Grand Theft Awesome, unless youre one of those people with just the 4GB HDD on 360. Game requires that you have at least 8GB free to install disc one. You can then either install disc 2 as well, or simply play the content from the disc, but you absolutely have to have 8GB storage on 360 to play.

Minor nitpick, they're still using A for the goddamn sprint. SOME OF US LIKE TO TURN OUR CAMERA WHILE WE RUN FOR OUR LIVES, R*!!

Heh.

That aside, the hour and a half I spent with it was loaded with awesome. Driving is phenomenally better than 4, and the cover and gunplay system is right on point. Gunfights are a helluva lot of fun, and that's really a GTA first for me. Seems like you can finally use weapons besides an SMG while in a car as well, as I fired a regular pistol out my window at someone who wasn't moving along fast enough. They got the message.

Streamlined the radio stations into a weapon wheel like menu, so that you can flip to your favorite station, or if youre like me, turn it off, instantly.

Minimap is great, allows you to see a lot of area around your location and GPS guide gives you a line to your destination.

If you get messed up, your character reflects that with visible injuries and bloody clothes that persist until you return home and save the game at the bed. I took a bit of a tumble off of my BMX on the halfpipe and looked like roadkill.

Quick Save option available through the cell phone when not in a mission. Thank You Jesus.

The ability to replay missions becomes unlocked at the end of each mission, so that's cool. With as many ways as there are to approach these, this ups the replay value instantly.

That's about all I have for now. I didn't play very long. Did a few missions and laughed out loud several times at the dialogue, so really looking forward to more of that. The big installation time, and downloading my ability to fly the blimp really ate into my play time this evening. Calling it a night, and playing some more tomorrow.

Everything points toward this being a ****ing masterpiece.
