It's proper bo to say the least. I hadn't actually played Vice City before today and I was quite surprised by how much extra gameplay was crammed into it since GTAIII. Motorbikes, jumping out of moving cars, riding on top of moving cars whilst shooting(!)... needless to say I'll be playing these for aaaaaages.
Sorry. Anger wants out.
Just running around the city trying to get as many stars as you can is great fun.

But anyway.

oh well, it's not for everyone I suppose. But then again, I used to play carmageddon 2 for hours on end, and not even complete a stage. I just got too wrapped up in causing death and destruction on a massive scale.
That game was superb - you could run down a pedestrian, then watch a replay from the pedestrians point of view. how I used to laugh ...
Why?
Because you do it for no reason other than itself, and you get nothing from it.
the only downside I think is they could do with a few more mission and less of those silly timed challenges.
Sorry, but it really has no appeal to me. Particularly when you have to contest with the worst draw distances ever in a game, terrible 'combat' and the same nauseating 'humour' thrown at you constantly while Rockstar try to pretend to be really clever...

No more nauseating than Mario Sunshine, Metroid Prime or any of the other Nintendo 'classics'.
