    The game do have a great depth. I have been playing it for days (casually), and just 5% of the game completed so far.

    Yup still R*`s fault. Should have done whatever they are saying they`ll do now, already. Not after the game has been released in US and EU :rolleyes:

    And it still doesnt explain beatrator (or the Konami games for that matters) ;)

    How do you know they didn't start everywhere at the same time and it's just taking longer with the other countries? Should they delay US & EU release for this?

    I don't know all the specifics behind this, or beatrator, or the Konami games for that matter, but I do know most companies value their bottom line. I just don't see R* intentionally cutting out entire markets unless there is some valid reason. ...unless they're delaying it for some underhanded fiscal accounting purposes or something :p

    Congrats for making yourself sound like a complete moron. :rolleyes:
    I don't like any of Khalid Shaikh's apps too, I'd love for you to buy them.
    If you don't have the ability to read my posts (I dare you to find anything insensible in my post that's not opinionated in nature), or lack common sense, just do yourself a favour and don't write anything.

    This, but CJS is a pretty good copy of GTA.

    And those trends are rather stupid. It just started out as some fanboy of Ravensword recalling that I didn't like the game and posted constructive criticism of it, and thought I must be crazy not to like it. Then it snowballed when I didn't like some others games that were quite popular, such as Minigore, Driver, and GTA.
    Funny how much everyone pays attention to what I have to say. I don't recall ever consenting to such a fan mob following my posts around. :rolleyes: It's like if someone doesn't like Ravensword or GTA the world is gonna end and the person is going to have a cult following around with insulting posts. You people must either work for these game companies, or have way too much time on your hands to pick out every single post that contradicts your preferences.

    For what it's worth, Aurora, I thought your original post was very reasonable. The idea that anyone should be "required" to like this game is ludicrous. I'm really impressed with GTA:CW (even though I'm not a big fan of the series), but I can see many legitimate reasons why someone would dislike it.

    As you know, I've called you out in the past when I though you'd gone over the line. As far as I'm concerned, you haven't.

    Ok, I have to start by saying that I have been a fan of the Grand Theft Auto series since it first started...
    but I can't help but agreeing with your original point.
    GTA is not the style of game that everyone will enjoy, whether from the gameplay or offensive content, many people will say no...

    Personally, I'm thrilled with this title, as it goes back to the roots of GTA...
    with the birds-eye-view and simple controls.
    I do feel like they could have made a better effort in using the platform of the iPhone/iPod Touch, by incorporating accelerometer controls for driving and some form of gesture based targeting.

    ...but overall, I'm very excited about this game being brought to us iGamers

    also back on the original topic, it looks better than the DS, and is half the price... I would say it's a good buy!

    Wow. This deserves a posty for sure, although I'm not sure whether this was deliberate or not.
