Got the game & I'm hopelessly addicted to it.

I've solved almost half the game already to the point where I went "into business" for myself in the game.

I bought "The Pole Position" Strip Joint....There's a girl in a nightie who'll dance for you.

Dazzling graphics all around!

Incredibly good game... and so many little things you can do as well.

If you're going to do vigilante missions, I recommend using the undercover car (the Cheetah) as it's way faster than any opponents you'll encounter. Then you just have to get in front of the opposition, aim and fire. The Cheetah and FBI Washington can be painted in any paint shop. The FBI Rancher cannot be painted, since it's a unique vehicle (nobody else drives the extended cab except the feds).

Also, the asset I definitely recommed getting your hands on right away is Sunshine Autos. You get your own paint shop, several garages, several good cars (once you do the import/export lists which are nowhere near as hard to complete as the GTA3 lists) and lots of money.

CHEAT:

In the "Bombs Away!" mission, take the first remote control airplane over the bridge and into the Cubans' yard. Land the RC plane in their back yard and RAM the Cubans with the RC plane until they die. (Ping noise) When they are ALL dead, take the plane & land it in the boat and detonate the bomb. Do the same to the remaining 2 RC planes to the last two boats. MISSION SOLVED!

That was how I did the mission as well. That little plane was way too hard to fly.

What would everyone say is the hardest car to steal? I'd have to say the FBI wagon since any time you get one on the screen, there's usually four angry FBI agents storming out of it, killing everything with their MP5s. I've stolen several of them but I've paid the dearest cost for trying, more often than not.

Word to the wise: Swallow your pride, whip out your wallet adn buy a controller for your PC when you get this game, because flying the Helicopter with the keyboard is like playoing musical chairs with twelve angry ferrets. Sooner or later it'll bite you in the arse.

D.W. - which FBI car do you mean? If it's the Washington, there's one hidden behind the Downtown Pizza restaurant :)

NIT: In "Alloy Wheels of Steel", if you enter the Greasy Chopper in a police uniform, Mitch Baker still says, "You don't look like a cop, so that just bought you a minute"

Does that make sense?


By John A. Lang (Johnalang) on Saturday, May 10, 2008 - 9:24 pm:

NIT: In "Psycho Killer", you must kill the psycho to finish the mission.

However, in "Publicity Tour", Love Fist says that you failed to kill the psycho.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Favorite Mission:

(Besides the "Pole Position" mission)

"Brown Thunder".

That Army Chopper ROCKS!
