My conclusion to the game is, i enjoyed it.  Its a fun game overall, i think the graphics are nice, and the story line is not too bad.

I found it really easy though, i ended up putting it on the hardest difficulty and still found it not overly challenging. I failed i believe one mission two times on the hardest, but the rest where too easy i think.

Anyways , if you have not tried the game i would recommend it. 


The only con i can think of is, you get freedom to do what you want, but its basically a story mode, you dont get to make much choices in what you want to do, its always the main mission and you cannot stray, i was expecting a little more balance between choices in what you want to do... eg.. buying the house you earn? choosing missions (side ones if they had them) The car customization is a cool touch but its also pretty basic, and damaging your car + reparing it costs alot. If you drive like me you will damage it alot lol.

Anyways just my 2 cents... oh yea.. i beat the game in 1 day, but i did play it for quite a few hours straight :)

I give it 3.5-5 stars.

    Yeah I beat it over an hour ago almost 2, great game tbh. I had some difficulty trying to rush things and I play in 3d vision, makes the game that much better tbh=) I personally think its 5/5 stars. Only part I didnt like was the ending kind of sad is all I am going to say.

    There is a great amount of wasted space in the game. There are many areas that the story line doesn't take you, and I have yet to find side missions or  side stories related to many areas in the game.

    So much work to do... someone has to do it.

    Most gamers are shorter, they want us to pay more for less.

    I agree there is tons of areas not used in the missions.

    And yes the ending was quite sad... i didn't expect that.
