For me it would have to be True Crime. I had been looking forward to TC since 2002 as I was expecting a good contender for the GTA crown. But I found it to be quite a disapointment.

It lacks the freedom of the GTA games, fair enough you can drive around 250sm of LA, but what can you actually do in them?, nothing much. You can't walk around and go onto rooftops, you can't use any planes, boats, or any other mode of transport other than cars. The cars sound terrible, in fact they sound just like they did in Vigilante 8 on the PS1. Actually the sound effects are just atrocious in general.

The cars also feel pretty underwhelming to drive, they all feel feather light and pretty boring. At least in GTA when you get hold of something like a Diablo Stallion, you feel as though you are driving a powerfull car, as it appears to have some weight to it, and the engine sounds fantastic.

But it's main problem is that it freezes up way too often, you can be half way through a difficult mission and the game will freeze, meaning you need to start over again. A major problem in my opinion.

So for me the most dissapointing game of 2003 was True Crime.

So what game were you least impressed with last year, and for what reasons?

You say NFSU is great, yet you don't know about it? Hm. Oh, and play Pro Evo 3 - it makes FIFA look average.

He was just saying that he didn't think much of those games online. Does it really matter if he posts that in the XBox 'forume'.

You should think. Just in general.
