Colossal letdown.

I’m quite unimpressed.

And the story is so boring.

Good to know. I was very bored with Vice City after about 30 seconds when I realized it was the same game as GTA with different levels and shit. BOOOOOORING

as soon as you get across, your wanted level goes up to four stars and the cops are impossible to shake.

so you don’t like games that are challenging past a 3 year old mentality 🆒

Splinter Cell was awesome  
Call of Duty was descent  
NFS underground sucked ass  
I just put the original Half-Life back on my PC. I forgot how cool the game was.

i think its decent too…definate step up from vice city  
…and it always takes a while for these types of stories to develop cause of the depth of the game…missions keep getting better as time goes on.

i’ll agree with it being decent, but not a step up from Vice City. The story pales in comparison, but that could be because mafia/drug lord stuff interests me, and gang shit bores me to tears. having to maintain the character (food, haircuts, clothing, et cetera…) really takes away from the immersion into the game as well.

Hopefully they go back to goombas and yakuza for the next one.

like showtime said, as the game progresses and characters become better known an’at, it gets a lot better. And you dont HAVE to feed your character or get his hair cut after those first couple times. Buying food is a way to increase your health. And the clothes you can fuck with at will also. Vice City was a lot better than GTA3 in that you could fly planes, helicopters and shit like that. And SA has been touted as more of an advance than that, so I’ll be interested to see what all tricks this game has up its sleeve.
