I'm on about 15% so far and its getting better by the moment !

Been listening to the sounds of Bobby Brown - Don't Be Cruel

The swearing is a little OTT, but it adds to the authenticity & gangsta feel of the game.

Is the music mostly rapping and stuff? Not really a fan of that 'type' of music

For me, one of the best bits about vice city was the sound track. Absolutly superb

I got my email from play.com tuesday night saying it had been dispatched. Hasnt turned up yet

Rap music does feature quite heavily as the game is gangsta based. Reminds me of playing an interactive version of the old 'Boyz in the hood' film..

However there are several other radio stations if rap doesn't take your fancy.. although there is something rather cool about doing a drive by shooting with NWA booming out of the stereo...

Really wish I had pulled a sicky today, I was getting far to involved at 1'oclock this morning then realised I had work today...

He heh, just been over to Currys a bought a copy. THEY ASKED FOR I.D. !?! I'M 31 IN FOUR MONTHS TIME FOR GODS SAKE.

Anyway, we laughed and he said he was just getting into the habit of asking for ID as one of there stores is being done for selling an 18+ game to a 12 year old. I said it was good that he was asking and most places dont give a monkeys. We had a good chat about GTA in general and I was very impressed with the guys customer service which is very rare to find in this day and age. Roll on 5.30pm

TELL me about it ! I was gonna wait until the Xbox release, but I'm hearing nothing but good about it - so it was an essential lunchtime purchase

Nowadays I'm into modern rock etc, but during my teens ('back in the day' )it was Hip-Hop\Rap all the way, and the play list for Radio Los Santos looks SOOOO cool.

2 Pac, Dre, Cube, D.O.C., Eazy E - I can't wait muthafu...........

Played GTA3 and thought it was pants.

...and as for The Getaway - what a pile of garbage, completely over-hyped with a control system worse than Tomb Raider Angel of Darkness which I didn't think was possible.

Roll On R&C3 & Killzone
