Only reason I haven't completed this one yet is because I have so much crap going on right now, in a few days I'll have plenty of time to finish it up. It's so fun...

Yes, it does sound good; does it have replay value?

I would say it has replay value. Even after you beat the game you can still mess around in the huge city. Plus it has many multiplayer game types.

Do you mean the Russian song.

That's Seryoga's king ring. Another one of his good songs is 2kaiser.

Can the people tell me without spoilers, do I actually get to use the money I've earned later on? I has so much, but I can't buy houses or nothing.

Well I know you can buy clothes, guns, and when you go out with people you spend money. Or buying $1 burgers and hot dogs.

The money is virtually worthless. The maximum amount you can spend on anything is like, $1000 on a suit, excluding weapons. Unless you get arrested or absolutely love destruction, you won't be buying a whole lot of weapons anyways. They give you a ton through the story so you don't have to worry about not having enough after you finish it, and you'll pretty much have enough for the rest of the time you play, between dying, weapons, cabs, food, etc.

This GTA is deffinatly a step backwards in the series. The graphics are better, but they can't even compare to other games in this time.

But isn't it ironic how people say this game can't match up, when GTA is the benchmark for Open Ended games? Whenever a game has a Free Roam Mode, it's always compared to GTA. The sotry can be shaky, due to the open endedness of the missions and whatnot, seeing how theres variables at every step, but I think it's a great game from what I've played.

I say in terms of the overall "sandbox" (I hate that term to death, everyone uses it!) it is a step back. There are less weapons, less vehicles and no planes. The game also kinda dislikes you screwing around as much, you can't even shoot a damn pigeon without cops chasing after you.

Those are legitimate arguements, but with gtaIV its trying to be realistic so it does work in that sense. I still find the game totally orsm but understand if people have those complaints...

I've gotten (to a degree) the hang of driving now. I find the police the most annoying issue now. The above point coupled with the random spawning when trying to get out of the search radius. Sometimes its dead easy, sometimes I'm trying to escape a 1 or 2 star wanted level for ages and all I'm trying to do is go to a damn mission point.

This.

I can eject a passenger from their car and fling them to their death, but as soon as I shoot at nothing, the cops are on me. Out of the 200, I had to deal with cops at least 100 times because of that crap.
