Nah, any customized car is one you have to find cuz there aren't any more customizable shops in the game. The customized Patriot is probably the most common customized car.

5/2/2008 4:35:31 PM

yeah I've seen some of the Patriots with the flags or flames or whatever

maybe we'll just have to wait until Grand Theft Auto IV: Return To Vice City

5/2/2008 4:45:18 PM

I just got the game this afternoon. Holy fuck am I an awful driver.

5/2/2008 4:50:43 PM

It definitely takes awhile to get used to the new driving.

5/2/2008 4:53:28 PM

a lot depends on the vehicle too

5/2/2008 4:54:29 PM

you have to drive realistically.

can't pull Formula 1 stunts in a minivan anymore.

5/2/2008 4:57:42 PM

wow these FBI guys are hard core!

5/2/2008 4:59:42 PM

FIB!

5/2/2008 5:03:29 PM

i usually tap the emergency break and once i'm partway through the turn, i'll steer the other way to compensate for possible spinout...but yeah if you go from an SUV to a sports car, you can tell how much better the sports car handles

5/2/2008 5:08:59 PM

yeah, I was dicking around in Roman's cab trying to get a feel for it and was having a real tough time. Once I found a corvette for the first time the handling was a lot easier and more fun

5/2/2008 5:19:10 PM

Coquette lol

5/2/2008 5:52:13 PM

FINALLY beat snow storm

but the phone rang during the ending cutscene and I missed it

is there a site I can see it?

5/2/2008 5:57:54 PM

If you beat a certain set of missions you get the real, legit Lambo. Not the Ferrari. The real one is as fast and as good at handling as the Ferrari but it's built so much more solidly. I've crashed it into made shit and it doesn't look bad at all.

5/2/2008 6:07:20 PM

is that a porsche you get when you race the first time with brucie? thats the best handling/fastest car ive found so far....i kill people in races with it

5/2/2008 7:04:52 PM

i didn't find snow storm to be that hard...just killed 3 swat guys on my way out, jacked the pickup truck, rolled till it was too damaged, jacked another car and got away

favorite mission so far is the bank heist - shit reminded me of Heat

5/2/2008 7:47:10 PM

Bank heist was fun as hell. I think it took me like 3 tries cuz the first time I didn't know you had to run down the alley so I was just battling an infinite amount of cops, then the second time I died in the subway tunnels, then I beat it the 3rd try. That gun club dude is hilarious. "The world is built on bad ideas."

The missions later on when you have to keep NPC characters alive suck because they're incredibly inept at staying alive. I've had numerous mission failures because someone who had to stay alive gets fucking lit up because they're an idiot.

5/2/2008 8:21:24 PM

his recounting of his days as a high school football player were the icing on the cake for the heist scene

5/2/2008 8:39:25 PM

Haha yeah. I usually skip the cutscenes the second time if I failed a mission the first time, but I definitely watched that part again. That shit was funny as hell. Then he got waxed.

5/2/2008 8:41:12 PM

some footage of flying around in a chopper from dusk until dawn.

5/2/2008 8:58:43 PM

so the website http://www.whattheydonotwantyoutoknow.com (in game) shows maps with locations of armor, guns, pigeons, etc

pretty little nifty addition for those in need of locations

5/2/2008 9:31:24 PM

I got it tonite but havent opened it yet, such willpower

5/2/2008 10:28:34 PM

What are the benefits to being online while playing single player, if any?

5/2/2008 10:42:11 PM

after 4 tries i finally beat catch the wave earlier, other than that all the missions have been 3 tries or less

still only 50% completed though


awesome fucking game

5/2/2008 10:53:50 PM

anyone have a 2 day live key laying around

5/2/2008 10:55:24 PM

you two are already up to 50%... you leave the house at all?

5/2/2008 11:08:40 PM

only to go to the gym, eat and take exams

other than that weve just been getting drunk and hammering on some gta IV, besides, its only been like 3 days

5/2/2008 11:10:29 PM

thats my point... 3 days... 50 %... hahaha

5/2/2008 11:15:59 PM

haha but there's 2 of us


anyway, how far have you gotten now?

5/2/2008 11:18:24 PM

like 11.8 or something

5/2/2008 11:20:58 PM

It took me 2 tries to do snowstorm. second time I got a police car and parked it right outside.

and wow 50g for avoiding 4 star. that was a good surprise.

5/3/2008 12:26:27 AM

i highly recommend the "free" race, where its just race from point a to point b across the map however you can get there

fun

as

hell

5/3/2008 1:03:53 AM

I think someone stole my damn banshee from the parking space outside.

Or else there's a bug and it just vanished.

Because it's gone now!

5/3/2008 1:16:08 AM

For some reason, all of my cars always disappear from my space outside. Yes, I park within the yellow area.

5/3/2008 1:17:05 AM

i tried that link above but i don't think it's to the right place... anyone know of the locations of body armor around the map. i'm on the bank heist mission and keep entering the subway section with only one shot left on me before i die.

^ i've got helicopters parked in all my spaces and they never move are you sure you're saving your games from the right time or loading them from after the point you parked the car there?

5/3/2008 3:19:47 AM

Is anyone else fucking Carmen? Because I totally have dibs on that bitch.

5/3/2008 3:24:48 AM

^ no how the hell do you find carmen. I was with michelle but *spoilers deleted* and I can't find anybody else so what do you do

5/3/2008 4:05:36 AM

There are some good ass quotes from this game. If it wasn't a game, people would be all over that shit

5/3/2008 4:11:09 AM

When you log on that internet cafe click on the love-meet.com banner and click "date" on every girl (there are only 9 or so)

I totally blew it with Michelle by blasting a guy off of a motorcycle with a shotgun when she asked me to find us a ride.

5/3/2008 4:54:08 AM

Carmen is a stupid fucking bitch.

5/3/2008 6:58:35 AM

i'm at 18% and sucking. i think i'm just gonna start using the armor cheat all the time.

5/3/2008 7:08:24 AM

i just got finished rescuing roman and on the way out of the area, i ran my truck into something explosive and instantly died.

[Edited on May 3, 2008 at 9:10 AM. Reason : and i'm 30% complete. woohoo.]

5/3/2008 9:10:23 AM

How much money did they have to pay to get this game hyped?

It really is an excellent example of proper marketing to the "gamer" crowd.

5/3/2008 9:45:12 AM

^^^you need to use cover and use your vehicle when you can to run over people, etc on missions

potential spoiler........


































michelle's a bitch, dont waste your time screwing her

5/3/2008 11:16:25 AM

im hooked on multiplayer

5/3/2008 11:55:12 AM

Yeah I never liked Michelle anyway

Always making of of my clothes, its like Bitch, you wear the same goddamn outfit every time


I keep wanting to do that free race, but everyone always wants to do laps instead.

So find a fire truck and completely block the race track, then get a rocket launcher and just blast them whenever they get bottlenecked.

Most laugh but some complain
