Great customization with a build-your-character-from-scratch basis, gun fights, gang wars, and a passing storyline, this game has it all. At the beginning, you create you character literally from scratch. fat, skinny, old, young, girl, boy... you basically make your character look like anything from Mr.T to Chuck Norris to Santa Claus to Mini-Me. Then, you got the gun fights. You can hold up to like, ten weapons at a time. there's shot guns, miniguns, handguns, and yes even sledgehammers and night sticks. every weapon feels almost just right (especially the mini gun) but the only down fall to it is that you can't really use them that often or you'll start getting chased by police that seem to come from out of nowhere (it doesn't stop me from beating up hobos on the street with my sledgehammer). Gang fights are somewhat rare (tho you will see your gang members wandering around) and you can even build your own crib (which has a garage for all the cars you steal). You can take hostages (i like doing that with the cops, it's basically the only way you can get away from them) and when you have them hostage you have a choice of things to do : throw them what seems like a mile, blow their brains out, or break their neck like a toothpick. I don't really have much to say about the storyline. It's passing, and nothing more then that. NOW GO OUT AND BUY IT BECAUSE THIS GAME IS A MUST :D

GRAPHICS: 6/10 Let's get a negative out the way straight off, shall we? The graphics aren't great, but it succeeds in a certain level of mediocrity in all areas except a few key ones that really do make for some cinem... Read Full Review
