i like the game so far. the driving on the game is a sinch. playing alot of racing games gets you used to most driving formats of any game. though cornering can be tricky though it's just a matter of how you brake+e-brake+accelerating.

i would have to agree that the acceleration on some of these cars is poor. traction can be shitty going up hill and what not. and rain makes it so much worse for accelleration. i find it fun to get drunk and drive though. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

shooting to me was sketchy as hell for the first 4 hours. though now i feel i'm beginning to get used to it. the hiding behind objects keeops ****ing with me but i'm getting there. overall i liek it. but i can't wait till i get my tv. then i'll enjoy it even more.

One thing I don't like (it may seem petty)

I don't like how on the bikes when you press the L thumb stick forward, you'll do a friggin burn out in the highest gear!

i also JUST heard that if you are some what of an acheivment nut for 360 users that if you use cheats you cant get most acheivments...idk about you guys but i like getting the tough ones...puts a f-ckin crooked smile on my face

i know if you use the helicopter cheat, it disables an achievement. but i dont think so for the car ones.

Well I thought this game is alot more realistic than san andreas. Like you have a cell phone with txts and all this other shit. And you can dial 911 to steal a cop car or something. When you do a crime in an area, dont stay long because someone will call the cops themselves. Almost everyone in the city has their own personalities and different looks. I have not ran into any civilians who looked the same or had the same personalities, like cops, there would be the chubby ones, black, white and even females. The driving is hard, but it takes a while to get used to. When you played enough, you will be going around corners fast. The story line is pretty cool. And the main guy is ****ing badass, he dont care about dying, and isn't scare of no one. Its cool when you get into huge fire fights and he will scream alot of mean shit. There was this tv show I was watching in the game and it was pretty funny, it was about us marines traveling through space in a ***** shaped ship with a condom on it. I though it was pretty funny when I was high. But you will love this game.

I hear if you hold gas+brake and do a burn-out long enough, the smoke will change color, and eventually your tires will burst.

tis true.

but if you watch the vid of the cycles... they are flooring it in that vid, thats top speed. it feels like they are crawling along.

because the cop cars can almost keep up with the bikes. i dunno, the cars traction and weight ratios are all off and it makes it feel silly. i dont know about any of you, but if you go round a corner in a rear wheel drive and you are drifting, once your tires catch the pavement you launch off, it feels like in every car and situation the driver is trying to start the car in second gear from a stop when you accelerate. you hear the engine rev up but the car moves slow and the tires dont spin like he has the clutch in or something.

eh. i just wish the acceleration and weight ratio of the cars were better, and the game figured out what 'gear' to put the cars in rather than just 'the faster you go the higher the gear and unless you stop it stays in high gear' //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

The PS3 has frozen on me once, seems to be a problem but the cut scene froze while they still talked and it caught back up and worked fine. They already have a patch for it, and haven't had a problem since.

And what bikes do you drive that police keep up with? On the sports bike, I can get rid of a 3-star pretty quick. And I think you care a ***** to much about the driving, its not Grand Turismo.
