Pardon the post but....

I DID IT!!!!!!

"does the carlton dance"

I finally got through the "hung out to dry" mission!

(Yes I know I suck. You can laugh at me all you want. It took me 3 days to complete it)

SPTO, which mission is that? I remember the name, just don't remember what the mission was about.

It's a real early mission in the game. It's the one where you gotta chase after the laundromat guy and knock his van a bit so that he'll pay up vlad.

I really miss Vice City at this point. Money seemed more important. Got to buy cars and more property. Now I have 27,000 but don't have any use for it. I don't even have access to all the guns in the gun shop (not that I even care about that though).


Can I have a GARAGE please??? When's that guy gonna let me use his lock up?


I was online for a little while today but people were acting like they didn't know what was going on when I had the blips setting on NEAR (wanted to turn it off but I knew people would've quit at that point). I felt I could make a more strategy style game by setting it that way, but everyone was acting like they lost their eyesight. I wanna turn auto aim off too

Man, I feel bad for you when you get in the missions later on.

At least it gives me something to bash my head in over

I would like to commend you guys for labeling your spoilers. My hat is off you to.

FWIW, you can store 2 cars in that parking spot outside the first house. I know that because I saved and loaded and both were still there. Anywhere inside the yellow rectangle is okay. That's actually a step up from the previous games, because you could only store one vehicle at the first safehouse. Later on we'll probably get larger houses that have more parking spaces - that's a GTA standard.

I don't have access to the game right now, but I wonder if it goes by number of vehicles stored or that entire space? If the latter, you could probably fit 5 or 6 bikes in there..

I agree on the uselessness of the money at this poist. Im nearing 10K and really have no use for any of it.

Yeah, I always keep two cars there. One is my "mission" car, and the other one is the "date", "hanging out" car.

I've got $250,000 and I use so much of the money on sniper rifles.

Plus I had to take a contact out for dinner and I went to Bugershot and a burger there cost me $100!

Re: **The Official Grand Theft Auto 4 Thread**

I haven't seen anything on the stats screens, so......have hidden packages been taken out of the game? Do I actually have to BUY all my illegal weapons now?

There are some weapons just lying around, but nowhere near as many as in previous games.

The hidden packages are pigeons. You shoot them. I believe there are 200. I have only found 3.

Re: **The Official Grand Theft Auto 4 Thread**

Alright, I must be missing something because I can NOT hail a cab... I'm pressing L1, it does nothing... and I have yet to see the tutorial text even telling me that's how I do it.

Is there something I'm supposed to accomplish before I can do this?
