Re: GTA San Andreas

[quote=3hitsaday]i keep up w/ videogames so much, and i just dont know at what point did videogames line themselves up w/ movies as far as M ratings = R ratings in what can be included. I can remember Mortal Kombat violence disputes that lasted forever. Then there was the BMX game w/ the boobies that wanted to be included that stirred up controversy, now GTA san andreas is motherF every other word and noone seems to care.

the shit has hit the fan. We can only hope all of our kids will be born deaf and blind.[/quote]

I remember when I first got Vice City, after playing it all night for like week straight, i would want to just run over people, or smash other cars in...lol i would even start saying things the gangs would say...great fuckin game.

I reckon I'm going to buy this tonight.I was holding out for the price to come down,plus I'm still playing burnout 3 at the min,but San An is only ?30 in my local Asda so i might buy it there

#291839Post 45 of 72

just got this game. i feel like a little kid on christmas! can't wait to finish my dinner so i can play. i hope my ps2 still works...it's been sitting in my cabinet for 2+ years...it has about 3 inches of dust. with my luck i'll have an allergy attack from the dust and end up in the hospital...

#291978Post 46 of 72

Bought it last night - one word - amazing!

I cant believe how large the area is - it really is massive,it will take months to work through it all.

One letdown is the music-its not the best if you dont like rap and urban stuff.Although it was pretty cool cruising around listening to 808 State-Pacific last night!

#292715Post 49 of 72

Okay, I think I'm onto something:

Go get a parachute from the top of the tallest building in Los Santos. Stand on a car at the lowest wall in the Los Santos airport, then climb over the airport wall. Go to the other end of the airport until you see the Jet (not the dodo). Keep flying circles around the city until you're about as high as you can go (you won't see anything but clouds underneath you). When you're as high as you can go, center yourself heading north over the huge interstate in the center of the city, and fly north toward Las Venturas. Shortly after you make it across the border you'll get a permanent 4 star wanted level (even a pay & spray won't shake it)... keep flying until you get shot at. A missile will hit you and the plane will catch on fire; bail of of the plane, switch to the parachute, and deploy it. Use the parachute to skydive/sail as far north as you can along the road just to the right of the main one coming from the south... the cops won't touch you while you're floating in air. Keep circling until you land just above the portion of the road that's goes diagonal, then straightens out again... you want to land in the half-circle on your map. You'll land at the Visage Casino's entrance. beat the cops to the casino, then waste your money playing poker/blackjack.

I'm typing this up as I wait for CJ to land the stupid parachute... that's really far up. hopefully I can even get in the casino when I land.

I need to quit playing this game. :oops:

#292720Post 50 of 72

Casino wouldn't open. tried two of 'em, too... At least I got a nice drive-by view of the city before they destroyed 4 of my cars and finally killed me. At least I got to see the Vegas Strip with the neons & shit

Re: GTA San Andreas

Great game....I am not a big fan of this kind of games but to be honest this game is very good...

#299672Post 55 of 72

So I just started the gang wars today... this shit's crazy! This game's unique from 3 and VC because the gang wars will always be going on, so the game will practically never end. I'm still addicted.

#299677Post 56 of 72

i took cj to the gym for about 5 hours straight. dood is ripped :!: i found the handy lil clothes store too. got my man pimpin like the gay member of the village people.... oh wait.. never mind. hes running arround in a zorro mask & a leopard skin cowboy hat w/ flip flops & green sweats. gotta represent the gang. gotta admit that his sex appeal for the ladies is null right now. but i did take him into the sporting good store & the guy at the counter was hitting on him. kick ass :!: :!: :!:

#300098Post 59 of 72

This game is hard!I'm also in the gang war part and its ridiculously difficult(bear in mind I'm trying to do as much of the game as possible without any cheats at all).If you havent got a decent gun your buggered,as the ballas gang just tear you apart.

The only missions i havent started yet are cesar's - when these are done will i open up the rest of the map or are there more?

#300154Post 60 of 72

I'm in the same boat, dude. I've done the Cesar missions (there's only two), and am doing the gang wars. Just make sure you grab the weapons of the people you kill during the gang wars and you'll get an unlimited badass weapon supply. The Ballas are giving me a little trouble, but I've taken over about 3 territories so far. I don't ever use the cheats though, so I'll get it all on my own.

I have a mission list that I use to cross off my progress, and it looks like there's 2 missions after the 2 Cesar missions until San Fierro is unlocked. So you have 4 missions to go.

#300196Post 61 of 72

Cheers picklemonkey,hopefully i will unlock san fierro soon.Although the 1st cesar mission is a race isnt it,and i hate races,no matter how good you are at driving you always hit something!

#300204Post 62 of 72

doh. I was thinking of the CRASH missions. There's only one Cesar mission, and yeah... it's a race. It's not too tough, just stay behind for the first 10 seconds until all the other cars crash, then shoot ahead. It took me about 4 tries before I got it... but I could've had it in two if I hadn't hit a pole at the very end of the race.

Almost as nutty as I am considering to get an Xbox just for Halo 2, then of course selling it afterwards. :wink:

#304117Post 65 of 72

Good, i'm not allone in this then :lol:

#304138Post 66 of 72

I've done 25.04% of the game now,and I'm loving it.Just got into San Fierro,done a couple of missions there too.I'm on the mission where you have to shoot the flying airplanes out of the sky to protect Zero's transmitters,and boy is it hard!I hate those type of missions where you have to be really delicate on the control pad.I'm hoping that I will scrape through it by luck!

#304640Post 67 of 72

It's just an amazing game.

#304742Post 68 of 72

San Andreas truly kicks some butt! Also, because I have a weak spot for early 90's hip hop it quite a bliss just to scout around listening to the radio stations in a pimped out ride :D I started first doing all the side missions I can find, missions like ambulance, vigilante & pimping etc. Then I'll head on with the main story. Going for the 100% :)

And I need to make a stunt reel, definitely. Some really nice spots there already at the first city. At least a good reason to pull out some nice soundtrack for it :)

#331986Post 69 of 72

I've spent like the last 90 minutes doing this mission, then was walking around San Fierro finding Photo Ops pictures... took about 12 photo ops pictures, and accidentally ran over a copy in the process. Started to haul ass out of there, but I rolle dmy car into a ditch and the cop caught me while I was still in it! I hadn't saved since I beat that mission or found the 90 minutes worth of city-searching for my Photo Ops, so I figured this would be the first time I'd nut up and actually "get" arrested... I got out of the police station, went to Ammunation to restock my ammo, and started to drive to a save point. Stopped by the gym to work CJ out since he was starting to lose a lot of muscle, and as I entered the gym THE GAME LOCKED UP! Fuck. I've been sitting here reading "Gym" in the bottom of my TV for 10 minutes now. I should've fuckin saved the shit immediately after , but this is just annoying. Seriously.

#332112Post 70 of 72

Ive done 78% of it now,done all the story missions,so I just have all the side stuff to do.I dont normally care for all that side cobblers,but I'm having withdrawal symptoms for the game so I'm playing it anyway!

Here is a handy link,it contains maps for all the stuff such as oysters,snapshots,horsehsoes etc:

I use [b][u][url=http://www.g-unleashed.com/index.php?cat=16]GTA Unleashed[/url][/u][/b] and [b][u][url=http://gtagaming.com]GTAGaming[/url][/u][/b] for all my checklist-type needs. They have other maps on it... but neither has the weapons/items map. GTA Unleashed is a coooool site, packed with info on all GTAs
