Play Mercenaries2 instead. It's Grand Theft Auto with airstrikes. Calling in a daisy cutter bomb drop on a village full of brown people is the definition of fun.

I'll definitely take a closer look at mercenaries 2, thanks.
Yes I too got bored with GTA-VC when I first got it and tried playing it. I guess I had too many other games calling me away and, well, my driving sucked and it took forever to get anywhere. So I shelved it for a few years.
But lately since I've gotten bored with all the other games I've played to death (Halo, Max Payne, Oblivion, etc) I decided to give it another shot, and I'm glad I did. It's actually quite interesting, and I've found that once you get the hang of driving fast through traffic you can get anywhere in the city pretty fast. Grab the helicopter and it's even faster.
But no matter how you slice it vice city isn't for anyone who is in a rush. Lots of missions and lots to do even when not doing missions. Why just today while playing I accidently ran over a cop, another one saw me do it and the chase was on. I eventually ended up having probably 20 cop cars after me, a 5 star wanted rating, and at one fast corner it seem about 10 of them piled into my getaway car. I jumped out, unloaded my rocket launcher on them and vaporized the lot of them.
Then I stole someone else's car, got to a pay 'n spray, sat back in my chair and gave all those cops who were chasing me the doubled finger salute.
What a rush.
