When you first load it and the first cut scene finishes, you find yourself in an amazingly detailed and enormous next gen world. This is the first hint at what you are about to get involved in. I stayed away from this at first release because I thought it might be a dull time-suck. So far (13 hours of play 130 gamepoints) I have to say far from the truth.
The story line is strong enough to carry you and the side missions are great too. Some I will have to go back to when I have grown my character's attributes more.
Stunned, and addicting.
