I'm currently stuck doing the strip joint job for Dwayne and the Mafia job for Packie - with the former I get slaughtered after taking out the first manager and then trying to leg it after the other two.


Ah, I walked into the strip join and got to the back before pulling my gun out, in the area where you get the private dances and started from there. Rather than trying to get in guns blazing. There is a shotgun in the managers office too. The door on ya left as you enter the main room.

The latter, I get cash but on of the other guys ends up getting themselves killed and cuts the mission short. I really fscking despise games where you have stop supposedly smart NPCs gettign whacked - it was my biggest gripe with Kane & Lynch


Don't know what mission that is, not ringing any bells.

Is Kane and Lynch any good? I was going to buy that but got put off by the poor reviews.

And yeah, having to "redo" a mission when you're on the other side of the city a pain - even if there is a cab nearby or I call car service.


Still annoying! Even when the mission starts there is sometimes a drive to the actual location which is a pain.

Anyway, have you tried drunk driving yet? It's hilarious, not least the fact that the police will hunt you down like a dog, yet sober you can cause carnage right under their noses and they take no more action than a quick "whoop" of the siren.


Yeah, got drunk. Tried driving and got arrested and lost all my guns :( didn't do it again. Being drunk is annoying. But it was funny when i was showing my mate and tried to hail a cab and Niko shout out "yellow car" with his arms in the air.

My mate was then chasing taxis on saturday night shouting "Yellow Car" :)

meh, the driving around is the core of the gameplay...if it wasn't the horrible combat would be even more glaring as a flaw, so I don't mind the driving around so much...EXCEPT when I got a call to go on a mandate with someone 2 islands away...you'd think that the times would be adjusted for distance, but no, its a solid hour wether you're 3 blocks away or an entire map away...and the pool minigame kinda sucks...I can't get a decent break to save my life.

All in all, I have to say that this game is now my favorite for most overrated game of all time...I'm not saying its bad, its merely deeply flawed...too flawed to be the highest rated game of all time, which I understand it is.

I tried knocking the dude near the front of the strip club out with the bat, for a slightly more stealthy approach, didn't work though....
