  1. Strength: Start a mission from Gerald or Simeon (while on it you can't be wanted usually - don't do the mission, just drive around while it's active). Find a bus and use a car to climb on top of it. Keep stamping on top of the bus and hope you don't fall off. Because the driver will never get out, it counts as a punch/kick on target. Only takes about 15 mins of stamping to max it out :). If you're lucky the driver will get the bus stuck somewhere stationary and you can stamp away.

    Shooting: Start gun range on your own, unlimited events. Do minigun random targets over and over. Only shoot your own targets. I think you get 1% for every 100 hits and it's pretty easy to get 50 every 30 secs so you can effectively get 100 bars in 100 mins. You'll make a small amount of RP when doing this too.

    Stamina: Just gotta run around. Still goes up if you're not mashing X, but I think it's based on distance rather than time so the further/quicker you run the quicker it'll go up.

    Lung Capacity: Swim underwater. No shortcuts with this. Takes an hour or so.

    Driving: Do the airport race over and over (solo) in an Adder. Set it to 5 or 10 laps. Will take no more than 10 mins to go up 25% or more.

    Stealth: Start a mission then just sneak around and stealth kill pedestrians. You won't get wanted so you can do it over and over. Think you need to stealth kill 200-300 people to max it out, though sneaking around in stealth mode will increase it a little bit too.

    Flying: Do a solo flying race (heli's, maybe the one at paleto bay) with 5 laps. Don't take any damage and try to set a new personal best every time (take your time to start with then gradually get quicker). Should max out in an hour or so.

  2. Uncharted 3 is my favourite game ever. I think. I nearly always say that after I play something to 100% completion, but I still have an urge to play through all 3 games again. That's how good they are. How Naughty Dog went from Crash Bandicoot to that is amazing :D


  3. That's what makes football so interesting though. Teams can play like Stoke (or Chelsea, same thing) and hoof it up the pitch constantly waiting for someone to get a knock down. They can pass it and create openings like Spain/Barca, they can play quick passing, wing-play based football like Real Madrid/Bayern Munich, they can just defend with plenty of men behind the ball and play for free kicks or penalties (like any of Roy Hodgson's teams)... Spain do it a way that is incredibly effective. Portugal matched them for 105 minutes but it's impossible to keep closing people down for longer than that, and that's why Spain absolutely battered them in the second half of extra time. At the end of the day, you'd rather watch your team win 1-0 in every game and win the league than have exciting games that end 4-4...


  4. Spain were immense. Dunno how anyone can get bored of watching them. So what if they don't attack and score 8 every game? Neither do England, and England are NOWHERE NEAR to their level. They keep the ball, tire out the opposition and have the talent to pick out a ridiculous pass for a tap in almost whenever they want. Glad they won again and really can't see anyone stopping them in the near future with the young talent they just keep rolling out.


  5. Any of you got MSN Messenger (or Windows Live as it's now known)? I've got a few people from here on there but if anyone else fancies a random chat (outside of the forums), feel free to add me. Post your email/ID here too if you want others to add you. I might be changing my email address soon though so if you don't add me, you'll miss out! :french:

    UPDATE: As promised, my email address has now been changed. PM me if you'd like to add me.


  6. As much as I hate Ronaldo as a person, he is an absolutely brilliant athlete and footballer. Did you ever see "Ronaldo: Tested To The Limit"? Think it's on YouTube now. Watch it. Unreal. He does all sorts of stuff like volleying a ball in pitch black after seeing it kicked from 20 yards away for half a second. Insane skillz.


  7. I'm with you Bones, I probably wouldn't buy the DLC just for multiplayer stuff. It's a fun game, but I prefer the SP to the MP and there's not gonna be any new SP levels. Maybe a new arcade mode or something would be fun, but for a new map I don't think it's worth it. That said, I've played more of Max Payne 3 than any other game in the last 6 months. It's a brilliantly made game, but people just weren't that interested. I think Rockstar messed up by showing off the GTA V trailer before MP3 launched.


  8. It's not even worth getting pissed off. He clearly got told to write something controversial to get an increase in traffic, and that's what he did. Really we shouldn't even link to that article because it'll only get more publicity...

    That said, he's a fat retarded looking inbred proud american who only recently lost his virginity to his father. (Robert Beames, not Qdeathstar, everyone knows he lost his virginity a few months ago)

  9. It may be best for you to run websites related to future or soon to be released games. A website about a series could work, but I know from experience that your site would get the most traffic in the lead up to the games launch and then within the few months after release. For a fallout website you might be best just building a site around the newest game in the series rather than covering all of the old games and content too.

    Either that or you could do a site covering the whole series, but keep it up to date with the latest news as you add the older content.

    My CMS is definitely built with guides in mind and there are categories and subcategories to allow guides to be organised in more than just date submitted, but I can add more filters and categories to go along with whatever is needed.

  10. If the website is quite guide-based, I can always modify the CMS or the homepage to make it look similar to iGTA rather than iGTA5. That's one of the points I was getting at. The more features I build into the CMS, the more features there will be for everyone to choose from. Then from admin you can just choose which home page you want on the site. iGTA5 (blog style) or iGTA (block style).

    I'm glad there's some interest though. Running the website is fairly straight forward once it's all set up. It'll automatically post news articles to Twitter and Facebook, automatically submit pages to Google for indexing, it'll be optimised for search engines so eventually you should start showing up quite high up in google. Images can be uploaded, renamed, re-categorised and even hidden from the gallery all without reloading the page.

    I need to make some changes to the iGTA5 CMS first, but once I'm happy with how everything works, it should be pretty simple to turn it into a re-usable CMS which can be used across many sites without much need for tweaking.

    Also I don't mind if some of you want to run websites which won't be very active, e.g. Agent, or Skate as DiO mentioned. Once they're set up they're not really gonna require much work from me so the more the merrier. Can build up a decent network of websites.

    Also Marney, you should definitely stick Google Adsense on your website. It creates ads based on the keywords on your pages, so it's somewhat relevant, and they pay pretty well. I generally see a 0.5% to 1% click rate, so the more traffic you get, the more you'll make.

    The only issue I haven't covered so far is forums. I'm not sure how that would work. We have to pay for a license for Invision Power Board, and some of the main website features are tied into IPB (login system, admin authentication etc), so if you wanted a standalone forum on your own site, you'd have to cover the costs of the yearly license (which is something like $60 a year I think). If you didn't want a forum and just wanted a website then that wouldn't be a problem, but if you do want your own forum, it's something to bear in mind. Otherwise it's possible to set up sub forums on iGTA5.com or something for each individual hosted site although that's not ideal for various random sites, it saves on costs and means everyone can use the same login on all sites.
