    That's because I'm too lazy to view the posts above me.

    Somebody else experiences stuttering repeating sounds after a while of playing this on a 3G? It doesn´t happen all the time, only occasionally. And yes, i´ve restarted the device.

    Some suggestions for the update:

    - Let users place the controls themselves, like in Wolfenstein 3D. I´d like to have the break button next to the gas, not above it for example. It takes some time to get used to.

    - The Infoscreen which tells you to click on it to be a Taxi Driver, to buy/sell goods from/to the Dealer or similar things can get annoying, as it´s in my field of view (especially while driving). Maybe you could replace it with a small icon, after having the message displayed for the first time?

    - Give us the option to change the language manually. While the German Translation isn´t bad, i´d still like to try out the US Version.

    Ehh, at first, you miss a few times, but you get used to it. I rarely miss a button anymore, and the feedback from the game is good enough that if you aren't on the button, you realize right away.

    I'm starting to really miss the voice acting.

    btw my fingers are big but i dont think theres a problem with the controls. The default button controls for vehicles are virtually side by side so its very hard to miss and u dont even need to look

    No, I'm talking about the pedestrian/cop voices while roaming around. They said stuff a lot.

    Around 100k, its all about buying coke and heroin and waiting for tip offs. Huge mark ups when people want those two drugs. Also things like weed go from $10 a bag to $150+ when someone wants it.

    Tip offs are your friend, do them all and money will never be a problem.

    i have 370,000. Most of the work i do is sell to the few 'permanent buyers' in the maps. They would stay at one spot and demand one drug type for a long duration of time before changing to another drug type.

    So i would just lookup the trade info in the phone for the drug type and fill 50 packs. Rinse and repeat.

    I do some of the 'buying' email offers but not all. And I never stock up drugs in my safehouse.

    Saving up so i can buy all houses at once.

    So I've noticed something..Usually if you're in a car and a cop is trying to bust you, you can drive and he'll fall down. However, this doesn't work if you're reversing, only if you go forward.

    If you reverse fast enough he'll fall down also.

    I just shoot the cops trying to get in my car.

    A few things about this game really should be improved...

    1\ Randomize Gta playlist
    2\ Would be great if you could actually flip cars onto the roof so you HAVE to get out and find another
    3\ Annoying that it's not clear which dealer to approach to buy a certain narcotic. For example I needed 20 bags of weed to activate a mission and wasted ages going to all the dealers just to get some as I didn't know who was selling what.
