The good of the game is still the general fun of it. The new skill system helps but no much. The game is frustrating to no end somtimes though. The game is to big, you get lost relly, relly, easily. The manual aim is worthless, and you spend a lot of time getting shot when your guy manual aims insted of locking on to someone. Your gang members are COMPLETLY useless, because they cant hit anything they shoot at, get you wanted stars, and get you shot at. In a gang war they stand right in front of you when your shooting. Gang wars are very hard when you have a lot of terrotory, and your "hood" is constantly under attack. The eating system is kinda useless. They say you loose stamina when you dont eat,but no eating has no effect on the game, I never ate. When you leave the first city, you loose all your weapons, which of corse when I did that I just bought ten grand worth of SMGs. Now for the good. It's still the funest game you will ever play. The new stat system makes it so you can run for a lot longer, and with the addtion of bicycles, pedal longer. Jumping fences is a relly nice addtion, and swiming is awsome, but you will never relly notice it as much as you would if you could swim in vice city. Bottom line: very fun game with lots of annoyinf and frustrating element, but still a must have.
