The other day I decided to load up GTA:SA again, having completed the main (and several side-) missions many months ago. I think it was watching the video for the upcoming GTA IV that did it (tho’ surely this is number 8?), even tho’ we won’t see it on the PC for a long long time. I’ve mentioned before about the re-playability of some games, but a game as well-designed and implemented as the GTA series keeps giving me new things to do. I think I’ll be annoyed when I get the completion up to 100% as there will be little left to discover, but for now there are still many things in the game that are new to me, and many side-missions I’ve yet to complete.
In the last few days I have, for the first time in the game, become a multi-millionaire (I’ve won about 12mil in the Casinos), I’ve competed in Iron Man-style races (called “Beat the Cock”, which I find childishly amusing), driven freight-trains (for very poor money), and somehow performed an impossible jump…
I’m still not sure how I managed it, but during a Quarry mission I got the following message on completion:
Double Insane Stunt Bonus : $1839
Distance: 6230ft Height: 93ft Flips: 0 Rotation: 1324°
That’s nearly 1.2miles… in a Dumper. I guess it’s a glitch, but it’s still a jump to be proud of *cough*.
