I beat it in 31 hours but I had an old save so I started again at No. 1 mission where you race the Porsche and I take taxis everywhere instead of driving...much quicker.

if you turn out phone off does it effect that achievement? I only realized I could pause the story so I could screw around after I had unlocked the 3rd island.

I just found out michelle is a traitor and I never even got a chance to have sex with her. I just found that out so now I need to go find out what else happens next.

Really are you guys smoking rocks, how hard is it to follow this train? I did it on my first try and since I am playing the game again I just did it today. I don't see how so many people can't follow a train.

I haven't gotten that far yet (thanks for the non-white text spoiler, by the way ), but I figured she was no good. All of the things she says don't sit well with me; it's like she's crazy. I got some really off-the-wall call from her last night after the first Elizabeta mission and it sounded like she'd narc me out.

As for banging her, she gives it up on the second date (and every subsequent one)...what the hell's wrong with you?

Seriously, you don't even have to stay THAT close. If you get a Hummer you can pretty much run over everything, maybe that will make it easier.

The patriot is actually an awesome vehicle. You can drive right over other cars, and it drives real well too.

Sorry I said spoilers hahaha.

I was going to get around to banging her I just didnt relieze she would betray me. Oh well I know for next time.

Also to people stuck following the train dont do that. Instead follow the red little dot on your radar its MUCH easier.

I don't like it, it bounces all over the place. I want to go FAST, and it doesn't do it. Was playing to right after I took Michelle out and I got in the pick up I was driving and this sweet ass red car popped up, like a Ferrari. I got out and jacked it, that was great. I also jacked a Viper like from two gay guys before Dimitri jacked me up.

Are there any other hot cars?

The 300C look a like, is crap. The physics done with this cars are poor.

the Lambo aka the Infernus is the best car in the game period. It is fast and turns on a dime.

You get one after you finish all of Bernies missions from the gay congressman as a gift for hiding his gay relationship

I love the sentinel and sultan, and the futo is slow but a lot of fun because it handles real well. I've driven a rare futo gt too, which looks like the hachi roku and it's fast too. Of course, all the super cars are great, the viper, lambo, ferrari, corvette, AM. My favorite of all though is the Comet/Porsche

For some reason my stats say I do. I think if you try crossing the bridge before your allowed you get six. Thats the only time I can remember having a lot of stars.

So, any word on custom music? Is it possible?

Also, I would've like to have seen the car modifying in this one as well, it was fun in San Andreas...

Otherwise, this game is fantastic.

You can buy it at the gun shop. There are also some hidden across the city.

Here is a map of the city
http://grandtheftauto.ign.com/maps/1/Liberty-City-Map

Select "Items", then "Body Armor" to see where they are if you don't want to buy it.

I think cost from the gun shop is $500.

Get used to buying body armor before your missions. For the later ones, it's a requirement if you want to last
