DB, you play CoD4 MP on the 360? I was not aware. Hit me up some time and we'll own some fagg0ts in TDM, HQ, or S&D. :up:

I spend no time doing that shit, so all the 'friends' hate me, but I don't give a fuck because the missions are good enough (for the most part). I think one mission required bowling and that's the only time I've done it. I still the the bank robbery is one of the best I've played on almost any game.

yeah i did that bank robbery mission yesterday and it was top notch. i did a few mission today but got side tracked when i saw a Sultan RS drive by. i instantly grabbed the Sultan RS and took it to a safehouse. then as soon as i parked it another one went by. so i grabbed it and parked it. then ANOTHER went by so i did the same. i know that whatever car you're driving will spawn more often but there was seriously a line of 5 Sultan RSs in the street. Then on my way to try and stock another safehouse a NRG 900 appeard so i snatched that and took it back to all the Sultans. Now I have a safehouse with 3x Sultan RS, an NRG 900 and a fucking helicopter :olo:

oh, and i also managed to get another safehouse stocked up on the Sultan RS.

on a related note, has anyone else snagged one of those pimped out Sentinals? Thye're a dark forest green with a spoiler, an aftermarket hood and one of those rear window things that deloreans have. i can't tell if the handle any differently than the regular sultans but they definitely look cooler.

Which safehouse do you have the chopper parked at? on the roof or the street?

it's on the street. it's the safehouse that roman buys you on the east side of the second island. i'll take a pic in a few mins; it's packed pretty tight.

safehouse with helicopter parked on the street:

as you can see having a helicopter parked halfway into the street causes a clusterfuck for traffic. i have a Sultan RS parked on the other side of that dumptruck and the pimped out sentinal i was talking about earlier is parked to the left of the chopper there.
here's a shitty close up side shot of it:

it seems as though it'll only allow you to save your game with 2 vehicles in the parking spots; i was playing for a good 2 hours after jamming that spot with all the cars and bike earlier and they stayed there the whole time. then now when i just reloaded it only saved the first to vehicles i put in the spot; the chopper and the Sultan RS. oh well.

Don't park more than 2 cars at any one safehouse. When you reload the save, you run the risk of one or more of the vehicles disappearing. The problem has plagued the GTA series.

The Sentinels all handle the same, even the pimped out ones. It's a great car. :up:

my personal fav is the Sultan RS. I love the way it handles and sounds. however i have yet to try out the infernus but from what i understand that thing can get sketchy on bumps.

The Infernus handles pretty bad when all four wheels aren't on the ground. E-braking is a problem, too, but nothing beats its acceleration and top speed. The Sultan RS is a great car, but it's a bit stiff when turning. The Banshee is another good high-end car with decent acceleration and good top speed, but it's a bit back-heavy so handling suffers. I would say the Comet is probably the best car. It's got great acceleration, decent top speed, great handling, and it's easily controlled when sliding around turns. Not to mention the fact that since the engine is in the back collisions are less likely to stall it.

I like the Infernus for its novelty (single-rarest car in the game), the Sultan RS for its unique look and feel, the Banshee for the throaty engine and sexy design, and the Comet for all-around travel within the game.

I have 4 of the infernus now, but cannot find a comet anywhere no matter what i'm driving. each time i've had one it's been crashed and stuck doing a stunt jump.

No sultan RS either.

By the way, are the only two comics at the club Katt Williams and Ricky Gervais?
The book mentions several other names, but those are the only two I've seen.

And I finally listened to some of the radio shows while driving around. The judge show on the right wing station has some good lines.

I'm not being funny, but what the fuck guys... Some of you have beaten this already?

I feel shit. Really shit. Because I feel like I put way to much time into playing this some days. And I dont die often either, I'm not bad at it. But I still haven't beat it.

What did you guys do, play it all day since it came out? :p

I spend more time just fucking around with jumps, seeing how crazy of a police chase I can create, etc., etc., than doing missions. I only end up doing 1 or 2 missions each time I play and the rest of the time just doing other random crap. I'm only 52% or so (but that doesn't all go towards main storyline).

Stick close to Star Junction and drive in a nicer car and the Comets will spawn. Williams and Gervais are the only two stand-up comedians at the club, but the book might have mentioned some of the DJs (Lazlow Jones as himself, for instance).
