A great game on the 360 but let down by greedy publishers rushing out an unfinshed product for christmas.

I bought on the day of release for the pc and tried to install it. First off i had authenticate my date of birth online then put in cd-key which also had to be checked online but the program they supplied would not connect so I had to do it manually through there website. from there i got another code that had to be put with the code I already had to recieve a third code off them (bear in mind ive been at this far a while no, little peeved off).
Then the installation carried on that took over just an hour to install both disks, fine i'll watch a movie in the meantime. Once it had finished i ran the game only to recieve an error messege and it crashing. After reading various forum pages on the problems i was getting I patched by copy of xp and installed the latest graphics drivers.
So when I actually tried to play it windows live wanted me to sign in (luckly I already have an account) and rockstar socialclub also needs me to sign in to their site (pass). I'm bored now and the game has only just came on. The graphics um how can I say are poor at best (this game does not support SLI as I found out) and it runs like a dog (or maybe a tortoise). After playing for several minutes I turned it off by the way off blue screen o death, so i rebooted my machine and continued to play Fallout 3.
In summary if you like wasting an evening or two faffing on forums and random patches and signing up for stupid clubs that arn't even releavent of necessary buy GTA 4 or if you prefer fun, easy to install, beautiful to look at, massive game play Fallout 3.
Thanks for reading
