Bought this on impulse, first new game I've played in a year or a few I think. Don't regret it, it's very fun, but why are the character models so ugly? Resident Evil 5 however many years ago on the xbox had better looking models than this, particularly the eyes look geniused, although in Trevor's case it enhances his character. Also I want a speedo and dash cam.

There is a lot going on technically that takes away from the character models. The consoles only have x amount of power and they are struggling to deal with the sheer size of the game as is.

I don't really notice if the game is good.

Wish I could stop getting side tracked and finish this game but it's just too much damn fun wrecking everything.

Aye Pete, they are running a hell of a lot on shadows and draw distance especially. Lighting and animation always makes up for low poly models, as they are what brings everything to life. I didn't get hit with the uncanny valley this game, as they weren't trying to exactly mimic people. I thought the character design as a whole was a lot more stylized this game, while still retaining the "grit" feel.

Another big thing about this game is the seamless cutscenes. They wouldn't have been possible without cutting back.

So, I'm at Micheal's house, and Jimmy is sitting in the kitchen using a laptop. I take a look at what he's doing, and he's looking at Niko's profile on Lifeinvader.

Got side tracked as Trevor in between missions. Driving to his safe house in the beach and ran over a couple people so cops came after me so decided to cause mayhem. After blowing up 4 cop cars and killing numerous policemen I proceeded to try to run round the corner and up the stairs to the safe house only to cop a flurry of bullets from behind me and die

Picking this up today..... only problem is it is going to stay in the packaging until the end of the uni semester.

Did I mention how time consuming it is working full time and studying...... I want to play games!!!

I cant comprehend the amount of hours you must have put in to this game to be at a point of being 'bored' (sorry for putting words in your mouth) of single player.

I am so very, very, very jealous.

I've been playing a couple of hours every 2nd or 3rd day, missions, side missions and random destruction.

I haven't even unlocked Trevor yet, really enjoying it

It's not about putting in hours it's just that I've finished the story and going on random killing sprees gets boring for me really quickly. What else is there to go besides go sky diving and racing?

Stocks are pointless, I've missed the window of oppurtinity to make bank and there's hardly any missions associated with properties.

I loved the game but now I'm finished there's nothing worthwhile to do until multiplayer comes out.

Thats what I was getting at. I am jelly that you have finished the story. I know the feeling, I always have the best intentions to 'complete' games, but once the story is done, so am I.

"The game was restarted due to a problem with the storage device where the gate data was installed"

Sweet, can't even play it. So angry.

Anyone else fix this?
