I dont know somebody would like GTA better that game has a lame story and makes no sense. this game has a great story of the gangster vito scalleta and if you want free play just load a chapter and you can do what ever the hell you want to do
I think its a shame the gameplay is short. but i had a lot of fun playing extra missions like catarina, leonardo, thieves and like so. what really is weird my multiplayer does not work if anybody has a solution please let me know.
GREAT IDEA BUT CONTROLS FOR MAC DONNOT WORK WELL. THERE IS NO SUPPORT FOR A R CLICK FUNCTION WITH MY MACBOOK PRO SO I AM UNABLE TO MOVE SHIPS AROUND. WASTE OF MONEY!
Thunderous applause to this game! While it was still in the pre-order stage I was very excited for its release. Now that I'm playing it, I'm literally blown away by it.
Superb graphics complements the outstanding detail they placed on every aspect of the game. Hardcore and casual racing game fans alike will surely be overwhelmed with Grid's awesomeness.

I really enjoyed this game-the graphics were cool, the storyline was brilliant, and I liked how the game molded to your choices so some of the outcomes were different. I was almost in tears by the end; it really tugs on your heartstrings! However, after completing Episode 3, when I loaded Episode 4 it said that I was skipping ahead, and would I like the game to generate decisions for me. Whenever I clicked "No" the screen went black and I was stuck, and had to click Command + Q to quit. When I clicked "Yes" it somehow got me to the next episode with all of my previous decisions made! So, I didn't care as long as it took me to the next part and all of the same choices & characters were there.
After I completed the game, I created a New Game so I could replay it a second time, in order to make some different choices. I got past Episode 1... and now cannot play past it and into Episode 2. Everytime I try to load it, a box comes up asking if I want to "rewind" to this point (even though I shouldn't have to rewind anything, seeing as I didn't play Episode 2 yet). The only options are to click Yes or No. I've tried clicking both and all I get is a black screen that will sit there until I finally have to quit the game because it won't do anything. It's a bummer because I can't play anymore. My only other option is to delete all the games and try starting again, but that means I have to play Episode 1 all over again, and I JUST finished it. It's just disappointing because the game is so fun! Researching online, there are tons of other people having this same issue on different computers, through different gaming sites, etc. so there must be a technical issue through Telltale Games. I wish they would give an update or a bug fix, because it's like I paid to rent the game for one time instead of being able to play as much as I want.
Everyone knows AC is a great series, and worth the money. But what about the cons on Mac?
Well, for me, I only ran into one glitch on a regular basis. The classic keyboard glitch.
Sometimes while using a wireless mouse, the game stops taking inputs from your keyboard, so all you can do is use your mouse to exit the game and try to play again.
I found 1 solution that worked most of the time.. and that was to go into my Mac settings and into Keyboard, then change the input from wireless to built-in, then start the game. (this won't affect the function of your wireless mouse, but may help fix the glitch)
Getting around the glitch didn't seem too hard. And afterwards, the game crashed a few times, but only after extended hours of playing. I played the game for roughly 35 hours of game time, and only crashed 4 times.
But I ran into the keyboard glitch about 10-12 times.
All-in-all, totally worth it!
For those of you who are new to Assassin's Creed, like I was...
AC2 is such a beautiful game! (cannot express how pretty this game looks, must see!)
Large open world! Great story!! Change your characters armor and weapons, even pick up and use weapons from enemies!
Very early in the story you are introduced to a city that you acquire and upgrade, for which it inturn provides income for you every 20mins of gameplay..
I found that after acquiring and increasing this steady income, money was never a problem.
Enjoyed all the weapons! From swords, maces, daggers, to the throwing knives, smoke bombs, and poison! And ofcourse, hidden blades. Even hand-to-hand combat is so much fun! The animations never get old, and I kept seeing new animations for different weapons (especially all the different finishing moves). I especially enjoyed using the smoke bomb, poison, and just bare hands.. It's fun to punch-combo, disarm, and finish, all in one smooth aggression.
Also, don't forget all the exploration. Running, Flying, Horseback Riding, even boat rowing. One of may favorite parts of the game was definitely the tomb-raider-like dungeons. Extra fun with the ones that had enemies inside!
Wish they ported AC Liberations, or AC3 for Mac! I'm not picky, even AC IV. ;)
Gear up for the ride of your life with this exhilarating mix of sweet handling, dazzling visuals and blistering speed. GRID puts you behind the wheel of the world’s premiere high-performance race cars and then sets you loose on the world’s most spectacular tracks.
Race your way from the US to Europe and on to Japan in a career mode that sees you advance all the way from rookie to champion. With a shattering damage model, adjustable difficulty settings and a handy “flashback” feature, GRID rides the sweet spot between sim realism and addictive arcade racing.
Its titles speak for themselves, and like the other reviews, this will only be a positive one. Absolutely worth every dime spent, especially if you are playing online. You will spend hours and hours playing this game, and it is even fun after using cheat codes! XP Only con i can point out is the graphics, but thats not a con, considering it was released way back then and it is pretty historically inaccurate, which is not a con either, IDC!
And not only does it crash a lot, but say it crashes while playing level 13-4. Even thought I have saved the game at 13-3, before proceeding to 13-4, after the crash I am back at 13-1. Tacky tacky. Also, the scorekeeping is screwed up in the "practice" mode. It does not keep track of your highest score. Finally, when you move the shooter to the far right corner, it acts like a "hot corner" and pauses the game. So if you can deal with all of these frustrations, go ahead and buy it. Otherwise, nada.
