Yeah, played GTA4 when it came out, was amazed for a bit, then played SR2 and remembered what a fun game was supposed to be.
I dunno. I sorta like the game. It has some redeeming qualities.
Protips:
★ Do not use auto-aim.
★ You can execute a quick 180 by pressing in the right stick to reverse the camera, then pressing left trigger to aim.
★ Always aim for the head.
★ Cheesy vagina!

The only thing that really bothered me about GTA4 is that it times it felt like a crappy sims clone. With guns.
After GTA 3 I stopped giving a shit about these games. Same thing with more and more band-aids added on. Booooring.
The controls are pretty good. And you can manually aim by just lightly squeezing the trigger instead of holding it. Try it out.
Everything else is fair game, although I wouldn't rank it on any meaningful level of importance, except the save system, which truly is goddawful.

GTAIV was fucking terrible.
Ugh. I forced myself to finish it because I paid fullprice for it (something I very rarely do), and it was torture by the end.

I once followed an NPC and listened to this conversation she wa having with her grandmother.

I loved it when I first played it, but then I played Saint's Row 2 and I realized how shitty GTAIV was in comparison(in terms of gameplay at least).
I agree on all your points. At first I was impressed with the size of the world, but then it just got annoying and tedious. It felt like work to finish the game.
This just in, GTA4 is the new Brad Nicholson.
And no, I'm not trying to say anything bad about Brad. Bahamut knows what I mean.

AND YET it is a near perfect game according to critics. Oh and Im still pissed off that David Hayter lost the award to the voice actor of Niko at the VGA's. I DONT GET IT! Im not a big open world guy, but when I played this game I really didn't think they changed much from the other GTA 3D games I have played on ps2. Hopefully Prototype and Infamous will be better :)
AGREED. After I exhausted the typical police chases, I was basically done with it. I've never found GTA missions to be fun. Maybe because you seem to play them as much as a Stuntman course.
My child, I am here to ask you: have you accepted Saints Row 2 as your personal savior? Please accept this copy of The BiatchTower...it will change your life *flees from angry pitbull*.
oh yeah, saints row 2 was far far superior. in fact, I think that's the game that made me realize how much gta4 sucked.
Niero - I will give it a few points
- the story and writing / cut scenes are above average. it's a shame the gameplay has such huge flaws
- it has/had a huge installed fanbase
- it was well (over)hyped

I like Saints Row 2, but it runs terribly on PC. So terrible that I can only run it on minimum settings whereas I can run Crysis on medium just fine.
I didn't care for GTA4 either. Chinatown Wars is doing well so far (aka- i'm about 25% in and it's still holding my attention).
I'm afraid I'm not aboard this hate train for GTA4
now I would be lying if I said there weren't some disappointments (the thing that probably bothered me the most was that the graphics weren't as good as screens and vids led me to believe) and San Andreas still remains the best GTA so far...
but still, the story and characters were great, the city was amazing, the radio stations were great and I loved the little touches like the in-game internet and TV stations
on a side note, I loved Saints Row 2 also
