i've finally beaten this so so game after 19h 47m 32s playing off and on. Cool

i found the graphics to be a bit dated more so at 2560x1600 resolution. the faces animated well but the textures were sub-par and muddy. Confused

perfect xb360 pad support means it's a joy to control. no need for hand gymnastics with kb & mouse. Very Happy

it got tedious after a while. the cases started to blur and i just stopped caring after doing 5 or 6 cases. at least you get to control another character towards the end making it somewhat less boring. plus you get to see full female nudity of the dead variety. Razz

i like the quick travel options by making your partner drive. it sure cuts down on all the needless driving. Rolling Eyes

once you're done with the main campaign, there's 'the streets of l.a. (free roam)' mode to do the collectibles and hopefully get 100% completion. i supposed when i'm bored out of my brains i'll return to do them. but for now, it's on to the next game! Wink

misc stats:

story cases complete: 21/21
game completion: 62.4%
newspapers viewed: 13/13
street crimes completed: 0/40
landmarks discovered: 8/30
vehicle types driven: 10/95
film reels: 0/50
total clues found: 318
enemies shot dead: 147
enemies killed with headshots: 31
distance traveled on foot: 19.84 mi

According to the social club statistics, only 50% made it past the Patrol cases, a mere 13% got through Homicide and only 5% finished the game.

It took me 12 days (57hrs) to get through the game and finish with 91,4% completion. 0 mistakes. Not going after the film reels and the last 13 cars.
I was never bored the whole game was fucking A but I can see why it's not for everyone.

What is double teamed enemies in the statistics? I never got that one.

dlc.dlc5.big.pc - dlc.dlc8.big.pc

You do know that outfits and guns are optional?
One of the guns you only get when wearing the dlc outfit and the other is in the trunk of your car and you don't ever have to equip it.

There is also the "Chicago Lightning" bonus outfit, you only get that when playing with an online account (it works with the pirated version).
If you're playing with an offline account you can make an online account, copy your saves over and get the outfit with the online account, then play to the next checkpoint and copy the updated saves back to your offline profile.

You should try them, they actually each have different cutscenes/story like cases, just shorter and usually finish in a firefight. Still good.

I'm very close to the end of the story, and it was awesome. Some annoyances/minor problems, but nothing too bad. I'll just do the cases/street crimes, fuck the vehicles/landmarks/film collecting. Also fuck getting perfect on cases, it's impossible without following a guide. I usually get 2-3 stars Smile.

Put those in your HOST file and you should be fine. I didn't got any update and I'm not using any firewall.

The fps remover works but there is a bug in the latest skidrow crack, about 2/3 into the game with that "notepad-pencil-riddle".
I used the skidrow 1.0 crack and it worked, after the next savepoint i replaced it again with the updated crack. luckily the savegames are compatible.

That fps unlock solution, if same as the one in the update, does not limit FPS but enforces it. Therefore no reason to play with 60 FPS if your computer can't handle that much 90 percent of gameplay time Mad

It drops to whatever your pc can handle (30-45 for me), and gameplay speed decreases accordingly. It goes half-speed if you have 30 FPS with 60 FPS lock. Feels like the engine just does not allow you to skip a single frame. Set to 600 and you'll have 10x times slower gameplay, or even slower if your PC can't handle 60 Laughing

Yes, the THETA rls gets 1.54 GB in size, so the DLCs are included

This explains the problem I was getting, alt tabbing temporarily fixes it until it slows down again.

This is with 2500k @ 4.3ghz and Ati 6990.

If I can't do it then the only possibility is maybe it works better on Nvidia.

@Bart:
I think that might be a possibility. I'm on the same processor (overclocked at 4.2) + 570 gtx (which is much slower than your 6990) and the speed is fine with no slowdowns and 60fps all the time.

Code:
decrypted DLC content for faster loading
they just unpacked those dlc files for more fps
