    It's a complete GTA package so yes free roaming is quite fun, you see random events happen like a pursuit or an accident complete with cops barricading the scene. Rampage is so much fun too!

    I've been randomly free-roaming, selling drugs, buying guns, completing jumps etc. for a while now, without doing any missions. I even went touristing and visited the Statue of Happiness on Happiness island.

    This game has potentially unlimited replay value.

    EDIT:
    That's true too, on several occasions I have driven past burnt-out vehicles with the area blocked off by police and paramedics, or police having a shootout with some gang members.

    I saw a helicopter trying to gun me down but can we use them at any point? If we can it will make my life.

    FWIW, I think the graphics are quite impressive.

    ok, i want to sell drugs, how? iv just been doing missions and I also was the ambulance and saved 5 patrons.. i want some quick money.
    this reminds me of the first gta i played.. then i had to stop playing games and get on with life. i think rockstar is aiming for us 30 something guys. lol. i know that would be selfish. i think the graphics are great. rock on.

    So, what's the general consensus? A worthy port of a great game, or spend your money elsewhere?

    It's pretty good, I actually feel like I'm playing a real game instead of some cell phone game which is how I feel about most of the App Store games.

    My only complaint is the personal music station.

    You have to complete a mission from Uncle Kenny where you meet a drug dealer and buy/sell. Then you can freely deal.

    It's marked as a glowing blue circle. How do you set a route on the GPS?

    You click the GPS, then tap the location you want to get to.

    It doesn't work for me. Do you have to complete certain mission first?
