.. surprisingly I havent seen a thread like this before.

For the most part, most people on these forums have been pretty underwhelmed with the game, so just curious what you thought it shouldve gotten.

I think its a 9.5. No game this gen (other than footy games, but thats because im a fanatic) give me anywhere near as much replay value, much less a single player game (havent really tried multiplayer). Its not perfect tho, and has its fair share of minor faults which R* could improve upon. I wouldve liked to have seen more diverse landscapes for one,, much like GTASA

9.0 - but then I'm realy critical with my scores. I can't think of one game I'd give higher than 9.0, and GTAIV is the only one I'd give that high.

9.5, and I'm very lenant with my scores. The crap save system and missions system (fail at the end and you have to start all over again) is enough to keep any game from 10. However, its a very good game:), just not 10 material...

8.5 Here. The game progressed in the exact same way I expected it to and the gameplay is just getting old at this point.

9.5

IMO the floaty cars physics are enough to drop the score down just slightly...it wouldn't be that big of a deal but since driving is such an integral part of the gameplay it really hinders the exp for me.

4 stars out of 5 (I hate /10 scales). It was good, but too many issues to warrant a 5/5 (check my blog for details).

I agree, I love the 1-5 scale, it's alot more to-the-point than the 1-10 scale. 1=sucks 2=bad 3=average 4=good 5=amazing. Its a simple as that.

It's a great sequel, but not 10 worthy...
I guess the review sites didn't want the Rockstar mafia to come and threaten them LOL

9.5 at most (like it originally recieved). Other games get blasted for bugs and freezing, plus having simliar gameplay than a predecessor, yet somehow this game was exempt.

Imo, the 10 is justified, but I wish it would've received a 9.0-9.5 just to close traps.

10. For 40 hours it was an amazing experience, and as soon as I let my heels cool from it for a while, I will be finishing up the optional side quests. Liberty City is one hell of an amazing place, and I am awed by what Rockstar was able to squeeze out of our consoles.

From what I have played so far, I would rate it with a 9.0. It's been great.

9/10, there were a couple things that made me mad, for example the cover system was kind of messed up, aiming was annoying at times and the auto ai was annoying too, it could be turned off but It helped a lot with killing enemies! There were also some other issues that didnt make it perfect but it was still a great game/

9.5 at best gamespot wise, it was any other review site id go for a 9.6-9.7-9.8 type rating.

What I didn't like was the driving, losing missions and have to start all over again, save system, too many damn cops, squished in city, always have to crash when driving.

8.5-9.5 for me... any one else thought the missions were too simplistic? i remember on VC+SA most missions were harder....or i was dumber. One thing stood out though and that was a lack of variety, 5hours in i just took a cab for every mission that required run from point A-B just to kill one guy...

9.5

definately not a prime. the missions are extremely repetitive, the entire time you're driving it's like youre on ice, and the online is boring.(the maps are huge when there's only 8 people... something needs to be done about it.)

8.5 is the score I gave it. Great means....great. It wasn't superb or perfect imo. I can see why some would say it's "superb" if it was ones first GTA game. To me it was just more of the same but with less to do and not as good as previous games in the series.

at first glance I would have given it 10- but after the hypes faded & ive been distracted by other things looking back id say 9.5 the game doesnt quite deserve a 10. its an astounding game in many respects but it lacks some of the bells & whistles that i expected. the game needs more content which i hope the DLC (when it arrives) will deliver. ie more customizations, planes, shops to rob more missons etc

I am having fun with GTA IV, but this game is WAY over-hyped and WAY over-rated. A 9.0 seems fine.

Most of the reviewers, like scared little idiots, even said things like: "This game is by no means perfect, but..."

If this were the first GTA game, it would deserve a 10. Bein g that it is the FOURTH in a series, all the clunky movement, controls, and other mino defects should have been ironed out by now. And they aren't.

These game reviewers are scared that the little whiny kids in the forums would cry like little girls if they didn't give their beloved GTA a perfect score. Sellouts.

The proof is in the pudding. It's official that GTAIV is over-rated. Although I think we concluded this by now.

9.0. Pretty good game, but it didn't really wow me.
