The radio station "Generation X" has My Chemical Romance and Panic At the Disco and Paramore and other such shit.  And why, other than a minimal comic value, is there an "easy listening" station?

Aside from that, I played it for around 6 hours yesterday.  It's almost ridiculously fun, the physics and driving engines are complete jokes (every car handles PERFECTLY).  At one point I jumped into some water so I could swim to the other side of a ravine type thing, and as soon as I hit the water my character FLEW about fifty feet in the air and slowly landed quite some distance away without taking any damage.  Still trying to figure out how to replicate that.

The story and voice acting so far aren't nearly as bad as I thought they could be.  All the side activities are great.  With some more polish, it could have been better than GTA4 in every way.  As it stands, it's better in a few crucial ways and I hope this spurs Rockstar to make the next GTA game just as jam-packed with customization.  It seems like a little thing, but picking your character's gender and voice/attitude and then having that used in the cutscenes is really cool.

Worth a rental but at the rate I play games (I still haven't finished GTA4) I'd say buy it.

Melodic:
Generation X is voiced by a white rasta. I dub this the quintessential "modern mainstream" radio station.

RedLion:
Easy listening radio stations are the best in these urban sandbox games! The Jazz station is what I always listen to in GTA4. Plus there's something sublime about causing mass havoc while classical music plays in the background.

Ah, the days of causing havoc in the original using petrol tankers and grenade launchers, with Wagner playing on the in-game 'MP3 Player'.

Cliché, but oh so satisfying.

Need to get the new one...
