    So far, yes.

    And I haven't tried shooting anyone inside a car, but I got have been shot several times -- one, for trying to car jack someone else's car, and another time when police were chasing me and were firing into the back of my car.

    I got the game early by downloading it, but I just did that to get it quicker than waiting for it from Gamefly. I'll definitely be purchasing this one.

    The soundtrack is crap??? I thought that would be the best thing in this game. I was expecting a ton of early 90's rap like NWA, Public Enemy and Ice-T. Is any of that in there? An AFI cover of Head Like A Hole? That's gotta be a fucking joke. Please tell me it is.

    Yeah, If there was an XboX version in the works i'd hold off just so i could import VC tracks or blast some zeppelin...
    Sadly i'll just have to play one station over and over or just turn the music off IF i buy it.

    different strokes for different folks. I hate rap. therefore, the soundtrack, aside from the one promised classic rock station, is going to be one hundred percent GARBAGE to me. Christ, i'll probably turn on the country and western station just for a break from the rap.

    Seems kinda buggy and it's daytime in cali but everyone is so dark you can't tell whats going on sometimes. I was driving and the first car I stole went into a camera angle below the road :P

    So far the dialog is hit/miss, it's like some white guys wrote the script for a gang movie.

    It's time for a new 3D engine on this series. Music is hit or miss.. Vice City I remember almost all the tunes, I'm not up on rap but it seems like this is a mix of real and fake stuff.

    Hell yeah the new GTA and Dawn of the Dead: Unrated both on my f'ing birthday! The soundtrack samples to GTA:SA seem awsome Slick Rick and Rage Against the Machine, come on now great shit. With the sniper you can shoot and decap anyone in their vehicle through the window in Vice City. Anyone know if an Xbox version is coming? I know it will but how long? I'd hate to buy the PS2 and have the Xbox come out Q1 '05 and buy that too. I'm really pessimistic about getting Xbox versions of multi-console realeses. I'm want the best (IMHO) version of a game. PS2 < Game Cube < Xbox!

    I don't care for the actual game part of thesegames, I just like being able to run around and do just about anything. VC is the only one I can play because I love the music. I LOVE the music in Vice City. I love 80's music. I HATE current music and most Rap. THIS version I will not even touch until it comes to the Xbox. Unfortunately, my brither is the one who plays these games to the end, so unless I can talk him into waiting, he'll probably end up getting the PS2 version. So I'll have to talk him into waiting based solely on the custom tracks option that would most likely be included in an Xbox version. I'd load it with my favorite 80's tunes or hell, Katamari Damacy soundtrack. (How's that for a contrast.)

    I like being able to do anything. But not if I can't stand the theme of the game. If it took place in the 80's, yeah, I'd like it a little more. But as it is now, meh.

    This is exactly why minors should not be anywhere near this game. GTA:SA seems to be the most brutal of any of the GTA games. Maybe I'm just more sensitive to it now that I've got a kid and all, but the violence in this one is borderline for me.

    This game is definitely tailered toward the gangster, rap, and gang communities. If you want to know what every rapper is going to be playing on next year's season of Cribs, I'm sure this is it.

    ugh, yuck. Flip-flopping about buying this Ghetto Theft Auto...

    But yeah like Jasoco, I love the 80's and th emusic which is one the reasons I can go back to playing Vicy City so often and really not be bored.

    That's good news for me as i listen mostly to all rap anyways. I'll probably have to buy this tommorw as it seems like it could turn out to be a very cool game.

    Hey, if you can't stand the music, just play your own.

    I do plan to get the game but I'll wait to see if they announce a XBox version.

    Are people seriously considering avoiding this game because a significant amount of its OPTIONAL and VAST music selection is of a genre they don't enjoy?

    Is music the new graphics? Is that what people are concerned with now?
