jdawg, the best way of beating it is whenever your stuck, just battle for the purpose of killing and you will get money. this is time consuming but effective
By the way, when the game is loading, it'd be cool to have something entertaining for those with slow computers (me included) and a story line would be great. The gameplay is superb though.
