I just started playing this the other day, and I'm noticing one of the biggest complaints that gamers have about it; there is no illusion of control. Essentially you play out the story with very little free range capability, and there's little to do that deviates from the main storyline. Whereas in previous Rockstar Games, there would be between 3-4 threads of interconnected missions happening at once, in this case there's very little opportunity to explore, or do anything outside of the storyline.
South Park seems to sum up gamer frustration with the game pretty well (Not Work Safe):

All in all, it's a decent game, but fans of Rockstar's other games are going to be disappointed.

To be exact Heim, the game was made by Team Bondi and not by Rockstar (only published). Hence the no oppertunity of so-called "sidemissions".
Little free range capability? - not at all. Lots of collectibles + you can do "streetcrimes", which function a bit as sidemission.
Personally, I think most people shouldn't complain and bring their game back then. Haven't seen one of those yet, who shred tears of feeling uncomfortable bout this game.
Personally, it's one of my favorites to be particularely bout it. It has some repetitive gameplay, ok, but there was this one case, with all kinds of riddles to get to certain locations that I really enjoyed ^_^
