Rented GTA: San Andreas to see if Rockstar had fixed its pacing problems, as one of my friends suggested they had.

Summary: Er, no.

The very first mission has your friend going "Follow my lead!" and then zipping away on his bike. Which is, unlike target vehicles in Vice City, not on the radar. Then you get gunned down and run over and sent to a hospital that's a five-minute drive away from the mission's restart point. I retried it three times, more because I wanted to feel I was getting my $4.50 + tax worth out of the dumb thing than because I was having fun. (I didn't, and I wasn't.)

This game fails utterly; they managed to take everything I didn't like about the previous game in the series and put it right up front. Impressive!
