Is it true that OG's actually based on Ja Rule? I've read it on a few forums.

He's the funniest character in the whole game. Most people expected it to be Charlie Murphys character, but OG is just the best.

I don't honestly think so, I mean, it's a parody of the 90s to be quite honest. All these guys who were acting hardcore and gangsta in the rap industry in the 90s really weren't, and DJ Pooh/Dan Houser decided to shed some light on that with OG Loc. Besides, even if it was based on Ja Rule, you think they would ever admit it?

Hmm... now the favorite part of any of these official threads:
What's your favorite mission? And please highlight in spoiler tag...

No, it's not the final mission, although that one was done VERY WELL. It's the in-air hijacking mission some 20,000 feet in the air. You take a plane and get behind a Shamal, then the scripting takes place and CJ freefalls onto the plane. As for gameplay, I like the pseudo-Time Crisis mode when taking down the bad guys...
I loved the
Very well done.
I wish you when you
Terminator 2 homage mission. Taking the bike down the viaducts and just shooting shooting shooting brought back memories of a great (1992!!) film.
I wish you when you
go back to Liberty City for that one mission, you could actually hit the old stomping grounds. A missed opportunity, in my view...
just beat it. 44:44 playing time( :lol), 70.34%
Last mission was awesome, except I wish it coulda been a bit harder. Beat it on my first try. But then again, I supposed if they made a 5-10 minute mission really hard I'd be in here bitching about how the last mission sucks because it takes forever to bear and I keep dying :lol
Awesome, awesome game. One of my favorites of all time.
Now some minor gripes about the end:

Anyone else like Vice City's ending better? Not the story, but how when you beat Vice you got your own mansion with every weapon out front and helipad/dock in the back? That was so freaking tight. In this game they don't give you shit. I don't even have any idea where to find some of the weapons(rocket launcher, flamethrower, etc.). But, minor complaints.
As for my favorite missions:

The one where you infiltrate the dam
the very first stealth mission where you steal Madd Dogg's rhyme book for Loc

Eminem, you gotta find those things like horseshoes, oysters, tags, and snapshots... They'll give you the weapons. Also, if you blow it midway into completing the last mission, you can continue from the halfway point... So you don't have to start all over again if you blow it...
Aside from missions, how have you been raking in the cash?
Of course, there's
I also made a little cash
What have you been doing to get them bills?
Of course, there's
Zero's place, once you get through with his missions.
I also made a little cash
winning the demolition derby in San Fierro and the crazy 8 track in Los Santos.

Shooting drug dealers, lots of them...
Luck. And lots of dodging and quick braking with the R2 button. Once you are on a roll and up to a decent speed you can catch the first one easily. It's a matter of getting several back to back and it's over in no time. It always annoys me that the markers seem to spawn right behind you all the time. But, when you manage to pull it off, instant $10000.
The next time limit is 2 mins. I found thisd one to be next to impossible so far, but hey....practice makes perfect.

Take out the competition, and it's easier to snag those markers(your bullets seem to do more damage than usual). Also, if a marker is on the far side of the dome, drive in the opposite direction. Another car will snag it, and a new one usually opens up in your path.
Beat it last night. Good God the last half of that mission had me ready to jump out of the nearest window. Cool ending, though - and now I can concentrate on my oysters n whatnot.
Did anyone else bother to keep multiple saves at key points? I kept one just before the start of San Fierro, the second during
, and now one after completion.

ye gods, gang wars are easier when you've got max health and an M4 on you. I remember hating these at the beginning because I was struggling so much to live, now it's so much easier
And while I was participating in a war, I wasted two Ballas in a car. When I got in the car later one of the headless heathens was still in it, and theirs bodies move back and forth when you hit the brakes. Nice attention to detail, R* :lol

My only other save is when
there's the riots. That way I can always go back and see the coolness of it.
and for the life of me, katie is simply never there. ever. i've searched where she's supposed to be on the golf course and even the rest of it like 10 times. never there. pissing me off.

Haven't really played this mode, but, I wonder if you can throw a satchel charge on him, let him run into a crowd, and then detonate. So so wrong....

just finished the zero missions; absolutely worthless in my opinion, just a chance to showcase david cross who wasnt even that entertaining. controlling those rc vehicles was needlessly difficult. jizzy's first mission is bullshit as well, why does it have to be so freakin long, i hate doing 20 things for missions.
im starting to get really bored of this game as well. does it get more interesting, ceasar is dull.

No it doesn't. Sell your game.
Property of Microsoft said:
Ceasar's courier and Zero's RC San Fierro missions are voluntary(and I agree, pretty much worthless, the payout for both just doesn't seem worth the time and money investment).
But every other mission in the city rocks. Wu Zi's and CJ's garage missions being the highlights. I can't remember anything from Jizzy giving me too much trouble. His T-Bone Mendez mission was easy as pie, and meeting Mike Toreno in Jizzy's last mission is worth the brief wild goose chase.
Don't sell your game because you can't beat Zero's missions (which you aren't supposed to do straight off anyway-wait until after flight school.) Cheat if it bothers you that much
And Jizzy's missions are piss easy compared to some of the stuff you'll be doing later on. Try getting some in-game skills up first before writing the game off

at the flight school, circling the airstrip. Take off and landing were no problem, but getting my plane to ascend to the first corona without choking out seems impossible.

If you look at the posters in the gym, they talk about it. Usually takes place Saturdays on the Santa Maria Beach, not far from the safe house you can purchase down there...
walk around the territory, but go by yourself. Due to the limitations of either the PS2 or Renderware itself, if you carry more than 3 gang members, the others won't spawn. Just walk around the block, and eventually, they'll show up. Or, just take them out of their cars, smoke 'em, and wait until more guys randomly show up. That'll get the war started...

I'm on the second Zero mission... I get all of the targets, but I never have enough gas to make it back. How the fuck do you finish this mission!? Seems like I'm taking the best route possible. This is making me hate David Cross.
Edit: Finally passed it on about the 20th try. The frustrating part was that it didn't seem to matter how fast you were, but if you got a lucky spawn on the last van. The fucking thing spawned in indoor parking for me one time #$%^. Fuck, glad that mission is done with.
