OK, this game has entered my dreams. Last night I'm dreaming that I'm walking around with somebody, they bump into someone, they don;t say anything. The person who got bumped called him an asshole or something. The guy I was walking with told him the eff off, BOOM out comes a shotgun and the guy and was walking with is laidout. I wake up like WTF.

This was after playing GTA4 for about 8 hrs yesterday.

Not if you have a G25!

I have no problems half pressing the triggers in GTA on the PS3 FWIW...

I do not have a 360 for comparison however...

I heard one of the dating websites gives you an instant 6 stars if you go to it because of underage kids. Which one is it (I want 6 stars not underage kids)?

I don't know about the 360, but I can't do it on the PS3. Whenever I want to free aim, I have to go into the set up and change the settings and then change back later. I suppose I could just use free aim all of the time (like in Uncharted), but I'm lazy .

Just curious since I don't have a 360, but what makes it easier?

Shape of the trigger
Amount of travel from none to half to full
Location on controller
Sensitivity
What you are used to
Other

FWIW, I have been playing with a Dual Shock 3, not the stock Sixxaxis.

how did you lose that?! the races are super easy in this game. you must have wrecked..no??

me and my friends always compete to see who can get the most stars and i can never get passed 3, i got 5 one time. yesterday i blew up 2 choppers, shot a plane at the airport, blew up 4 cop cars, shot 3 cops and blew up a swat truck and only got 3 stars. WTF?! how do i get hella stars without crossing a border?

has anyone been able to steal a plane?

I can't believe you did all of that and only got three stars. I've gotten three stars for just shooting a couple of cops and running down a few people while then trying to escape.

It took me two or three tries to beat No. 1. I needed to learn how the Comet handled...once I did, it easy. The first mission for PBX wasn't so simple...I came to the conclusion I couldn't rush in guns blazing as I would like but that I needed to be somewhat stealthy...boring, but it worked.

I don't think you can fly planes in this one...I swear I remember reading that somewhere.

There are hot dog and nut stands all over. There are also soda machines all over.

I think I read that you can also call 911 and an ambulance will come. After he heals you, he will charge $500 though, but I think you can kill the EMT and get your money back.
