An above average open world adventure that had me hooked for the first two thirds, however it became a little 2 much of a good thing and I burned out towards the end.
So far so Bioshock, well with the addition of some cringe dialogue and a sex fridge. I tried to get through it as the general aesthetic and premise is great, plus it looks fantastic. However the lacklustre puzzles and repeating collect x amount of y sections got very old very fast.
It may be looked at as the black sheep of the series, but I personally really enjoy the more grounded feel and aesthetics of GTA 4. On the negative side the vehicle handing feels like ice-skating up hill and Roman needs to ease up on the calls, seriously dude you're smothering me!!!
A satirical and adrenaline fueled take on the jaded action hero, well written with great gameplay. I still have my ps3 just to play this game whenever the mood arises. Its literally a Max Payne 3 machine.
I've lost track of how many chances I've given this game since it released but I just can't get into it. The world is fine, the zombie hoards are excellent but the story and moments to moment gameplay is as fun as picking up my dogs "business" while out on a walk.
As someone who doesn't go for that specific brand of R&M humour I had a surprising amount of fun with this one and blasted through it in a few days. If I could change one thing it would be the length as it started to outstay its welcome toward the back few hours.
