Definitely. It's in my top 4 PS3 games. MGS4, NHL 09, CoD4, and GTA IV. In no specific order.

Sure, go ahead. It doesn't cost as much now anyways, so why not?

If u have online multiplayer it is great. The storyline itself is a bit boring.

Definately, considering how cheap it is nowadays. You can get for $39 at most places and even less if you search around a bit.

The online setup is horrible in GTA4, but it's still a great game. I'm thinking you should buy Saint's Row 2 instead though, it's more fun.

i enjoyed the game. money is pointless in it though. there isn't that much to do after you beat it. saints row 2 does have more options. i think i'd go with that

I didn`t like it, but I guess it`s worth checking out. Just don`t expect much.

I didn't like it at all, and no one plays online anymore. If you're expecting a normal shooter, then you're wrong. It plays quite... differently.

If you want it, buy it. If you don't want it, don't buy it. Nobody here can shape your personal expectations for the game, so make your own choice. That's the only real freedom you have, anyway.

avoid it, IMO san andreas and vice city are better than it, so if you didnt like them...chances are you wont like this. Saints Row might be better for you.

While some dislike GTAIV and prefer the Saints Row series, I have to say that GTAIV is the better game overall.

It's worth picking up. The mission design is the best of any open world game. The enemy A.I doesn't spawn right in front of you like in Saints Row, and the physics, animation, vehicle damage, vehicle handling, and many other things are handled better in GTAIV than the Saints Row series. Even for 60$ it's still worth a purchase.

Nice three-year-old thread bump. Even worse, it's bumped with a sh*ty opinion.
