    I have a pretty decent life now, but thats only been for the last 2 years.
    Cos I wasted alot of time on the first 3 gtas.

    If i get gta 4, will i be able to stop,
    Is gta4 as good?

    If you're like me you'll have an insatiable desire to get through missions to unlock new parts of the city etc., but once that's done you'll start to get bored and give up.

    Don't worry, I got hooked. But the main story missions aren't gonna take forever, certainly not a very long game. So you won't be in front of your xbox/playstation till the day you die. Feel free to get hooked.

    Ye dont worry..you'll probley find this is one of the first in the series that you want to trade in


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,132 ✭✭✭silvine


    Or the first one in the series that doesn't get so hard towards the end it's frustrating

    I thoroughly enjoyed it and it's the first GTA i've completed since GTA III. Best game I've played on a long while. Haven't played much since, although I did pick up Drakes Fortune (PS3) for 15 quid w/end before last and having a blast with that.

    Oh god the bank robbery in VC, don't remind me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,688 ✭✭✭Nailz


    No, this GTA is one you would get bored of quite fast I'm afraid, not half as addictive as VC or SA.

    PI?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,559 ✭✭✭blaze1


    yup this game is definatly not one that you'll keep going back to, I've tried, and the multiplayer is ruined by dumb americans........
    mine is getting traded not bothering with the dl content

    Excellent. I got the 40" version (46" was too big for my room). Couldn't make games look better!

    My god that sounds like a sexual TV!
    If you ever feel that GTA is taking over your life again, I'll be happy to take the TV off your hands to remove the temptation of playing...

    Didn't feel the need to complete this 100%, and only just got around to finishing it recently...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,688 ✭✭✭Nailz


    Well!!... ehh... I've got a 100", so there!!! Ehh! :p

    Dude I forgot... oh god, were you???

    I will admit i was being a total fanboi in the months leading up to release until i played it for a while, noticed the lack of shiit tew dew and really got sick of it tbh. Take over your life? Nope.

    It's all true, I haven't played it since May. It's nowhere near as addictive/engaging as the older games.

    Too true I've been playing it since Late August and the characters +storyline doesn't do it to me as it did for Vice City. And I haven't even come to that famous Bank Robbery mission yet!
