Hmm never seen it, another odd thing about this game is I am constantly seeing a new car. I just ran into the long bentley/maybach looking car and just ran into the M3 with the Wing and chameleon paint.

Word on asshats killing you online once you find something cool.

Favorite gun: AR-15 (Combat Rifle)
Favorite Sports Car: Toss up between the Porsche and Lambo
Favorite Cruising Car: Any of the Beamers (Aka Sentinels)
Best car I have saved: Bentley or the Lambo

Favorite people: Ramon and Jacob, Jacob brings me guns, and Roman can send you a taxi service to take you anywhere in the city if you dont feel like driving, or if you want to do a driveby
Thats awesome.

I am still getting used to this game from vice city but I really like it so far. However, I just started playing this weekend so I am stuck on the first island.

I just did a mission where you had to move heroin for the mafia and I shot the police who were on the ground in front of me, and blew up a heli and only got 3 stars. After I hopped in the truck, no more shooting. It stayed at 3 stars and I got away easy.

The first time I tried it I just shot the shit out of everyone, got 6 stars and was fucked up by the FBI.

BTW the FBI drive Dodge Chargers...kinda bad ass

Havent ever had more then 3 stars on me, guess i need to step my game up

i've had 5 stars once because i stole a police car, ran over 2 cops, shot another 3 cops, and then ran over about 20 pedestrians. ended up in a river cause the cop car couldn't clear the bridge and when i swam for it in the river a police boat came and they just kept shooting me and i died cause the boat was in hot pursuit.

I found the car. It's one of the hidden vehicles in the game. M3? Now I have to go searching for that.

There are so many stupid fun things to do in this game...

For single player I like to get in a big ass SUV like the Escalade (I think its the best handling/fastest) shoot out someone's tires, then chase them. Then when they go sliding in a turn I nail them between a building, and repeat til their head is on the horn. I noticed the AI always drives in circles though, I saw some dude pick up a prostitute and he drove around the block like 3 times before going elsewhere

For online vs. other people they should just turn auto aim off....

strip club; Do I do something wrong?

LOL damn what did I do?

I went into the strip club last night and got a private lap dance. When the girl was done, I declined another dance and said I wanted to leave the room. Next thing I know the girl runs out screaming. I leave the room to go back to Roman, and next thing I know two or three bouncers surround me and start beating the shit out of me. I try to fight, but I saw I was out numbered, so I run out of the club with Roman. After I leave, I am still getting beat up by one of the bouncers but I finally manage to get away from him. I turn around only to see the bouncer now punching Roman. At this point, I just run back and kill the guy with my knife.

LOL, what did I do wrong to cause all the hostility in the club?

I was standing in front of the stages with a dancer, and I tried to figure out the button to throw a dollar bill or something (like in San Andreas) and I just threw a punch, wasn't targeting anyone or hit anyone then all of a sudden all the strippers ran out screaming

but no I don't know what you did wrong

Anyone know how do you pick up hookers in this game? I'm parked by one right now, and I'm honking my horn, but she's not doing anything.

Seems like its around 30% You need to do the second mission for Elizabeta and she introduces you to Playboy, he ends up taking you into Manhattan at the end.

If you're quick enough, you can get him before he gets to his car. That's what I did

Yeah, I went up the side he was on and ran across the tracks and shot him going down the stairs. Just don't get hit by the train, like I did the first time. Didn't even see it comin!

btw, you can move much faster up and down steps if you jump. That'll help you catch him if he makes it down the stairs

Yeah he's a POS and I thought he was cool. I'm sure payback will come later in the game though.

I don't think there is a number you have to do... I think you can do as many or as few as you want. I haven't done anything for him or Jacob in a while, they pay nothing.

Didn't know he sold guns...whats the benefit of buying from him vs. the store?

You get all the guns in the missions anyway...
