The music is also disappointing, partly because the song list is so…so…I don't know, full of stuff I don't know or don't care about. But it's mostly disappointing for how it's clogged with so much of Rockstar's funny radio station stuff. Which, granted, is indeed funny, but Rockstar seems not to know what it's like to drive these days. Who doesn't drive listening to his own music instead of a radio station? Saints Row got it right. I'm actually astonished – yes, astonished! – that Grand Theft Auto IV doesn't have a built in media player to let me listen to my own music through the Xbox 360. Last night, before I got the game, I specifically sat down and made a Cruise playlist and a Chase playlist, expecting to be able to use them in GTA4.
