As I stated above GTA IV has made it into my top 10 games of all time.

Let me begin by first saying I've never once played any of the GTA games before and didn't have any desire to. What got me to buy the game was me trading in to bad games in Lost Planet and Enchanted Arms. I decided to take a chance on GTA IV, and I am glad I did.

Let me go over all the reasons why I loved this game. First is the story which truly surprised me. It's captivating, drawing you in with the great story of a immigrant coming to America looking for revenge. The characters were great and truly life like. Also I liked how I as a player could control many of the small and one or two big decisions of the game. The second thing was the game play which took a little getting used to but was amazing. The third thing was all the extral things you could do. From just going around blowing things up and trying to get away from the cops to trying to do all the stunts in the game.

I only have to small problems with the game. First and the biggest was the saving. Once a mission started you couldn't save. So if it's a really long mission and you just about completed it and you die you have to start from the beginning which pissed me off a couple of times. The second was the slow load times, but like I said these are small problems.

GTA IV is a classic game in my book, one of the best I've played.

I have to say that this Grand Theft Auto is a giant step up from San Andreas. This game has an awesome storyline and it is amazingly addicting. I love it! Five Stars from me. ^_^

this game in the newest installment in the grand GTA series. there is not much to say about GTA IV. its your typical GTA game. there are some new things though. they introduced a cover system. its not the best but i can save your live during a firefight. the multiplayer is fun to play. there are many types to choose from. currently there is only one DLC for this game its called The Lost And Damned. this is a brand new story and is wroth the price of 1600 Microsoft points. there are also some new multiplayer types with it. in October 2009 the is a new DLC coming out. it is called The Ballad of Gay Tony. no price has been officially announced, but its probably going to be the same price as The Lost And Damned, considering that it is also a new story.

GTA 4 is an average game with some great visuals but if you love the GTA franchise you will for sure have more fun with the other games it might be fun for some lonely men. I think the game has way to much sex and not enough of most of everything else.
