I haven't used my blimp code yet, is there anything I'm missing out on? I passed it on a FIB mission when Trevor was flying a helicopter

I haven't used my blimp code yet, is there anything I'm missing out on? I passed it on a FIB mission when Trevor was flying a helicopter The code allows you to call the company, and they send a Blimp to the nearest available location (It'll spawn at an airfield or a stadium). I've only used the Blimp once, and it really is fun because it's fuckin' huge but it's not necessary. I had a police chopper crash into it and blow us both up though.

Ben, you mentioned the lack of modern rock/metal. Though that is my favourite music, that isn't what I wanted. When I listen to a GTA5 rock radio I want big anthems and 80's glory. It's LA, they need the big party feel in the soundtrack, and other than Queen and Def Leppard I think they missed the mark musically.
The ads and news updates are cool though.

Yeah, that's why I feel like you aren't enjoying it as much as I am. The focus is on what's played in the USA radio currently, which is Rap, Pop, Electronic, Indie, and select classic rock. If you put on any radio station in a car, you won't hear anything in regards to rock. Most people seem to dislike current radio because of that..and choose Satellite Radio or Pandora Radio instead. So it's accurate, but they don't have much in terms of great ROCK. There's some good classic Rock n' Roll but there's no "Welcome to the Jungle," if that makes sense to say. But I'm okay with that, because I like the rest of the music.

The blimp is great for just drifting over the city without much input and having a look at everything. I love the music that plays while you're in it too (same as pause menu.)
Had an awesome crash today. Hit a bench, rolled the car over in the air and flew over a pedestrian's head which missed him by mere inches. He had an extremely lucky escape.
Speaking of escapes, I was doing taxi fares with Franklin when one woman made off without paying. I ran after her and got the money by stopping her. Got back in the taxi then ran her over. She won't be ripping off my taxi pals anymore.

I'll transport the product for you using Clucking Bell trucks, like Pollos Hermanos.

Apparently you can gift your money on GTA online to others in your crew, which gave me an idea. MS GTA wager matches. We do micro matches on here in which you put up a certain amount of money, say 50k each. The winnner gets the whole pot when the loser gifts his 50k to him on the game. Play for as little or as much as you like.

This isn't 80's LA though, it wouldn't be as relevant, and they had most of that covered in Vice City. Doing it again would just feel like a re-tread. Like I said, while I don't love every song, most of them are good to drive to, in one setting or another. I'd take the GTA V soundtrack over something like the WWE games any day, which to me, are the gold standard of shit soundtracks

My disc got "laserburn" so I've gotta go get it buffed and if not, go exchange it.

not sure what else to call it, even if it is incorrect. It has a ring burnt into the disc from demons or something and won't read now.

Switched over to play as Trevor and he was in the middle of nowhere, drunk, in a dress. Fantastic.
