This just has to be one of the most overrated video games ever. The missions are ridiculously uneven and all over the place when it comes to their concept, difficulty level, and intensity.
And on top of that, the checkpoint system makes no sense - like in A Trip to the Country, where you have to walk through the whole farm twice before the actual action even starts.
Also, if the fact that you often have to drive at 60 kph (or 40 mph) in order not to attract cops wasn't enough, one segment is literally a public transport passenger simulator. Who though it was a good idea?
I get it, the story is good, the overall concept is pretty impressive, and the cutscenes have great cinematography. But with level design this uneven, the whole game is average at best.
Aged like milk, 80% of it is tedious driving through a city designed to be as frustrating as possible to traverse, the other 20% is cutscenes for a decent story and mediocre gameplay.
