I prefer playing as Niko. Maybe I'm just sentimental.
Also, I find controlling the movement in this game slightly sluggish. And the AI dumber. Can walk right up to them and shoot without taking any hit. Maybe it'll improve in later missions. I'm only at the early stages.
@ pj - strange .... my intro scene no audio. after that, ok. nvm la. lol. actually, more addicted to Fable 2 now than this L&D.

Compare to Johny Boy, Niko is much more lovable character. At times you get to see Niko in L&D (even the intro you can see him walking pass the street) which is pretty funny especially in some of the mission you see Niko from Johny's perspective.

GTA IV no need gold can play multiplayer as well??
finally got the chance to download the game last night after 2am... where the internet speed would be blazing for me. I downloaded the 1.75Gb download in about 2 hours... will play it today, I hope, if I'm not too busy...
Like everyone else here, I'm been lovin TLAD~! Just started a couple of missions so far and it feels good to be back in Liberty City. I think Johnny's voice is not distinctive enough from the other bikers so sometimes I find it hard to figure out who's talking when in formation. I guess I will get used to it the more I play. But Billy so far has been an interesting prick of a character
OH MAN... I was playing IT just now and this mission call politics. At the end of the cut scene this guys showing totally naked and not even underwear....The best part is, the inside LCD are link to out side LCD display too for demo propose. GREAT...I JUST SHOWING DI*k TO PUBLIC...
For 1600 points, you get a game that provides 8 to 10 hours of gameplay entertainment - provided if you complete all the races, hijacking, gang wars, friends quest and side quest. The main quest line itself is about 15 ~ 20 missions long and the pacing could have been better because just when it got good, the game gets done with. However, featuring new comic stand ups (Frankie Boyle), TV shows, radio segments, music, weapons, vehicles and areas - the total package is still undeniably good. Storywise, it ties in very well with the main storyline, giving you an insight of some of the more colorful characters not previously explored or explained from Nico Bellic point of view. Controls feel tighter and riding a bike feels much better compared to the original game due to the fact that your butt is almost always glued to the bike unless the most severe of collisions occur. All in all, a worthy purchase.
Pros: 1. Improved controls 2. More in-game environment content such as music, radio shows, tv show etc.
Cons: 1. Mission pacing could have been better, it's over just when things get interesting resulting the feeling of the game being too short.
