Though there are a few annoyances about this game (Requires crappy Games-for-Windows-Live, can be a bit "buggy" to get working properly, it's poorly optimized, some particular missions are incredibly / frustratingly difficult to complete, etc...), overall this game (along with the Episodes from Liberty City) has a lot of action (with a mix of shooting and driving), great story, top voice-acting, decent graphics (and the various cut-scenes are well done) a wide selection of in-game music to listen to while driving, mature themes and some bits of humor too, all taking place in a "belivable" setting of what feels like a living & breathing city. I've put in a lot of playing-time and gotten much enjoyment from this game.
