7 hours in

Holy shit I hate this game. Take away all presentation and voice acting and sandbox gameplay, and the actual missions are actually painful to play because of how glitchy the game is. I used to tell people, "yeah, it has it's problems, but the game as a whole is okay." But it's not. Not at all. This is only making me hate Gamespot even more for giving it a 10.

Clearly I haven't even been playing straight since 5:45 yesterday, but I have not slept. As a testament to how shitty the xbox 360 is, I took an hour break every three hours for fear of the disc breaking or the system overheating. Then I refueled with beer and coffee for uh, 6 hours and came back to it.

What have I learned so far? Cops are basically induced glitching. They don't really try to kill you, they just ram you with their cars to annoy you. Um, every car handles like an average car in San Andreas with the tires shot out. Also, if you don't do exactly what the game wants you to do, it punishes you in the cruelest methods imaginable.
