I didn't think the game was perfect by any means. Story can be kind of a mess at times and Aiden's character "development" sucked. I didn't have any issues with the driving. I guess it was less arcadey than GTA, but I found some cars that I liked and got used to driving them pretty quickly. I liked the stealth/cover/shooting mechanics a lot, though. The open world had plenty to do as well, although not all of it felt that compelling. If WD2 can address the issues with storytelling, characters, and making the open world feel more "necessary", it could be a bonafide hit for me...and since WD has sold-in 8 million units, WD2 is a certainty at this point.
