Okay I thought since we basically all love GTA and we are more or less all getting th game. I thought we could make things a little interesting. Lets have a contest, a race persay, first to 100%. You can do anything you want, use strategy guides, cheats (which wont let you get to 100%), or whatever else. When you do it just put your hours on the forum...dont worry you dont have to time it the game will do that for you. But I just thought I would make this a bit more fun. And since we are going by hours taken to beat the game instead of a specific day, you can start whenever you want and still be the winner, so dont be in a rush to go out and get the game. Good Luck everyone, it should be a hard one---but fun non-the-less.

ITS OUT in a couple hours...lets the games begin.

And lets try to help one another with the game...if you have any questions or tips just put em here...

And if they lie?

Sorry but pretty pointless in my view, seeing as not many have replyed

They haven't replied because they are all brainwashed by the game.

The game isnt out yet in England when it does i bet alot of people are going to skive off work and i be one of them lol

Buscuit already has the game. Has had it since yesterday, the lucky bastar*!!!!

I have it too...its pretty good, skipped school

its out? No fair!!

at least u have a playstation!

First thing I did was high-jack a lear jet and flew it to las vegas and made the jet (and my life) go BOOM...I love being able to fly...such a good game, incredibly good. Being able to jump over stuff and swim is such a big improvement...as well as working out and boosting the "sex appeal" oh yeah

Supposedly you get shot at by Fighter planes if you steal the lear jet.

COOL

*****************************
first of all i think it'd take about a yr to beat it...

second people could just lie

third i think its good to play the game and explore and have fun. if you race you skip all the fun and plus if you take too long exploring and you are tryint to race, the game records all that extra time....


just my opionion

peace

No it turns out we flew over a no fly zone...so that why we got shot down

Okay its kinda low but I think it is pretty good....I am currently at 11.76%
How am I doing so far???

im at 0% cause i havnt got the game, i havnt even got a ps2

im thinken about gettin a ps2 when i have the money

21% so far

i dont know if its worth it really. Because if u wait for like 6 months then it will come out for pc and 1. you wont have to spend 150 dollars on a playstation and 2. you can play the game without "buying" the game. but thats just me im a dirty liar lol. im not getting a PS2 because there are no other games excpet san andreas that interest me and i dont see a new grand theft auto coming soon so its kinda pointless spending 200 dollars just to play one game if u can wait for 6 months and spend ten times less...

haha ur ugly!

There aint a lot you can do to improve that rating.

Even though there is...

Well its now at about 90%, i am in a nice car!

See...there was something you could do to change it alot

Thats kinda stupid really. But heh, at least its easy to change it!

I am up to 57.75% now

update 29.95% in 25hrs (did muck around in los santos for ages)

looks like your winning, how many hours you be going?

Err....63.19% and 41 hours. I leave it on all the time though, as a lot of my housemates just go round killing people without actually doing the story.

Way behind in percent but oh well, I am at 32.02%

I was guessing with that last percentage and playing time, just did a couple of missions and then looked:

66.21% complete
38:24 hours

13.85%

What?

What is the 'What?' for?

that...

Whats confusing about that?

35.69% Complete
16:55 hrs

Okay i have finished all the missions, including Zeros (I did Supply Lines on my third try, without any help! Wasn't as hard as i thought.)

73.80%
50.28 hours

If there were words to describe my hate towards you, then i would have probably said those words by now!

I am the best........i am the best...........i am the best.....

Zoggy is the worst...........Zoggy is the worst...........Zoggy is the worst.....

I'm just taking my time, having fun with the game, but at dead on 8 hours playtime I'm at 6.42%

i haven't played for 4 days, my friends said i was addicted and bet i couldn't do it , ill go back to it tomorrow thou

Im gonna run you down with my mountain bike... and beat the remaining corpse of what is left of you with my friggen can opener!

Just try it Zoggy. I ain't scared of no-one.......(especially you)

Well we all know if someone does make it too be 100% done it will most likely be GTA3 God or me cause the rest of you suck bad at it or are just too slow.

What you up to then Blackmist?

I'm not playing it much at the mo. The side missions are a bit boring (As usual)

Well I'm got gonna do it either.

I don't want to do all those taxi, cop, and pimp extra missions.

Yeah, i hate ambulance missions.

Vigilante missions are fun in the Hunter. Thats it.

Taxi and Fire missions are boring.

I haven't even attempted Pimping missions, but might do that when my guy has a yellow suit from Didier Sachs.

i hate all those extras. sooo boring!

The Pimping missions aren't as bad as the taxi, firefighter, or ambulance missions.

Cause now and then, one of your hos will be getting raped and ya gotto save them, and the guy(s) that are raping them sometimes have shotguns or D-Eagles. So that can be entertaining for alittle.

instead of those taxi and firetruck missions where u just drive around they should make u like do missions for the fire department like normal missions and then u get the extra thing!
