Hey OEJ!!

Been meaning to give this game a wee thread all of its own for a little while now but this will do for now.

Aint it the shit!! I made a point of finishing it before starting the on-line play and am glad i did. I am completely bloody hooked!! Gotta say (without giving to much away) some parts of the story line are truelly haunting.

Just outta interest....what rank are you at? I made full Colonel tonight. Should I salute you?

Take care chap

Call Of Duty 4 is awesome.

the single player mode is fairly easy but you can lose yourself playing online, when I get my 360 fixed I can't wait to play it again.
I forget what rank I am now but the gameplay is faultless, actually got CoD 3 cheap for my PS3 and it seems so slow and dated now in comparison.

GTA 4 is my current game of the moment, can't stop playing it and it definitely lives up to all the hype.

beeston,when i get back to the safehouse at the start and it says lay on the bed to advance the game then you get the option to save the game at level 1 or 2 or 3 etc etc do i save it at one of those or do i not lay on the bed and go out the room and down the stairs onto the street
mind you i think i went out on the street last time and was walking round like an idiot for days on end

Hey ash

Right then laddo lets see if we can't start ta get you sorted. I am not the best person to do this coz I have not played GTA 4 yet. How ever I have played every single other GTA title and they don't vary an awful lot.

So here we go....

Right first things first. The point of the game is NOT just to kill random people. All though this is fun at first,the novelty soon wears off!! The point of the game is to carry out "Missions" these are aquired from various "Contacts" you make as the game progreses (sp?)

In the bottom left corner of the screen you have a radar. See it? Good. Right on this radar you will notice little coloured dots. See them? Right now we are getting some where. These dots are the Contacts you currently have. So now get ya hands on a flashy jam jar and drive towards a selected dot.

Right so did you make it to the dot? Excellent!! So you should now see some sort of marker (on all the old games it was a pink light coming up from the ground) See the marker? Right now walk into the middle of. Now there will be a short video clip. This is where you will be given your first mission.

The position of the Job you have to carry out,will appear as another dot on your radar. Drive to it do what you have to do. Pass the level and return to either that contact or any others you may have,to get more missions.

Using your game map and radar are really the key to the game. Spend as much time as you can walking/driving around and getting to know the city layout. This will be of great help getting away from the police or any other car chases.

Dont forget when ever you have a bit of money (earned from the missions) pop along to any Gun shops you find and improve your arsenal.

Oh and for christs sake....read your bloody game manual!!

Hope this helps

BB

I have had a 360 since its launch and although the fan went and i got the red ring of death after 18 months they sent me a brand new one and kept me updated on the progress great customer service.

Games wise x box has tons including being able to download all the old games like asteroids and the like.

Online play is great and i dont mind paying for it, COD4 is the dogs bollocks and i have played for hours clocked it and now on elite mode :)

Thing is i am going to get a ps3 end of the summer simply because of the blu ray player and one of my mates has one so we can play online footie lol

I would say 360 for games

ps3 for the blu ray player

If you can have both your pretty much sorted!!

ash, without sounding patrionising you could read the instruction booklet
