While i appreciate a lot of the experimental choices this game took and think this as a result improved the scope and trajectory of the series, some of the janky aspects of this great game do show through time, and while i find it incredibly impressive when compared to its predecessors and even its successors, i cant stand here and state that this game has no flaws. Losing ALL your weapons when you die (with me resorting to save scumming to save my stuff), janky mechanics (especially gang wars when it comes to initiating one) and some missions being borderline broken (if not broken which is the case for the low rider mission on the pc port of the game, as it without telling the player switches up and down). Still a great game and would recommend to people who were introduced to the series from later games, but would throw some warnings that a lot of the great features in 4 and especially 5 that i used to take for granted are absent in this game.
