This game really has a lot going for it and I can see the potential. If you put everyone else's opinions aside and try it for yourself. It'll suck you in! It may start to feel repetitive after a while, but there are plenty of different jobs and tasks to conquer all over the map. Not to mention vehicles and homes to buy. I still haven't finished the main quest line... Its almost overwhelming with how many blips are on the map at once. The story is engaging and interactive and I love that Keanu, aka Johnny, is your sidekick. Even the gigs can be interesting. The character customization is fun enough and progression is insane. I hope to see more rippermod options as well as a variety of different food effects as they are practically useless (and thankfully weightless). The biggest thing I was hoping for in this game was the ability to fly cars and perhaps aerial gunfights... I understand where my dream meets the pipe. Maybe in 2078. Multiplayer?
