i finally got san an (for pc) about a month ago

finished the missions on it and now am extremely bored with it for some reason

ohh yea - bout 67% completed too

just wondering if anybody feels the same way - ie finished the missions and then cant really be bothered finishing it further

i reckon it tells something about the games - i reckon a game like san an should be a little less complex and then like only have the last mission available when the game will be completed 100%

like the last sweet mission only available when the completion of that mission will mean you complete the game 100%

yea.............

what do ewes people reckon

(im just really bored at the moment - finished uni and now cant be bothered working but i dont have anything to do at home and i have to work to pay off my car!!)

I'm over the series since half way in Vice City. Sure the games are big but they got repetitive after about 10 hrs of game play (mission or freeplay). Plus once you can figure out the AI (which isnt much) there is no more fun. Better spend your time playing online games, at least you play with real people.

get a job mate, get rid of that excel! :P j/k

I've got GTA:SA on PS2 and I haven't played it for a while so I'm not sure what % I've done but I'm up to the first mission on the 3rd island. I'm not gonna go over to Las Venturas yet until I finish a few other things in San Fierro (like photo ops) and even Los Santos (havent gone over all the other gang tags for one). The last thing I remember doing to waste time (instead of doing missions) was doing up cars at Wheel Arch Angels.

I can't answer your question for GTA:SA, but when I finished the last mission in GTA3 I stopped playing the game cause I couldn't be f**ked doing all the little missions etc which make up the 100%, thats why with San Andreas I'm trying to finish all the side missions on the first two islands before I move on to Las Venturas.

Either way, it's given me hours upon hours of entertainment, I think it's an awesome game.

BTW, have you noticed those cars (forget the name) that look like R32s (with no spoiler and with R34 tail-lights)? And ones that look like 180SX, Supra, 300ZX etc? Or is it just me? lol

I love this game, only out of the ps2 at the moment because of Pro Evo 5. :D

It does step down a level after the story is completed, but instead of trying to do all the mini missions at once I go drifting with the 32. :) I have done all the tags, about 20 oysters & all the horseshoes, and 2 photos. :D

100% with the first girlfriend, the crackwhore s**t one, she's annoying. I love CJ's comments to his girlfriends when they talk shit. For real baby? :lol:

It aint that bad, first gf shit me (cause was too busy so kept losing progress) so I just stopped going there for awhile, just do that when your ready, get 100% then you dont have to see the bitch again. Turf wars dont last forever and at first you have to go to the gym a fair bit but once you get 100% muscle you dont really have to go back that often. You know you wanna plaaaaaaay :D

I used to love this game on Xbox, I've finished about 99.5% of it and can't find the last 0.5% that I'm missing! The only thing that I haven't done is all the unique jumps; I have one left and can't be stuffed going through them all again just to find the one that I've missed. But I've read on the net that you don't need to do all the jumps to complete the game 100%. Also I can't excersise at the gym anymore! It always says "You've worked out too much, come back tomorrow" even though I haven't been to the gym, or done too much swimming or running before hand. A glitch perhaps?

"Me fail english? But that's umpossible!"

I got this game the day it came out, and ive since clocked over 150 hours on it. ive got 80% on it because I cant be f**ked finding all the clamshells, horseshoes, photos, hidden jumps, tags ect. Its just such a big game ive been able to get that much time in. that said, im am extremely sick of it now and really need a new game. I was getting so bored with it that ive got drifting down to an art with it.. elergy and clover are the best cars for it..

Guess what? Nearly EVERY car is based on real life cars. There's Chevys, Fords, Holdens, Nissans you name it. Yeah there's a R32, I can't remember which car it is but if you have the PC version of it I can upload my text file which contains all the car names changed to their real life names so when you play it says the real names instead of the SA names.

Some I can remember:

Banshee = Dodge Viper RT

Turismo = Ferrari F40

Cheetah = Ferrari 512

If you don't believe me check for yourself. :)

Turismo:

Ferrari F40:

http://perso.wanadoo.fr/enzo-ferrari/photo.../F40/F40-28.jpg

Search for car images on google of these cars if you want more proof. Banshee is easy to tell. Cheetah, too... since I can remember them. :rofl:

Anyone interested in the conversion to the real car name's text file?

    • Did you get any down time over Christmas, or have you had any since to play with this? Or have you given up and are trying to get yourself a second hand V8SC instead?
    • A random thought I had just before I hit "Submit on this post". If brake fluid, in a container in my garage that has never been opened goes bad after 18 months, why can I leave it in my car for 24 months in an "unsealed container"... Secondly, some other digging, and brake fluid manufacturers seem to be saying 5 year shelf life... Me thinks there line on 18 months for an unsealed bottle is pretty much horse shit marketing spin. Kind of like how if you drive a car and don't run a turbo timer your turbo and motor will die horribly...   Where I started on this though... Someone (me) started down a bit of a rabbit hole, I don't quite have the proper equipment to do Equilibrium Reflux boiling per the proper test standards. I did a little digging on YouTube, and this was the first video I found on someone attempting to "just boil it". This video isn't overly scientific, as we don't have a known reference for his test either. Inaccuracy in his equipment could have him reaching the 460 to 470f boiling point range in reality. In the video, using a laser temp gun, he claims his Dot3 that's been open in his florida garage for over a year gets to about 420 to 430 fahrenheit (215 to 221c) Doing some googling, I located an MSDS for that specific oil, and from new, it claims a dry boiling point of 460 to 470f. Unfortunately they don't list a wet boiling point for us to see how far it degraded toward its "wet" point. While watching it I was thinking "I wonder what the flash point is..." turns out its only 480f for that specific brake fluid....   As for testing the oil's resistance, I might not be able to accurately do that unfortunately. Resistance level will be quite a LOT higher than my system can read I suspect based on some research. However, I might be able to do it by measuring the current when I apply a specific voltage. I won't have an actual water % value, but I'll have some values I can compare between the multitude of fluids. I'll run some vague calculations later and see if I should be able to read any reliable amount of current. These calcs will be based on some values I've found for other oils, and see how close I'll need my terminals together. From memory I can get down to 1pA accuracy on the DMM. I don't think my IOT Power Tester has any better resolution.    
    • No, with a twin plate clutch flywheels and clutch pressure plate/friction disks go together. Only clutch where that isn't the case is the Uniclutch but they currently don't make a pull version for the Getrag R34, just some other cars. Personally the flywheel is as light as I'd want it to be. It already drops revs faster than I want to shift normally and I blip the throttle again to rev match on upshifts.
    • Are there any other lighter flywheels that can be used with nismo coppermix twinplate system? Id like to gave the revs pick up faster than oem
    • RB20/25 covers don’t have threaded fasteners stock like RB26 covers. They are blind rivets so I will need to drill out and tap threads. I bought some M4x6mm button heads and will report back once done if I chose correctly length wise.    have also got some loctite
