Grand Theft Auto IV Spoilers

[Sage]

I doubt it, Akane. GTA was built on the fundemental idea that you can at almost any point ignore the storyline for a month if you feel like it and go around making shit up. I once went on a rampage through Area 69 in a golf kart, before driving it up to a tank, climbing on top of it, and opening fire on the encroaching soldiers with the anti-tank gun thing for a while, before stealing the tank and driving it (and whatever vehicles I needed to commandeer on the way) all the way back to CJ's house in downtown Los Santos, just because I could.

If they took the random idiocy like that out, I think the game would lose a ton of it's appeal.
