Even though I just beat it last night, I just now found out the Hulk Hogan voiced Angel.

I know, he was very restrained. I thought he did a great job.

The success of others absolutely infuriates me.
Wait what. I thought he was Kill Bane. I stupid.

I was shocked more-so because outside of the ring, he's very anti-violent, and SR3 glorifies violence in its dialogue a shit-ton.
Odd that you didn't notice until the credits rolled.
I thought it was obvious upon his characters first appearance.
Fun over the top game, something seems rushed, could have benefited from a little more time in the oven....
This game doesn't really have oscar worthy gameplay. I just had to do like four missions in a row with Zimos that were all atrocious. Drive him around, protect him while he stands there and does nothing, get in car again.
Nothing has been like the first mission.

Yeah some of that mid game stuff isn't great but don't worry, it picks up again. You are just doing story missions and not activities, right?

I don't know but
the green gas is still in the air in that area
I think the bridges that are up count as jumps you need for 100% completion? I could be wrong though.

Finally wiped out all the gangs and hit 100%. As a last hurrah, I dressed up as Killbane and flew a jet to the highest altitude possible then jumped out.
I did not survive.

"Big air" jumps, as well as barnstorming, do not count towards percentage but they are activities you can do if you want to go beyond 100% completion.

That mission - which never comes back again - was the only one that felt too over-the-top to me. It was all "really?".
There's a random call for a survival wave that totally gives it away. Sucks for me because I heard it before I ever met the character.

No one man should have all that power.

Driving is pretty terrible without an analog stick. Not sure what the solution is because you would probably still want a m/kb for aiming. I ended up using both.
I tried with a 360 controller and a mouse/keyboard and I like mouse/keyboard better. The driving's forgiving enough that I didn't miss the analog sticks too much, and the shooting is much better with a mouse.
Yep. More games should do that. As overused as it is when Power started to play during the second or third mission it just put a big smile on my face.
Using licensed music in gta type games is nothing new?

Yeah, the rare moments when those songs kick in are... so great. SO great.
I am 100% positive he didn't say anything to the contrary of what you're saying.

No it's not new but it's not done nearly as well as it is in this game.
This fucking game
Just finished it, it definitely has terribad moments (the activities filling in for missions) but when the missions shine, they fucking shine. I played co-op and even the bugs made me laugh, especially when my teammate parachuted as we both ejected from the helicopter at the same time and I got knocked on his 'chute, causing a death and a hilarious slow descent with a still as a rock body that outlasted the death timer
Now I may need to rerun it to see the alternative cutscenes... or just hit Youtube I suppose. The Apoca-Fist is godlike <3

The Adult Swim channel in particular was brilliant. They nailed the Howard Stern-esque host pat.

so I want this game ASAP for some reason. Where is it cheapest in Australia? Greenmangaming have it for $40USD. Do they do steam code downloads or retail copy delivery?

I more meant will they give me a code or do I have to wait for a box
They'll give you a code. GMG is a digital download site.

Favorite choice of music has to be the penultimate mission when
STAGs theme is also really good. It plays the first time you get pursued by them.
I Need A Hero started playing. I ran through the STAG and Luchadore gunfire, shrugging that shit off like a boss jumped into the water and swam to the statue to save my homies. It was some heroic, Superman type shit.
Also the freefall in Air Steelport when Just For Today plays

One of my favorite parts in the game. THAT SONG MAKES THAT SEQUENCE.
As much as I want to continue upgrading my character, there's really nothing left in the game. I NEED MOAR. AJLDkm;baklfgnmgfkl;sdkl;gnjio

I'm pretty sure you can taunt Saints gang members and it counts for it, just like the Love/Hate relationship trophy?
come on dude, you're insulting the dude who voiced killbane. his va was top notch.

Awesome, that's a week from now!
It felt like something out of a John Candy movie, I loved it.
Just tried it, unless it only works with specific NPCs, taunting unfortunately doesn't count towards the challenge. I would have been able to finish the challenge long ago myself but the thing is that if you find a group of enemy gang members and taunt one of them, they all become hostile, after that taunting doesn't work on the rest.
Here's a mini-trailer for all of you about Genkibowl VII (bigger one coming soon): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siBhtWd0cq4
..and some initial screenshots as well:
Coming January 17th!

Looks awesome. Any word on when the CheapyD DLC is coming too?

Cheapy D won an auction for charity to be put in the game, and apparently it got fleshed out into a full homie rather than just a random pedestrian and was not ready for the initial release. He will be released for free in the future (as is the CAG way) and it was mentioned on the CAGcast roughly a month ago? No one seems to have any details though, and this is the first time I've even heard it mentioned.

You have to do each activity once as part of the main campaign. I think there are 9 or 10 total? Just get through them, the rest is definitely worth it.

For some reason I've recently started getting this song stuck in my head whenever I'm flying through Steelport at night or driving in the rain.
Any chance we'll ever get an option to allow custom soundtracks on PS3?
oh god i love this song
