Can't we wait with that till next year. Then he can update the leaderborad...and I have to get 100% so I can add a couple of other records

 

[Spuds725]

I will try and do one in 2 days---- about 48 hours from the time on this post (sunday for me)-- is that enough time??

I'd get your records up soon, so Jimmy has time to update the book prior to me updating the stats-- I can only go off whats in the book.


ps sorry I haven't updated lately, there haven't been alot of records posted until recently--

...geting sick of VC... sigh

I WANT TO PLAY SAN ANDREAS DAMMIT!!!

I tought you fancy Driv3r

Why don't you just buy a used one or a new one. They are cheap.

 

[Blackbird.]

I'm going to ask for one for X-mas.

1. For filler in my list since it's only consisting of 2 items so far.
2. I'm broke, and if I asked my parents they'd give me the routine "Christmas is coming soon".

I guess most of the parents would say that...

I am thinking of going out tonight and buying The Getaway ( the older version thats like 20 bucks ) just to change it up a little....its an ok game, and can keep you occupied for awile

Sounds great mate! 👍

Thanks

I wonder if i can retain my 1st place

 

[Cosmic]

I'm glad if I get into the top 10.

 

[Emohawk]

I just like having my first place records that are almost three times the size of the second place ones.

 

[Spuds725]

Jimmy hasn't updated the recordbook yet-- I was going to update the rankings in a few hours.... should i wait til the next update?? Might be a while til I have the time to do this again-- likely 2 weeks-- it takes me a while so I need time to do it all at one time--

time is my enemy (when you have a 3 year old and a 7 month old)---

Oh, and I forgot to mention.... we are expecting another kid in late March/early april of next year.... the last one.... I swear... --- this one will free up more time....right???

I did that, too. I finished the game, and got bored really quickly in Free Roam.

I'm having substantial computer problems. Hope to be fixed by early December.

Wow. You guys just keep going and going.

I'm calling Energizer. Expect an offer for their next commercial.

 

[Small_Fryz]

Record book updated now spuds!

👍

Congrats on your new to be kid again! 👍

 

[GrandpaLonghair]

this one will free up more time....right???

In a word..NO! You should know better than that.
Seriously, congrats to you. 👍
I had the good sense to stop at two kids .

P.S.- If I really had any sense, I wouldn`t have ANY kids.

Wow, you’re a machine! Congrats, I think…

[Emohawk]

Congratulations, Spuds, you are not sane. ;D

 

[Spuds725]

Thanks for the words....

Kids are a blast (most of the time)....

Here is my 3 year old trick or treating at his first house--first time he's gotten into it (too young last year)-- he had a ball.

 

[Jimmy Enslashay]

Congratulations, Spuds. You're a true machine. No wonder you held that "Times 'Scored' with a Girl" record.

Ive had a look @ spuds lovely stats. My only short commings are killing records. Why? Because they require to much time and i find them "boring". Maybe if i had a better technique like trusty grandpa's, but my rampages suck most of the time

I have no idea how you stay alive for so long and manage to eat as well.

Thats why i love racing records, they dont require as much total playing time. They are more skill, though im not saying killing records dont need any skill, just less than racing records imo. No matter how good at killing I am, im not about to beat 80,000 kills and 40,000 blown up heli's anytime soon, yet i can go back and beat T.Vercetti's 1:24 in City Circuit in probably 20min if i had the "skill". Ive come close a few times but kept hitting cars .

I tell you what race gets instant respect from me. Backroad wanderer. OMG has to be the toughest race to get a clean perfect run and judging by T.Vercetti's time, he is very close to a perfect run, if not the perfect run . Then Freeway is a close 2nd i think, very tough also. ah! cant forget Heli Hell, that is extremely tough.

I know i've asked before but what is the fasetest way to get the Sunshine auto's and super angel in VC?

I may have a go at some of KM's precious records , though i dont know if i can beat them.

Edit. I just wish the super angel never existed!!, then it wouldnt mater as the hotring racer is always available once you get sunshine autos.

 

[Jimmy Enslashay]

To get the Super Angel, I believe you just have to steal one of the bikes at the starting line that the Biker's are on, and instead of completing the race, putting it in the garage? I'm not exactly sure, but this is just from the top of my head.

Grandpa's trusty technique is stamina. Have fun.

Spuds had a method using Cone Crazy to gain money fast, I believe. He'll be able to explain better.

I may have a go at some of KM's precious records

We've all been there, we've all failed. Trust me. I had some practically perfect Chopper Checkpoint runs in all of the Vice City Chopper races, and I still barely came close on any of them.

I challenge you to have a crack at my Cone Crazy (clean) time, though. I'm quite proud of that one.

 

[Small_Fryz]

I know how to get the super angel, just want to know the fastest way to get to that mission.

Back before the days of the super angel i held my own in the hotring racer

I may not be able to beat the heli records, but I'll give the racing ones a good shot.

 

[CAMAROBOY69]

GTA:SA on the PS2. Yeah I actually dusted off and pulled out the PS2 again.
I havent played this game in exactly a year so I decided to pick it up again this weekend. I spent sat night and most of sunday playing this again. I forgot how fun it was and now I am around 50%. I lost interrest last year because so many other great games came out so I ended up playing them. Anyway im back on GTA:SA again for a while. Well at least for a couple weeks until some great games are released this month. 👍
Got my pilot license and now all the properties opened up on the 3rd island. I just got the new girlfriend that I am supposed to eventually get a card from. I also just did my first sky dive mission at the dam.

Here is what KM did to use the super angel in street races and "the driver"...

You have to play the game up to that point then keep a save right before that mission...

Play the game up to shakedown-- Doesn't take too long about 90 minutes or so.... I believe the last mission you have to do for cortez is "sir yes sir"-- if "all hands on deck" gets opened, you don't have to do this to continue the storyline--- just try to do all the diaz missions as soon as they become available--....

Do the conecrazy trick if you don't have much money and get enough to buy the malibu and SSA....

Either after shakedown or some point after you open the 2nd island, kent paul callls you and opens up love fist... do lovefist to open up biker missions---

YOu can't save the super angel so you have to keep a save at this point to use it with all the races available-- just save across the street at the Skumhole shack... start the mission and steel one of their bikes....then drive to the malibu or SSA to race there... by the time you get there, the other bikers should finish the race and you will get the "failed" message so you can start a new mission..... for "the driver" you can't park too close to the malibu or it will disappear.

Same with "alloy wheels of steel"

You can't save the bike but you can repair it.... I think you can do the garage repair trick on the bike too just can't reload the "super" qualities after saving.

Remember not to save over this save point-- make a back up in case you do it accidently....

I like a save here anyway because you can do any asset or Vercetti mission from this point.

Spuds.

 

[Small_Fryz]

Thanks spuds 👍

I have a few GT4 commitments to do presently but when i find some extra time i will get myself up to this point 👍

 

[GrandpaLonghair]

Man, I don`t know how you guys stand those races. I`d rather play with a box of rocks than run those things again. Oh well, whatever floats your boat.
Stay tuned, `cause I`m gonna show you all what "stamina" is all about; I`ll be updating my killing & crime records in a couple of months or so (providing my xbox doesn`t explode or something).
