Chris Posted May 6, 2008 Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 It's even better when your neurotic girlfriend gets pished and hurls abuse at you while you're trying not to fall over.Yes, I'm dating that one in the game as well. She might get dumped shortly if she keeps up that pish.The missions are really starting to get harder for me now. Taking a couple of attempts to do every one I try at the moment. Think I'm not far off unlocking the last island though so it makes sense. Don't want to post any spoilers for anyone though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonz Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Just wondering how noisy everyone's xbox 360 gets with this game (as in disc read noise)?I've heard the game is quite intensive on the DVD drive and even though my xbox is brand new it makes a hell of a racket playing Gears of War (i'm catching up on older games before i buy GTA4). In fact it makes so much noise I actually thought it might be faulty until my mate said his is the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain America Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Anyone had any problems with a mission not loading on the map?At the end of my last mission i got phoned and told to go buy a new suit and shoes before i meet the guy who will give me my mission. I did that but its not loading a mission location onto the map? EDIT: I tried various combinations of suits and shoes. In case I wasnt wearing a fancy enough suit. And i've tried phoning everyone in my phonebook to see if that will trigger it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain America Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 sorry wasnt payin attention.i see that u have tried phoning everyone so fook knowsI'll give it a bash later wearing various different suits. Annoyingly it was so long ago now I cant remember who it was that told me to get the damn suit.What mission do you think it was? Stick it in spoiler tags so you dont reveal any story to anyone.

GavH Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 been thinking-its probably not the mission i was thinking of.is it the first time you've been told to wear a suit?its probably... you've to go for a job interview but the interviews not for a day or 2 so it wont appear on the map until its actually time fo the interview.if u check your organiser on your phone it should have job interview somewhere in it hope that helps this time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain America Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Wasnt that level.Got it now, the game just hadnt put the mission guys initial on the map. I just had to find his house myself... o_OGot it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Subtle Arts Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 This game generated 500million dollars on the opening week. The closest thing that held the record previous was POTC: Dead mans Chest at 196million dollars.I bet Rockstar are partying hard and Take Two thinking theres no need for an EA take over now...

stuartmaxwell Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 yeah, but I wonder what the investment for the game was, the design/creative/production/premarketing/post marketing etc combined with the hellish backlog of sales-related royalties from in licenses stacked in this series will impact significantly on the takings.whilst 200m (which is what I seen as a figure) sounds amazing, the actual profit wont become clear for another 12-15 months.------------absolutely incredible game though. amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

framheim Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 fuck knows how you did the game so fast. that's me just finished now after probably over 40 hours. just watching the credits (for what seems like another 40 hours) and noticed iggy pop is the dj on the liberty rock radio and will wheaton does one of the voices on the halo rip off tv show. not many other famous names really.nae the jolliest of endings really.

Captain America Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 Im going to power through the final missions when I get home from Jersey. Got bored weeks ago only have about 10 missions left I reckon. Going to trade it in and put the money towards my ps3 + mgs4. Which I have been told by friends is very good (got delivered to them a day early... lucky bastards). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Gold Posted June 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 I must admit that it's not really held my attention either. It's still sitting waiting for completion. And the multiplayer's barely been touched since the initial orgasm that was the first 3 weeks or so of owning it.'Course, I'm rubbish at computer games, so I wouldn't take my word for anything.
