The last Jacob mission doesn't give you a crap car to drive in, but a cool van with the jamaican flag colours. The mission itself is taking out a couple of guys at the destination. Have you done that one yet? That was the final one for me.

I searched this thread and I must suck at it or this hasn't been asked:

I try and go to multiplayer with the phone and it says my account doesn't have the right permissions to play? I have a gold account and I'm 25yrs old.. I cant think of anything else that would be stopping me.

fuck :( yeah I only had half my health with no armor so it didn't take long for them to get me. That was such an adrenaline rush, I wish I would've made it in my first go :(

Anyone have tips for the first mission from
Gerry McReary, where you have to chase a motorcycle on your motorcycle. The mission is "I Need Your Clothes, Your Boots, and Your Motorcycle". Dude is so fucking fast and maneuverable, he turns down all these narrow side streets and makes sharp turns and shit....
It's hard enough just following him and getting anywhere close to him.

yeah I got that one but iirc there's still an encounter before you make your way up... at least I remember losing health between the pack and the rise to the surface.

Why don't cheats work on Three Leaf Clover? I tried removing my star rating, didn't work :mad:

Because I'm sick of having to make the drive to the bank over and over. I've died three times on it now and it takes about 15 minutes for me to get the subway every time and mess up and die.

Go to the dating site, set up a date with LawyerChick. After like two dates you can call her any time to get rid of your wanted status.

As good as a cheat, but legit.

Just focus on manuevering. If you take it slow he will lag a bit. Pretty sure that's a shoot em down mission though, so uh... shoot em down.

I beat it on my first try, and I suck. You really don't need cheats to beat it, trust me.

Go pick up some armor ahead of time, and take your time, take lots of cover. You'll do it fine.

Resorting to cheats is... :/

just dated her a couple of times. She likes me up to 85%, but no perk yet. She's cool though, unlike uptight no fun Kate

There is a video showing how to beat this here (2nd one). I was using cover and trying to take it slow, ended up just getting swarmed from behind that way. After watching that video I changed my strategy and just kinda stood in the open and shot em all dead really quickly. That worked for me anyway....

Oh and stock up on supplies before that mission. Body armor & Uzi w/ full ammo is what I recommend (you get a gun but it'll probably run out of ammo before the mission ends).

Yeah, I've finished it without cheats too. The missions aren't really frustrating, unlike the San Andreas missions.

Although I'm dying for new cheats to come out. The current cheats are boring. But damn, it took San Andreas months before new cheats arrived. That sucks. Can't someone just hack the cheats...

Small problem...I went on a date with her, and she hated me. Possibly because I took her to that shitty Italian place.

Can I try dating her again?

100% question!

Just beat the game in 19 hours playtime. I'm going for 100% now but I was wondering, do I
need 100% for both Kate and Michelle? I can't exactly go back and do those. And if I have to go back and restart the game then I'm not gonna bother.

I have the 360 version, and I can't figure something out, hope someone can help.

How do you just aim your gun while driving? I know LB fires and let's you aim, but certainly there must be some way to just aim and not waste ammo, or did they stupidly leave this simple feature out?

Wow, missions have been annoying me lately. Kill a bunch of people, get your target, oh noez lose the police! Then repeat...having to get out of a 3 star circle after you were just in a hard shootout is making me less willing to do more missions but the story is the only thing really keeping me going.

Yes, because it's REALLY hard to get rid of three stars -_-

Holy shit, it's as if people WANT this game to end.

But it's just shitty how if you die in that area (which can totally be something out of your control) you have to do the whole thing again.

I hate missions involving the police. I like my shit to be clean.

To repeat myself: is there any way to re-date a girl that had no interest in you after the first date? I want this Lawyer chick now.

She's not on the site at the minute. I guess it must be some kind of rotation.

I'll just date some other chick and leave her unsatisfied. Should be hard to pull off.

Well, when you're near death and need to scrounge for a car and can't find one, yeah it's annoying. Chances are you'll get a crappy car, making it 10x harder to get away than it needs to be.

I AM GENETICALLY SUPERIOR.

Fucking (BARELY) landed that Helicopter. But damn Brucie is stingy. Still at 56% after Copts AND a strip club.

My GTA4 Moment Of Amazement For The Day:

So, I got these two safehouses and they're not THAT far from one another, so I decide to take the subway to the other one. This is my first time down there, so I'm already blown away by the atmosphere of THAT. So I get off, look to my left, oh. It's Lincoln Center. Look to my right, well, looks like my Safehouse is on the other side of Middle Park.

So I walk there, through the park.

Remember how I said Algonquin wasn't as cool or interesting as Bohan or Broker or Dukes?

Laffs.

I keep going to the page and getting the same 9 girls, just in a different order.

Benjamin, it took me ages to get Brucie to like me. Just collect the cars he wants, win races and take him on boat and Helicopter rides.
