Out of interest, how many peeps are having problems freezing who aren't cheating bastards?

Mine is fine, haven't put one cheat code in the game yet, well into the second island now... The only thing I have noticed in the game, is "slow down" I think this is probably due to the ps2's hardware not being able to keep up with the game, I only notice it at times when there is alot going on in the picture, i.e coming into a big area with cars going everywhere when you are hurtling towards them on a bike or something....seems to slow for about 2 secs then it speeds up again, doesn't beome un playable tho

Mine somtimes seems to take a while to load.
From the beginning when you turn it on or in between on missions n stuff? Can't say I have noticed a problem with either myself

I reckon the freezing is to do with yall being cheat using cock smokers
LOL Tis alright Steve, it's showing who the "real playa's" are

I reckon you lot all got duff copy's or your PS2 lasers need cleaning and/or are on the way out!

Never tried killing them....took me a few go's to complete that mission tho! I haven't cheated in the game, all my weapons I have either found and bought with money I have built up (mainly through gambling ) Doing well though! I have a serious arsenalry of weapons I found early on in the game best way to get some desent semi automatics was the missions killing all the russians and ballas, just make sure to run and get all there cash and weapons as they have a lot!!! Now on the second island it is pissing me off getting around a bit, as a fair bit is mountainous countryside it takes a while to get around being the size it is! Need planes and helicopters more readily available me thinks

OGs party is easy enough with the right guns. Jus make sure you got full health and armour and decent guns, things like AKs rather than the lil guns.

Soon as u kill the ones on the bridge run over to the alleyway as thats where the next lot comes from and just wade in killing everyone before they kill your mates.

The bike one, well main thing is aim for the bike riders rather than the bikes, dont worry about most the cars unless they dead close, then aim for the drivers again, and on the final bit (after you jump the transporter n before you go into the lil tunnel) face forwards as you have to kill some geezers in front of you.



PMSL@The game at the mo tho! For ages now there been a mission where i had to go copy the plans for the mafias casino but it was hard so i jus was doing other missions.
Well i did it and the next one was to get a security pass off one of the birds who works at the casino, and....

You follow her, she goes to the sex shop, you follow her in, you see her all dressed up in this pervy leather get-up she jus bought, she leaves to go home, you go buy a GIMP SUIT and put it on (NO JOKE, your dressed head to fookin toe in a PVC gimp suit, mask n all ) and follow her slyly to her house.
Shes expecting a gimp to go visit her, when you see him you kill him, steal the huge (at least 2foot long ) pink double ended dildo and go into her house and give her the beasting of her life
Shes now your 2nd girlfriend and have to keep her sweet so you can rob her security pass.

And then you got a bright pink double ended dildo as a weapon and i been wondering the streets in a gimp suit beating people to death with it

This games fucked up Shame they dont show the sex properly, fuck knows why tho, the talking in the game is well doddgy, not jus the sex stuff but even that kiddy fiddler off the wild traveler show n stuff

And the Fernando Martinez at the end of Lonely Hearts "This is Fernandos Signature move"

Yep did all that! Nothing better than grabbing a plane, flying to where you wanna go and right as your above it pressing the triangle button and sky diving to the ground. Much quicker to get places that way

Pretty much as Steve say's, I was stuck on the big smoke bike one, as Steve said, best to aim for the bike drivers as they are the one's taking ur bikes health down really

You follow her, she goes to the sex shop, you follow her in, you see her all dressed up in this pervy leather get-up she jus bought, she leaves to go home, you go buy a GIMP SUIT and put it on (NO JOKE, your dressed head to fookin toe in a PVC gimp suit, mask n all ) and follow her slyly to her house.

Are you sure this is the same game mate?

Has anybody tryed the mission where you kill big smoke??

Now thats annoying! After about 20mins of getting from one end of a factory to another killing a ridiculous ammount of people you have to fight big smoke,fair enough but when you kill him 10penny sets fire the building which takes about another 20mins to get out after putting out all the fires.You finally get out(With not much health)and you have to chase down 10penny who has Sweet and after all the chasing and avoinding all the petrol bombs people throw at you,you have to then shoot at cops bikes/cars ect for ages more,then i died...

Such a hard llllooooonnnnngggg mission.Felt like kicking the TV

My guess would be a mugging or burglary.

Possibly a competition with GTA San Andreas as the prize

Sounds like the game gets a lot harder as you get through it. I'm already getting pissed off with the RC Aeroplane missions. Anyone got any tips for the one where you have to shoot the five delivery drivers?

Yea, fookin forget about em, they not critical to the gameplay

I've tried to do the first one where you shoot the incoming RC planes about 20 times now, given up on it now.

Who wants to work for some computer geek anyhow!

Fuck them RC missions, they feckin impossible

Right, the Casino heist missions, i got the motorbikes, i broke into the army base n stole the crane helicopter (i REALLY thought i was gonna be in trouble there but i mullered em all and eded it with full energy n armour, lol), and got the passcard off the girlfriend.

NOW WHAT? NO sign of Woosie anywhere, was expecting a fonecall, where do i have to go?

Still not done all the missions at the Airport for the CIA geezer but they gay and didnt affect it before so dont expect its that, is it?

And you become a proper pimp once you done all the pimp missions eh? Quality, il do em then, got bored with em 1st time round.

Been doing the Freight Train missions, i quite like them actually

Quarry Missions are wank mind (anyone know what you get outa that?)

Its quality now i got gangster rating on most the guns, esp the Pistol and Mack10 so i can hold 1 in each hand

Yeah I've managed to do them all know. Although gameplay has been brought to a stop, due to me smashing up my controller in a rage. Got to buy a new one now
