GTA: Advance - anyone played it?

[mid]

With the giant thread in First Play for San Andreas, I'd have thought at least a few people might have tried the new GBA one as well, but no sign at all of it.

I'm considering getting it, but after remembering how fundamentally broken the old GBC one was, I'm really cautious. Mainly, they didn't put anyway near enough traffic in (making getting around a pain), and didn't do the zoom-out that the 'proper' PS and PC ones did, so anything faster than walking rapidly ended up with your piling into things anyway.

So, anyone care to suggest it either way?

I've only heard praise for it, to be honest - but haven't played it myself. Did tempt me to drag out the PSOne and fire up the original GTA for a bit of retro goodness, mind...

I gave it a quick play. It was really very jerky, and slow. First impressions weren't good.

I never gave it a chance, perhaps if you persevere it's OK.

I've played plenty of hours on it. It's good, I'll start a first play now....
