    Is it just me, or is there something so amazing about Rockstar games, which makes them so disappointing in the same breath. They aim so high, and seem to almost reach their target. But there are also so many situations, which these last bunch of gameplay videos show, where they turn out to be "just games".

    Maybe I'm just getting sucked into their hype, but I always hope for more. I hope for "Deadwood, the game", or "The Proposition, the game", or any number of other classic cinematic wonders, the game. But then I play the games (or watch the videos), and the camera is stupid, or the player tries to climb up a 2 foot step and jumps like a spaz, or the gunplay looks dull and repetitive, or the voice acting is stilted and repetitive, and I think: Shit - it's just a game.


    ...I'm still going to buy it though...

    @SirPhobos: you sum up my thoughts pretty well after seeing this gameplay video :-(

    And am I the only one who thinks its counter-intuitive to have the character on the right side of the screen when he's apparently aiming right handed? Everytime the camera zooms in for aiming I feel like the player model is in the way in an annoying way...
