I just got the game a couple weeks ago. I avoided it in the past because of all the hate I read about it. I never read about any hype and don't really care what ANY game maker says about their game. It's all lies anyway, so they can make sales. But I read enough good things about this game that I wanted to get it. It seemed like a game I would really love. And it is! I love it! I can't stop playing it. My computer sucks, so it must be somewhat optimized, because it plays well, and looks great! I can just go around and do stuff I wanna do. There are some quests to do, and I'm doing them as well, to get my base built up. But looking through the reviews from last year, all I can say is, not a single one of them is at all helpful. Seriously. Everything they complain about isn't true for me. So they anti hype is all about lies, too? I dunno. Maybe it was true, but it's not any more. The one cavet here is, I don't like most multiplayer games, so I'm not playing this one for the multiplayer.
This is version 1.06. Version 1.08 has been talked about for months now. (oh, what happened to 1.07?) Stuck, even BEFORE Georgia Ave mission. Garden Ave area, where I need to own all the casinos (I do). It's actually yet another game breaking bug that some people encounter. If you restart the area, you might be able to get around it, but I'm not even wasting my time. I got it when it was free, so I'm not going to complain too much, but now I know why it was free. Still can't finish it! Oh, for what it's worth, I was actually enjoying the game up until the break. Decent 3-4 star game.
