Anyone else gone head first through the windshield yet?
Yup! LOL

Love this game. Spent some time online last night with a friend doing a "free roam" match to just cause some trouble and had a lot of fun. We learned that I drive the cars and he drives the boats and heli's. I agree with the statement about the chase cam, took a little over an hour to get used to.

P.S. yes, i have gone FLYING out of a windshield, and then hit an oncoming car mid-flight. Managed to walk away :-D

fyi i heard a report that some of the games freeze up upon the first loading of the disc - there are like 4 images at the beginning, then the cutscenes should start. All the images slightly move (zoom in / out) - if your images are just sitting there, restart your machine. I heard this is a problem on both xbox and ps3.

ive got about 5 or 6 hours of gameplay in.
ull get a gun when ***maybe small spoiler alert*** u do the first mission for little jacob
he gives u a glock, which now i have about 600 bullets for. haha.
i also got a shotty somewhere along the way (just make sure u pick up anything with a red glow underneath it, those are usually weapons) and when Roman calls and wants u to go to the strip club, do it. go into the room that say employees only, it has security tvs and stuff, there will be a BAD shotgun in there its like almost automatic. i believe the room is to the left as soon as u walk in the club. anyway, this is awesome, i also just got teh gun shops unlocked (im not gonna tel u when that happens because it is a spoiler) but its not too long into the game. but at that point u get a micro-smg, which is pretty awesome.

ps. my hint that ive learned is, if ur getting chased by the cops, and u cant get away... die before u get arrested, theyll take all ur guns and stuff if u get arrested, but if u die, u get to keep them.

I read the PS3 version runs at 620p and crashes when you try to play online. No problems yet on the 360. First date with Michelle went well, we went bowling and I got to put some dents on her car, she's so dreamy.

When you buy your 360.. go ahead and get a Fed Ex shipping slip so you can send it back to MS when it crashes.. lol..

Been playing it on PS3 no problems at all.. never had any with my PS3... and the 10 min load is similar to you installing a PC game. Once you are in the game there is no loading time between scenes/rooms/bldgs.. ect..

Get a PS3 and enjoy.. Get a 360 and you will know thier support 800# by heart..
