To people who did like GTA3, VC and SA, With GTA4 aside from the elements which are a result of improved technology: graphics, detail, physics, volume of content (radio, TV, entertainment, etc), etc. Are you finding the whole GTA4 experience fresh and exciting?

To people who did not enjoy the previous games but chose to buy this due to the media attention are you finding that you are liking it or are you finding it the same as previous games?

I ask this because in all the build up to GTA4 I read a lot of previews, it seem to have been built up as more than a sequel, I think one preview I read said that in this instance you may find it plays out like a Robert De Nero movie, a more cinematic experience, basically this was touted as not just GTA in a new gener.

I fall into the camp that loved all previous GTA's but aside from the improved technology I am struggling to find a significant difference with the whole story/structure from previous GTA's... Just as impressive.. which for me is good, but I sold it to a couple of friends (pre release) who were not massive fans of the previous games (GTA games have never been ideal for the easily distracted :-P) and Whilst I am over 30 hours in they have barley scraped a few hours.. I feel a tad guility.....

Well it isn't fresh but it is exciting. It is the same basic experience with more flair.

I bought it expecting a GTA game, and I got a GTA game. Freshness wasn't expected, but it is exciting.

As a fan of the series, I got just what I wanted...more GTA, with better graphics, better gameplay, and an RPG!
