Heading back to... Max Payne 3 for New York Minute action!

Image
I haven't touch Max Payne 3 for more than 2 months right now and since Grand Theft Auto V come out and for Far Cry 3 Co-op action, those thing make me completely stop playing Max Payne 3.  Well, I already completed Grand Theft Auto V (I mean 100% of Single Player), so I am having some free time, I decided head back to Max Payne 3 to see what happen, what I see right now in Max Payne 3: - Nearly no gamer in Multiplayer - Arcade Mode leaderboard nearly no change (Uh, base on the position) Haven't touch the game for more than 2 months, it already affected something for myself: - Can't clearly remember Enemy spawn point and the number - Forget to refill ammo from ammo box - have to slow down aim speed from 7 to 6 - Control setting for specific action like get in cover... But I quickly learn the control and setting back in few hours time. So is time for some real action, my first action is get back to New York Minute for some quick action, and choose Chapter 7 with...

Grand Theft Auto 5 - Single Player Racing Series #03 (Triathlon)

Image
Although in last Racing Series I say it will talk about Off-road and Sea Race , but Triathlon also related about Racing and I have written more information so I decide to make it first. Triathlon is a new activity in Grand Theft Auto V. It is a multi-sport Race - Swimming, Cycling and Running similar in Reality, but compare to reality is a lot shorter. There are total of 3 Triathlon in Single Player, 2 of them are short, the final one is very long . Triathlon 1: Vespucci Canals Triathlon (From: Rockstar Social Club) This Triathlon set in near Airport, just outside the Los Santos Custom, and should take about 3 - 4 real minutes to finish . For the first Triathlon the hardest should be "Cycling" Part. In cycling, there are some sharp turn , so if you are in high speed you may crash any roadblock like pole or something and you may fall down from your bicycle, that can make you lose some time and fall behind. Also, the catch up feature is active and your oppo...

Tips: Before you play Rampage, I strongly recommend you have full body armor (can be purchased or grab in some hiding point.) although you will enter "Special ability" all time but you are not in "God Mode", you still have a chance to die if you get hit a lot. Quick save if you needed jus...

Grand Theft Auto 5 - Single Player Racing Series #02

Image
Last Blog about Street Race already half month ago, since I have finished a set of racing in Grand Theft Auto 5 Single Player, I decide to continue it today. And I will keep talking about Street Race in this blog but this is the last blog about it, next racing blog will talk about those Off-road and Sea Race . Sometimes later will talk about the online Racing Part. I already done all Single Player Street Race and take top 100 spot in each track. Track 1: South Los Santos / 2 Laps (From: Rockstar Social Club) Last blog I have talk about it, but just very little. For me, the hardest point in this track is after the first long straight road (Grove St.), since two corner are very close, even if you use "Special ability" you still have a chance to crash if you turn into it in full speed. Other than that, only those vehicle in the road can give you some hard time. Track 2: City Circuit / 1 Lap (From: Rockstar Social Club) This should be the longest track in Str...

Grand Theft Auto 5 - Street Race Series #01

Image
This blog will only talk about the Street Race in Grand Theft Auto 5 with the Race Track and some tips. 1. To unlock Street Race You won't unlock the Street Race until you have done some missions and Strangers & Freaks, for this one you have to at least completed "Pulling Favors". And you have to play as Franklin to unlock it and this "?" only appear during Night time (20:00 - 5:00 / 22:00 - 5:00) For me, since at the beginning you don't have much money to buy & mod the your vehicle so I haven't do that at that time plus I don't know the exactly location, I am quite confused. The best time to do Street Race should be after your first Heist mission "The Jewel Stone Job" since you will get a lot money after that mission. If you have done that, you should see a Green "?" near Franklin 1st House at Strawberry / Power St (Screenshot) You probably will see a guy who call "Hao" stay near his sport car, then ...

