Biggest let-down game

That kinda ruined the game for me, although the graphics and actual gameplay were the best in any of the GTA games.

San Andreas came out after Vice City

It's no wonder Vice City seemed less interesting to you - no planes and barely any helecopters! Vice City was quite decent for me, and San Andreas seemed a better game because of Vice City and the differences between the two (how San Andreas was more advanced and so on).

Not sure what game was a failure for me... I can only think of GTA IV because of how it went backwards in terms of gameplay and story. The Simpsons: Road Rage was dreadful but I never had any high hopes for that so that probably doesn't count... I guess I shall go with GTA IV.

Oh, and I agree with your rant on games that aren't innovative. The 360 and PS3 have all that power to make a HUGE, amazing game yet don't. I can't quite describe it, it's just games are getting repetitive now, I demand loads of action, flying and using the world as an oyster (wooo!) The Wii I'm not too fussed about, as it doesn't claim to be the best at everything - it's humble

although I'm yet to complete it (on act 3) as I'm more of an online man, online was what I was referring to.

going from a really good matchmaking system, to a crap one. i loved being able to stay in a player match with 5 friends and 3 random guys for hours. now, you never play the same team.

I guess it's just because when a game is really good, you get even high expectations, and it's worse when they are not fufilled.
