Okay, I'm currently 32% done with Grand Theft Auto 4. Story-wise, I'm about to start the Playboy X missions over at the second island. Actually, I accomplished my goal for the weekend of at least getting to the second island and hopefully getting a safe house around that area soon. Other than that, it is still an amazing story of betrayal, loyalty, and randomness. As with most people, Brucie is such a standout character and really weird that Niko just wants to make fun of him every time. Little Jacob is pretty cool too and helpful when getting guns and armor from him. I actually did a lot of side jobs as well for achievement points with Jacob's package escorting and Brucie's exotic car pickups. I also started some of the races too since the first mission with Playboy X is pretty long. I knew Dimitri will eventually screw you and it happened so quick for me and was surprised Michelle being undercover for the government. I think the series has always put together a diverse cast of people raging from pure mafia-type leader, to a steroid-driven dude, to a fat chick that sniffs up coke.Performance so far has been good, but pop-in being in their usual spots, especially that bridge to Bohan where it can be pretty bad at times. Good thing I'm at the point where things pick up requiring more firepower and armor being a necessity for the upcoming missions. Then again, the funny and obscure missions like the online dating one is crazy stuff. In addition, I been managing my relationships well with Roman, Little Jacob, and Brucie (Michelle doesn't count now). I tried out Qubed and didn't know what goes on with that mini-game and Darts is hella easy to get bulls eye nearly every turn. I haven't tried Pool yet and I should soon.
Well that's it for now, more GTA IV in a later time.
