- Disappointing... =[
This was supposed to be immense, but it isn't.
The offline is fairly fun but leaves you unfulfilled once completed, not particuarly replayable.
I felt it was easy... completed in about a week.
Online is good but soooooo repetitive so only get the game if you are a die hard fan or have loads of money.
Your best of getting COD4, Oblivion or MGS 4...

- Worth getting
I was really dissapointed by the offline game play missions etc. And think that Rockstar have tried to make the game to realistic this time rather than being fun. Because of that i havent done much offline.
Online is a different matter though, i really think it adds a new dimension to the game and would not recommend it without online play. Especially with friends on headset its so much fun.
So i do recommend this game for online reason only.
Rating: - Doesn't live up to the hype
The game was supposed to be revolutionary, it promised amazing online gameplay and a nice long single player. The single player was good but it had setbacks. For example, you will find when you die in GTA 4 on a mission, you have to go back to the start for the tedious car drives that are the beginning of most missions. The feature that allows you to skip parts already completed was present in GTA San Andreas but was removed in the final game. For those of us who are not 'hardcore' gamers or have an infinite amount of time available to replay each mistake again and again it is an unnecessary annoyance that you don't pay £40 for.
The online experience was well overdue and a greatful addition to the game, though sadly the graphics on the playstation 3 online were very low standard. I never really noticed much but the xbox got higher, which annoys me because myself and a friend have a console rivalry. The thing that annoyed me about online was the connections. I have a reasonable connection but all I could connect to most of the time was a game that you have to plant bombs in a rival business's ship. I don't remember what it's called because I haven't played it in a while. The point is that I could only play a couple of team deathmatches in a week. It was annoying, but the game made up for it with the free play game type. Running around killing random people is very fun, despite the fact half of the people get an RPG and just spam it as they are unable to fire a weapon at point blank range and hit you, but apart from all these grievances I have with the game, if you have a lot of patience and a good connection then it is worth getting to add to your collection.

- Very Good with a few irritations
I have given this game 5 stars but really I think it is somewhere in between a 4 and a 5. I'd give it a 9/10.
what this game does well it does superbly and I'm not going to go into detail because there are plenty of reviews doing that. the environment is stunning, the characters and acting are flawless, the internet is a great idea and works very well. The driving feels great. Mobile phone is excellent.
My only critisism is that you are encouraged to keep freinds happy to access thier special services, it puts a downer on the game. The activities involve some very poor side games like pool darts and bowling, all of which are awful, or driving miles to a restaurant or caberet which is repetative. I found myself wanting to unlock the second island and therefore wanting to work through missions and had no interest in keeping people happy at all. I think if the activities that you do with freinds were more varied and played better that idea would be ok maybe.
This may stop the game from being perfect in my opinion, but the overall experience is wonderful and immersive and a big improvement on the series without losing the GTA feel.
Rating: - Great game, but not the best for ps3
This is an excellent game but it lacks a certain something which the previous games had.
The characters are brilliant and the storyline is good, however there is no real incentive to explore or do that many things other than the missions in contrast to previous versions. Also sometimes you feel like you are playing the sims rather than grand theft, it is not such a bad thing but some aspects can get a bit tedious.
This is definately a top game though and deserves a spot near the top of the ratings however this is not a historic or landmark game as many hoped/claim, it misses out on the highest accolades.
