I haven't figured it out yet. A later mission must unlock their purpose.

It is, you have to link your game via friendcode with the social club and then you can enter the code on the social club website in your pc browser. With your next sync ingame you get your money and stuff I think.basik said:did anyone else pre-order from gamestop to get the free money and guns? I just got my package from ups and I dont see where the special code or whatever is supposed to be. There is a gta social club card and code but I'm not sure if thats it.

Diseased Yak said:Oh dear :lol Just randomly ran onto two crazy things in a row (side mission spoilers):
Jacked a random parked car andit started a mission where I drove a guy around and we both shot marked cars until they exploded. I only managed a Bronze medal in it. Awesome stuff! Totally happened at random when I jacked a car.
Another happened when I was driving along and saw a blue man-shaped icon on my map. I went over and talked to the guy andhe wanted me to drive him to a porno movie tryout. Huang goes "I've done some awful shit, but I'm not gonna be your fluffer!" Turns out I just had to drive the limo while the banged like 10 girls at once in the back. Was hilarious, the limo rocking the whole way and tons of moans emanating from the back seat.
This game is bad ass. The drug dealing really makes it, though. I hope to god they put that in GTAV.

* Hard to use both controls and stylus at the same time
* No online multiplayer

Duck Amuck said:I like gtads but I don't like the gimmicky use of stylus controls. For instance, the only way to change weapons is to go through the menu via stylus, and it's really dumb because you should be able to do that without using the stylus. This slows combat down to a halt.
Secondly, when ever you jack a car sometimes you have hotwire it it's really cumbersome moving from d-pad and face buttons to taking out your stylus to hot wire the car. Of course you can use your thumb but that's not ideal either.
Most of this would not be a problem if you were given the option to use traditional controls, like for instance, when using the screw driver move the d-pad in a clock wise and counter-clockwise motion.
Am I doing something wrong?
Finally, I don't like how the cars look in this. In GTA1 and 2 all the cars looked completely distinct from one another. Due to the art style in Chinatown Wars, I can't tell any of the cars apart.

Duck Amuck said:I know, my brother.
I'm so glad they brought back taxi fares, ambulance missions and other stuff. I'm addicted to exploring like I am with every GTA game and I'm being rewarded for exploring too.
Mistouze said:They also brought back the Carnage missions (might be called Rampage in english) where you have a certain time to kill as many people as possible to rack up combos. Those were in the 2d installments but never made it in the 3D ones. Those are triggered when you pick up skulls item, stumbled on one after a drug deal.
bdouble said:They were in GTA3. Only thing I'm bothered by though is so far I've only had them where I get a flamethrower.

pinkbunny said:Wait, WHAT? Are you kidding me? No online play? The original GTA was the first game I ever went online with on my PC! It was an AWESOME experience, simply AWESOME.
How could they leave that out!
*continues to earnestly wait for my copy to arrive*

Graphics Horse said:the favourites have an X next to them, same as emails.
Same here, although I use my finger instead sometimes. The only stylus bits seem to be slashing the door lining and tattooing.
I actually got busted whilst I was slashing a drugs van, and lost about 20,000k worth of heroin! It's nice how the world keeps going during the touch screen sections.

Rated-Rsuperstar said:After spending a little bit of time with the game. Controls are what I hate the most. Being left handed makes simple stuff like changing the radio a chore.
Do it! I just got it from gamefly, played for all of twenty minutes and was so blown away I called both of my brothers (big GTA faas) and told them to run out and grab it. It's that impressive.LiquidMetal14 said:May be buying this today. Keep taunting me with the impressions!!!!
Lavpa Jasai said:Ok gaffers, my brother and I have a 15 hour car ride and were looking for a good multiplayer game for the road.
If we both got copies of the game would we have a good experience?
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars features an online component that allows you to instant message your friends and trade information and items. You can send and receive map waypoints for hidden items and special locations to your friends, and trade weapons, money or street product to enhance each others single player experience.
Head-to-Head and Co-op multiplayer is available locally via Wi-Fi and features 6 different modes to play. See below for details on three of them, with more information coming soon.
Race
Compete against your friend in a no-holds-barred race to the finish line on one of 20 different courses scattered around Liberty City. In the Death Race variation of this mode you earn laps by killing your opponent instead of racing, and upgrades are littered throughout the course to help you gain a competitive edge over your opponent.
Stash Dash
Steal the van, deliver it, and stash the cash. Sounds simple but your opponent wants the same van and the same cash. Once youve taken control of the target van, you need to get it back to the safe house, all the while being chased and smashed by your opponent. The more the van is damaged, the less cash you get on delivery.
Defend the Base
Team up in one of 8 co-operative scenarios and defend your turf against waves of enemy gang members. Enemies will attack specific targets, such as vehicles, and each wave will become progressively harder to eliminate.
