    I tried to rob a car, the guy got mad so I got out and started a fight, then this random guy in a suit and shades comes along and starts punching me too :D I beat the two of them up, (the close combat isn't great, you can only push and punch at the start), then I got back in the car, and drove off :D

    wait for the stupid HD install :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,259 ✭✭✭Rowley Birkin QC


    Can it be installed on the 360 ShaneU?

    Seeing as your playing my copy from Artane I feel I should know!

    No, and it's my copy :p I asked for it to be reserved a week ago.

    I haven't gotten it (yet) but I imagine that one of the first things I'll do in it is go on a killing spree mowing people down in the car. I mean seriously... doesn't everyone?

    I played a bit of GTA3 recently and that's the first thing I did there...

    Swapped the control system to classic, then swapped it back.

    Woah.

    Right now, I'm watching an animated Ricky Gervais do standup on the ingame TV.

    Crazy stuff. This game has really gone that extra mile so far.

    I tried to fight and got my ass kicked by some old dock worker. Getting the hang of it now just in time for a full days play if I can stay awake

    so you can have X to accelerate?

    Went for a bit of a drive. Real wheel drive cars + physics = :D

    And then I came to work :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,148 ✭✭✭mehfesto2


    Jaysis the driving's mental! Some Hot-rod I nicked handles like a drunk polar bear.
    First thing I did? Chased a pigeon. Then got run over.

    Anyone been online yet? It's a small bit disappointing, I think. Its plays smoothly enough, but the city seems to be too big. Some people just go into hiding!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,080 ✭✭✭✭Tusky


    I played the missions! I havent gone on a rampage or done much exploring. Absolutely loving it so far.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 23,363 Mod ✭✭✭✭feylya


    I need to go home. Trying to figure out what's the quickest way to get there. Must fly through the windscreen again.

    Yes, go into controls in the start menu and swap to classic.

    I went with it for a while but it became clear to me that if you were going to get any good at the driving in this game the new way is the only one that would really work. I'm playing the 360 so I'm using the trigger buttons. The breaking and turning system is a lot less forgiving so the sensitivity of the triggers becomes really useful. The camera is easier to move around too when you get used to it.

    Same. Now I have to do college assignments.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,960 ✭✭✭DarkJager


    I got stuck into the story missions straight away. Little Jacob is a legend :D Anybody else finding its taking a while to get used to the new handling of the cars? I'm starting to get it now but it was very weird starting out..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,285 ✭✭✭Smellyirishman


    That's the thing most people are saying, myself included. Still not used to it yet. Does anyone ever use the handbrake? I use the A button to slid but never touch RB. Never thought I'd actually use the legitimate braking system in a GTA game :)

    First thing i did was ignore my cousin and hooked up with the girl, lol.
    Also Q-Lazzarus's "Goodbye Horses" is in the game's soundtrack, famous for being in Silence Of The Lambs (and parodied by Jay and Silent Bob).

    I'm waiting for the girl to say "Would you f*ck me? I'd f*ck me!, I'd f*ck me hard!" :D:D:D

    VR!
