    the scarface game

    that ? was too dope...literally,

    they need to make a ps3 port.
    no they need to make a part 2

    managing coke fronts and having shootouts in compounds,
    that ? was too much.

    and the weapomns system was some PC ? . never has a console TPS let you shoot off limbs and ? like that

    and the wanted system was better than GTA

    Current Gen: Saints Row 2 (more fun than GTAIV imo)
    Last Gen: Scarface

    The Saints Row and True Crime games were both average

    First Just Cause was cool

    What about Prototype ? It's a sick game too even if it aint gangsta-themed . Will GTA always be the king of sandbox games ?

    Despite the fact it has about 1001 game breaking glitches Just Cause was dope. Hopefully part 2 isn't so damn buggy.

    That game was F'N ? .. it got mad hard tho when u had to smuggle your ? in on the boats and make your deliveries to all your spots while defending them and dodging the cops.. ? was out of control.. they need one for the PS3 ASAP
    and the weapons system hands down the best ive scene in that typa game

    ...Saint's Row 2 got this, hands-down. It has it's faults, but it's fun as hell and addictive, to say the least.
    Its called "Sand-Box".

    My favourites were...

    True Crime: Streets of LA
    True Crime: New York

    Both really fun games. The maps were huge though!


    ...TC: New York was/still is the buggiest, glitchiest, unfinished game I've ever played in my life (And that included ROM Hacks). Don't get me wrong, it's fun, but not worth having to work through all the glitches to enjoy. Streets of L.A. was madd fun back when it came out (Though playing as Policeman Snoop Dogg is still some random, weird ? ), but it's damn near unplayable now...

    Word.

    Im just going off how much fun I remember having when playing them.

    Well of course. Nobody's denying they were fun games (Especially not me, as [like I said before], I enjoyed both games despite their faults).
    wrote:
    Streets of LA was buggy as ? too.

    ...Yeah, but nowhere near as bad as NYC was--That ? was just ridiculous (And completely avoidable, since the only real reason TC: NYC is as buggy & ? as it is is because Activision wanted to rush it out in time for the Holiday '05 season). In other words, had TC: NYC been developed longer, it could've been a decent, but not great, GTA Clone (Like the 'GTA Stories' and Simpsons: Hit & Run [a.k.a. One of only three Simpsons games that doesn't suck]). But instead, we have a steaming pile of unplayable.

    They got elevation all wrong. I seen floating trees and houses. I enjoyed the storyline too. (not exactly true crime though)

    ...Yeah, TC: SOLA has anything but 'True Crime--' Not when you're fighting 600 + year-old Concubines, Giant Ancient 'Mystical' Dragons, Zombies, Hobos that look like Michael Jackson (Hee Hee!), getting into a High-Speed chase with Halle Berry, a Gang of Strippers who all fight like they're Black Belts, and the JOKE of a Main Character, just to name a few things...

    Hold up--How could I forget inFamous and that Scarface game? I played the hell out of inFamous last Summer--It was fun as hell, but cheap in some parts.

    As for the Scarface joint, I've never played it, but I've heard nothing but good things about it (Besides that Glitch). Too bad I can't find it anywhere now...
    Good post. You pretty much nailed it.

    Props, fam.

    I was caught up in the hype when GTA IV came out too. But after thinking back on it, I gotta say Sanits Row 2, well in it I had alot more fun. GTA IV was a nice looking game, but any game that offers a degree of customization> than a cookie cutter formatted game. GTA IV technically may have been the better game, but don't sleep on SR: 2.

    I've been telling people this since SR2 came out. I agree that GTAIV might be a "better" game, but SR2 was more fun.
