a dune buggy with lights and silly alien weapons sounds instead of a horn.  [/spoiler]

after finishing it, 9/10

[spoiler=tl;dr spoils]

i'm a little frustrated with how necessary it is to meticulously follow a guide in order to really rake in the big bux

i screwed up the assassination missions early on because i assumed they were part of the story and did them consecutively before realizing i could have saved them for much later (i was able to save just one until the end of the game)

or maybe i'm just retarded and everyone knew that

also, i feel the main story is a little short

and boy is it anticlimactic

the game deliberately builds this massive amount of tension between the main characters that one would reasonably expect to explode fantastically at the climax

yet the end comes and goes, and all that tension just deflates like a sad balloon

they simply kiss and make up and part ways

there is no final grand heist, no epic chase, just a standard set of basic assassination missions like we've done a hundred times before

even gta iv had a more satisfying ending [/spoiler]

[spoiler]

perhaps the game's climax was supposed to be """the big one""", but if so, it occurs way too early in the story for it to actually feel like a climax at all, too much occurs in the aftermath of that heist[/spoiler]

[spoiler]

of course, i did pick the most neutral ending, and i haven't viewed the others which might or might be more spectacular (though i doubt it)[/spoiler]

speaking about the climax thing, i think we're too used to games climaxing far too late compared to other forms of media.  i think the big one was a good climax, and this was a decent attempt at having post-climax story lol

also, it's absolutely retarded that it takes literally about two in-game years to make a return on any property investment [/spoiler]
