Rhiannon's (girlfriend) cousin is on one of the radio stations in this game. His band, Deluka.

Had a quick play this morning. Was in a chopper at FLA3000gazillion feet. Collided with the police chopper (bit embarrassing, considering I should know better!), the rotor blade of the police helicopter cut the tail of my helicopter clean off. It was a long way to fall.

Made me smile though.

Spoilers for final mission within!

Spoiler Alert! - Highlight below to read!

Did anyone have to redo this one? After driving halfway round the city listening to Jacob and Roman whine like bitches, I battled my way through the yard, and the building, then down the dock, and it says 'Get on the bike'. Because I took too long getting there it failed the mission there and then. Luckily you restart at the beginning of the gun battle but of course my armour and ammo are running low. Nevertheless I made it through again, managed to stay on the bike, and hit the jump. I got the message that says to use X to fire the minigun, which I did, only to find that the boat was fast getting away. Cue a moment of realisation - I'm the one flying the damn chopper! Too late, it's now a submarine. Roman and Jacob - useless. I guess after you've fled a gun battle to get a helicopter you've done enough. Sod flying it when it counts!

Couldn't be arsed with it after that - because I was in the water I couldn't answer my phone to replay the mission so it would have meant doing the driving bit again, as well as going to get armour and ammo. I'm all for having to replay the missions if I died because of my own mistake, but to fail simply because of how the game works is a bit tight.

I'm sure I'll get it done tonight, unless Roman executes me or something.

End Spoiler Alert!

One cool thing I noticed the other day was when driving an emergency vehicle with the blues and twos going cars do pull over to the side of the road to get out of the way

a small thing but cool all the same.

They tend to shift if you hold the horn down too, but it's not quite so effective!

aye, that can be great until you get some 'tard that just pulls out in front of you!

One of the most annoying (and funny) things in the game is when you're bombing it over a bridge inbetween lanes of traffic and people just change lanes for the hell of it. Even the cops do it, and not one of them indicates. Inevitably, you tend to knock their rear bumper slightly.

Can be pretty irksome though if it is a cop and you're in the middle of something important. Fleeing one-star wanted ratings really is a chore.

I like how the cops give a short siren if you cut them up, or are seen driving stupidly infront of one.
