My experience
I played this game simply because I'm a huge fan of the franchise, but this one was complicated in the worst possible way, it drained my soul and sent me through moments of rage that itch to remember. For some reason, he still has a place in my memory, maybe it's my taste for challenges or just masked masochism. Simple missions, few are really interesting. Shallow characters. Non-existent history. Phantom protagonist. Outdated controls. Easy and repetitive side quests. A remake? It would be difficult work and imagining the Rockstar of today, impossible.
