I finished the game the other day. Overall, I'd give it an 8 or a 9. I have some issues with the way the gameplay is kind of black and white when in an interview, but the part of the game that shined was in the intricate and involved storytelling, as well as the way each character felt real (not just visually). My favorite part was definitely the story arch of homicide. My opinion of the game kind of decreases after the start of Vice. I'm not going to give anything away, but there are decisions the main character made which I just didn't like, and it kind of took me out of the mindset of being fully behind Cole as a hero.
