Liberty City Minute
You finished the story in less than 30 hours

Did you get the achievement and want to brag about your time?

Did you just miss out and need a hug?

Are you half way through and want to know if you are on target?

Ask anything you want relating to this achievement

[Mingledon]

Is the watch really that beautiful and golden?

Seriously though, I missed out- gimmie a hug. Then again, I knew I'd miss out because I chose to savor the game. Spent like an hour alone just bowling.

[RvB Xx Donut xX]

Woop Woop I completed it in 21:37:41

[markvvoc]

i was surprised i got it tbh, i also didnt think the game was that hard to complete, ive only have a xbox a few weeks, and really enjoyed GTA IV, but was surprised when i had completed it in just over 26 hours...also had time to do some other achievements aswell, but i did escape out of the cutscenes as i am to impatient to watch them lol...

[Chojin]

21-22 hours for me, and that was with some mucking about earlier on playing mini games.

when you put your mind to it and skip journeys you can rinse through it quick.

i even made the stupid decision at the end resulting in an extra four missions.

edit: at first i thought i'd get it on my second playthrough but then i thought about it and decided i may as well get as many points as possible instead and the chances of me playing through it again are very low

theres just too many new games coming out all the time to waste 20 hours or so replaying a game.

[Kenodona]

hehe, I have finished 45% of the game and have already played over 35 hours. Don't wanna rush the game the first time I play it, so it looks like there will be a second play only to do this achievement.

[Deyankees1]

yea I'm currently at 27 hours and 30 mins and I'm doing the special someone mission. Not gonna rush my last 2 1/2 hours just to get the achievement. I could and get it easily and I most probably will but if anything I might just need a hug when I'm done.

[Nightdragon]

Got the achievement on my first playthrough :P

I wasn't particularly bothered about it at first, but then completely blitzed the last 20 missions giving me a time of 29 hours 30 minutes. It was a close call, but at least i dont have to rush through it agiain skipping cut scenes etc, didnt skip a single one and still got the time ^_^

Go me!!

[Def2fyn]

ok im in the 50th misson and 9 hours left can i make it?

[Pegleg Pride]

You probably can, but you're going to have to miss out on cutscenes and reload when failing missions. So I wouldn't bother, only because it would take too much away from the gaming experience. Don't you dare not enjoy GTA 4 to the fullest!

[Lostheroes5686]

29:37:00 I even got about 17 other achievements as well. I skipped the cutscenes because I too am impatient. I just wanted to play and what an amazing finish. I like the whole Mass Effect choice your own ending

[C4ever]

it's not that people have problems with it - it's that they chose to do other things rather than rush from the off.

[Kvalen]

Belive my time was 22 hrs 41 min. And I got 29 other achievements on my way!

[Chuck Neus]

I missed it by 2hours i wasnt a happy bunny but at the same time i had a blast messing around with bits and bobs. I shall be replaying it at least another 2 times, 1 to get the achievement and another to fully lap up the storyline

[C4ever]

wat i did is on my first time i played how ever i wanted casual like and enjoing it u guys should do that to instead of ruining it for urselves first time through

[C4ever]

and on my 3rd and last time i will be getting 100%

why would you want to 100% it on your third try and not play one of the previous two game saves?

I've got about 54 missions done and I'm like 12 hours into it. I've been messing around and taking Brucie drinking a lot lately as well. Gonna work on my last two friends while doing story missions.

Chojin, who's the babe in your avatar??

cuz on my second try im speed runing for achievement and first try i was just enjoing it

[Ceb]

I didnt even look at the achievements when I first got the game. I just messed around for a while as I'm sure many people did then saw this achievement and went for it. Clocked in at 29:55:18. Crazy close.

just because you speed-run it doesn't mean you can't get continue with that game and 100% it...

rather than start all over...

that'd give you a 'fun' playthrough and one for speed? no?

So I've got a pretty good shot at getting Liberty City Minute, yeah??

54 missions done 12:24 playtime.

After googling her, that chick is smokin hot by the way.

[StC EliteKiller]

w00t got mine in 29:37:19 and didnt skip cutscens and got other achievements, check my profile if you wanna know. w00t

[HitmanIV]

I got it on 27 hours and 30 minuetes or so. I was also maucking around doing a fair bit of side missions etc so I think that it is possible to get it waaay less than that. Overall I thought this was a pretty easy achievement to get.

[C4ever]

i think once u miss some random dudes u cant do their missions so u dont get 100% and wen im speedrunin im not bothering with them

[C4ever]

im gonna do everything for the 100 except the pigeons until the guide is complete cuz i dont wanna miss one and then not be able too find one like assassins creed

[Christopher7xii]

Does anyone have a list of missions that compose up the main story? I don't want to get sidetracked doing side missions if I can avoid it. How many missions are storyline? What are the mission names?

Currently I'm 14 missions in at 2h play time. I'd like to think I'm on track, but who knows.

[mksystem74]

I'm at 64 missions completed and just hit the 19 hour mark. should i be worried?

[SuicideFury]

woot woot i got it with a time around 21 hours i was foolin around also for a bit but notthat long
