I've had lots of problems where it won't connect or where you try to join matchmaking and it kicks you out.

I completed the story a few days back, and then decided to put the game to one side to avoid the 100% temptation. I'd feel sick if I spent the time needed to 100% it in the limited competition time frame.
Plus as others have said, the game can be completed at my own leisure over the space of a few months.

Just finished my second cunning stunts video on second island
Grand Theft Auto IV Cunning Stunts part 2. All 15 stunts on second island taken again on 360 at 1080p and downsampled to 720p 2channel (from 5.1) Last stunt I left…
Shows how much I enjoy this. Went on tonight but nobody was about so decided to do my own scenic video driving and flying about (adding that tonight), just adore this game way tooooooooo much
Edit now up

once down on the subway tracks, the other guy ran off leaving me and Packie behind. Packie then didn't move until I'd run off and got the other bloke to follow me back to him (even a shot in the leg didn't persuade him). By this time, unknown to me, more cops had entered the subway and hit me full in the face with a shotgun when I turned a corner
. 2nd attempt went much smoother!

One thing I've been meaning to ask, because I'm enjoying playing through the various contacts/story missions at the moment and I'm not messing about too much - when you complete the main story, does the game 'end', or can you still mess about within the game environment (Pigeons, random missions etc...)?

I completed the main story over the weekend. Best. Game. Ever. Well, not really, but it does feel like there is a big empty void to fill in my life now. I'll still go back to the game and finish off some of the side missions, but I'm not really arsed about the multiplayer or doing the 100% thing. It was the characters and the story that kept me hooked. Now that's over the game feels more or less done with.
I thought the Three Leaf Clover mission was hard, but it was a walk in the park compared to the final mission. END SPOILERS
I ended up playing through two different endings on different saves because the first one upset me so much, only to find that the other one is even WORSE. I never had much of a problem with the 'revenge' option, but I sure did in the alternative mission where you have to pursue Dimitri by boat. The bit when you had to get picked up by Little Jacob in a chopper was a complete bastard. Took me ages to do it. Made worse by the fact that you knew if you failed you'd have to do it all over again.
I'm tempted to say that they should have put in check points for the longer missions, but the lack of check points does give you a real fear of failing and a huge sense of satisfaction when you finally nail it.

I agree more and more with what was said in the Edge thread a couple of weeks back - control is everything in a game. Good control mechanics mean that when something goes wrong and it's your fault, you can accept it, and when you nail it next time you get that satisfaction. You also get that 'fear of failing', but importantly you know it's your own skill that will make or break your task.
But when the controls let you down, you just feel cheated. This has happened a couple of times on GTA IV to me. On the whole, it's been superb, but the controls are still prone to skanking you.
