(I have to retype this because the site crapped out on me when I clicked "Add Diary Entry". >;[ )

I continued with Marty Chonks to do his last mission: Her Lover. It turns out his wife had been cheating on him with someone he owed money to. I picked him up as usual and brought him back to the factory, but Marty was outside waiting. He tried to invite the guy in, but the lover pulled out a shotgun and said "I'm taking over the business, Marty" and shot him. The mission officially ended there, so I killed the guy to take his shotgun. Free ammo!

After that, I decided to do Joey's last mission as well: The Getaway. This mission was ridiculously easy compared to his previous one. I had to be the driver for a bank robbery. After the robbery, I had three stars, but immediately dropped one by picking up a police bribe in an alley. I then drove to a Pay 'n Spray to get rid of the remaining two. Then I just easily drove back to their hideout to finish the mission.

I decided to goof off for the remainder of the 30 minutes because that's really what I did most when I last played this game. To me, Grand Theft Auto 3 is a sandbox with endless goof-around opportunities, with some missions to do on the side if you felt like it. I completed a few Unique Jumps and grabbed a couple of Hidden Packages, but for the most part, I was driving around like an idiot. For example, I stole a Rumpo, which is a van, and immediately tipped it on its side after hitting a grassy bump. The vehicle got caught on its side (it's supposed to stand back up) between the road and the bump and was making a lot of collision noises. Eventually, the car lit on fire and I had to get out of it. Although I lost my ride, my friends and I got a good laugh from it.

Oops! I'm sorry to hear that you had a problem with the site.. I've fixed a lot of issues that appeared..so things should be working better now. Let me know if you run into any more problems, ok?

By the way, I also enjoyed sometimes stealing the not-so-good vehicles just to see what sorts of crazy stuff you could pull off with them!
