Hanging out with Roman was totally optional past a few missions, but if that's what you found the most exhilarating, great. Whatever floats your boat.

I loved GTA IV on the PC. It's probably my favorite PC gaming experience next to what TF2 originally was. The city is just so well done, and I found the story so compelling that I would just do mission after mission and never much of anything else. It's actually something I hope they do improve upon for GTAV. When I wasn't doing missions I didn't see anything else worth doing aside from screwing around, social activities, and just driving around to marvel at the city. The gunplay also got pretty stale towards the end.

If they took a few notes from Saint's Row (which I'm sure they will) and beefed up the customization, added more non-mission activities, this game would be something of my dreams. I'm a sucker for Rockstar's storytelling and game design.
