I checked my stats for the beginning of this log, and here is where I stand:
Game Progess: 57.44%
$385,619
Days passed: 94
Missions Passed: 63
Races Won: 6
Vigilante: 2
Most Wanted: 5
After I checked my stats, I couldn't turn the game off without doing a mission of some sort, so I ran a quick race, the South Algonquin. I was in my yellow Comet. The opposition was not much to speak of---I recall a Cavalcade XLT and several 4-door sedans---no serious sport cars. I left them behind early on and never saw them again. That takes my Races Won to 7.

Well, I started out writing a big intro detailing where I'm at so far in this game, but then I lost it, somehow. Thought it got posted, but it didn't. So, as a result, I'm gonna be brief.
Started replaying this game in March, keeping careful track of my pigeons and stunt jumps, and trying to complete as many of them as possible without completing the story missions. Each time I cleared an island, I would start a new game save and do enough story missions to open up the next island. Now I have 3 game saves, one for each island, with all the pigeons and jumps complete for each saved game. Regarding my storyline mission progress, I've completed Blood Brothers and Meltdown. My game progress is at about 56%.
So now I'm trying to focus on the earlier side missions, like Most Wanted, Brucie's email thefts, car races, vigilante, etc. I've already done all of Little Jacob's drug delivery missions. Just trying to mix it up and keep it interesting. The cool thing is that now I can go back and reload any of those saved games and have most of that island's missions still available.
Since this is my second time through the game, I'm finding a lot more stuff I missed the first time, or just didn't take advantage of. On each island, I've found convenient "gun runs" for stocking up on free weapons. Even with the guides, you still have to identify the easily accessible body armor and weapons---those that you can drive to, grab, and be on the way to the next one in the least amount of time.
In my next entries, I'll go over some of my favorite gun runs, as well as some of the other tips and tricks I've come across. You may have already discovered or heard about many of these, but I'll cover anything I think is particularly interesting.
