    two words; weight mod... make all the gold weigh 5 lbs. in the GECK or something :D...

    here's another theory idea i had at one point... when father elijah comes down to the vault, slowly walk towards the force field he goes through and drop all the gold by the door... then, finish off elijah, then run all the way around, THEN quickly walk over towards that force field and see if it's possible to grab something that is nearby in the short amount of time it takes before the elevator locks you down there... you might be able to drop all gold bars there, considering that all of them can be dropped as a single grouped item...

    i think i have a save near that point, and i might try to test that theory someday....

    8 is the magical number... stash everything you can in a trash can near the fountain before you enter the madre... you can bring a few items but, keep your weight to near 20 lbs before you leave, including the unique outfits and items within the madre that you don't want to lose... basically, compensate for 4 lbs. worth of vera's dresses and another 2 lbs. for father elijah's robe... the rest of the weight can be determined by you...

    i wasted another 8 lbs. on the holorifle... it's the only item i entered the sierra madre with...

    also, don't forget that you can leave a bunch of stuff inside the crates near the elevator in the vault... so you can pick them up on your way out of the vault after dealing with elijah ;)... so, don't be afraid to approach the vault elevator with a bunch of weight... you can stash it away before you navigate the vault level, but don't forget about it on your way out, lol...

    so you know for a fact that outfits unlock based on performance during cases?? i haven't heard that one yet... while i do expect some to be like that, i just hadn't heard anything from R* about that... i know you'll have outfits at each desk but, i am not so sure if you can wear your beat-cop outfit to a homicide :lol:...

    so, movie films and badges (gamestop pre-order) to collect, eh?? at least there will be something to do when wandering around the city... i like how the police scanner is in the cars, giving you the opportunity to participate in a random crime... while the game sounds very linear, at least there are things that distract you a little bit...

    i wonder how many outfits cole has, or can unlock... and i wonder how they will handle unlocking them... like RDR in that you need to acquire or complete certain objectives, or perhaps like GTAIV where there's a fedora shop just down the road...

    looking at the trophy list, i might be able to finally get a platinum trophy for a R* game... i bet if i applied myself a little more i could get one for RDR but, GTAIV is out of the question... LA noire looks possible though...

    it wastes a lot of energy cells though... 15 per shot... that's the gripe i have with the tesla-beaton as well, it takes 45 electron charge packs per shot... i found it with my energy weapons chick last week but, found it to be not worth carrying with me... nevermind the 12 hardened sentrybots i had to fight to get it but, i have more effective energy weapons in my arsenal like the YCS/186, pew pew, and the multiplas...

    still haven't heard an official word from bethesda or obsidian on the rest of the add-ons... i thought they were going to make a formal announcement last week... maybe it's meant for this week... i hope it's fucking soon, this is too long of a wait... so much so that it seems like new vegas was yesterday's news...

    100 on positive rep should be "Suckle the Awesome from My Teats." Also, I like that my nigga bOnEs has the second highest rep on the forums. He'll kick some ass this year if we ever have an FML, he might even beat QD's penis.

    wow, my 14 is in second?? for the first time in my life i am popular!! unfortunately i lost to QD's penis in the last FML... but, i've been doing cock pushups in anticipation of our next encounter...

    Nobody voted for IV. It did lack a certain charm the previous generation of games had i'll admit.

    i would of voted for it if i was given two votes... it is my second favorite GTA... i think i might of spent more time playing GTAIV than i did with any other GTA... but that's because of the online addition...

    This just simply isn't true, of course they want to steal away as many GTA fans as they can, it's how they make money. And aside from any fuzzy notions of games developers having this kind of altruistic intention towards gamers, they still work for a publisher and publishers want to make money. Just because they can't compete with GTA, doesn't mean that they don't want to. Money is the bottom line in the games industry as it is in every industry.

    while i do see your view and opinion on this subject, i don't fully understand the above one... volition isn't trying to steal GTA fans away from GTA, they are trying to offer the millions of GTA fans another experience to keep the open-world city game genre rolling along with another entry... they need GTA and it's success if they want any success themselves... GTA is the godfather of the genre, and if they are to have any success, they have to respect GTA and try to create something fans of GTA would enjoy playing...

    again, it's not for everyone, like yourself, but it is a fun urban sandbox that millions of GTA fans love and anticipate... if volition can even pull in 10% of GTAIV's fanbase with SR3, they would have a winner on their hands... they can't compete with a franchise that sells over 10 million units for each entry, they only hope to provide something for some of those 10 million fans to enjoy as well... which would mean great success...

    in other news, the official trailer has been released... alas, game informer is blocked at work so, i'll have to wait for a youtube video, or wait until i get home to see it... it doesn't sound like i am missing much, but enjoy anyways...

    So this game will be like Avatar: everything you've already seen mashed together into one drawn out, over-hyped, POS.

    ^This. It's like they go through every GTA "want" list on the internet and add every stupid little feature you can think of but forget about characterisation, realism, etcetera.This is one game that IMO would be better off without the create a character feature. The humour is nowhere near as subtle and thoughtout as GTA, and despite the excess of features, it's nowhere near as fun to play. I finished SR2 within a week of it coming out and never picked it up again.

    customization is the biggest draw to saint's row... why would they remove their most popular feature?? this isn't meant to be taken serious, and all of the off-the-wall stuff is what it strives for... i find it funny that people don't like saint's row because it's a GTA ripoff, or isn't up to GTA standards...

    saint's row isn't trying to compete with GTA, they are just trying to offer the fans of GTA something else to do while they await the next entry in the series... and if they are trolling GTA forums for ideas then, more power to them... R* doesn't do that, they put in what they want to... you play their game while SR tries to deliver the game you want to play...

    i'll always like saints row but, i know it isn't even nearly as good as GTA... but, it's good enough and fun to play... that's all i look for in games... critics and gamers these days are too critical of games and expect nothing short of perfection... what ever happened to sitting back and having some good old fashioned fun??

    there's a pretty big difference with SD to HD... and the digitally remastered films look like they were filmed with the latest technology... i am all for older movies getting this treatment since a lot of the older films are dark and fuzzy compared to today's high definition films... i think a remastered scarface has been long overdue... a lot of classic films have already been remastered...

    i bet you could fit all of steelport into broker... and for those who haven't beaten SR2, you'll be lucky if you can pick your file back up where it was... the game got so ridiculously hard near the end... and the final mission was so fucking hard that i know of at least two people that gave up and cheated to beat it...

    lets just say it involves flying a helicopter, while shooting very small select targets, while dodging incoming rockets, knowing full well that even ONE rocket can kill you and end the 5 minute frenzy that is the missions finale...

    i helped PS-fagboy with that final mission, and he was one that cheated... and even cheating is fucking hard because you still have to enter the health cheat every single time you get hit by a rocket...

    let's just hope SR3's ending isn't that fucking ridicously hard to deal with... i got used to the enemies that scaled up as you got further, but that final mission was 5X harder than any other mission in the game... the difficulty scale was WAAAAAY off... at least give the helicopter the ability to withstand a few rockets...

    i am proud to say i beat it legit... but only after about 20 retries... one of my good friends got stuck on the final mission and never played the game again...

    yup... and it will deliver on it's goal of being an over the top b-movie action film full of gangster flavor, just like avatar delivered on being the same exact movie everyone has already seen... the driving and shooting is completely arcade-like, cars felt weightless in SR2 and got stuck on minor obstacles, and the bullet-detection and aim was hard to get used to, and usually just resulted in sprayin' n' prayin'... but, it's still a fun little sandbox, and i am all about a good time in the kitty litter...
