Do any of the numbers found on the web work when you call them?

How long until I can buy some real duds? This Russian wear getting old.

Well for me the game automatically had me calling Roman after picking up Michelle and meeting her the first time. He tells you to go to this one russian shop and you can buy some clothes. (which reminds me I should buy some more after I complete a mission today)


So yeah....You guys weren't joking about Little Jacob I've met a few Jamaicans in my day so I probably caught on a bit more to what he was saying then some of you guys but I can see how you can get lost listening to him talk.

I gotta say I like the use of the pistol. The lock on is a little twitchy but it worked well enough.

Even though i'm really still very early in the game the story is quite interesting. Niko seems to be a very pensive and introspective sort in some ways.

Oh and Vlad is an ***. I love how he and Niko had their conversations. Pure comedy...Too bad it seems my association with him may be over for now.

I"m loving this game!

Knife

Spoiler

I believe someone just gives it to you early, but I can't quite remember. You can get a bat once you unlock the gun shop, which comes pretty soon.

Spoiler

I haven't gotten a knife or a bat yet but I have a whole bunch of guns.

Small plot question

Spoiler

After I killed Vlad, Nico mentioned something about being on a mission back when he was in the army, and something about a traitor who apparently lives in Liberty City. What was the full explanation there? I missed part of what Nico said.

Man why did I click that spoiler

Luckily I closed the tab 4 words into it but still too much was leaked to me. Oh well, can't say that development is a surprise really.

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

When you shoot them it says "X/200 flying rats left in Liberty City"

I only have 2. I found both of them while doing the courier missions for Little Jacob.

And is it just me or can anyone else not understand what little Jacob is saying the majority of the time? Me and Niko have the same expression after he talks. Even when I had my subtitles on I couldn't understand him..lol

I can understand some of what he says but other times I have no idea.

Just killed a man named Darden by accident. He fell through the window while we were fighting.
Took Michelle out on a date bowling.

The game is already very good.
The playability of the openworld is very lifelike.
Its like playing a movie.

Listening to a little Special Ed I Got it Made while I drive Michelle home.

I saw this random shootout by the airport when I was walking around. I don't know what was going on but some guy just went crazy and started shooting at people. There were like 5 police cars that showed up and they finally killed him.

Did he land in the water? That was an amazing visual.

You'll find out once you wind up the missions in the first island.

When you unlock the second Island three new shops open up...i got a scarface look going on myself.

Two questions...is it possible to shoot a RPG while on a helicopter? im trying to figure out how to get the chain reaction achievement. Also, who do you unlock the helicopter from? Playboy?

I've seen a couple random ones like that too. I was walking where a guy behind me just started shooting me and everyone else, as I was about to draw my gun a cop ran him over. lol

Also some of the realism in this game is cool. A guy was shooting me from the car and I got a instant head shot on him while he was driving. Instead of the car stopping, it kept going but without direction for a while while the honking continued signaling his head is on the steering wheel.
