Only about 10% through...haven't killed any pidgeons yet, but I did see Katt Williams on TV.
Something I noticed last night, even though the cops are easier to attract, they're easier to run from than in previous versions. At one point, I got lost in the northern part of the island (rarely go there at this point), and I ended up on the runway at the airport...which gives you an instant four-star wanted level. Everything went nuts as soon as I crossed some imaginary line. However, I was able to run (and eventually elude) the cops for almost eleven minutes, most of that on foot! There was a helicoptor shooting, beat cops shooting, cars, and SWAT, but I was still able to get away. Granted, I was starting to think I wouldn't, and they did wipe out all of my armor and 98% of my health, but that kind of wanted level on foot would have meant death or capture in previous games. And yeah, it was a lot of fun, too
.
That was also when I realized why I was only 10% of the way through the game...I spend too much time attracting and then running from the cops while not on missions

I was doing great until I ran up 3 stars last night and got boxed in on a bridge by a convoy of hummers and the cops. Lost all my weapons.
BTW, don't try to go backstage at the strip club. I thought I was in LOVE, but apparently bouncers don't appreciate that fact. Or shotguns to teh face.

there are bigger maps further down.
Some things I can't find even when there is a dot near by , but I do know that most of the armor near the safe houses can be found.

That was uncalled for...
Tonight, after I drop my girlfriend off, I will be heading to the nearest 24 hour Wal Mart and getting a PS3 with GTA4, and maybe Prolouge....
I've got a question, can you put in your own music into the game?

finally picked it up and started playing today.
Its ok...I dont love the feel of the controls. Its amusing enough to keep playing. Maybe it will get better the deeper I get.

Well, my version is screwing up.
After the game installs, it hangs on the black screen with "Starting A New Game..." in the bottom right corner.
I will delete the data and start again
80 gb PS3

im reading online that the fix is a simple disconnect from the internet because sometimes the server crashes or something. great.... deleted my save game for nothing.
