Yes its a ton of cutscenes, though the gameplay is good and very well polished too. Its just that the games main focus is on the plot and cutscenes.. its like the ending to the Metal Gear 'Solid' series. If you're a big fan of MGS1, 2, or 3 you'll like it.

The reason I wouldn't reccomend it over a GTA4 is because its more like a movie then a game. (Assuming you liked the older versions) You're not going to want to stop playing it until its over (which will take a few days if you have a life). Once you complete it, it's not something that you'll want to hop right back on. I haven't messed with the online play much, so I can't speak to that.

And yes the visuals are great.

Game: For length I guess GTA4 is a very good point, and something I didn't think about when BaB mentioned Uncharted is only 8 hours. What about gameplay, though... now that it has been awhile since GTA4 came out and all the hype has died down, would you say it was really worth all the hype? Were the visuals awesome?
The gameplay is great to me, and I love the online play. And I think the game was worth all the hype.. And in my opinion the graphics were good, but its not as good as the above mentioned game (MGS4).. its just the atmosphere of the game that makes it better.

You seem to be very undecided.. if I were you I wouldn't even buy any games. Just rent when I'm ready to play haha.
