GTA hasn't been good since Vice City, so it won't be anything new.

^is stupid. Finished your sentence, you're welcome.

And 4 wasn't bad. It was a disappointment when compared to SA, but still a great game.

Huh...I am enjoying the hell out of RDR right now. To each his own I guess...

R* is awesome, it's one of the few great gaming companies that hasn't become complete and total crap.

Please tell me that you're speaking ironically.

San Andreas was one of the best games of all time, was certainly second to none in the GTA series. GT4 wasn't as good as San Andreas but it was certainly better than vice city.

Red Dead/GTA IV/Midnight Club: LA/Max Payne 3 are great games.

Basically this. GTA hasn't really been anything new or really fun for some time. I got bored of SA pretty ****in quick. GTA4 I got bored of. I always get bored of GTA games half way through or less.

Rockstar is one of the best.

Go play Saint's Row or some sh*t if you don't like them.

Rockstars shortcomings really show up in multiplayer. I can tolerate some clunky controls when the world is so amazing, because they continue to create some of the best and most immersive worlds.

But in MP when that's all you have, ugh. You can see this in GTAIV with its clunky controls and no party system, and they never patched it to allow e.g. XP events. You can see it in RDR with again some clunky controls and awful MP maps. Max 3 was also terrible online.

Like I said, they make great worlds and characters with good stories, so I can tolerate those shortcomings. Do the games deserve the high scores reviewers tend to give? Probably not, I'd probably drop them 5 points for their controls and MP.


Quoted for truth.

Their combat systems have always been pretty awful. It's amazing how games like, say, Mass Effect for example (even ME2 and ME3) get slammed for having "terrible shooting mechanics" when the shooting mechanics in Rockstar's games have been consistently worse than the Mass Effect series. Bethesda is universally considered a quality developer while people at least admitting that the games have glaring flaws (combat is consistently awful, tons of bugs). Rockstar is more or less the same thing, but their games get a pass for whatever reason.
