So far I love it! Its got a lot of nice details added like being able to restart your wrecked car, lamp posts snapping and rag doll on hit pedestrians.
I was at first dubious of the more realistic car handling as its a bit harder to control them, and the city is less open, but I think thats just something you get used to.
Main thing I love it the black humour is back, and a set of decent characters again! (The San Andreas cast was a bit weak to me)
