It is a good thing. It'll take a while to get use to but it's the best once you do. The graphics aren't too bad. Assassin's Creed had better graphics TBH but it's still awesome to look at, especially at night.
Yeah, it feels a lot more realistic... there is just a bit of a learning curve, especially if you are used to GTA3... I have already lost count on how many times I've gone flying through the windscreen!

And don't get me wrong, the graphics look great! But for graphics whores there are lot better games to look at (Assassins Creed being a very good example)...

You, and myself included, need to learn that we can't "floor it" anymore. The breaks can't seem to keep up. Although the cop cars have good breaks.

Speaking of cars, do a burn out for as long as you can, doesn't take that long, and watch the tyres bust.

Damn straight! Flooring it isn't so much of a problem... You just gotta start breaking heaps early... plus you can just rip the hand break and slide effortlessly around a corner at full speed anymore... actually, I'm finding the handbrake to be almost useless... a quick tap puts you sideways, but you wipe off so much speed while sliding that you are better off not using it at all!

And I will definitely try that... (already did a burnout, but I didn't sit on it for long enough I guess...)...

I've noticed that with the handbreak too. It just slides in random directions. I tried to handbreak a corner only to end up doing a 180.

Yeah and that's one of the big differences that I am not all that happy with... in GTA3 I practically never EVER used the normal breaks... I relied completely on the handbrake for all my driving maneuver's... and would fly around the streets like a professional stunt driver! Gone are those days... I am sure I'll get used to it (and learn to love it too)!

Almost one week on. How's everyone finding the game?

I honestly believe that it's the best game I have ever played. I have a few complaints but the good far, far, far, far outweighs the bad.

You can buys cars of the internet but what's the point? You can buy clothes and food and that's about it.

Cheats doesn't lock anything. It only disables achievements on the 360. So if you don't care about achievements, it's no big deal.
