Extra animations take extra memory.

You may know more than me about it, but all I know is there's plenty of games that did analog movement extremely well. What situations are you thinking of where that couldn't be applied?

You haven't gone swimming at the beach with the sun and waves yet?
Yea, you can see the wave pass while underwater.
I did that at night, couldn't see shit
I'm on my 3'rd day of being underwater,...... there's a collect mission - I'm circling the entire map - it ain't a fast process.

Just done "the scene" all the press has been talking about. Tbh, I'm not sure how I feel about it yet =/
Well, yeah, but I noticed the framerate goes completely in the shitter as soon as you're in the water.
Most analog movement slows the animation down. That said, more animations would only require more memory if they were being played at the same time, I would imagine.
I, on the other hand, can't think of any. Particularly in a third person shooter.
Yup. First time Michael dove into the water it was so awesome....and then it became obvious it was running at like 15FPS.
I miss that too, no strolling allowed.

I really want proper recoil for guns. I'm free-firing with an Uzi and killing people at distances like lightning. It just feels off, and I feel dirty.

I know the feeling. I own over 1 Billion shares in Hal. If it goes up to 3$ I win big.
Never had a problem with it, the only time i really noticed it was at that one sub mission, besides that it was ok.
water surface looks and behaves perfectly, I don't really recall anything like this elsewhere. maybe Crysis games, they didn't have waves like this though.
it's close. Far Cry 3 water was basically art. This is pretty close tho

This game is visually stunning. I came back from LA on vacation on release date, it's like re-living my holiday! The attention to detail is amazing!

Hackman - Forgotten Noises has to be one of my favorite songs off the soundtrack.
Never heard it before, now I love it lol

The average person who plays games cannot ease into an analog stick like those of us who play regularly. It's either centered or full speed ahead. It's the reason why sports games still have speed burst buttons.
What the game needs (ALL GAMES) is customizable controls.
Here's a fucking sweet feature. I did an auto cloud save on my phone in the game, in the submersible - it was 2am last night, I was tired - only 10 of them found.
I woke up this morning and booted the game and it loaded me not to a safehouse but back to the fucking submersible. I would never have bothered doing the rest of that mission had it not loaded me back in to exactly where I was. Fucking great (3 more things to find)

That line between Michael and Trevor when
I burst out laughing.
Me too. Rockstar SC servers are getting hamered harder than NeoGAF's during E3 I suppose.
they're going to get Lester to prepare the bank's heist..."Trevor...you're a hipster !". Made 10 times funnier by completing the 5th carnage beforehand.

Just pulled up to a mission with Trevor, walked out taking control of Michael.
Trevor gets back in the Optimus Prime type Lorry Cabin and as he pulls off honks the horn like a mad mother fucker.
Fuck, the details in this game are insane, lol

It's way better, but if you didn't like the gameplay mechanics then you won't like it here either, it's basically an improved GTA IV.
I was driving around with Michael when a random mission popped and
I got a one star wanted level but it immediately just started flashing so I just went into sneak mode and tried to wait it out. I looked at my map and saw two police cars approach the area and slowly creep up to my location. I thought I was clear when they passed the house I was hiding behind but instead they stopped, got out, and searched for me with their weapons drawn. They saw me so I started running away and got into my car. It took a long time to start, but I managed to drive away before they unloaded on me. My wanted level went up to two stars and I ended up having a really cool car chase for a few minutes.
I wasn't sure about the new wanted system but I really appreciate it after this.
a woman said her friend was being beaten up by her boyfriend. She took me around back and I got ambushed by three guys so I went into bullet time and took them out. I look around and find her hiding so I shoot her too.

Just beat story. Game was perfect length in my opinion. Great fucking game, tied with san andreas for best GTA in my opinion.

I think it lasts a little longer if you going drinking on a "hangout" but it's still pretty short.

Yeah it's pretty great. It basically feels like it was taken right out of that scene at the start of Drive.
Perfect length, but unsatisfying ending.

Ugh, despite the fact that they added a "combat jog" when you fire a shot allowing you to run and gun, if you don't fire for like 5 seconds the character goes right back to walking, even in the heat of combat. Why the hell did they keep this in? If I'm holding a weapon, I should be at jogging speed all the time. Rockstar should've just completely copied the Max Payne 3 mechanics into this game minus shoot dodging. The crosshair was better, the combat rolls were better, the cover system was tighter, and you didn't gotdamn WALK DURING COMBAT.
Hold to jog + tap to sprint + enemies pouring in from all directions + fragile characters + no damage direction indicator + ultra magnetic cover system + no health items + slow health regeneration + bad crosshairs on the pistol and submachine guns = ROCKSTAR WHY

I was just driving around as Franklin in his neighborhood and saw a guy running into an alley with a spotlight on him and a helicopter chasing him. Every once in a while he would stop and fire a few shots up at the helicopter and then keep running :lol
The world feels so much more alive than Liberty City to me. Pedestrians can potentially do so much more independent of the player.

make sure the pudding isn't too soggy but that just ruins everything
Are you on PS3? Do not use alternate control scheme. If you keep aim/shoot on the triggers, you can hold R2 down halfway and it allows you to jog with just the analog. It makes combat a lot more intuitive (though still a bit clunky, just not nearly as bad). You can also do combat rolls easily while R2 is half-pressed.

I can understand why people wouldn't like Trevor, but personally, I think he's the best GTA character ever. He consistently makes me laugh and I have enjoyed every one of his missions. I do bad things when I play as him.

He killed someone special in his introduction, that kinda turns me off a little bit. Still like him, though.

But shooting with R2 is so bad
And yes I have those clip on trigger things. It still feels awful. I can't wait to be rid of this controller on the PS4.
I play with alternative and do just fine.
I totally agree, all the other main characters in the GTA series are boring compared to this guy.
