Just started playing it (at the painful cost of £17, forced to buy 20k credits :() Probably not worth the price but apparently there are hours upon hours of missions so we'll see.

Bikers are cool :D Driving a long on a chopper shooting people with a sawn off shotgun ala Terminator 2 = win

I'll definitely not be buying.

1600pts? Pffft @ MS!

That's 400 more than any Xbox Original ffs!

Plus that and I found GTA4 dull tbh, and much preferred Crackdown! :D

GTA for me was all about being a black gangsta shooting shit up i just didn't click with Niko at all.

However at some point i am going to finish the game as i think it deserves that as the everything else was spot on apart from the main character.

Well SA was the only GTA game with a black lead, all the rest have been white.

I loved GTA3, and enjoyed Vice City. Never did buy SA though.

And I never really clicked with Niko either, but I had started to warm to him before I got bored with the game itself.

It feels like a different game, still GTA IV but subtly different.

The City literally looks grittier thanks to whatever filter they've applied, it suits the biker theme, the handling of the bikes is better and the characters and story (so far) just have more meat to them. The combat, while I'm sure is the same, just feels tweaked to a more enjoyable degree. I'm just a few hours in and I'm enjoying it a lot more than I did the main game.

The road rash style races are fun too.

May get the DLC sometime when I eventually get round to finishing the main game but tbh I don't feel the need to put the game in my 360 tray and bore myself until I finish it. I would rather put in Saints Row 2 or Just Cause for some fun gaming, something Rockstar seems to have forgotton, GTA 4 is to serious and the whoel 'friend' system gets boring very fast.

I gave up on GTA4 because I got so bored of Roman wanting to go out with me all the time. What a gayer :eek:

The constant having to take friends out just annoyed me to stop playing the game.

I was massively let down by Saints Row 2, the thing i hated about SR1 was the city and when i played the second one i was saddened to see it was the same city. That game lasted 20 mins in my drive

The game i seem to always go back to is Oblivion even tho i have all 1250 Achievement points, every add on (except horses which i dont think anyone got) and done all the missions, i enjoy making new chars and running around.

Totally different for me SR1 was and is a class 360 title the acting was great and the story wasn't too bad either.

SR2 i played for around an hour and gave up everything from SR1 was ripped out and replaced with totally new stuff which i hated.

By way i got the horse armour lol :D at the time it seemed a good idea...

I got the Horse Armor, it wasn't that bad was it? I go back to Oblivion every once in a while kinda wished I had my old xbox with my Morrowind save :(
Had a spell that could make me jump half the island in one go then I had to remember to cast levitate or slowfall otherwise I would end up as splat in the ground. Used to love casting all my summon creature spells and watching as my small army of creatures kill everything in tombs for me.

SR was the other way round, whilst I enjoyed SR1 I didn't connect with the game but SR2 I loved every second only wished boats spawned more often, I know you could press 'y' to jump to the nearest lasnd mass (something GTA4 coudl have done with) I liked Crackdown but there wasn't enough to do same goes for Just Cause really, but that game is just beautiful to watch as you fly around.

I know this is off topic but I want a remake or a sequel to Body Harvest to come out.

Crackdown is amazing i thought a very fun game with 2 people playing anyway.

Just Cause wasn't too bad the story was garbage but the graphics were zomg going to get the next.

Body Harvest is one of my favourite N64 games of all time i loved the way you could drive or operate most of the mechanical things in that game, huge ass trains ftw :)

I stopped playing after the LA Takedown/Heat mission. It was the pinnacle of the game, it all went downhill after that.

I finished it but GTA4 was definitely too much of a rinse repeat from the previous editions.

Tommy (?) in GTA3 was much easier to relate to

I think the GTA 3 guy is called Claude he made a cameo in San Andreas.
Tommy is the guy from Vice City (Still my fav GTA next to GTA 2)

Wasn't GTA 4 more of a graphics forward but gameplay back, naturally more gameplay to be added in the next version.

The gameplay for me atleast was fine it was just the constant driving friends round all day long that did my nut in.

Anyway i've gone out and got this again today gonna get through it.
