The GTA3 and Vice City. Boring and repetitive? Interesting theory, which doesn't stand up in practice.

They are two of the greatest titles ever conceived. Yes, there are bugs, but they are minor considering the scale of the game and the number of different genres they encompass.

The mix of so many different styles is what gives the games their mass appeal. To be honest, if you can't find something good or even just decent in these games, then their must be something wrong with you!

I suspect a lot of the negative comments are due to 'format envy' - i.e. "I can't get it on my favourite console, so it must be crap." You usually find that's the case, though few ever admit to it.

I can remember a few Xbox owners slating Vice City this time last year who are now full of praise!

Just my opinion, of course.

WON'T SOMEBODY THINK OF THE CHILDREN?!?!

The interesting thing here is how Ali is reading a word Belldandy's saying and is therefore arguing a completely different debate.

And what was it Ali posted that was so bad it got deleted? Obviously not the exact words, but if someone could just give me the gist...

No, I just don't like it, because, it, er is mindless repetitive rubbish.

But each to his own, and I care not whether you love or hate it.

This is coming from someone who can't even get a decent job at the age of 23. Ye sign me up for a dummy course at University any day, that way I can toss around for a few more years and end up with a degree in sheep shearing.

Lets put it this way, you tell me a better game which includes so many different modes into one and then you can laugh. The GTA games are superb fun to play unless you are a A grade mong who likes to buck against popularity. Most of the people who critise it haven't even played either of them, it was like the release of the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre, people saw the name and commented without seeing it and they were so so wrong. The same applies here unless you are just a compelte moron.
