By far one of the most satisfying buy ive had to date. This game definitely lives up to the hype. Its intensely fun and it looks absolutely beautiful.
To be ultra critical however there are a few flaws that need working out such as the motorcycle control. Its a bit floppy/loose; in other words its hard to maneuver through traffic (which is exactly why you'd want to use one). Also the missions they send you on aren't in a variety like in san andreas but its forgivable because of the addition of the multiplayer online.
Overall its a great game. Get it and make the city yours.

Impressive images, kinda neat how they game-ified the entire city of New York. But the game is BOOOOOOOOORRRRRRING!!!
Shallow, sub-par game... October 5, 2008

This game is bad. I can't believe I spent 60 bucks on it. Thankfully, I was able to sell it for about half of that.
Story: The story of the game isn't half bad. It follows an immigrant named Nico through Liberty City on his quest for the "American Dream". Along with his cousin and several friends he meets along the way, he obtains his goal. Its a great idea in theory, but when put in this game, it goes downhill. Which brings me to the next part.
Gameplay: The missions are boring. They are repetitive. Drive here, kill this guy, take his stuff, drive back. That is about 85% of what you do in the missions. The other 15% is drive here, kill a lot of guys, drive back. The gun-play is spot on, however the lack of weapons is a disappointment. Like some have stated, the driving is pretty bad. Its easier once you play for a while, but starting out, it is unforgiving. The side quests are VERY horrible. "Hanging out" with friends is not my idea of a good video game. I don't want a girlfriend. I just want to wreak havoc.
Graphics: The graphics are great. Nice gritty feel to the city. Textures are decent for such a huge game. Very minimal pop-in as well.
Music: Grand Theft Auto is well known for its diverse sound track and this game is no different. Several radio stations will keep you happy. However, I would always turn the radio off because you could never hear any dialogue when you were in the car.
Fun: So is the game fun? If you can take pleasure in doing the same thing over and over again, both in story mode and just in messing around, then you might find it fun. I wanted to like this game, but it was just to shallow. I actually did finish the story and could not bring myself to kill those 200 flying rats. What was the point? A shiny helicopter? Big deal.
Multiplayer: Decent. Never played it a whole lot as there are much better multiplayer games out there.
Bottom Line: I can't even recommend a rent for this game. The nine bucks it cost nowadays could be put to better use. Unless you have something like gamefly. Then by all means, be my guest. I tried to talk two of my friends out of buying it (one has a PS3 and the other a 360) and they both bought it...And they both are now regretting it. They said the exact same things I did. Boring and repetitive.
Some bugs online, but overall still a VERY good game October 5, 2008

This game will keep you busy for a LONG time, as getting 100% completion will take you like at least 100hrs. Then there's online too, which has ranks and a ton of different game types. There are some bugs, especially online, but the extensive features and content of this game far outweigh the bugs. The vehicle physics alone are probably better than any game I've ever played with the exception of TOCA.
