    yeah I noticed this aswell, it always seemed hard to look at compared to San Andreas which was nice and bright.

    I stuck San Andreas into the 360 for the first time the other day to have a mess around and I was wondering where my saved games had gone to:confused: only to remember that it was on the old xbox:o:pac:.

    San Andreas was great craic to play to, it was fun. I use to love jumping into one of the jets if I needed to go anywhere and fly as high as I could and jump out and land in the middle of the city.

    Yeah. On one of Jacobs first mission I got stuck in an alleyway and couldn't find my way out. But I just adjusted the display setting for brightness and it was fine then.

    Barrington is spot on, the default settings make it nearly impossible to see anything.

    Fiddle around with them till you get the settings right or its impossible to play.

    Seems GTA4 doesn't have too many fans on boards yet San Andreas does, I cant understand this, I thought the whole thing of going to the gym with your character to get him bulked up and changing his haircuts and tatoos was just...sad!

    Put me off the whole game.

    I cannot understand the positive reaction to the environment. its just a bunch of blocks, when you look at it. most buildings are inaccessible. all you have is the street to roam in.

    I disliked most of the customisation too. The car customisation especially, which just felt tacked on. I also disliked the stats and having to eat.
