something interesting... tried some of the Vice City cheat  codes for fun... the Armor code from VC gives you full armor + respect and $250,000 in San Andreas.

The old VC code for "driving on water" (i wanted to check out San Fierro, sue me) works the same, but the minute you set foot on forbidden soil, you get 4 wanted stars. you can't swim over either.  

the "wanted level" code still works though. :P but those 4 stars come back if you stay on land you're not supposed to be on. fun.

There is a robbery van close to CJ's starting house. It's right across the street from the gym, parked in the blue apartments. My favorite neighborhood to rob is Mulholland because it's like stealing from the rich. I haven't found any mansions you can break into yet, but if anyone has, tell me!

    I was playin san andreas, and cj's girlfriend who leaves him for the "gta 3 guy" calls him. She has the wrong number because she calls cj "Claude". That means the gta 3 guy is Claude Speed, the guy from gta 2. I just thought you might want to know

    I have loved everything about the game so far (except that when you are in 2 player mode the 2nd player cannot use health cheats so you can't go around blowing everybody up  :().  It's great that you can go into the bar and shoot pool with a 2nd player, and some of the cheezy arcade games in the bars are pretty fun as well.

    I think that San Andreas is way better than GTA III because of the graphics, color that the game has.

    One of the biggest mysteries in video game history is solved!    
    Claude Speed huh?    

    Yeah,  I was in San Fierro and my cell phone rang and I answered it,  but someone was doing something in the other room, and I didn't hear what was said.  
    Then after it quieted down,  CJ was done talking, and all I heard was;  "Catillina? Hello?.....Stop calling me!!!"  and then it was over.  

    So I guess that is what it was....huh....neat.

    Anyway-- yeah I like the loader ('dozer' as they call it)  because I've wanted Rockstar to put a playable piece of construction equipment in their games since GTA III came out.  
    They closest thing they had to one in Vice City were those two huge excavators at Phils Place, and they were just scenery.
    So when I saw that there was going to be a tractor in this one,  my hopes were raised, and then I saw the screenshot of the dozer,  and finally-after I got the game- found out that there was a forklift, a cement mixer,  4 types of huge playable cranes,  and most impressive of all- a huge mining truck that has a grill that looks remarkably like an old Caterpillar 769.    

    BEST    GAME    EVER.

    And the gameplay is just phenomenal to!   Anything you think you can do,  you can do ....with GREAT detail.  
    You know,  when I post these things about the dozer and the dumper or other things,  it's not to gloat or claim that I thought of them before Rockstar did,  it's to show that I am grateful to Rockstar.   Because they have delivered EVERYTHING I wished for, along with all kinds of new ideas, and SO much more.  

    And the amazing thing to me is,  it is able to provide this experience with out hardly ANY graphical hicups or glitches,  while still being as HUGE as it is.    

    Sometimes i'll stop and be amazed when i'm lost...that i'm LOST!!!

    I haven't got GTA:SA yet, I've got a PC so I'll have to wait a looooooooooong time for it :(
     
    Anyway, I read alot about those Ragdoll Physics before the game came out but haven't seen any comments about it here. Does it make killing people (in the game :P) more fun and realistic or not?

    Now I'll get back to watching my life go by while waiting for SA to come out for the PC.

    Pah, the only thing I've noticed from the ragdoll stuff is that people you run over get stuck on your bonnet/roof more.

    But is it proper ragdoll? do limbs flail? Can you pick them up wiuth the supercharged gravity gun and fling them through the air, arms flying back? Oh wait, HL2 again. GAGH!

    But yeah, most games these days are jumping on the ragdoll bandwagon, which can only be good. After all, when bodies act in a realistic manner.

    Its always fun too. When their on the bonnet, try jamming on the brakes fully.

    Yeah ragdoll looks like it has awhile to go, because the other day I was using a shotgun on my friends and there arms where not flailing as much as they do in GTA:SA, I feel this needs to be tweaked to be accurate.

    Because we all know how a body reacts to gun shots "realistic manner" right Will?

    Of course we don't all know, but there are basic premises we can build on, such as the fact if you pick up someone relaxed (Try it on a g/f sometime), her legs do hang over your arms, and fold via the bone structure. And if she's is really lazy, she'll relax and kinda sink between your arms..

    But yeah, you know, some games take it to extreme rubbery people, others do it well.

    I find little girls tend to flail when you drown them in the sink.

    THAT Scully, is why you hold it there longer. They stop then, making your task easier.

    You can just tie them up though.
