      Oh definitely! And thankfully there's a free mode too, one that seems as though it could actually cover the entire city. Awesome.

    I wonder how in game communication will be dealt with, seeing as there'll be so many players over such a large area. Hopefully the PlayStation 3 release will support voice too.

      It'd be cool if you could just chat with people near you and then you had to give people a ring with a mobile phone if they're far away.

    Oh I do hope some of the missions are co-op able. I'd love to roll around with my boys.

    Wow, brilliant! Deathmatches will be so fun!
    It would be cool to explore the city as a team, too. =)

    I'll be doing the Cops VS Robbers type one >_>

    Yeah, nobody seems to know what the 15th unrevealed mode is >_>

    I'd like to get a team together, and have us massacre a huge number of citizens/cops...Just take over say....That "Happiness Island" (where the Statue of Happiness is)...We demand independence from the USA!

    These sound really great. I just hope they have pulled them off well but it at least gives me one more reason to get this.

    I wonder if there will be leaderboards
