The best game in the world™ hits at midnight tomorrow night, and I’m sitting here avoiding reviews, playing other (similar) games, and trying to determine just how much I want to know about the game before I play it for myself. I think I’ve settled on looking at screenshots and watching the non-gameplay videos straight from Rockstar.
I am actually nervous about playing this game, which is a weird thing to say. But I have been waiting for it since summer of 2006, when it was announced for the 360. It’s the reason I bought one, and so there’s a tiny bit of apprehension that it won’t live up to the expectations that I have for it.
Metacritic begs to differ, as the game is currently boasting a perfect score on both platforms. It doesn’t really matter, but it’s certainly reassuring.
