    i wasn't crazy about it at all. gta games get old quick to me. same kind crap over and over again, they are fun for a couple hours, then i just get sick of it.

    Been playing it for about 3-4 hours now and I gotta say I think it's well worth the asking price. The fact that its a lot easier to stay on your bike is a big improvement. The new weapons are quite cool and there are a few new features that are quite interesting. I'll give a more detailed review later on. In the meantime there's an IGN.com review here. I'm off out for a ruby.

    That brings back memories from the previous games.

    I've just started playing thru some of the new story mode, and it seems pretty good so far. I like how they've tweaked the bike handling.....I avoided bikes at all cost previously.

    Obviously anyone who wasn't very pleased or impressed with GTA4 originally probably shouldn't bother with this expansion. If you didn't like the game much before, the DLC won't change your mind. But anyone who enjoyed the game owes it to themselves to pick up this add-on. It is worth it.

    I was just stating what the package is supposed to offer.....no one's putting a gun to your head to play it.

    I don't go into threads concerning games I could care less about. No need to be snide and cranky because some ppl like a game that you do not.

    LMAO. I know what you're talking about...but they didn't disable killing. You have to watch out for hosted freemode games that have the Friendly Fire option turned off. I pulled my hair out thru several game sessions before I figured out that turning that option off basicly means that no one can die as the result of anyone else's direct actions (gunfire, explosives, running over with a car, etc...).

    I now avoid games that have that option turned off........or I just start my own with my preferred settings and invite some friends.
