Another controversial review from the VGC?  I'll let you be the judge.

I have to disagree with you on the humor, I found the radio programs to be absolutely hilarious and I don't see how it's "juvenile"  or "racist" at all.

I am not sure what is more annoying....a 8GB mandatory install or the critic whining about it all if the time.

Sega-Make it easy for you how exactly?  I don't get what you're trying to say?[confused]

The install wasn't an issue for me,  I own an older model 360 so I didn't have enough space for the game without buying an HDD anyways, so I didn't have to get rid of anything to make room for it, and the loading times weren't that bad.

P.S. the robot movie was funny as hell.

Oh so the install wasn't an issue for you.  You just had to run out and BUY AN HDD FOR THIS ONE FREAKIN' GAME!

I must admit that Dave is being far more realistic than most critics in this regard. His review was right on the money. And he even matched my score. Well, we have till spring to wait for the best open world game ever.

I meant it wasn't an issue because I didn't have to clear anything out, and I was planning on buying an HDD sooner or later anyways, GTAV just convinced me to get one ooner rather then later, that's all.

Mr. Critic - I haven't played the game yet. Can you give me a specific example or two of racism in the game?

Also I agree with being turned off by things that are raunchy. I appreciate sex & violence, but demand to have some sophistication & class.   

Nice review, considering how much time, hype & budget this game had I don't think its going to raise the bar of excellency up much by my standards. Also thank you for acknowledging the 8GB install requirement & the long loading times (not everyone is like NewModelArmy where they either don't want to know about it or want to experience it firsthand for themselves).

The mandatory HDD install is to decrease load times as it streams from both the HDD and the play disc. In fact, I heard it doesn't load at all after initial game start up.
