2.0 out of 5 stars Just not as much fun as I had hoped, December 5, 2010

I've no specific complaints about the game, it was pretty much as expected, and being able (since I was MUCH younger) to distinguish "play" from "reality", I had no problem with the mayhem filled subject matter. I'm a big fan of "First Person Shooters", and tho' I am also a decent real life sports shooter (you know, with REAL firearms) myself, I've never been tempted - by a computer game at least - to go out and do violence.


But honestly, this game wasn't all that thrilling for me. I remember the thrill when I first got my Motor Vehicle Operator's Permit, but now - some years later - driving has for the most part become just a chore to get done with as little trouble as possible.

And I'm not even considering buying a Minivan yet....

Somebody else might find this game a lot of fun - just not me.

The game did laod and run fine with no special PC upgrades. Sometimes that's the biggest problem.

Maybe I'll give it another try in a year or so. Or not.

My only ding is in graphics - even when it was a new game, i was not all that impressed. However, the gameplay is great. It's nothing like the new GTA games, except for the main concept - steal cars to complete missions and kill anybody that gets in your way! The way this game played was very different - instead of a full 3-D environment it was a 2-D birds-eye view, with you in the center. It was actually very effective, and you really didn't know what you were missing until GTA III came out.

Just like in the newer games, you have to complete missions and the more you were noticed by cops, the more persistent they become. And like in the newer games, you can run over people and wreck your car, then get out and start wasting everybody with machine guns, rocket launchers, and flame throwers while getting a new ride. It is a very simple game for people with very simple taste.
