I've only had a few shoot outs but no. It's been improved a lot over GTA IV but not on the same glorious level as Max Payne. It's more a Max Payne Light.

Anyway to easily read the news stories or do I have to keep refreshing the home page? I loved using the internet in IV but they've made it weird now.

So I have to take a photo for a mission, but when I take the camera out, it says servers are down and I fail the mission :/

Not at all actually. Which is disappointing. I mean it's the best the GTA games have ever had but it still doesn't hit the heights of MP3.

Sounds like confirmation bias
I was going to wait for this on PS4 - but wife surprised me yesterday buying it.
Holy shit - I'm glad I didn't wait. Such an awesome game (and I loved GTA4) but this just blows it away - and I've only just met Michael!
Drove all around the island with Franklin - the dune buggy is such a fun car to drive. They've nailed the driving and the atmosphere.
Non-stop Pop FM is becoming my guilty pleasure.

Not quite.
But it's close if you get off the default settings. Up the sensitivity and turn off auto-aim and then it feels pretty good. Way better than GTA IV.
we shall get through this!
Why not?

Just woke up to a knock on my door....it's HERE!!!!
I have GTA already, but my UPS guy doesnt show until around 7PM every night. I stopped ordering game I want right away because of it.
Add me to the crew.
Should be here when I get home tomorrow and then I have four days of uninterrupted GTAV
I haven't had to take a picture for a mission yet, but that happens to me too. Have you tried signing out of PSN/Xbox Live?

Yup, I just got wasted by some cops like that earlier. Love it.I love how aggressive the cops are. They have no problem driving head on into me when I'm on a bike
I feel your pain. Mine's been out since 5:30 this morning.
my guy usually comes earlier. usually by the time i'm home from work (4:40pm) my package is there.
'course it's different today.

Tell me about it. I drove in to my garage to dodge them. Went back outside on foot but they just waited for me. Decided to stop running and let them bust me. But nope, they shot me on side. Wasn't even armed :lol

To be fair though, Max Payne was strictly all about the shooting and not much more. So I think for what this game has and offers its def a great move forward.

Got home with GTA V for my Slim PS3.
Pop the game in and it spins a few times, then nothing. About ten/fifteen seconds later the drive makes a quick clunking sound and then stops...nothing else. The game never shows up in the game menu or starts up.
I can start the PS fine, get into the store, still load and play my downloaded titles. I tried a couple of different games and the same thing happened (they never showed up in game menu / never started).
I can stick a DVD in there and it plays it just fine...so the drive isn't dead.
I'm in the middle of an 8 hour full format from the system menu hoping that this fixes it. Anyone ever encounter something like this and have any other solution?
Thanks.

I am so bummed out about the lousy PSN version. I specifically bought it to get the best version of the game, but it turned out to be clearly the worst. The arrogance of selling an inferior and unfixable version of the game as a premium "preloadable" digital version offends me. Where do I turn my defective product in? Oh, now I remember, that is not allowed.
The chance of people at Rockstar and Sony not spotting the pop in issues before release is zero point zero. Considering the huge legal ramifications of doing so, no apology or reward will be issued to those affected by this. Instead, we will get the pleasure of paying full price for the disc version and maybe full price for pc also, in addition to what we paid for the PSN version.
As a last resort, has anyone with the pop in issues on the PSN version tried to replace the ps3 hard drive with an ssd? I would prefer to spend 150 dollars on this rather than buying the disc version.

Omg you can really hide from the cops if you pull into an alley and turn off the lights. Is this the first open world game to not feature psychic police?

Game is running TERRIBLY on my Xbox. Pop Ins everywhere, and the game just restarted on me because of an issue with the storage device I saved it on, the storage device I saved it on is my official 360 harddrive. :|
If I have to buy a new HardDrive to play this game, ugh.

Why the fuck can't I mix and match different clothes items? I'm trying to wear some surf shorts with some Vans style sneakers, and when I put the shoes on, it automatically puts me in a suit. wat

I flew over the military base and died within 5 seconds of noncompliance lol.

I died like crazy once I turned off auto-aim. The hip-firing isn't nearly as good as it is in Max Payne 3, and there's no shootdodge. I had to buy like 30 grenades for the next Trevor mission so I wouldn't pull my hair out trying to kill all those enemies without having to sit in cover all day. I wish it was easier to run and gun.

A couple of hours in, love it so far. When Michael and Franklin met I was hooked.
I've been so interested in the story that I haven't even done any open world messing around yet.

The little details in this game are astounding. For instance, when you switch to the cinematic cam during a chase, it shows the person you're chasing and you can hear them talking. Also, if you crash during dialog, the character will stop talking and then start again. It sounds so natural.
