Or at least, completed to the point I will consider it so: I’ve managed a Silver or better on every level, and killed the bosses. In fact, I have only three Silvers, I think – two Platinums and the rest are all Gold. Not bad! I also amazed myself by getting over 65,000 on just Zora’s River – which gave me a Gold without even adding the other two scenarios on that level. Ace!
Well, that’s all the cars nicked for Stevie – all 30 of them. One was a little tricky as it was parking in a police station car park – next to a policeman. Managed to escape having shot the cop before stealing the car though. And then it was on to races for Brucie. Could I find a decent car anywhere though? No . So I turned up in this rubbish Mondeo-alike only to find a starting lineup of Infernuses. …
First up this evening was nicking more cars for Stevie. One of them was a real pain to find – it said it was next to the Liberty Transport Authority building on Rotterdam Hill, but it was actually miles away. I spent a good 45 minutes trying to find it. Anyway, I’ve nicked 20 cars for him now. Then I played online for a few games, mainly in Ranked Team Deathmatch. I was disappointed not to get the achievement for …
Caught up a bit tonight with some of the recent demos on the 360’s mrketplace. Frogger 2No. No no no. It’s like a horrible cute reimagining of Frogger, designed by a three year old. It’s horrible. And why on earth are there rotate button? And a bloody UFO?! And! The most irritating music and sound effect combo ever (especially when collecting lots of coins in one go – yes coins: why the hell does a frog need coins?). It’s all …
I’m starting to run out of things to do now, which is a shame. Having said that, I’m not going to milk it for all it’s achievement points, because some of them simply aren’t fun and will spoil my memory of the game. I finished off nicking all of the cars Brucie wanted (it turned out my email inbox was full, so wasn’t getting emails from him), which took most of today’s play. I went on some heli tours – …
Dwayne’s special “power” GET! Jacob’s special “power” GET! And, thanks to finally getting hold of Brucie and taking him out loads of times, Brucie’s “power” GET! But I still can’t nick cars for Brucie, even though his like for me is now 94%. GTA Glitch WatchAside from Brucie’s not-sending-me-emails bug, the game stops working every time I try to got for a heli ride with him. I call him up for one, drive to his house, and the game “takes …
I’m trying to build up relationships with all my in-game friends at the moment. Packie and Jacob in particular, as their like for me are both very low. Spent most of today’s play doing that, but also nicked another couple of cars for Stevie. No emails from Brucie though about nicking more cars for him, although he only likes me 35% so that might be it…
I was really hoping this was going to be rubbish. Because I tend to get hooked on Civ games and since I don’t play computer games any more I thought I was safe… But, as I feared, my “one quick go” lasted over an hour and I ended up running out of turns in the demo. So it has to go on my “want” list. I blame The Rev. It’s all his fault.
Yeah so anyway. It’s complete but there’s still stuff to do! By day, I’m friend-to-all, taking my chums out for meals and drinks and games, and by night I’m nicking cars for Brucie and Stevie. It’s an ace double life! Only Brucie isn’t sending me emails with requests for cars any more. I think it’s because his like for me is only 35%, but I can’t increase it as he never answers the phone! Pff. What percentage do you have …
As I’ve said before, I don’t like soldier games. Medal of Honour and Call of Duty both bore me to tears. Every other soldier game I’ve played since, well, Cannon Fodder I suppose, has been “meh” to me. So imagine my surprise when I found this to be just as tedious. OK, so it’s pretty and funny and the way you can blow holes in walls is nice, but it’s the whole “being a soldier” thing I don’t like about …
Completed all of the remaining “Scary Castle” levels today, followed by the first six or so in the Sewers. But now I’m stuck. Bah.
At 57 hours game time, and on my third attempt, I completed the final mission and killed Dimitri. Game over! And around 20 minutes of credits too – they even name the office receptionist… But I wasn’t happy with the outcome. Someone dies, and I didn’t like it. So I went back to a previous save and chose to kill Dimitri then rather than work with him. The result? Another death. A different death, sure, but one that was a …
Played mainly online today. Started off with a bit of Free Play, then Deathmatched for a game or to, before finishing off the session with several rounds of Mafiya Work. The latter of which was actually better than I was expecting, but seemed far too random to require much skill – whoever was nearest the target when it appeared tended to “win”. After that, I was kicked off Live for some reason, so played offline for a bit. I attempted …
Just two levels on this tonight. I’d hoped to have done more, but 2-7 was far too hard. Well, it wasn’t in the end, I was just looking at it the wrong way.
