Much improved from its original Xbox version..but is it worth getting for the PC?

First, before I start, let me just tell you: DO NOT GET THIS GAME IF YOU INTEND ON PLAYING IT ON VISTA! This game runs terrible on Vista, just like all other games do too. First, the graphics and physics. The graphics of the game are pretty good, and definately beats Driv3r's graphics. The shadows are soft shadows now, and the textures are definately sharper. Also, more objects around the city (almost all) have physics. In Driv3r, maybe a few trashcans and crates, that's all. This is another improvement over Driv3r. Now, when I bought this game, I could not believe a rating on it. Partial Nudity. Wow, really? Since when was the stomach and arms and lower legs considered nudity? Ignore that rating, it's wrong.

Now we head towards gameplay...like other reviews you'd read, I will say that the car chases are fun, but most of the missions are stupid, and are for a very dumb purpose. Something is wrong with me: I always buy these sort of games for the free time. I love going around to explore and kill people, raise much havoc, and test out the physics, and admire the graphics. After I do all that, then I go towards missions. Missions are a second priority to me, and this game is no different. I love how you can totally ignore the storyline and go live life like nothing was wrong, but to some people, that's a deadly mistake. Your personality makes or breaks the game, in some ways. The Driver series have a bad history of glitches. I think they should hire people higher than monkeys in suits for testing the game before release. How the test team they have does not pick up all the hilarious, obvious, but annoying glitches, is beyond me, and all other people complaining of glitches. Sure, every game has its glitches, but this game is just too much. However, it has improved alot from Driv3r's sometimes unplayable glitching. To end this: This game is, because of the low price, worth getting indeed. If your computer is good enough, and you like GTA, then you will find this game worthwhile. If you have this game for the Xbox, I say buy it anyway. The improved graphics make it very much worth it.
