you're probably ahead of me now, buthen I'm wrestling with footie manager too.

Porkpie (porkpie), Wednesday, 17 November 2004 22:20 (nineteen years ago) link

just completed the vigilante missions in the tank, with four stars on my ass all the way it was fucking great fun!

Ste (Fuzzy), Wednesday, 17 November 2004 23:36 (nineteen years ago) link

I've beaten the main story missions. You people are in for some fucking insanity.

MC Transmaniacon (natepatrin), Thursday, 18 November 2004 00:11 (nineteen years ago) link

I think I'm getting towards the end of the san fierro missions now, but I've slowed down a lot, mostly because of Half Life.

Has anyone attempted the 'Beat The Cock' sub mission? Its a crazy Ironman contest against some other blokes, and a dude dressed as a 'cock'. I failed because on the cycling stage the checkpoint was incorrect at telling me to go right and I went tumbling down a cliff.

Ste (Fuzzy), Thursday, 18 November 2004 10:52 (nineteen years ago) link

ste, you're making things up now aren't you ;)

"beat the cock" indeed...

CarsmileSteve (CarsmileSteve), Thursday, 18 November 2004 11:03 (nineteen years ago) link

noooo, its trooo!

Ste (Fuzzy), Thursday, 18 November 2004 11:24 (nineteen years ago) link

aw thanks guys for setting me and katie up!! we made sweet love last night.

ken c (ken c), Thursday, 18 November 2004 11:28 (nineteen years ago) link

Already!? I've been at her for days and i've only just got her car keys. Whats your secret?

Ste (Fuzzy), Thursday, 18 November 2004 11:33 (nineteen years ago) link

keep prodding at it! so to speak. she's there pretty much every day after noon.

also, the crazy bitch likes car crashes

ken c (ken c), Thursday, 18 November 2004 11:35 (nineteen years ago) link

and millie tip! if you turn up to her place in the gimp suit (holding the big dildo possibly works too but i hadn't tried), you guys will just do kinky stuff at her house i.e. you don't even have to take her out!

ken c (ken c), Thursday, 18 November 2004 11:37 (nineteen years ago) link

i went to area 69 last night to check it out...got the 4 stars and went on a wild chase through the desert. ended up launching off the dam into the water. i died.

Big Baby Bingo (Chris V), Thursday, 18 November 2004 11:43 (nineteen years ago) link

When is Millie home? Every time I roll up she's away and my progress meter just keeps going down.

Ste (Fuzzy), Thursday, 18 November 2004 11:58 (nineteen years ago) link

i can't remember actually.. i think it's late afternoon/early evening but i might be wrong!

ken c (ken c), Thursday, 18 November 2004 12:01 (nineteen years ago) link

anyway how come katie likes car crashes and she screams at you to go faster yet the game tells you you're going too fast ?! Fucked up ?

Ste (Fuzzy), Thursday, 18 November 2004 13:10 (nineteen years ago) link

my theory is that you need to bump the car a lot (i haven't succeeded in the cruise yet after a couple of gos - but when you drive her normall and hit something she's all like "omg you're a maniac! i LOVE IT" and "car crashes get me hottt" so i'm guessing that'd be the tactics! i'm gonna try it out when i have a chance)

ken c (ken c), Thursday, 18 November 2004 13:13 (nineteen years ago) link

haha blount, that's how I was with vice city - every time i'd casually pick it up I would boggle at how much there was to do, and so i just never played it. i've found that it's easier to get some momentum going with SA though, after you've gotten a few easy things done the rest just keeps coming and coming. actually, i'm pretty sure it's ruined me for the other two games.

(also ruined: MY LIFE)

\(^o^)/ (Adrian Langston), Thursday, 18 November 2004 14:41 (nineteen years ago) link

i just finished og locs house party mission.. thats funny shit

big chaki (chaki), Thursday, 18 November 2004 21:00 (nineteen years ago) link

I haven't played this for two weeks, it feels like too big of a commitment

M1chael Ph1lip Ph1lip Ph1lip Ph1lip Ph1lip Ann0yman (Ferg), Thursday, 18 November 2004 21:47 (nineteen years ago) link

Can someone help me pass the friggin flight school mission where you have to shoot shit with toreno's fucking copter. i sat there for two and a half hours last night.

Big Baby Bingo (Chris V), Friday, 19 November 2004 11:26 (nineteen years ago) link

details?

Ste (Fuzzy), Friday, 19 November 2004 11:34 (nineteen years ago) link

fly slowly as you approach the trucks, then blast rockets all over until you blow everything up.. then fly to the cars and use the machine gun.

ken c (ken c), Friday, 19 November 2004 11:35 (nineteen years ago) link

this is two hours after i sat for two hours before hand trying to fly the godamn planes through the rings. see my problem is my hands shake and i have a hard time keeping steady.

Big Baby Bingo (Chris V), Friday, 19 November 2004 11:37 (nineteen years ago) link

use the in-cockpit view, sometimes makes it a little easier to get your bearings (like in the boats).

but yeah just blast away as ken says

Ste (Fuzzy), Friday, 19 November 2004 11:40 (nineteen years ago) link

yeah i tried that and it was making me woozy. i had to put the game away or else i was going to throw my ps2 out the fucking window. then i proceeded to yell at my wife because i was pissed off.

