[Official] Grand Theft Auto IV


Recommended Posts

Ok so I think I have a glitched save game. Anyone who is around 25-30% completion might be able to help me out with this. It comes during the time frame of "Final Interview" and "The Snow Storm" I think. Unfortunately I only have one save file and so it looks like I might be starting from scratch. :(

Ok so I occasionally turn story mode on and off through the options on the phone so I think this may have somehow helped cause this but it's pure speculation on my part.

I loaded up my save game the other day and was at the point where I have to race for Brucie ("No. 1") and/or meet my Unknown Contact on the pier. I started driving to the pier and got a call from Elizabeta on my cell and she was saying something about speaking Rastafarian and it almost sounded like her and Little Jacob were having some kind of confrontation. It added and E for Elizabeta to the map and so I ignored it and kept moving to the pier.

I got there and started the mission and then failed it because the Blackmailer got away. (I didn't realize that I should have been walking down among the people when I called him instead of standing up high looking for him.) Anyways, I reloaded and drove back to the pier and got no call from Elizabeta this time while I was on the way. Once at the pier I stood on the arrow to start the mission and nothing happened. I reloaded 5 or 6 times with the same results. I was getting annoyed. I switched story mode on and off on my phone etc. etc. and then decided to call someone. I was still standing on the arrow and as soon as I made a call to Roman to hang out BOOM cutscene and mission started.

After completing that mission and the mission for racing with Brucie (I don't remember for sure but I don't think I had to call someone that time, it just worked) I got the mission for "Final Interview" I submitted my resume and got the lawyers added to my phone. I never recieved any calls. Since he said something about getting a suit I went and bought one. (I was already in like a sportcoat/turtleneck thing but when I think suit I think something with a tie so that's what I bought) I haven't recieved any calls from the lawyers or anyone else (not even the annoying ones from friends). My only available missions are the ones where Brucie emails you cars (the one from Elizabeta never came back) and I don't know what to do now. Any ideas?

Still not sure if I'll get it... not a big fan of the others in the series, but maybe I'll give it a shot.

And not to sound rude, but some of you guys keep complaining about the forum rules yet you never deny you're breaking them. Some of you have said it's out legally, but you never say whether you obtained it legally. If you break the rules, you break the rules. :ermm:

C'mon give them some credit, they aren't that bad they will give 8.6 for sure.

How early would y'all suggest to get to gamestop for a midnight release? I'm in a college town too :x

Luckily there's 2 gamestops almost right next to eachother but I've already paid off my game at 1 of them so I'm stuck at that one...but it's the lesser used of the 2 if that helps!

I'm going about 11:45. I can't imagine myself waiting in a line for more than 15 minutes for a game. I did pay mine off earlier today with a trade-in of Vegas 2, and the girl who helped me said I should be able to get it pretty quick as they are having 2 lines - those who have paid and those who haven't.

I think you'd be surprised:

IGN Story

But whatever, my 360 Special Edition turns up at some point tomorrow, but after having GH3 turn up at 4pm, I'm gonna got out and grab it at midnight, then give it to my brother

Not really suprised there. But I'm sure the 360 will be the overwhelming favorite in NA.

Epic-death :laugh:

:rofl: There are very few things that can make me ROFL, and that sure was one of them. I was totally like "that was pretty awesome, but it wasn't really *epic* (and he didn't really die), until that second police car finished the gif.

I've been had mine paid off since last summer, so I better get mine tonight, or I'm going to bitch out my local gamestop. They won't take anyone who hasn't paid it off at the midnight release, so lines go by pretty quick. Believe at the Halo3 release the last guy in line (at 12 more showed up after) took 13 minutes. So I'm going to show up at 12 or 11:45 and just wait as the line moves.

    • BATorrent 3.0.3 is out.
    • The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with adblockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Opera Air'. It still has some bloat, but nowhere near as much as Brave browser, for example. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. I have a system wide Adblocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the the web browser, but over the whole thing. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt adblocker because of that.
