Cassettes w/ yellow

[thebigj_a]

What's with the cassettes that have yellow titles? I've tried to find a pattern but can't. There's impoprtant info in white cassettes as often as yellow.

The yellow cassette tapes are basicly the "Vital" (take that with a grain of ) codecs and you need to listen to them to progress the story while the white tapes may have some bonus story content they are not needed to progress.

What? "Need" to?
I've never had the game just stop progressing until I listened to a tape. It progresses as I do missions.

Theres a mission that won't unlock unless you do all story aspects includeing yellow tapes.

I think what he means is that the yellow tapes are basically relevent to major events pertaining to the story whereas the white have information that's nice to know, but you don't really need to know it. It's just a matter of what you percieve as being important.