Big Baby Bingo (Chris V), Friday, 19 November 2004 11:42 (nineteen years ago) link

if you were woozy you would have had extraordinary luck

ken c (ken c), Friday, 19 November 2004 11:44 (nineteen years ago) link

im going to work on it tonight while i drink many adult beverages.

Big Baby Bingo (Chris V), Friday, 19 November 2004 11:46 (nineteen years ago) link

"learn to fly Carl"

Ste (Fuzzy), Friday, 19 November 2004 11:46 (nineteen years ago) link

then i proceeded to yell at my wife because i was pissed off.

Aw, that's the worst, and I do it too - take out game frustrations on other people in real life. These days I try to make sure I take a bit of time in a room on my own after any GTA session, just to make sure I don't start spazzing out at people who don't deserve it.

JimD (JimD), Friday, 19 November 2004 16:10 (nineteen years ago) link

"Crazy" came on just after I had a bad date with Millie..
I'm crazy, crazy to think my love would hold you... I'm crazy for trying, crazy for crying, I'm crazy for loving you...

I almost cried.

ken c (ken c), Friday, 19 November 2004 16:13 (nineteen years ago) link

Did you take her to the pizza place just around the corner? she threw a cup at me in there.

Ste (Fuzzy), Friday, 19 November 2004 16:23 (nineteen years ago) link

nah, it was the cruising one a few days ago..

take her to the diner just down the hill. she loves that.

ken c (ken c), Friday, 19 November 2004 16:25 (nineteen years ago) link

i feel a bit guilty we're talking about her behind her back like this - discussing the best way to get between her legs whilst she is thinking that she is doing a great job at two-timing us all!!

ken c (ken c), Friday, 19 November 2004 16:27 (nineteen years ago) link

but don't think for a minute that she isn't talking about us to all her mates, so it's all fair.

well I'll be working on Katie at the weekend anyway, I seem to be able to please her quite easily now and I know where her special 'place' is.

Ste (Fuzzy), Friday, 19 November 2004 16:31 (nineteen years ago) link

haha.. oops i confused millie with katie actually!!! (hence the cruising!) how bad a bf am i!

i just turn up to millies in the gimp suit and suddenly i don't have to take her out anywhere!

ken c (ken c), Friday, 19 November 2004 16:33 (nineteen years ago) link

My main problem with this game is that Kev and I can't play it together. We are both so bad tempered and playing it often leads to conversations like -

Him - "Where are you going? Get in the fucking car!"

Me - "I'm trying to!"

Him - "What the fuck are you doing! Shoot him!"

Me - "I'm trying to!"

Him - "Turn left! Left! Hurry up!"

Me - ......."I'm trying to!"

Rumpy Pumpkin (rumpypumpkin), Friday, 19 November 2004 16:36 (nineteen years ago) link

what about the two-player bits?? (i still haven't tried those!)

ken c (ken c), Friday, 19 November 2004 16:38 (nineteen years ago) link

No, I just play alone now, otherwise it ends in tears.

Rumpy Pumpkin (rumpypumpkin), Friday, 19 November 2004 16:43 (nineteen years ago) link

my wife typically just laughs at me when i play....i like to drive off cliffs as shortcuts.

Big Baby Bingo (Chris V), Friday, 19 November 2004 16:45 (nineteen years ago) link

that's a point, actually cars in san andreas take surprisingly little (i.e. zero) damage when they fall off 100 feet high cliffs as long as they land the right way.

ken c (ken c), Friday, 19 November 2004 16:49 (nineteen years ago) link

yep. are all the casino's open in venturas? I can only find one thats open.

Big Baby Bingo (Chris V), Friday, 19 November 2004 16:51 (nineteen years ago) link

The difference between me and my flatmate Tom is that when he fucks things up in GTA, he finds it funny. When I fuck things up, it makes me angry. So, when one of us is playing and the other is in the room, converstaions generally go:

(Tom playing)
Tom: oops, haha.
Me: FUCK! THE FUCKERS! YOU DIDN'T DESERVE THAT! SHIT!
Tom: haha.

Or

(Me playing)
Me: AAAAARGH! FUCK! SHIT!
Tom: haha.
Me: FUCKING SHUT IT!

JimD (JimD), Friday, 19 November 2004 16:51 (nineteen years ago) link

Yeah, I find things like not being able to get on my bike, when you press triangle and CJ goes running manically down the road in the opposite direction on the vehicle you want to enter, etc remarkably funny and I dissolve into giggles, whereas he's sitting there fuming giving it

"FUCK SAKE JUST GET IN THE CAR AND STOP FUCKING AROUND WHAT ARE YOU LAUGHING AT"

I think Tiger Woods 2005 is much better for his kind of temperament.

Rumpy Pumpkin (rumpypumpkin), Friday, 19 November 2004 17:42 (nineteen years ago) link

! but when your putt misses by half a centimeter!!

ken c (ken c), Friday, 19 November 2004 17:50 (nineteen years ago) link

Aaargh!

Rumpy Pumpkin (rumpypumpkin), Friday, 19 November 2004 17:56 (nineteen years ago) link

I've only been in two casinos, the others are just hotel suites.

Ste (Fuzzy), Friday, 19 November 2004 18:42 (nineteen years ago) link

(and me and katie just had the fuck)

Ste (Fuzzy), Friday, 19 November 2004 18:43 (nineteen years ago) link

New Grand Theft Auto will rob you of your life
