To all you GTA IV players.....

.....what do you think to it, and how far have you got?

i've done about 23 hours game play so far and i'm just about to do elizabeta's mission where you get to unlock the 2nd island...just need to get brucie to like me 100% before i do this mission to unlock an achievement

Played only 11 hours so far, been busy with work, im currently 27% through the game. Im doing Playboy X, Dwaynes and Elizabeths missions, but also waiting on a email about working with the 'lawyers' or summat.

havent you done any of the side missions or tasks? what about scouring the island looking for stunt jumps?

Ive done a few of the side missions, only done a few of the stunt jumps but will do them when all the missions are completed. I wish all my contacts would stop ringing me every 5 seconds to play darts, pool etc and that Michelle is pissing me off, although the comedy club is a treat seeing Ricky Gervais. I think the game is the best one yet just because they have put much more attention to detail than any other.
Have you shot any of the pidgeons yet?

How far you through the game?

im 23% through the game.. just started doing jobs for govt... Have been doing a fair bit of side missions including the police most wanted ones .. think my fav mission so far was the first one with playboy x.. such a class game..

Son_of_duke has completed 28% of the game after 11 hours of play -- I'll get him to post WTF that means, I don't have a clue

i've only shot at 1 pidgeon and done most of the first island mini tasks (i.e. collected brucie's cars, delivered jacob's packages etc). if you get them to like you enough then they offer bonuses...jacob for instance sells cheap guns, cheap ammo and cheap bulletproof vests, brucie will take you on helicopter rides...I've seen loads of pidgeons but i've always been running by, driving by etc and they've all flown off before i've popped them. i've done quite a few stunt jumps and there's a couple of double jumps (go up one ramp, land and then immediately up the second)...there's also one jump i've found where you can only do it on a bike as cars just aint fast enough.

this game far exceeds all expectations which i guess is why i've spent sooo long on it and not got very far (i.e. only on 1st island still)
