The original game formed some quite strong opinions I have about current video games and their players. Hoping this one has a good radio station to.

They had this in Game in Manchester today. Guy reckoned if I took GTA3 down first thing in the morning, they would give me £18 trade in. Reckons if I waited til the PM, they would give me £6 trade in

Apparantly there's hours more radio stuff and more talk radio (which I enjoyed)
Plays the same but better graphics, a lot bigger, more weapons (inc chainsaw), motorbikes, more cars, able to fly helicopters.........oh joy
And I've never liked computer games, but GTA3 blew me away coz of the pure freedom and this apparently is better

Just got back 
Looks pretty damn good They haven't got too far through it yet, but great cars and bikes, costume changes, dancing in a nightclub, beating people up with golfclubs and stuff lile that.
Just done a mission where you have to fly an RC helicopter and drop 4 bombs into a building site to blow it up in a time limit. Great fun.
Have to say it looks really good. If you liked the first one its definately worth a purchase, but if not then don't bother.
The music is all 80's style, as you know, so don't expect any more drum 'n' bass
The islands don't look very big, but enough to keep you amused for some time I think. Personally, If I had the first one I wouldn't buy it, but then I wasn't over impressed with the first one. The blur is still there and you don't think you can switch it off like on the PC version.

This isn't mine, but I can't remember who said it:
Computer games don't affect kids; I mean if Pac-Man affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in darkened rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive electronic music.

Quality game. Loads of classic tunes and loads of variety. Spent most of the day pissing around not even doing missions and trying massive jumps on the sports bike.
Wish I hadnt sold my PS2 for a GC now
Anyone notice all the big name voices: Ray Liotta, Dennis Hopper, Debbie Harry, Burt Reynolds, Gary Busey etc.

Lol try pullng the really long wheelies as you get money for em. Some of the jumps you can do are amazing - one where you drive up some concrete stairs and then up onto a roof then over another ramp onto yet another roof - MASSSIVE!!
Best is stealing a cop car and doing vigilante mode!

Awesome game!
Currently at the stage were I just moved into a massive mansion, cos I just killed boss To show my supreme prowess I then had to show the town that I was top dog so unfortunately I had to go down to the mall and shoot up the shops (and shoppers 
)
Fav weapons are the magnum and the pump action shoot gun

Love the attention to detail in the game. I went down to the Malibu Club for a bit of a dance wearing my golfers gear and the Bouncers beat me up
Taking peoples heads clean off with the sniper rifle is a bit shocking though!

if u brake n throttle up on the bike it does a big smokey burnout u can spin it around on the spot to, same applies to the cars. Like the way u can control the bikes angle with up n down whilst airbourne. Awesome game, detail is stunning. The 1st tank was fun Like the RC heli and inside helicopter stuff... not got that far yet

Lol when u get 3 stars and cops r hunting u down they will do anything to stop you. Blockades, ramming, stingers (tyre spikes). Is fun seeing how long you can outrun them - I find a coach does well

The armoured van is awesome for a getaway!
Managed to get 6 stars by going on a killing spree within the mall when I came running out I was faced with 2 tanks and 1 truck full of army blokes . In my wisdom I tried to hijack one of the tanks and got busted
Stingers are class, only had the cops do it on the golf course though
