Advantages: Fun at times, varied missons
Disadvantages: slow-down, rough graphics, forced 1st person perspective on 2 player.
Well this game has a lot of hype surrounding it, because of the first game, but quite frankly it is not up to the job. Many other people on this site have given it 5 stars, but it is far off perfect, this is why..... There is so much slowdown on this game, that it is unbelieveable, at times the cars feel like they have no fuel left or something. This added to the fact that graphics are a little rough and shoddy, I mean, it's not even as if it has AMAZING graphics and there being slow-down. Then on two-player mode, WOW it goes so slow sometimes, even though you are forced to use the inside-car perspective. Also the idea that the police just smash into you when trying to arrest you is plain stupid. Even if you are just waiting to get arrested, all they do is try to kill you, and make no attemp at an arrest.......stupid. That said, it is quite fun on going-for-a-ride mode, smashing into all the cars and a new feature where you can get out of the car and rob people's cars. The trouble is that this is all you can do, on GTA you can punch and use weapons, but on this game you can get in a car and out.......that's it. Overall, the designers have tried to concentrate a little too much on scenery and road layout rather than gameplay - but it can be quite fun at times robbing a police car and causing havok!
