I enjoying it, but i like mafia stuff (sopranos, godfather, goodfella's, etc)

The game has quite a few.....issues.  But its still fun.  I give it a 7/10.  Rent it first unless you absolutely have to have it.

Don't waste 60 bucks on a movie that was supposed to be a game, no replay value for anything but the collectibles, no freeroam but replaying chapters only and it's too fucking short for the money.

But.. judge for yourself.

^Well what was everyone expecting?  Compared to the other trash on the market, this game is pretty decent.

I'm not really understanding the hate being radiated at this game. The story's mint, the graphics awesome and the interface above average. Of course, as with most other games, driving works best with analog input. I can use M/K for driving, but I get tired of the multitap arrowpad method, so when I get around to it I'll plug in my FF joystick and see if this game has good force feedback like the first one.

So the AI acts dumb...pretty much like in any other sandbox game. Fuggedaboudit.

lol. some guy was tightening his wheels so I got into his car. He came over and pulled me out, and the cops came over and arrested him.

I would always punch the door of a taxi cab, wait for them to get out and start punching me and then have them arrested.

...Then steal the cop car they were in and run it off the pier.

Spoiler (highlight to read):
Going off to kill some micks, cops are following me. I stop where I'm supposed to and try to pay my fine. Joe gets out and starts shooting, with cops right there. He pays a bribe and they come over to take my money. Joe starts shooting again. Now it seems to be in an infinite loop of him paying a bribe, shooting micks, and then paying another bribe.

You'd get a reward in vice city if you stopped a criminal with a punch and they got arrested. Gta is my favourate series.

Mine as well.

I just hope in GTAV they fix the one major thing that was missing from GTAIV: things to... you know, do in a gigantic city.

It was missing off roading. In sa you have endless desert and forests and mt chilliad. And jets and proper tanks and gang wars. Except for the graphics and car damage it was my fave gta.

You should be able to outrun them easily in missions that aren't cop-oriented.

Well I finished the story.  Wish it was longer.

Who else just kinda knew joe was fucked from the beginning?  Also, I felt like because of the way Vito narrates the story it would end with him dictating it to the FBI and going into the program..I was disappointed in teh ending..

I got to where I needed to be and didn't want to have to drive more.

So apparently you cant supercharge/add blowers to cars except the DLC hot rods and to cars in the exclusive PS3 "Betrayal of Jimmy" mode.  I can't seem to find any of the greasers' cars either, even in their neighborhood.

Hopefully some good PC mods will come out eventually.

Just finished it. Fucking disappointed. Not just in the lack of true freeroaming, but in the story as well.

Didn't have that true mafia movie feeling to me.

Kinda tempted to bring it back to GameStop and trade it in, tbh..

Do it.

I'm glad I didn't fork over a cent for that game. Pissed me off right at the end. Especially the part where I couldn't fucking free roam.

Didn't have the mob movie feeling? What do you want it to do? Sit around and talk at a dinner table all day? Level up your ring-kissing attribute? FFS, the thing bleeds story and atmosphere out your monitor and speakers and all over your desk.

It takes a good couple of reasonable nights to finish if you don't just blaze through at 140MPH, so that puts it on level with most other games of its kind.

So you played it all the way through but don't think paying for it is fair?
