Also a fatal flaw i feel is theres not enough to do with your money. Apart from going to eat / paying tolls, weapons taxis and clothes. Theres nothing.

I feel that they've tried to make this one far too real. I mean i loved owning san andreas and having a unbelievable jet pack. And an airstrip.
You hit the nail on the head. They've gone on record with saying that they wanted this to be more realistic (not too realistic, I mean, c'mon lol). That's why they did away with the mansions, landing strips, helipad, etc. Aside from the insanely rich residents of the Hamptons, these helipads and landing strips generally don't exist in the five boroughs.

That's probably why the pay for jobs is toned down. Not to give anything away, but if it wasn't for that one specific mission, I wouldn't have the six figure loot that I have.

I do agree though. We should be able to do more with the money we have.

I'm about 35% into the game with about 27 hours played.

a tip to get nice cars fairly eearly in the game

complete brucies missions then once done ring him for races when u need new cars. u must have a gun. dont start the race instead go up to the car that u want and shoot the guy in the head u will not be able to steal it while the race is still on. that is why u must shoot him then the race will abandon then u will be able to steal it.
your relation ship with brucie will go down a bit but its worth it.
ps. how do i dump michelle?

I love how you fall out the front windscreen in high speed crashes.

Is anyone else finding it a tad annoying when you got near full health but crash badly on a motorbike and die instantly?

Again, its all too real for me :-(

Yes however you should have the option to put a seatbelt on, :) as it can be very annoying when you die because of it on a hard mission.



Also does anyone know how to hold on to driving veichels. I have seen it in the second trailer where Niko (and it is Niko for sure) holding on the back of a cluckin' bell truck. I know that pedestrians can hold onto your veichel if you drive off and they are holding onto the handle of your car.
Anyone know how to do this?

I noticed if you control your character as he is flying through the air and try not land on you neck, you dont lose as much health..

Yeah I never got the point of all those unboxing videos unless someone is too into roleplaying and likes to pretend to be the person doing the unboxing.

And theres 2 things I've been woundering.

1.)Is there a specific reward for killing all 200 pigeons or is it simply to make it harder to get 100%?

2.)Are there multiple endings? Just a yes or no, I don't want you to put your ending down and potentially spoil an ending for me or anyone else.

Annihilator Helicopter / Kill all 200 Flying Rats
Rastah Color Huntley SUV / Complete 10 Package Delivery missions

I read somewhere that there are multiple endings

I?m pissed that I had the choice to kill one of two people, I chose one and now I cant use him to send me back-up gangbangers... and the other just said, "that?s cold I cant do business with you"?? So I got nothing!!

You get 25 000 for killing Dwayne.
and a safehouse, back-up gangbangers soon, and it means you have good character if you kill playboy x.

playboy x is a little beeatch and I killed him, without reading anything, I made my own decision, same with francis and derrick.

Same, I killed that jackass Playboy and Francis. I figured better a sad old man than a double dealing weasel of a cop.

Haha, I also killed Francis.
I don't need to read the guide or anything to know who to kill, it turns out I picked the right choice both times.

Also, whenever a mission gives me the option to kill someone, or let them be. I also let them be. I read somewhere after the fact, that the game has a better ending and doesn't make you feel morally shitty.

Kill Playboy, you get his pad and befriending Dwayne, he gives you his strip club once you tak it back from its Hispanic Owners... I killed Francis also.. He had too much crap hanging over me...He wants you to kill his own brother for political advancment, what you think he may do to you once he's finished with you...

***Spoiler**

Oh it was really obvious that Michelle was agent. She asked alot of questions about dealers and always made comments about gansters and mobsters.. Also after a couple dates she made a comment about hopeing I wasnt in to that "kinda stuff".. Plus she was too easy to get in bed..
