Yeah, kill playboy. You get his home. If you kill Dwayne, its just money.
The bigger question is... Did you kill Francis? You get a one time only drop your wanted level if you dont kill Francis, but if you do, you get more respect from the paddies, which is better.

how do you get claude's outfit? dont want to miss it..
Eventually you will be offered the choice of killing Dwayne or Playboy X. If you kill Playboy, you get his mansion to use as a safehouse, and in the closet it the outfit worn by the protagonist of GTA 3.
My eyes hurt from playing this game so damn much. And I'm only around 30% complete. I try to hard to keep everyone's like and respect level up. And I try to do a bit of everything, such as take people out, date bitches, police car missions, races, stealin cars for Brucie, and then try to do the main missions in between. It's a busy GTA IV lifestyle...
how the shit do you beat the bank robbery mission with packie? i get to the subway part every time and derrick dies. i'm using grenades on the cop cars before the subway part to protect my buddies but every time they die in the subway. how much longer does this mission go on for after the subway? is it almost over?? :'(
once you go down the subway tunnel its pretty much over, you come out a hatch and then drive them back.
Stock up on grenades before the mission, go get an rpg and a carbine rifle. You can always just wait to do the mission until you get Dwayne's special ability so you can call in backup.
I finally rented it tonight and I like it so far. The game seems ridiculously deep and the graphics, as expected, are top-notch. Now if only the driving physics didn't suck so much ass...
Nightshade, you'll get use to the driving. You just have to learn not to floor it all the time. There are times you'll need to, but doing it all the time will just make you slide around. You'll get the hang of it. It's a great game. And ya, its ridiculously deep.
I agree about bikes.
That mission where you have to chase a couple of bikers in to the subway was irritating as fuck due to the way that bloody bike handled.
They're also just too dangerous to even consider taking around town as your main form of transport.
The only bike I've found so far that's even remotely nice to ride is the 900.
I can do fine just driving around town. It's when I hit a straight stretch and get cocky that something inevitably goes wrong and I end up on my ass 2 blocks away from a broken bike.
The biker mission was a bitch solely because of the crossbeam at the end of the train tracks. I got clipped on that thing twice before managing to slow down enough to avoid it. I knew his route the second time and managed to pass him a few times.
Bike missions... Blah, hate them... I usually get off the bike ASAP and get a car... I hate the way if you crash, thats it, you may as well restart the mission, theres no catching up to them.
There was also this one mission, on them iddle island, with the police most wanted, where I had to chase 3 biker guys. THREE. Took me ages, because the little fuckers are fast. In the end I had to get the most perfect position, managed to fluke it by crashing head on into two, then I chased the third around like a mad man for 5mins shooting him...

If I'm remembering the same mission you're referring to, I shot them all right off the bat before they even got started. Not every mission works that way though. Most times there's a period of time where the chased car is invulnerable for scripted flight paths.
