Grand Theft Auto. One of the most popular games on the market...but why? Is it the extraordinary violence? Is it the fact that you can just walk up and steal a car? Is the story so in depth and filled with surprises that you have to play to see what happens next?
I think not.
Grand theft auto has gone downhill since its initial release. The first GTA was fun as heck, offensive, and had at least some replay value.
Ever since 2, GTA has become a gigantic borefest. The game is the exact same people! 2 through San Andreas are the same! Sure they have a different story, and now you have to control your life in the boring aspects...food, staying in shape, keeping track of a girlfriend? What is that?
It's like these games are saying, "Hey we realize that you're going to be wasting away hours of your life doing the same missions over and over, killing the same people over and over, until you finally 'Run a gang' or something. "
I will say that i have not played any of the GTA series since 2, so I do not have an entirely educated opinion, but I have watched people play these games for hours on end.
How entertaining is it to just sit around shooting people and cops until you get stars and get taken out, or cheat and get life so you can kill them and take their vehicles until you forget to put in your life cheat and die when a helicopter crashes on you.
I hate the Grand Theft Auto games, San Andreas the most. The only good thing I've noticed about this game is the fact that they have Rage Against the Machine on the soundtrack, but that song just ended, so the game is back to utter crap.
Do yourself a favor, do not purchase this game, and if you already have, cram the disk up your nose. If you know someone who bought it, take their disk and cram it up their butt. If someone bought it for you...shatter the disk and throw the pieces in their eyes.
