Last thing i want to do is get a reputation for being sensible. And, since I bought SoE on Friday, have only played it once so, on addiction factor alone, GTA3 whups it. Also, SoE does not appear to have the scale of GTA3. Finally, and this is the most subjective of all, it is just nowhere near as cool.

Fact is, it doesnt bother me that its an arcade game, and i know its different to GTA 3. Whats stopped me from getting it is the fact that it hasnt interested me and it soon gets very repetative the further you get.

In my opinion, its not worth my £33:99.

Thank you ardbroilach. He has the most sense out of almost all the people i've seen. He has shined light on the fact that it is an arcade game. Rather than being like GTA3. And most people havn't even played the game, they're just going by what their friends told them. You don't not have new burger at Mcdonalds just because your friend told you it was disgusting, you want to try it for yourself. You see where i'm coming from?
