Great Rumbler Wrote:Yeah, they took out stuff like to make the game for "plausible and realistic". But all they really did was make it "bland and not fun". I mean that too, the whole game just feels really by-the-numbers and there's almost no sense of acomplishment anywhere in the game and only a handful of missions are actually fun to play [like the Bank Heist] and your stupid friends call you ALL THE TIME and virtually nothing at all to distinguish it from any other GTA game but its graphics.
The missions were often repetitive most were the following, "Kill this guy", "Chase down and kill this guy before he escapes".
The bank heist in GTA IV, Is incomparable to the Casino Heist in San Andreas, Not to mention there was a good few missions you had to complete before the Casino Heist, that were fun. It was like a oceans 11 moment in GTA SA.
The best moment in SA was burning marijuana with the truth hippie character.
I thought they were going to have prison break mission for Gerry, But guess what Rocketstar never thought of it!!
Tell me? Did you see any Police bikes in GTA IV? probaily not!
The cell phone does provide some few Conveniences, In SA you had to drive all the way back to where you started in order to redo missions that you failed. Besides that the cell phone can often be a pain in the ass, When you have unwanted calls.
So much of the stuff that made SA great is missing from this so called sequel.
The loss of the Tuner autoshops is a major one, I loved modifying my vehicles in GTA SA. I once rigged a taxi cab with back fins and nitro boosters.
The music is shit!! Every channel is garbage!
Once GTA IV mania ends, A change in assessment will come among the fans once most reach the end of it.
The only fun thing on the Tv was the "republican space marines", Obvious spoof at current American politics.
It doesn't deserve a score of 10-10!! Even 9-10 is too generous,I think 7.9-10 or 8-10 is a far more accurate score.
The only improvement is the Graphics and being abled to take cover around corners while shooting. The GPS map system is helpful for navigating , The cell phone can be a convenience. Oh yeah you can get drunk which can be humorous.Other then that all the new editions pale compared to what is missing.
Bowling Sucks!Darts are retarded!8-ball is the only reasonably fun mini game.
Comedy acts and cabaret shows suck! It could have been made as something fun if you were allowed to heckle the performer or better yet shoot them.
Bugershot and Cluckin Bell doesn't have a workable drive through to speed things up.
Car washes are pointless! Where is my autoshops?!! Why cant you have free rider mod cars anymore?
