GTA stopped being GTA a long time ago. Then it stopped being what it became a long time ago too. I don't know what it is now.

Incidentally, "driving to where you get to do things"? Were you really that unimaginative that you didn't have a smurfing blast with the countryside and ignored it completely? For shame. It wouldn't surprise me to learn I spent more time out of cities than in them on SA. It was a nice change of pace but still smurfing awesome.
