Michael has to get inside Lifeinvader, the game’s take on a social network, and plant a device. GamesRadar describes it as a fairly normal infiltration job wrapped in pure satire, starting with a trip to buy deliberately mismatched casual clothes.
Walkthrough
- After the cutscene, drive to the clothes store marked on the map.
- Dress Michael in a gilet and cargo shorts to match the look the job needs.
- Drive to the Lifeinvader offices and walk to the marker by the front doors to meet Ricky, one of the programmers.
- Follow Ricky upstairs to his desk and sit down at the computer.
- Close every pop up ad on the screen by moving the cursor to each close button.
- Walk to the prototype room to trigger a cutscene, then leave the building.
- Drive back to Michael’s house and watch the keynote on TV.
- When Jay Norris holds up the phone, open your contacts and call Jay Norris to finish.
Gold medal tips
- For the pop ups, IGN suggests tapping the select button repeatedly while you sweep the cursor from box to box. It is faster than clicking each one carefully.
- Pick the clothes quickly. You only need the two items the mission asks for.
- Drive straight between markers and skip cutscenes to stay under 8:30.
