Top 5 list "dislikes" about GTA4

im not too far into the game, but im on the mission where im going to "supposedly" get money from dimitri and am meeting jacob at the warehouse for backup.
ive missed it 5 fucking times now because jacob cant get his jamaican ass inside the car fast enough for me to drive away before the cops shoot me in the damn head. i hate that it takes forever to get inside cars/get on bikes, etc.
im also not a fan of the handling of the bikes, its hard for me to do the chases and shit. I do, however, find pleasure in driving the semi's and being able to demolish pretty much anything in my path. . I like the radio, some of the stuff is funny, but i agree, hilarity is not yet at 100%, imo. Still, sweet game, one of the most interesting story-lines i've played through.
 
Too fucking dark
No car/character customization
No airplanes
Not as funny (so far) as GTA SA
No tie in's to other GTA's (that I've seen yet anyway)
 
I wasn't saying they do suck at video games, but their inability to control the game falls directly on their ability in GTA. Not the other way around (since most people can control the vehicles fine)
 
i dont mind the driving but i perfered the Vice City driving because it was alot more fun. Some times when i go into reverse to spin around the camera stays so when i put the car in drive the left and right are the oppostie of what it would normally be which can fuck me up at times

Sure I could spin the camera around but then i have to take my finger of the gas and put in on the R3 button slowing my ass down. Keep in mind the name of the game "grand theft auto" So i dont have much time on my hands when behind the wheel
 
The driving is great actually...you can't barrel into a corner flat out and expect it to turn. That's how driving really is.

The game is too damn dark at night and when I turn the brightness up so I can see the daytime looks all washed out. That's my only major complaint. Oh and Michelle needs to fucking say something on our dates. Standing there playing pool in silence is weird and uncomfortable
 
in the TV in the apartment, they mention Las Venturas on the Poker Show, as well as on Radio Broker (i believe) talking about the clubs/strip in Las Venturas.

I'm still waiting for the cameo from a previous character. They had Claude (the GTA III guy) in San Andreas and I believe they even had Tommy Vercetti in a mission in San Andreas as well. In for massive ending where GTAIV-ilized versions of Claude, Tommy and CJ taking Niko to San Andreas/Vice City for the DLC
 
i love the classic X and Square buttons and wish the new Maddens had the same option. Kudos to Rockstar for showing us stubborn old schoolers some love

I always felt that the L2 and R2 buttons on the PS controller were in a very unnatural postion and are only good for misc controls..they had it right in the PSX/2 days..i dont know why all the newer games are changing it up by using the far back buttons as a main control... it just doesnt gel as nice. IMO
 
Ever since I got a 360, i've noticed all games were like this. First game I noticed it on was Dead Rising. They're made for big hdtv's so I bit the bullet and bought one
 
That's the point. The circle is the area where they're looking for you.. Your wanted star will turn gray if they can't directly see you.. In order to escape from the police, that must be gray and you must be outside the search radius for a set amount of time.
 
the cars ahandle like shit.Your opinion on it is wrong. When a garbage truck and a motorcycle handle the same, something is wrong. When you go over a bump @ 3mph with a car, and it sends you 14 feet in the air, something is wrong. If you hit the brake to hard and your SUV does 26 corkscrews, something is wrong.

The camera is fine most of the time. But, it should have a MUCH greater bias to stay BEHIND you. I hate driving and trying to turn and the camera is looking at the side/front of my car. Thanks, i really needed to know where ive been instead of what was in front of me Yeah, ive learned to turn the camera with the way i turn/walk..etc. So, i have to manually do something that should be done already...that doesn't make it alright.
