It has nothing to do with sour grapes. I could afford a 360. But it's not worth my money. Neither is Gta 4.

: I want to agree with the Illest Duce here -- I
: think this is sour grapes. Let's take this
: one step at a time:
:
: "It's pretty obvious that, no matter
: how much you like the gameplay, the story of
: GTA 4 is pretty nondescript. It was nothing
: that GTA fans haven't seen before. No matter
: how much you hated San Andreas, you'd have
: to admit how creative the story was."
:
: Not being a GTA fan, I don't care all that
: much whether it's been "seen"
: before. If you take that route, then San
: Andreas would register as
: "typical," since you're
: technically going to random spots around the
: city and accepting missions from random
: people you meet in the game. I care about
: how well they pull it off, and they manage
: to do so quite well here (and a lot of GTA
: fans seem to think the exact same thing as I
: do -- the comments on that page you linked
: to exemplifies this).
:
: I don't find San Andreas' story to be
: creative -- I just find it random. If it
: were creative, I'd enjoy playing it more;
: end of story. I was not intrigued by the
: story at all -- it was like a drunk pissing
: patterns in the snow. And most of the
: add-ons in that game were an idiotic ploy at
: shock value at best, and idiotic pandering
: at worst. Either way, it's idiotic. Such
: as the Hot Coffee Mod everyone was up in
: arms about -- that was pretty much a good
: example of both instances.
:
: "Hand to hand combat is basically
: impossible; The driving is terrible; and the
: cellphone is so sloppy I can barely use
: it."
:
: The combat is impossible? I have no problem
: bare-hand beating the ever-loving shit out
: of people in that game. It's either on par,
: or better than any of the others. The cell
: phone was difficult to use? Really? That's
: one of the high points of the entire
: experience. I honestly can't conceive how
: you would have a hard time using the cell
: phone -- it's pretty basic... on the
: console.
