it but that shyt didnt work i was in a shoot out wit the mob… called dat hoe an she said ADD PRESSURE
BITCH IM SHOOTIN AT THE MOB… MY LIFE BAR IS BLINKIN RED AN U WANT ME ADD PRESSURE???
so i called the hoe back an she askin for more time
oh u dirty bitch
so i picked her ass up after i survived the mob cause just around the corner was a life pack… i put her ass in a sentinal an headed for the nearest shell gas station while she was askin me to buy her shyt… she wanted to be the bomb so the bitch got what she wished for…
dumb hoe… kiki is the bom though (kiss kiss nicko :lovin: ) i made sure that chick was at a steady 100%
Here’s one of the best review I’ve seen, and completely agree.
Morris’s [email
[details=Spoiler]critism@armoredcore.org[/email]]So, I’m somewhat more than halfway through the game now, and feel like I have a pretty good idea of what’s going on, and I honestly have to say that all these Perfect 10 scores floating around on review sites are bullshit.
Stone
Cold
Bullshit.
Now, don’t get me wrong, everything GTA4 does, it does brilliantly. The Gun combat system is VERY fine. The relationship maintenance aspect with all the different NPCs is cool, and the missions are great. The graphics too are, obviously, superfine. GTA4 has the best RAIN I’ve ever seen in a game, ever, and I live in Oregon, so I KNOW rain.
But
With as much freedom to roam that GTA4 gives you, there’s really no REASON to. Lots of other games of this type have lots of randomly generated side-missions you can get sucked into just driving around town. GTA4 has none of that, it’s always go the PLACE, call the GUY on your PHONE, etc. There’s no reason to drive anywhere instead of taking the cab and skipping the trip unless you just like to look around or kill people.
And what the heck am I supposed to do with all this money? Once you’ve got some good guns and nice clothes, what are you supposed to spend it on? I’ve got like 50k and nothing to do with it, makes me wonder why Nikko feels like he needs money so badly.
Look, Rockstar, you need to PAY ATTENTION to what your competition is doing. I know you feel like you mastered this whole free-roaming genre from the beginning, but other people are putting a lot of cool stuff in their games that YOU should be putting in YOURS.
I want to be able to get a freaking apartment to take these chicks to when I’m dating them.
I want to be able to BUY my own cars, and upgrade them so that they’re actually worth keeping instead of just carjacking one just like it whenever I need one.
I want to see shit going down randomly on the street that I can get involved in beyond just killing people and leaving their bodies for the paramedics.
I want my actions to have consequences. If I’m wandering around killing people randomly and blowing up cop cars with RPGs, I think eventually the cops might start RECOGNIZING me when I’m driving around and getting all up in my grill. If I’m wandering around killing off all the competition for a particular crime gang, other gangs should start to know my face and maybe try to drive-by me as I’m in the middile of my business.
ALL of this stuff are features that other free-roam games have had in the past. Sadly, Rockstar seems to be convinced that all it needs to succeed is hookers, and based on the scores they’ve managed to buy from pretty much every periodical in existance, they seem to be right. It’s a damn shame, because there are lot of BETTER games out there that people aren’t playing because “everybody knows GTA is the best one”. And sadly, as long as people keep buying this line of crap, there won’t be any reason for Rockstar to make a game that ACTUALLY deserves a 10.[/details]
side from that, I quitted playing the game 15hours into it cause I couldnt really get sucked into the main story w/ so much sidequests and crappy minigames =/. Online racing is pretty fun tho, so good job Rockstar on that part I guess.
Why buy cars…it’s called Grand Theft Auto.
Haha I actually think carjacking is fine since it only takes a couple of seconds. Its the others I find repetitive. Just the whole of it made me agree with him.
so i made kiki happy. trying to get kate to give it up. about to go on the first date with sobohoe. does kate ever give it up?
That review is pretty lame, imo. The guy obviously knows nothing about the random characters if he’s complaining about side quests and no reason to drive around.
I hated the fact that in GTA and Vice City, gangs would shoot at you as soon as they see you. It was retarded.
I never got that ungrateful whore to give me the womb. I stopped calling her ass like they stopped calling Phillip Michael Thomas for acting gigs.
Is the multiplayer still as fun as it was when the game first came out? I’m going to pick this game up today and just wanted to know if it was worth renewing my Live account for.
only when your playing with competent people.

What am I supposed to do with the stunt jumps? I’ve launched myself off the one at the Algonquin Bridge like 20 different times but I just keep getting “Not Good Enough.” :mad:
Also, and about that review…
my thoughts
[details=Spoiler]
This would be pretty retarded IMHO. There’s one friend mission where you get a 1-star wanted level if the cops so much as see you…made me realize just how many random cops were walking/driving around. If Rockstar had implemented this you wouldn’t be able to walk down the street without having a constant wanted level and needing to always outrun the cops.
Having people shoot at you at random times is also dumb. Suppose you’re on a date with Kiki, and some of the Ancelotti’s spot you and start shooting, and Kiki gets killed in the process. Realistic, sure, but that would also be a major pain in the ass.
If you commit a crime in public, even if there are no cops around, people will phone it in on their cell phones and you get a wanted level. I thought that was an excellent way of handling it.
GTAIV may not be perfect, and there are plenty of areas where you can think “Well, it would have been cool if they’d…” But if you look at the scope of the game, and the sheer amount of detail and attention given to things…its hard not to want to give the game a 10.[/details]
if the game was “realistic” it would be about 3 minutes long. Get off boat, piss off Van, get killed by hired hitmen, corrupt cops, car accidents. If you survive longer than that, get raided by the police at “safehouse” if not by one of a million other people as listed already. Fail to steal any cars because most people will keep driving unless you’ve got the gun out, and even if you do, probably still speed by, or you’d never be able to get out of the huge accident from people trying to avoid you (and probably getting killed by a car running into you).
Nah, realism would be really stupid. Who made that complaint?
Now thats how sandbox games are supposed to be played
last mission fucking sucks
An idea that I had…
idea
Spoiler
So, Little Jacob is a pretty big part of the last mission, right? …What if he were dead? Would he just magically re-spawn? Or would the game use some other character in his place? I have a save file before the choice, so I tried calling him up for guns, drinking, pool, anything - he was unavailable. I also tried Brucie and Roman, same deal. Is it even possible to off your friends before the final mission?
Also, I tried to “dump” Carmen by taking her for a heli ride and bailing, letting her crash into a skyscraper, but Niko ended up dying in the process as well. Is it possible to jump out onto the skyscraper rooftops?
This works in single player. Easy rolled over achievement.:rock:
