is it true you can get loaded at the bars and walk around in this game?

Yup and its fun! You can barely walk first of all and driving is a real challenge. But everytime you leave a bar there is a cop nearby so the moment you start driving they come after you. Its so hard to drive and the screen becomes all distorted and blurry. Its nauesating but helarious.

I just did the Three Leaf Clover Mission. Failed it the first time because I went to quickly and died. But 2nd time was a breeze. And the payout was good!

This is obviously a must buy game for any Xbox 360 or PS3 owner.

Status: offline 		Well, after playing a few hours at the weekend, I agree AND disagree that it deserves all those perfect 10s. It does, because it is without a doubt the best game ever made, for any system, full stop. HOWEVER... It's hard to justify a perfect 10, when features have been left out (significant ones) that were in previous games...

No character customisation, except clothes (and there are only like 4 clothes shops on the entire map), so no gym, no tattoo parlour, No hairdressers.
No PLANES!!!! Gutted, only helicopters.
No Taxi missions (except the ones you can get from Roman)
No purchasable property (this used to be a great way to get rich and stay rich)

Apart from those things, yeh, it's the perfect game. Particularly mind blowin is the inclusion of several hours of TV you can watch. Some of it downright hilarious. The comedy routines by real famous comedians are great, and the radio shows are better than ever. Getting drunk is great, and the mini games are really well done too (bowling, pool, darts, etc). I'm glad dancing to impress your date has gone, that was a nightmare, especially if playing drunk.

Here's a fantastic resource for all you GTAers...full map showing everything discovered so far. Unlock the helicopter gunship by killing all the flying rats. I hate pigeons, so I really like this.

Did the Three Leaf Clover Mission on my 2nd try. You gota take your time, use the M4 carbine. It works well. Use blind Fire! and Gernades.

Armour is pretty much vital with this mission, and you gotta take your time.

Pretty big payout tho .

Now to my question, what the hell am I supposed to do with $400K+++ ..!?

I agree, the game falls short on many of my expectations but I still find myself playing for hours.

Armor Is vital for ever mission IMO. I always go and buy it before i do one. Just dont die w/ 400k, it will take out a huge percentage.

There are no jets- that was ok, the stars go away after you leave that red and blue flashing area- that was ok, there are no hydralics or nos- that was ok but there is no car customization... I can see myself getting board of this game very quickly. I hope saints row 2 will be better because the car cuustomization in the first was hot.

Its better to die rather than getting busted, it can be very expensive to replace all those guns.

Anybody find a good spot for a stand off with the cops? So far each time i try i dont get very far.
