GTA IV Scooter |
|
I was wondering what type of scooters they would have in the game and I just jacked my first scooter on GTA IV. The game has it named as a "Faggio." Reminds me of the adjectives hurled my way as I rode my old Riva around Ft Sill in the 80's.

I don't have my 360 anymore as I sold it, but my brother just got home from grad school and had his shipped home from chicago. I remember the faggio just being a generic modern scooter, looks more like a Genuine Blur or something.

Good call, it does look like a Blur. Clever play of words with the Piaggio. I still like to ride it to evade the cops through the park.

Haha yeah, that mission with "Bernie" was pretty ridiculous too, I can't wait for my brothers 360 to get here so I can finish beating that game, I had like two missions done when I sold mine. You playing on ps3 or 360?

If you have GTA Vice City, the Faggio is a P-series looking scooter, and it even sounds like a real 2T engine.
In San Andreas it looks more like an ET4.
I was disappointed to find that the faggio in GTA4 looked pretty generic.
I got an Xbox 360 a few weeks ago and one of the first things I did was get online to race. I was lucky enough to get in a lobby with about 8-9 other cool guys and we had a scooter-exclusive race. It was a lot of fun, but the things are so light, they bounce around like crazy.

Angry J, and anyone else as well, you got COD 4 with that 360? Let me know if you do, I pretty much play that exclusively and I'm always looking for new people to play with.

I don't have it but everyone keeps telling me to get it. Right now I have GTA4, Bioshock, Lego Star Wars, and the first Halo.
I'll pick it up as soon as I can. In the meantime, my gamertag is KC Angry J.

Yo, Angry J, I sent you a request from my GT, moonrakerfemale. No, I'm not a girl, it's just an N64 throwback. Surely the nerds caught that though. Anyone else on here have a gamertag to post? Hopefully you guys wont have a problem playing with a traitor(see Buy/Sell/Trade).

I was wondering what happened. I hope your "personal" reasons aren't too bad of news. I hope you just decided on some other scooter or something.

Ah yeah, definitely nothing bad, I'm just switching over to mopeds while at home. There's a pretty good moped scene around here, much better than scooters. Probably once I transfer and have a job, I'll get back into both as my cousin in San Fran is who got me into scooters in the first place.

I haven't been on the Xbox in a few days, but I'll click the request.
Sorry to see another Bajaj rider leave the flock, but yeah, mopeds do kick ass.

I'll rock some faces on COD4. That's pretty much all i play online, i have been known to play some Halo but not seriously at all.
