The game is simply a lot of fun! (Installation, copy protection, social club, Windows Live! Is interested to sign anything NEN dirt. And there you go! I do not understand why so many here can only because of its leaving a bad review for the actual game !! :()
the hardware requirements are naturally very high. although I do not - by today's standards - have high-end computer, running the whole quite fluently. jerky a very little, but that does not bother me. My hardware: AMD X2 6400+ Dual Core, 2 MB RAM, NVidia 8800 GTX, WinXP SP3.
As for the graphics: the hammer !! although I can not play at the highest level of detail. compared to GTA San Andreas acts as the latter on an old console. because the makers have really made an effort and created a very lovingly detailed game environment in which you can move freely. whether you follow the missions or simply a round without specific goal is to baller course and his wanted level increases and invests with the police, it just makes a lot of fun! whether you're on foot or in the car, the control on the PC with a mouse and keyboard is simply divine. I can not imagine the game via pad to play! In addition to the transportation by car (it is possible to any car to crack and to drive it), there is still locomotion by boat or even helicopter. the crash on the car model is unique and not previously been in the form there, you can see almost every little scratch, every delle until the truck starts to smoke afterwards and finally do burst into flames and explodes impressive. everything here is nearby is very realistic affected.
the arming is also not without. There are pistols, rifles, sniper rifles-, baseball bat, grenades, shotguns and bazookas. these weapons you can acquire throughout the game and buy more repeatedly in arms stores. I have to admit that. by this freedom of movement and the unrestricted use of force, the Sogn gameplay but can be quite questionable. because you can simply any person most brutal kill or at least beat up by car on or run over, which is not stingy with blood. all seems very realistic, if for example, by rotating the tires after such an action by car and leave while a red track. whether such a representation of violence is necessary, however, depends in the end by the player himself, what he wants to do from the game.
Conclusion: full marks from me, buy recommendation!
