Hey with the amount of press GTA is getting (every morning/latenight/news/entertainment show), do you think wii Fit will get the same level of full court press coverage?

Spot chick in hooker garb, pull over. Honk horn. Press LB to cycle through choices.

My first attempt, I accidentally hit a pedestrian while trying to pull into an alley. I thought we were alone, paid her full price for a lay, and the ped I had hit suddenly yanked me out of the car. The hooker called me a limp dick and tried to run off with my cash.

Man fuck No. 1 and
the chase the train mission for Manny. Any tips?
Click to expand...

For No. 1 just start slowly and let them wreck in front of you and then pass.

For Manny just use your map. You should be able to see the tracks and predict where it's going.

Mannys mission where you follow the train?

So frustrating.

Look at where the track is going and get ahead of it from time to time. If you try to stay behind it the whole time you'll end up smashing into stuff when the track turns don't coincide with the street layout. Also, don't use the chase camera. I've yet to find it useful in any type of land based vehicle.

some random green guy appears on my map. who is he? what do i need to do when i see him?

Just walk up to him, it's a little green arrow right? The missions are usually pretty short for those but they still give you a bit of cash.

I'm stuck at 6.49%

I go on dates with michel, I go with roman to places. 10 Hours of this, and the game story doesn't evolve.
I searched gamefaqs for tutorial, and their experience is different.

For anybody having problems loading their PS3 save file. Go into the settings bar and select "Network Settings." In here disable your internet connection and then run the game again. I looked up the problem earlier and this worked for me. Good luck.

edit: beaten.

So I had a three stars and was in the process of trying to evade the LCPD. There were a couple of cops on my tail as I turned onto another street when all of a sudden these latin dudes started to shoot at the cops. I took cover and watched at a safe distance across the street. It was a crazy shoot out, with one cop getting taken out, but a scared motorist ran over and killed one of the gang members. After that I felt I had to help the remaining gangster with the last cop. After that the dude just took off running. I was like WTF so began to chance after him. To my amazement he ran up to a parked car, kicked out the window, hotwired it and sped off. I quickly tried searching for a car to follow but was taken out by the copter.


Anothr cool thing occured when I had 4 stars. A cop was giving chase in a vehicle, when I thought my car could jump this curb. I was wrong as the curb was a bit too steep. I hit the curb at nearly full speed and went flying through the winshield, over an embankment and landed head first on a dock. Like half a second after I landed the fuckin cop's body comes flying over me, hits the dock HARD, and rolls into the water. Injured, he made a gesture and gasp and then drowned.


Amazing fucking game.

So...how much "like" do I need off Brucie to get his special ability? I'm at 80% now, with 100 for respect.

*edit* lolz, he just called me. So yeah, get over 80% I guess, for future reference.

I was riding the subway, got off at east park station, no subway station. I could see the streets and buildings above me, but none of the station geometry was there. I ran around for a couple minutes and it eventually showed up

This answer might be lost amongst the previous pages of this thread, but does anyone know how to stop or get around the game crashing? I own a PS3 40gb, and don't fancy deleting my save-games :(

Relating to Kate, and the...subject matter in the thread that was just locked:

Does Kate always die? I went out drinking with her for the third night in a row, trying to open those sealed legs, and just got the message "Kate has been killed" when leaving the bar. From what I saw there was nothing that could possibly have killed her, but looking behind me I couldn't even see a body. Is it just a fact that she will die, and the game just took some excuse to make it happen?

Sorry if this is covered elsewhere, but it's kinda hard when you search for Kate in the search and end up reading about a spoiler regarding Roman :(
