... and it will just create more controversy, sell more games, and in the end accomplish the exact opposite of what they idiots are trying to do.

Anyone else find the driving a tad touchy. I played it last night and the driving was the only thing that bugged me. Its not like the other GTA games. Maybe i just need to play it more.

It depends on the car you use, I find. Just like real life.

Also - did you play the other GTAs on PS2 and this one on 360? Just a thought.

Played it on the 360 at Dylflons house. I also hate that Brucie guy. Such a weiner.

For a game that's currently sitting as the best reviewed game of all time, the gameplay in general just felt kind of sluggish to me... I'm not going to judge it until I get a 100% working controller, but one major gripe I have is that I can't seem to find an "auto-jog" option... As in, no matter how far you move the analog stick, he won't jog unless you press A...
I haven't played them in awhile, but i could have sworn last-gen GTAs had analog-sensitive walk/jog on the analog stick itself...

My favorite was the lady who said "I think kids these days lose a lot of social interaction yada yada"... The guy was 27...

Hell, I'm one of the most socially isolated folks you'll come across who doesn't suffer from Asperger syndrome, I've been playing violent games since age 10, and I happen to be one honest, laid-back, non-violent muhfuckah.

That's one of the first things I noticed last night when I play it at my friend's house again. It's pretty annoying because I vividly remember in past GTAs walking speed correlating directly to the degree and force to which one moved the analog stick. So... yeah, that could be considered a flaw.

Here's the deal with driving. If you obey speed limits and drive as one would in the real world, the cars are fine. I tested that last night. But we all know no one drives like that in GTA because it would be boring. Everyone drives at least ~50 miles everywhere and at those speeds in city streets, it's going to feel like a boat or hovercraft.

GTA IV on npr. Sixteen minute segment with Adam Sessler vs. John "Jack" Thompson seven minutes into the clip. Rather reminiscent of Geoff Keighley on Fox News.

Little easter egg that pokes fun at Apple. Can be seen on the internet on one of the computers in the café.
