Quick thought about time

So imagine this: You're in GTA 4, you just got finished with the opening level and your pumped about being unleashed into Liberty City and going completely mental. Suddenly your cousin comes up to you and tells you "Cousine ! In 72 hours we must go look at tities ! meet me at apartment or game over !" This is what GTA would be like if it incorporated Dead Rising 2's time system.
Now don't get me wrong Dead Rising is an awesome franchise (except on Wii) but has one inherent flaw: the time. The game is an open world game with a damn time limit. Part of the fun is killing zombies but instead you have to always keep in mind that in 13 real minutes, you'll have to be doing such thing or its back to the beginning for you. Stop for two minutes and think: does it give the game a sense of real urgency ? Nope. It just pisses people off.
