Started this. Dam this game runs well on my PC. Such a nice feeling after playing Skyrim where it sometimes doesn't feel great. Just did the mission where you drop from, a helicopter into a penthouse. Great song choice. Really feels like a triple A game.

As much as I dislike that song, I did like it in that mission. It was pretty cool when you were standing in the chopper, looking down, and it started playing. I feel like I'm never going to get through this though, so many other games to play, and every time I put this in I just end up doing random things that don't advance the story at all.

Yeah I'm not really a fan of Kanye West either but 'Power' meshed well with the action going on both in the promo trailer and the 'Party Time' mission.
What stations are people listening to anyway? I've been too lazy to make a mixtape but I generally flick back and forth between The Mix and K-12. _________________

About 30% through and loving it. Similarly to a lot of others, find myself doing a lot of stupid shit which isn't really advancing me through the game.

Not bad. Wouldn't mind the same deal for the 360, but I have enough to play anyway.

so I started playing this last night , about 6 hours in and have done three story missions. I don't even have side missions available but spend my time just dicking around.
fucking love it.
Also holy shit the water is awesome, actual waves and wakes off the boat that you can jump on your jet ski. So cool. _________________

I finished it up a few nights ago.
Overall impression is it's pretty awesome, but the last mission really fucked me off. I don't know, it got to the point in the last few missions where it was just a massive cluster**** that didn't feel fun but more obtrusive than anything. Felt rushed and yeah, wasn't happy with it.
Everything else though was pretty awesome, lots of good fun. High tier game, 8 out of 10 or so. _________________

In one of the last missions where you need to choose which 2 projects out of 3 you want to approve as the commander, I chose the tank/hover bike but only the tank showed up in my garage... _________________

spent all weekend on this and barley touched the campaign (I only just got the three new crew members last night before I went to bed)
Best moment so far, base jumping off my cribs helipad just about to land in the smoke ring and get hit by the windshield of a street sweeper landing on it's bonnet, so I started car surfing and doing hand stands.
This is what open world games are all about. _________________

Been noticing that there's a relatively common (seemingly) bug in doing the Duke-Boys style carjacking (and who doesn't, given how much faster it is) - I've died many times doing this, looks like your char is getting caught in the cars outer collision, dealing a shitload of damage very quickly =(
That said, I've still racked up nearly ten hours, mostly just fucking about - only about 16% completed, I think. Car Torpedoing is my new favourite passtime. _________________

Yep. Pretty fuck frustrating when it seems like your car is trying to drive itself into the ground, killing you pretty fuck quickly. _________________

Oh yeah! That too. Man, I wigged out last night when that happened after i jumped on a bke - thought someone was shooting me, but whenever I jumpd off the bike to find and murderate them I'd stop taking damage...
Still, I'll be jumping right back into this when I get home tonight =D _________________

Might do! Although I'm still pretty much right at the start and all weak, as I've been spending money on buying up property so I can make more dosh in the long run. Those upgrades won't buy themselves! _________________

Denny i don't know what you mean by the last few missions losing their way. The game got better as it went and finishes really strongly. Just a warning, this game is bat*** insane. Whenever they thought could we put this in, they just said yes. Also it is the best wrestling game ever made.

It's mainly just the last mission that shit me off (the one where you make one of two choices for an ending), same as my mate Myles too. Everything was everywhere and calling in backup just wasn't working, and the friendly AI even crashed the VTOL and chopper I called in. Was just an amazingly retarded spam fest where they threw everything at you all at once and it didn't stop at any second. Boring and annoying. _________________

There's a few things that don't count towards 100%. I have 100% without doing all the jumps, barnstorming and car-jackings. _________________ Welcome to the internet. Where any joke can turn into WWIII.

Just finished it. There were some (major) annoyances towards the end, but a great game overall! Liked the use of licensed music during certain missions, and the ending was pretty great. I think this will be the first open world game I 100%, I think I'll pick up the season pass too, definitely looking forward to more of this!
Also, chainsawing people while "You're the best around" played had to be one of the most amazing scenes in the game. Love it.

getting towards the end, really wish I'd listened to Karai.
I spent most of the game fucking around doing side missions etc, so now when I start getting awesome shit and the world starts going to shit I've done pretty much everything.
Also zombie island + hover bike is so much win. _________________
