Francis. Nobody blackmails QRDL! This is far from ending though - later you have a choice between striking a deal with Dimitri or hunting him down. I like my meals served cold. |

Everyone I've spoken to has killed the pig...there is something lovable about Irish smack addicts. I was disappointed to get to the end but only because it was the end. |

57 hours. I took my time indeed. |

The end is a bit jaggy imo. MINOR SPOILERS: I'm supposed to decide between money and revenge? Where are my options to choose neither or both? Anyway great game though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
jaggy? in what way? I went with revenge, I am going to go with money next time, although I guess the outcome is exactly the same as the final bit is in the tv adverts. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
but after all the 250,000 grand you get from the bank job, do you even get that much more in a single job again? (i wouldn't know yet) |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|

No. Unfortunately money is a total non-factor in this game. It almost feels like you make more in that one mission than you could ever spend in-game. |

I was so dissapointed in it because the game had managed to hide it's underlying structure before. No obvious story progression triggers or overly forced choices. This may be the only game I've seen to succeed in this, except for the last mission. If those triggers/choices become to apparent it destroy's the whole experience for me. It changes from living story to programmed procedure. |

I agree, and on top of that, the outcome is entirely predictable if you choose revenge. However, this still stands as the best in the series. The charactes, the dialogs, great majority of the story, all that finally reached a respectable level. Taxis, internet, TV... AND they dropped all of the unnecessary and outright childish (IMO) stuff like tattoos, haircuts, pimping your rides.... Even the dating has a real impact since your girls have some special abilities. Kiki, the Manhattan lawyer for example. She saved my ass from police twice. One of those times included me trying to drive in narrow streets avoiding police cars and in the same trying to call her. I felt like in real life when you drop a phone in the car dusing conversation. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And I agree, the bank job should get you 100K the most. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Fuck off. Why should those Irish bastards get to keep more, I put my fucking life on the line for that money, 250000 is the least I expect, especially when those mick pricks almost got me shot by the college preppy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
A leat 62,5K should go to the family of the guy who didn't make it, innit? But what can you expect from such an easter european scum. |

Which was the toughest mission for you? I got frustraded during "Smackdown". My abilities on the PS3 controller are so so and this fight in close quarters ended up badly at least 4 times. And FUCK, the buildup was so long and unskippable! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
i don't remember what the mission was called, but it was the one with Elizabeta's coke, and you had to escape the N.O.O.S.E. filled building. I believe SOBHOE lives up to her name |
||||||||
|

hung out to dry, but that was only because my tv is by the window and it was daytime and I couldn't see anything I mean the screen was just black (it was before i thought to adjust the in game brightness and contrast). Other than that I thought it was all a bit easy. pulseclock on that mission I just ran for it, the body armour and full health meant I got out of the building and into the car without firing one shot :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I remember that one. Took me a couple of times too, but that was only because you said it was hard, haha. And yeah, I seemed a bit easier than the previous instalments, especially the mass killing missions. Though this might be just thanks to the coddling auto-target. |
||||||||

I just unlocked Manhattan last night, been doing everything but missions. In Hung out to dry I killed every single cop except the ones on the street. I just took the closest cop car. The cop was next to me firing point blank before I got in. I thought it was easy. The cover system really works great most of the time. The biggest difficulty so far has been when you can't see what's going on on the TV screen, like ecnadniarb said. I'm playing on an old 28" fat screen. I've had more trouble with the really easy missions than the big shoot-outs because of this. The one where you follow a dealer up into an apartment and have to kill everyone inside was a bitch. I was like, WTF where did he go? Not that I'm complaining about the sunshine outside :) |
||||||||

|
I remember Hung out to dry being a chase mission starting in a laundromat, but I might be wrong. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That is it. It was when I got out the back and he drives off. I couldn't see a damn thing. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The Snow Storm, the one with the coke in the old hospital. The only mission I had to try more than twice I think. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Haha yeah I meant Blow your cover. They're only about 20 missions apart.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

The hardest mission for me so far has been one for Derrick where you have to grab a police car, go and follow a guy from a burger shot to his house then kill him and his mates. Every time I fired the first shot the cops were right on top of the house and I'd get annihilated as soon as I walked out. Took about six attempts before I managed to make it to a car and escape. Don't know why though, every other mission hasn't been a problem. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I had a tough time with that mission too. Any mission where starting a gunfight attracts bacon can be a pain for me because of the inherent randomness. You never know when, where or how many cops are going to show up and it's tough to plan for it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, that's the one, "Smackdown". I think they didn't do enough playtesting on that one, |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you just go in the house quickly, kill them quick and don't spend ages shooting from the outside of the house and you can get it done before the cops come. you can always escape out the back door too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah I've just watched my mate do it this morning and the police didn't even turn up. he sniped the guys outside from a distance then just strolled in, finished the rest off and strolled back out. He hasn't failed a single mission yet. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

I just hit a car so hard head on, the other driver rolled out in flames. Heheh funny.. |

It's good, but I was hoping for a much bigger jump to be honest. I know it's still more ambitious than 80% of other games, but it's felt like another 3d GTA with prettier textures so far. I was hoping for more interior buildings to explore, more interaction with the environment and pedestrians, more choices within missions...I got a Xbox360 just for this, but I'm enjoying the 'Half Life 2: Orange Box' game a lot more. Maybe I'm just a bit bored of the GTA series. I had just been playing San Andreas before this, which might have been a bit of a stupid move. |

Anyone else had to go out and buy real hot dogs? This game makes me hungry. "Put this hot meat in your mouth!" |

I just went from a 28in fat screen to a 46in LCD. Now I can actually see what all the signs say and the radio station logos do make sense now. I didn't notice the short DOF effect earlier either. I still need to tweak the image parameters, the game looks like it's being unsharp masked to death now. Euro Cup is coming up soon too. That'll be sweet with this monolith. (it's a Sony KDL46W4000) |

SPOILER! If you choose revenge does Roman still somehow get killed on his wedding day? |

No, somebody else does. You can probably guess who. |

I chose money and now I'm after Dimitri anyway... |
