:That looks great to me. My only concern is the delineation between types of collectibles. It still seems arbitrary the way it is arranged. I agree that [[Unique Stunt Jumps]] should be separated between [[GTA San Andreas]] and [[GTA IV]]. However, I'm a little worried about including [[snapshot]]s and [[tags]] under the [[Hidden Packages]] subheading. Because hidden packages are '''always''' [[pickups]] in [[GTA III Era]] games, [[horseshoes]] and [[oysters]] make sense under that heading, but tags and snapshots do not, as they, like the unique jumps, require the player to use either an item (e.g. the [[camera]] or [[Spray Paint]]) or a vehicle in order to collect them. Contrarily, hidden packages only require picking up, which I think distinguishes them from any other type of collectible. I think we need to endeavor to make the distinction between GTA:SA and other GTA III Era games more clear, i.e. aiming at delineating by game '''first''', by lumping all pre-GTA:SA games together (since they don't vary much in terms of collectibles), and creating distinct headings (with their own subheadings) for GTA:SA and GTA IV. Of course, as Gboyers mentioned, this can get a little messy with multiple subheadings. Thoughts? '''[[User:Eganio|Eganio]]<sup>''[[User talk:Eganio|Talk]]''</sup>''' 21:19, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
