But what you said about the star system seems all too true. I tired to go on one of those famous killing sprees, and whoa... it did NOT last long. I didn't even get up to 5 stars... You are right the cover system is pretty awkward. Plus correct me if I'm wrong, but it doesn't have anyway of letting you know you are being shot in the back other then the 5.1 sound..... weird....

GTA IV is pretty wicked in every way, shape and form. If you're having problems with the driving controls, there's an option to go back to classic. I personally welcome the new change. You're saying the story started down hill? Come on man, this has got to be the most compelling story in video game history, and the voice acting just helps take it away. Wait until you get farther into the game, you'll get obsessed with the storyline. I love the vibrant colours, and the graphics are just intense. Oh, and I'm glad they changed the gun sounds so they sound a bit more realistic... and loud. Multiplayer is also really intense. Looks like every game bit the dust on this one, and it's about time if you ask me. MY own complaints about it, the new police system. One star - Two star is just too easy. Sometimes they can be hardasses and be relentless, but other times if you have a Sabre GT or just wire your car fast out of the "hot zone", you'll get away without breaking a sweat. Three stars, still pretty easy, but the helicopter complicates things. Still easy to hide from it. I'm just saying. I like how they eliminated the NEED for you to find a paint spray place to get rid of the babylon, but it seems a bit too... Need For Speed Most Wanted, if you ask me. Also, the cover system is far from perfect. My two cents. PS, don't know if you noticed or not, but Rockstar also took a shot at Saints Row. All I've got to say is, keep an eye on the street names. How’s it going Rob?
