The driving has changed a lot for good and better reasons..
A bit more realistic for a start as well as not being off or go in the sense that if you want to drive properly holding down the Accelerator is not a good idea and a number of the aspects of driving games are more into the driving. Breaking for example has to be more realistic on your part.
Try driving like a racing game, think more like foza and you can drive better.

As soon as you can, fly to the statue of happiness. Theres a creepy surprise inside. Very twisted, but very cool. :)

What was that "getting too old of games" thread?

You know youre too old for games when you think; GTA4? lol.
I know sh*ts bad right now with all that starving bullsh*t and the dust storms and we are running out of french fries and burrito coverings.

played a few hours this afternoon and it is very good, not as good as san andreas i dont think but im only on 5% complete so might change my mind.

bit too dark for my liking and the physics on the cars is terrible.

I agree about the cars, but not about san andreas being better. I got bored of san andreas after a few hours, didnt even get past the first island, whereas Ive played around 30 hours of GTA 4 already. Its a much better game than SA. There just seems to be much more to do in GTA4 and so much detail has been put into it.

I am fine with the driving I can drive better if you play it more like a driving game and less like the previous ones.

We should arrange some multiplayer at some point

Its easy to compare them, GTA4 grabbed my attention right from the off and is still holding my attention after 40 hours, whereas SA held my attention for probably about 5-10 before I got bored with having to keep my guy in shape and stop him from being hungry, and all that other crap that put me off the game. Just because I didnt play SA as long doesnt mean I cant comment on it.

I didnt say you cant comment I said you cant really compare them - I mean for the sake of argument how do you know if the missions on the third island wouldnt have pushed your buttons?

All you can really state is that you preferred the first 15% or so of GTAIV  or that you disliked a particular aspect of GTA San Andreas you experienced - you cant compare both games as a whole as you havent got experience of both games - youve just got a first impression; using that as a basis for comparison of both games which is a flawed position to start from.