Image
If you want to purchase the old dock (Sonar Collections Dock), you have to finish "The Merryweather Heist" to unlock this Property to purchase. Sonar Collections Dock locate at North-west side of Blaine Country, the icon is very close to the Pacific Ocean and Highway. Part 1: Purchase the old Dock To purchase Old Dock, You need to have at least $250,000 in any Character (No specific Character needed), and then get to the old dock and purchase it. Part 2: Ready to go deep in Pacific Ocean... When you get into the Submersible, you will automatically open your phone and the app to scan the "nuclear Waste" which shown as a red icon on your radar. If you are close to the Waste, the Waste will be flashing to make you easier to collect them, each Waste worth $23,000 and all 30 for $690,000. Well, if you want to collect all Waste in 1 time, you have to use about 2 hours to get them all, but I can tell you, 30 Wastes simply around the Los Santos and Blaine Countr...

Grand Theft Auto 5 - "All's Fare in Love and War" Achievement / Trophy Guide

Image
This blog tell you when you can buy property and how to get this achievement step by step. You will be able to buy Property after Trevor's Mission "Nervous Ron" but you have to do few more mission (After "Friends Reunited" mission) to get a chance to change your character to Franklin since only Franklin can bought this "Downtown Cab Co." which in the north-east side of Los Santos City. Since in before you have done the robbery mission of jewelry, you should receive your money on or just before "Fame or Shame" mission (I get the money after Fame or Shame mission). Franklin should have more than $200,000 at that time, and you can now go to the Cab Company and bought it! [Of course, you can do this anytime you like, just make sure you have at least $200,000 in Franklin Wallet] Part 1: Bought the Downtown Cab Company Make your way to the Cab Company on the North-east side of Los Santos City, and then get close the stair, you will be as...

Grand Theft Auto 5 - "Los Santos Customs" Achievement / Trophy Guide

Image
You can't do this before "Friend Request" Story Mission since not all the part will unlock at the beginning of the game like Bulletproof tires, rear bumper... Until you get your first message from Los Santos Custom, you can going for this achievement / trophy. I recommend you do this after the Mission "Fame or Shame" (Trevor & Michael) since you will get the money back from the robbery mission for jewelry but of course you can use Trevor since he have a lot of money (you can control him again after "Mr. Philips" mission (Franklin Mission)). So, here is current one vehicle that I find, Mini Cooper (Weeny Issi, Compacts) doesn't have to spend a lot money, only need around $20,000. (Trevor Own Truck also don't need much money to upgrade too) Here is my video solution: For Mini Cooper only: Armor: $400 (20% upgrade) Brakes: $1600 (Street) Bumpers: $800 (Custom Front Splitter+Custom Rear Bumper) Engine: $720 (Le...

Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days - Extreme Run

Image
So, I finished all the achievement for Arcade Mode in the past 3 days and I have to say the Arcade Mode is quite fun. You can be a good guy(teamwork) or bad guy(grab all the money out). Lightning looter is the achievement you have to finish 2 rounds with $4,000,000 every time(maximum for a round you can grab). So you have no doubt need to be a bad guy and kill all your teammates and kill all the police to escape, which give you some difficulty to leave. But the first 2 rounds is quite easy so not very hard to attempt this one on the bridge stage. More Round and the thing will become harder and harder, enemy will harder to kill but at the same time you can be killed in few shots. By far my best is to round 18 in Airport but I haven't grab money and already need to escape to make thing easier lol.. Right now I am aiming this achievement in Extreme(hardcore) difficulty, and it is a lot harder... - You can die easily in few shots but your enemy take a lot more bullet to die,...

Max Payne 3 - New York Minute Hardcore #12(15th May,2013)(with full run video)

Image
To celebrate for 1 year anniversary of Max Payne 3, I decide to run another New York Minute Hardcore which is my 12th attempt. Since last run is about 3 months ago (Feb), and I recently haven't play much of this game and New York Minute Mode, so I need to have some practice before the real attempt. For the 1st warm up round doing quite badly, Chapter 2 get my first last stand after the helicopter chasing by doing a stupid move, and then in Chapter 3 get another Last stand, also a mistake. No doubt I have to quite for this warm up round since is doing quite badly... 2nd round, although it can call a real attempt. Everything went fine, but then in Chapter 8 after grab the grenade launcher and go to next checkpoint, I decided to melee the last enemy in that area, but then...The kill cam never end(glitch), I can move, hear the speech, but the kill cam never end and the clock won't start again, so have to quit again... (build up 40 mins...!) 3rd round started few hours later...
