    What i would like to know is, HOW well GTA:CW performed on the Iphone/Ipod touch in contrast to the versions on the ds/psp! I heard sales on the ds were quite poor and would love to see the Iphone beating the ds version in terms of sales :) (yeah i know, the appstore version was cheaper but anyway!)
    I was hesitating to buy GTA for my ds when it was released, but I'm glad i didn't buy it, since i haven't touched my ds in almost a year thanks to my Ipod touch (yeah, I'm especially looking at you appstore!!)

    now PLEASE port Scribblenauts (shouldn't be too hard?!!) and i can get rid of my ds

    You can change PDA skin.
    To access game settings You have to access Your PDA by touching little red icon in the left upper corner of display.

    Yes...
    I asked it a few pages back.

    To get a cab You have to hold Your finger in the upper right corner, just next to Pause button. Remember, that there has to be taxi in the nearby with yellow light glowing.

    You can mark destination place on the GPS map and go there immidiately.

    mmh they say in the usa...maybe the article that i read told about the sales from all the world but i think it's strange...if i can find the article i'll tell you about it..
    oh,and if the sales of gta for ds are really 250.000 we are on the good road i hope :)

    It can't be. What OS do You have?
    I am working on 3.1.3. and all my savegames exist.

    Wasn't updating interruped? Canceled connection, any error?
     
  12. Yeah 3.1.3

    after i installed the update, i updated the game.. my "other" space was taking up 1gb. i end up deleting GTA adn it brings "other" back down to 200mb. reinstall gta and it's back but lost my saves

    it's as if sometime during the install, the save files didn't link themselves to the game and instead were counted as "other". weird

    You shouldn't delete GTA to update it. Why did you do it? You should just click Updates button in iTunes on PC or iPhone.

    actually you only need to hold your finger on the top part of the screen anywhere, if any of you actually paid attention to the tips in game, you'd know this.

    At the beginning I was too excited about graphic and atmoshpere in the game to care about tips. But now I pay attention to them, thanks to I know I can skip dialogue and cut-scenes what is pretty useful when You have limited time.

    You clearly said after this, you deleted, reinstalled and understood that by yourself as an "update".

    But that is not how an update works.

    Please don't post false information in forums, which actually could confuse people not to buy it/upgrade.

    Update just works fine.
     
  17. the 1gb "other" space took up too much space for me to update

    so i deleted the game and it brought it back down to the correct size so i could finally update the game

    Damn!!! Impressive...I don't think I've gotten a 100% in any gta game. Anyway could you help me out by telling me roughly where the gun club is. I've beaten the game, and have been trying to find it since day one. Didn't pay attention the first time they told me where it was.
