If you are a fan of the GTA games then this is a essential purchase,if like me you buy them because they have outstanding budgets and eye watering review scores then thats another story.
The game is amazing even if I'm not totally blown away i can see what GTA fans of the series love about it,its hard for me to put into words how i feel about this game,one minute i love it and the next i want to switch it of a watch TV instead having wasted several hours accomplishing zero but for may be one mission.
So in my case because of the size and scope of the game and the vast map area to me there is just to much crammed into the map and to much to do,most of the stuff is probably pointless but you can not refrain yourself from having a fancy haircut or a nice tattoo,or in mrnelster case spending most of his evening in the lap dancer clubs with a boner.

.
I know i should not be grumbling on about how much there is in the game and how much there is to do,but in some case more is not always the best way to go and 50 hour games are things i never complete apart from Zelda of old and that wasn't 50 hours but close.
Funny thing is i deleted my game save having played for about 10/12 hours and started again,only this time i am enjoying it more even though i know whats coming.
