I don't think it was all that bad. I had no trouble knowing when to hop into cover. Although I would prefer having some sort of health bar as well. Take GTA IV multiplayer for example.. the amount of bullets you could pump into a player was rediculous. I remember shooting people in the head twice to kill them, and to make it worse they wouldn't have armor on to justify it. ^This. i always hated having to unload a full magazine into someone just to kill them. i think that max payne 3 had the health right. with the damage zones and stuff.

I don't think it was all that bad. I had no trouble knowing when to hop into cover. Although I would prefer having some sort of health bar as well. Personally I would hate if there wasn't regening health.. Regenerating health allows for more realistic damage without increasing frustration. Take GTA IV multiplayer for example.. the amount of bullets you could pump into a player was rediculous.

Plus I don't know about anyone else but when I'm ripping around the mountains on a dirtbike and fall I don't want to have to carefully make my way back to the city to find a hotdog cart I rather get back up, let my health regen, and get back to having fun.

Decided to walk in a forested area one day, whilst wearing flip-flops. I picked up my right foot to take another step when I realized it was inexplicably heavy. I looked down and realized that there was a board somehow stuck to the bottom of my foot. I angled my foot so that I could see it from the side, and noticed with horror that there was a rusty nail poking through the arch of it. So I started screaming like a bludgeoned fawn once I noticed all the blood. And that's how I got my first tetanus shot. Pics may or may not follow.

all of them are the same, so i just keep the one i have

Posting a spoiler in a post that complains about spoilers. I believe that evens things out.

What?

I agree. mp3's hit detection and gun mechanics were pretty much perfect. It just feels right. Gta 4's on the other hand is trash, but taking into account that the game is like 5 years old I realize it was pretty damn good for its time.

Totally agree. Cheats take away from any feeling of progression and accomplishment. Earning money by doing various missions, activities, gambling or by robbing is better than just entering a cheat. Progressing through the Main Story missions or completing a certain number of challenges/ activities to unlock weapons/ upgrades/ cars/ safehouses is better then entering a cheat. Looking for collectibles and getting spawned weapons that way, or completing vigilante/ ambulance/ firefighting missions and getting bonuses boosting health/ armour and the ability to become fireproof is better then just entering a cheat to become invincible/ or replace your health and armour automatically. Cheats are better for going on killing sprees, and for generally creating as much mayhem as you can, seeing how long you can last against the cops ( although if there is an invincible cheat you could last forever/ unless they have a glitch like in GTA SA where police helicopter rounds are able to penetrate you ). I don't save after accessing cheats, and usually won't fuck around with them until most of the game is completed. And I definitely never use them for story missions. I agree with this 100%. The only time I use cheats is after I have already beaten the game legit, and sometimes, not even on my second, but my third run-through, I would then start using cheats. Only because after a couple of run-throughs, I do get tired of starting off with nothing and having to work it all back up again, so I'll do the money, guns, and cars cheats. I'm not a fan of running through the streets, free roaming, causing mayhem after I beat the game, it gets boring to me; I like to just start it back up again. Hopefully, one day GTA will have New Game+.

Keep it the way it was in GTA IV, please.

Gotta say, I wasn't too much a fan of being killed in one hit by a baseball bat to the head in IV. As realistic as it was, it frustrated the hell out of me. But, when I was lucky enough to do the same to an NPC, my feelings were far different. EDIT: Also, maybe like in MGS3, we'll be prompted to choose what GTA we like best to have certain HUD options change... I like GTA III! Numbers that reflect health and armor percentage are shown in the HUD. I like GTA:SA! Colored bars that reflect health and armor percentage are shown in the HUD. I like GTA IV! Health and armor are indicated by bars that wrap around the mini-map.

You don't remember the year and 12 days between the first and second trailer?
