First of all, the graphics: the complexive view is stunning, very realistic lights and the felling that people are real (both Franklin and Michael, pedestrians and secondary characters), also for the naturness of their movements.
The city is extremely variegated (not a single road or pont the made me say: this seems that other one..) and it's full of cars (much more than in gta4). Maybe less peds, but the numer is fine for me.
Cars handling: I was sure that all those people sh*tting on this aspect were idiots. They managed to combine the feeling of realism (that in some aspects we also had in gta4) with FUN (totaly absent in the previous game). Turning at high speed is easier now, that's true, but I think it makes the drive faster and with much more adrenaline. Apart from this, every veicle has his own phisics, you can clearly feel it. A SUV or a pickup are slower on a flat streets but great to go up on the hills of the upper part of the city, while a sport cars are very fast and easier to drive but not very good to go up. Bad, old and ruined cars (it's full of them in the poor district) are both slow and hard to drive during turns.
It's hard to describe, but trust me, it gives many satisfaction
About the activities, i think they will be unlocked while we go on with the story. For example you can use Chop only after a few hours of game, same thing for many other activities like car stealing, tennis etc.
So who knows, i read somewhere that someone found a casino but you could play any game...maybe the locked until you will get a good amount of money
