I agree with you in almost every way VA.. Apart from the driving.. If driving was as easy as flicking a switch even Optikal would be doing it. There's a learning curve too driving which GTA IV captures perfectly.. At first it feels awful but with practice you master it and can recognise which vehicles will suit you and then throw them around with panache.

As awesome as it is to play as muscle bound large breasted hooker in fish nets, g string and nipple tassles and seeing yourself in all the cut scenes the driving honestly can't be claimed to be a triumph. It just isn't.

I've played SR2 a few times at my mates house, and it seems to almost be a clone of GTA: San Andreas, which I'm certainly not saying is a bad thing. That was second best GTA. (Vice City obviously taking the number 1 spot)

Well they've certainly taken the spirit of GTA:SA and run with it.

I tend to think that Vice City was over rated.. It was too flat.

The first one was best and then San Andreas was second best.

Bob, Vice City is definately the best GTA. The atmosphere it gives off is just fantastic. And it has the best soundtrack for a game ever. Gameplay's good. City's great.

No it's not. The atmosphere was ok. But remember I lived through the 80's. It wasn't that great. And neither was Miami Vice.

It doesn't have the sheer scope and space of San Andreas and it doesn't have the vertical depth that made Liberty City so much fun.

With Liberty City are you talking about GTAIII or GTAIV?
