    What the fuck. I'm at 65% and story mode is over. I didn't realize killing the pigeons, meeting 14 strangers, and all the other bullshit were part of getting up to 100% because when I did Jacob's drug runs and shit I didn't notice it add to my progress. Now whats the point of going back for all that stuff I should have done while I was still doing the main missions. Way too short of a game, with the same shootouts in different places over and over. Not Call of Duty 4 short, but way shorter than San Andreas.
    Once in a while you can get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    Besides all the side-quest stuff (pigeons, cars, vigilante) that is pretty much it.
    Shoot pool or go bowling ;)

    Is anyone up for some Free Roam? I always end up playing with a bunch of people who end up shooting each other. It could be so much more fun - helicopter deatchmatches, skyscraper shootouts, etc.

    Anyone interested? I'm sure Pearl Jam fans make good company.

    I don't really mind them while I'm driving...they don't seem any more annoying than the other GTA games. What pisses me off are all the times I get run into when I'm on foot!!!
    Christ, I try to cross the street and they don't even make an attempt to slow down! I'll have a little health left, cross the street, get taken out by a car and die. Fuck!

    They aren't any more annoying than the other GTA games cause they were just as bad then ;)
    I've had entire rows of cars suddenly change lanes. The lane changing is extremely annoying, especially when they just go back to their original lane right away.
    And stopped traffic on a highway? Oy.
    And yeah, getting run into all the time on foot.

    On one of the tailing missions a random car decided to do a 3 point turn in the middle of the junction and then just stopped, creating a massive traffic jam that my target got stuck in. So I had to get out of my car, go to the stopped car, hijack it, move it out the way and then get back to my car, all the while making sure the target didn't see me. :rolleyes:


    Got onto the interview mission, first mission I'm stuck on! Surprised it's taken so long to get a challenging mission to be honest. Usually comes a lot earlier, but then again there are less cars on the road and less pedestrians around so driving missions are a hell of a lot easier.

    Hahahaha, yeah...when you get stuck in a traffic jam on a bridge with 2 or three stars that is pretty damn frustrating!

    The interview mission isn't as tough as you might think.
    This is what I did.

    SPOILER Below (for those not there yet...look away!)













    If you kill the guy with a silenced weapon it won't trigger the police response (or not right away). Once you do kill him, shoot out his office window and hop out onto the street. Grab a car and get the hell outta there. Much faster and it works perfectly! If you go back through the office you will have a big gun battle and lots of cops to avoid.

    I took the 'through the building' route on that one, and they didn't stand a chance. No hard missions yet.

    I got out fine but couldn't shake the cops. There were no cars around so I had to take a cop car, which flipped over for NO reason (about the 3rd time it's happened to me now). So I was pretty much a sitting duck for the cops. I'll try it again some other time.

    Michelle is starting to annoy me. I bought a $1000 suit and she said she prefered the cheap jacket from Russia Store!!!!!!! Stupid women :mad:

    The second part of this post reminded me of another aspect of the game.
    Let me know if Michelle ever does anything funny to you, and I'll elaborate ;)

    I guess I got off lucky! It was so funny though. I could barely stand up, as I got to the car I turned around and this car goes plowing into her. She went flying and it said "So n' so is DEAD". I was rolling on the ground laughing after that.
    Funny thing is, I think she's really dead because she hasn't come back.

    Oh, it was Packie's sister.
