It's a better game than people (not reviewers) gave it credit for. The city is really immense, and in terms of a "next gen" GTA, they truly delivered. I hope those that were disappointed by IV aren't put off of the inevitable next game, because now they've developed the engine and can concentrate on other aspects, I reckon it's going to be something really special.

First of the GTA games I really enjoyed, actually. Which may have something to do with it :) Pat was having a Buck’s Fizz moment ;)

The problems with the game are: -The quality of the writing isn't as good -The dropping of popular culture aspects of the series ruined it's charm -There is less to do -[^^That is probabaly becuase]There are less varied mission involving different mechanics. -The voice acting is second-rate Those are the main sticking points. Technically, outside of IQ and Framerate, the games artistic direction is SUPERB. And there is a lot of light sources. It is a technical marvel. That is clearly where all the money went.

Plenty of people really went mental over GTA IV, and I guess they will over this too. Mike went back to it recently and said he really liked it. I might try again. It’s all about the story, innit.
