Actually, it's terribly boring. The most fun I had was with the face maker at the start.
Everything in this game has been done before. The swearing, the forced and aggrivating gang talk and setting, the whole "lol cars to steal" thing. Nothing is original here. I was hoping there would be SOMETHING that would at least catch my eye here so I could say or think that this was anything more than a poorly made GTA clone. But there isn't. It's San Andreas with an HD coat of paint and that's it. And the whole attitude the game was giving off, the whole "Gang wars" thing, just made me laugh. It was pathetic at how it was trying to be so serious. If the mood were lighter, I'm sure that would be less laughable.
Nothing is done exceptionally WELL either. Hand to hand combat? Shooting? Driving? None of that crap was well done. Hell, none of it was done more than competantly. It was all boring. Dreary. Sleep-inducing. Pick a negative adjective and it applies.
All impressions based off of the demo, of course.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
