I can have plenty of fun in a game, but it's a great bonus if I actually give a rat's ass about the characters involved.

The "storyline" is like 8 hours of a game that you can play for 5 times that, its not just that they are unlikeable or whatever its that they arent relevant to the game at all. All the "plot" serves is a way to put you in ridiculous situations like riding a nuclear missile or assaulting a giant mountain fortress with a door like Mt Rushmore fashioned after Panau's ruler or escaping a military base and having a nuclear submarine surface through the ice lake you are driving across.

Point is, as a sandbox game it is the best I have played. I should put this in perspective: my second favourite sandbox is GTA:SA and I didnt like GTA:IV at all because it discarded all the fun of SA.

That's all well and fine, but it still doesn't change the fact that nothing you do is really of any consequence, and that I don't actually care about what's going on in the game world.
