Well then...let me begin (*THIS IS NO LIE*)

Darkel my freinds has long been forgotton. Or has he. Darkel, a tramp.....or a secret assasin. No one except the producers can explain. BUT apparently before sept the 11th Darkel played a big part in the game. News has slipped from the developers that Darkel set u all the rampage style missions (Instead of those skull icons) He hid in different places and if u found him then he gave u a mission and moved on. Originally he was to be found in the Harbout tunnel (Place with 4 tramps).
The missions he set u included hijacking a jumbo jet and crashing it in to the stadium (That is why the stadium seems so useless now). Also in the last mission he apparently revealed to u that he was after donald love and wants him assasinated. U have to do that. Then once u done it u have to meet Darkel at the observitry (Accessed by that tunnel thats the main focus of this thread) and there he commits suicide or something. After that that was supposidly game over 100%
All this was slipped from rockstar on the official forums. Apparently they wanted to know peoples views on it and whether they should add him in the x-box version and PC version (They feel they can now the events of sept 11 are behind us).
No one....however knows if Darkel is in the PS2 version. The person who did his voice is displayed in the manual in the credits (Voice actors) but are not sure whether he is in it.
Certainly this Darkel would explain the following

-Why the kill frenzies aren't better. (Darkels versions of these would have been better bt obviously they had to take e'm out.)
-What the point of the stadium was
-What happens to Donald Love.
-What point the blocked tunnel is.
-Where those last couple of missions are!!

If u want proof of Darkel first look in the manuals credit section under voice actors but also look on the official web site. www.grandtheftauto3.com

CLICK ON THE MAP OF PORTLAND THEN ON THE HARBOUR TUNNEL SECTION. THE GEEZER ON THE RIGHT IS DARKEL!!!!


Also it is said that the limbs cheat was gonna be in the game as something that happened all the time. But they also took that out coz it would help get the game banned. Maybe there is a cheat to get Darkel. Maybe.

I'm surprised game magazines ain't picked up on it cause they get early versions, the only thing they have noticed is the limbs not falling of.
here is the code to make limbs fall of: sq,L1,cir,down,L1,R1,tri,right,L1,X.

whne u put it in, u get no message.

sometimes when u meet a guy named Darkel ( see artwork ) you have the choice to accept his, challenge . This replaces the Kill Frenzy's !!
In one mission that you get from Darkel you have to hijack a ice cream truck , drive it to public , wait until you attract allot of peds and then blow the whole thing up leaving blood splatters on the ground and arms and legs throwed out in the air !!

the guy there must have had one of the review versions of the game, when Darkel was in it.
