 R u kidding me???????? June 9, 2008

This game isn't it right? I keep waiting for the 2nd CD to arrive. Comparatively speaking? It doesn't even come close to San Andreas!! Rock Star definitely went backwards creating this boring and boring attempt at New York and the Grand Theft Auto series.
GTA at its best June 9, 2008

If previous GTA titles have disappointed you GTAIV will be a turn for the best. Rockstar has combined good graphics with a great story line and even better gameplay. It seems they have read my brain, considered everything I didn't like about San Andreas and Vice City and greatly improved all of them. First of all, graphics are way better. Now, they are not incredible graphics but they are a great leap forward from the monotonous shapes and colors of previous games. Given I had to change brightness settings on my screen, Rockstar finally was able to make it realistic.
Second, the story line is excellent. IN previous GTA'a I was very dissatisfied with every main character being a Tony Montana in the works. In contrast, Nico Bellick seems like an average person just trying to get through by killing, stealing and doing everyother type 1 crime possible.
Third, and most importantly, this game has one of the best gameplay I've had. Remember all those stupid semi-missions you had to do in San Andreas like going to the gym to "get in shape"? GONE. Remember those endless amounts of missions? GONE. Remember that incredibly-big-takes-you-20-minutes-to-travel area map? GONE. Remember that frantic running when you pressed the x button? GONE. In place of all those innecesary and anoying problems, the game now has more interesting storyline, user frienlier controls (yes, its possible), and a whole bunch of stuff that you will be surprise to discover.
After all this babbling I have to say that I was a little skeptical about buying GTAIV since I was so dissapointed by previous titles. Now I am very satisfied with the product and glad I didn't pass on it as I first thought.
PS. Not enough time to talk about excellent online play, have to get back to 16 person deathmatch in times square.
 ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT GAME !!! June 8, 2008

Let me start off by saying that at first i was quite reluctant to buy GTA4 after playing the previous games but something kept telling me to just give this a try and boy was my gut feeling right.It is by far the most fun i have ever had playing a game.Sure...just like any game it does have a few flaws but nothing worth missing out on this for.The graphics could have been better but still a gigantic leap forward from the previous GTA games and the load times can get a dash bit annoying but other than that i honestly can't think of anything else negative about this game.The sound is fantastic,the game play is top notch,plot is superb,voice acting is excellent,the intensity of the missions never seem to disappoint even if you have to keep trying again and again to get it right,the driving of all vehicles feel splendid and finally the living breathing enviornements are truly something for all gaming fans to experience as it is simply one of a kind.I bow down to ROCKSTER games for a phenemonal effort in this series.Keep it up guys.I salute you.

I thought halo 3 was over hyped but gta 4 redefines the concept. There is no way this game deserves the landslide of perfect scores it has recieved, and the only reasonable conclusion is that the reviewers were paid off. The gameplay is the same as ever and it gets very repetitive and dull. drive to point a. shoot some dude. drive to point b. repeat ad nauseum. The story is a complete joke where they throw in every gangster cliche and rascist sterteotype in the book. Includes numerous lame, banal attempts at satire. Nico Bellic has the personality of a cardboard box, save yourself the trouble and watch scarface instead. And the graphics are seriously sub-par. The characters are super blocky and look like something from the original xbox or ps2, textures are bland, and overall its pretty unimpressive. Unless you have a thing for the demoiselles d'avignon you are not going to find the strippers here attractive. dont be fooled by the press. save your cash.

Weirdest GTA ever, you can get really lost in Liberty City. Largest universe ever, you can run or drive, work and so on., It's not old cheat&laugh GTA, it's what I can call Action Dramma.
