I haven’t played much lately since I’ve mainly been reinstalling stuff after upgrading my hardware and installing Windows 7. But, with plenty of free disk space now, I put GTA4 back on and played through the first handful of missions.

I’m not sure I like the melee combat system, though. Moving around is so slow and blocks and disarms are hard to pull off. This mission where I had to rescue my cousin and then chase down a loan shark took me a good four tries before I beat it, mainly thanks to trouble with the melee.

But at least the performance is pretty good now.
