I know I'm a bit late to this party, but I am totally not buying this day one.
I got really excited about it at first, but the more I look at it, the more it seems to be hyped up with its detective stuff.
I mean, sure that is cool and all, but does anyone remember why Mafia II sucked? There was nothing to do outside the missions.
You answer police calls? Cool I get it. It isn't mission based, you just move from desk to desk. Yawn.
I mean, I don't mind playing as a cop, I did it in the Driver series(don't get me started on the new one), I did it in The Getaway, and I did it in NARC, and I did it in my favorite cop game ever True Crime, but this game just isn't selling it to me anymore. So what you have fancy facial animation, if the game isn't worth playing but a few times over, there is no way its worth $60.
Now if this game comes out and is as good as they are saying, and mind you this is the only Rockstar title I've been iffy about, then I'll schedule a community gang rape so all of you can take out your frustrations and hatred toward me.
