I like driving the trains too Can get some proper speed up coming from the station on the 2nd island (best place to get em as even the goods trains slow down there enough to jump on) back to the first island, and then have a MASSIVE crash on the sharp corner near the Gym on the 1st island, lol.

I just relaised you can go to the other islands before your actually "allowed" to as well

Just fuckin swim

Only thing is soon as u hit the island your wanted level goes up to 4 stars

I was on the last island by doing this, thought i had a plan by heading to the nearest pay n spray, a LONG way away but after swapping about 10 cars i got there

And it has no effect

So i carried on running!

Another 20 cars and huge police shootouts in the desert later i hit the casinos!

And then was shot to pieces in a serious ambush by the cops

Ive tried the mission once for the pimp where we have to go to the airport but got shot up so didnt get in no planes.

Im gonna go find some and get my ass shot down

DONT go in the naval base either, 5stars and certain death, trust

I got away in a costgaurd boat i found but still got killed

I thought i was well clever when i swam over to the other island, WRONG
Thought i was even cleverer when i got to the pay n spray., WRONG

you can get into the airport on the first island... when you get to the gates where the guy tells you you need a pilots licence climb on your car and clib onto the roof of his building, use that to jump over the fence then go up the ramp and jump over the next fence and you'll see a dodo on your right. ignore that and make off and the right side of the runways...a little way down you will find a private jet...

Fuck me, is your brother a bit "special" or somthing

I play the game about 2hrs a day tops, had it since friday, and was on the 2nd island by monday

I dont even play games, just like the GTA ones.



Anyhow...

This 2nd island really fucks me off...

Drove/Stole some trains, they good fun and easy way of getting around till you crash em, lol, BUT theres summat shit about the game there, have some awesome crashes but once they crashed CJ can push the wagons around the scenery like they made of bloody feather

Did the sly way of breaking into the airports (up n over the roof of the checkpoint ) and stole the learjet thing, then did a few stunts and got shot down by fighters

Is there a way of betting and WINNING or is it jus fluke? Ive won now n again but very rarely...

And whats the crack with sex appeal? Full muscle, no fat, etc and sex appeal is dead low. Can you work it out from what people say? People compliment the muscles, the hair and the tatoos, but people keep saying i smell How the fuck can you go wash?
In the advanced driving test place theres a bird you can crack on to and she says to fuck off as you too skinny CJs built like a brick shit house at mo Do you NEED fat too?

And apart from that im finding the 2nd island dead hard and its fucking me off

To get sex appeal up:

Find youself a banshee/jester/other such beastly car, go to a mod shop, add everything you possibly can to the car basically...

Come out of the garage, and your sex appeal should be halfway.

Also, your sex appeal goes up and down depending on the clothes you wear and weapons you have. (supposedly)

Class game though. Pissed off with it just now, stuck on the "just business" mission motherfuckin bike keeps blowing up! hardly had a chance to play it, got it last friday, playedit all day friday, few hours saturday then the odd shot now n then when i got a minute. Not as addictive as VC though.......

Funny, i was having a 'mare on the 2nd island and had a go last night before went to bed and totally pissed it and now on the 3rd island and own my own airfield

Being a bit FAT actually helps sex appeal I got about 1/6 fat and the sex appeal is higher...

Expensive clothes helps too.

You can build some REALLY madly modded cars too from the 1 kind of modding shop roof and bonnet scoops, big foglights, huge 5" zorsts, and nasty halfords spoilers, on REALLY ugly cars
Build some awesome looking cars with the lowrider shops tho.
Cool that you can see the NOS bottles thru the car windows too

Il have another go in a bit as doing feck all tonight (tho should be doing ym car but too lazy, lol)

ALSO! Eat LOADS of food one after another after another and you throw up I kept feeding him n feding him, and after 12 of the biggest meals he retches then blows chunks all over the resteraunt

Got a samuri sword now, fun to chop heads off with, not as fun as hitting people round the head with a spade that are sitting in cafes, tey jus KOd with their heads on the table

The RADIO is fookin hillarious too, esp talk radio, when Laslow is interviewing OG Loc

You do the positive comment (right keypad button) and then the music should start and the bar should appear on the bottom of the screen showing you what buttons to press when, and you have to dance like youve never danced before

Me and Woosie got a Casino now and kicking some mafia ass

Some of the jokes to do with Woosie being blind are well funny

The flying missions for the CIA type bloke i cant do tho (tho passed all the pilot test missions).

Decent big machineguns and auto shotguns available now.

In the shooting range at ammunations i fail round 3 of the shotgun one every time by just 1 point and it drives me fooooookin crazy

OK,

Had a couple hours on the game today, got from the first island to the second, been gave that second crazy bitch some and done all those missions, i couldn't beleive he had been setup. So much for grove street for life

Done the second island now it seems, just got to the third island with that hippie fooker

Been back to the first island, checking it all out, fooking house money gone taken over by ballas having fun flying the jet, although didnt get shot down by the fighter jets, gutted

feels like i have hardly explored the second city, had fun on the quads n stuff tho Still only 20% completed apparently Third island now then....my money building up again

Oh, one question, what are the flowers u pick up? are they them lucky charm things? if so I am getting down the bookys

The RC mission is impossible IMO

but you dont need to do it, so ignore it and save your 30k

Yea on the final island with all the casinos, which is quality for gambling as you can play the slots, poker, blackjack, roulette, and a wheel of fortune type thing.
Some games let you put up to 1 million dollars on in one go!

get to fly planes and helicopters, and get your ass shot down by fighterplanes and surface to air missiles

Get to meet up with that english twat from Vice City, and the solicitor geezer from vice city too.

As well as co-owning a Casino with Woosie im Madd Doggs new manager.

LOADS of missions for bloody millions of different people at mo, on all the bloody islands, honestly more than 10 different sets of missions available at mo i think

Fucking difficult some of em too, well all of em, cant go a mission anymore without having to buy some more body armour at the end at least anymore.

Theres one where you have to copy the plans for the mob casino from the council office n escape and i get shot to bits, lucky to get out the door alive but if i do i always got a 4star cop rating from it being such a massacre inside and get fucking caned
