just a quick question. i got a gc and metroid prime, and i didnt get a memory card, so i wanted to make sure that the first level is just designed to get your familiar with the game right?

Of course it wasn't it! If it was only killing one boss and running out the level it then I would never even think about getting the game and if you look on the back you even see more pictures of different levels! So there's more levels :D

Oh that boss was pretty easy once you get how to do damage to him! The entire planet? Oh my... I got a lot more to do...

I'm giving you a fair warning: lots of elevators to hop on, lots of things to scan and lots of life forms to fry.

Yeah, somehow I forgot that you're supposed to scan everything and I'll probably be at 50% when I beat the game.:( Unless I go back and explore everything over again.

Sounds fun, "a lot of life forms to fry." and good thing I been scanning everything possible (I think) so far :cool:

no no i was thinkin that the game would be on a ship like that and it would be mostly linear and it would be boring, but ive gotten farther in the game and now i know that the game is spectacular:D

well vice city is sweet, but i wish they would at least move the game to another system that can handle it better. the ps2 is starting to show its age in some of the newer games. a little plastic purple cube manhandles it:D

Vice City is ok to me.

PROS
-motorcycles
-new missions
-better weapons

CONS
-less than decent graphics
-same damn game(just in the 80s)
-PS2 can't really handle it

I don't blame rockstar for the less intuitive gameplay. It's basically the same. The reason GTA3 was a hit was because it had drastic changes fron GTA2 mainly the move to 3D graphics.I don't know what they could have done to make it any better. It is still worth a purchase if you ask me.

im not arguing with the fact that its an excellent game, i have it and im playin it right now, but there are a lot of times when the framerates drops really low and if Rockstar would have put in on xbox or gamecube it would have run a lot smoother and they could have improved the graphics more

After seeing that BMX XXX, RE, and all those other non-kiddie games released for the GC. There are no more excuses for them not to release it for the GC, 'cause it's kiddie. It'd be nice to see what they can do with the GC graphics-wise.
