Dont get me wrong the game is good but its not perfect. The only games that deserve a 10 have to be 100% perfect. I can only think of a few games that deserve a 10, like OoT FF7 starcraft. I know you will disagree with me on this but i like the driving on the other GTAs i rather turn on 100 and have it bing fake rather then slowing all the way down like in real life. Also i use to like the millitary and a few other things that were all fake. I would of given it a 8

what surprised me was that the reviewer that gave it a 10 said in his review that "the game isnt perfect." so, if it isn't perfect, why give it a ten?

I thought of the samething too until I got online. Just trash talking with those guys and killing them in a free roam experience to back myself up makes me believe that it definetly deserves a 10. :)

Gamespots review means it's prime. They don't use perfect as a 10. 10 means prime.

Let's all start topics and rate the game. Then something might change.

for the experience it gives to gamer it gets a 10 just because of the variety of different things you can do in the game and it is a open world free roam. but over all no game is a 10. GTA is awesome but the controls can be sketchy at times and there are graphical glithes and lighting and shadow problems at times. its awesome but def not a 10

They dumbed it down a bit from past GTA games and it may be to a point revolutionary but no where close to a 10 score revolutionary, so I say no.

10 doesn't mean perfect for the last time, it just means it sets the bar higher and gives other games a bar of achievement to strive for.

There you go, what makes you think something can even be perfect? Nothing is. 10/10 or 5/5 etc. from a reviewer means exactly what Toriko42 said.

The cover system is seriously flawed, the driving is a step backwards for the series and all the camera options while driving are terrible...but with that said I'd still rate GTA a 10. It is just so good and there is so much to do it would be hard to rate it anything lower than a 10.

Its deffinetly not worth a 10! I'm just thinking they gave it a 10 because of the hype, and as its already said, the gave it a 10 and says the game isn't perfect...0_o. I will give GTAIV about a 9.0

this has been established in IGN that the reason it should get a 10 is that even though there are flaws, the game has so many good qualities that it makes up for those flaws, or something like that

i used to think not but when i really think about it, i think it does. i mean the story is just amazing and the voice acting is near perfect. it doesnt have the best framerate but its pretty good. the physics is amazing in the game. if the multiplayer didnt lag as much it could deserve a 10.

I think oblivion was bigger and more detailed than gta

Oblivion is definatly bigger than GTA especially with all the DLC but in no way it it more detailed

because its not a perfect 10 its just alot better then 9.5. like it would be 9.8 on the normal rating scale. so that estimates to be 10.0

Well your kinda late on the uptake this has been posted numerous times but since you posted ill state what i said last time. GTA 4 does not deserve a 10 it is a great game, I play it all the time and the live is loads of fun. The live is the funnest if you have friends and just go into free mode and just do whatever your in the mood for. My personal rating for this game which i submitted to gamespot under user reviews I gave this game a 9.5. Since its not perfect and has a very few minor details, details that dont even matter but the fact that they are there gives it a a 9.5, because in my book a 10 is reserved for only a perfect game, which i also think no game will ever deserve a 10. I think the hype influenced GS review alot and pretty much every gamer everywhere. But looking back on it we realize we made a mistake, and probably so did GS.

In my opinion. This game was overhyped and overrated. I personally would've given an 8.5. Right now its collecting dust. Once you beat the game there isn't much to do and the multiplayer is no fun at all.

I couldn't agree more, GTA IV definitely ain't a 10'er, the new graphic and story can't make up for alot of the content from previous games they removed, not even to mention fewer weapons and a much shorter version :( Of all the games i knew, i never thought that Rockstar would be the ones to pull a "Halo 3" on their biggest franchise simply sad :cry:, if they dont make up with the next GTA im done with the series forever, and converting to Saints Row :?

Im with you on this one. I beat the game, and now there really isnt much left to do except the "hang out with friends" missions and the occasional odd job.

Now that I got through the main story mission I don't think GTA4 deserve a 10. Its just missing little things. But it is still a fun and a must buy game. I give it a 9!

yes it does....think about it: not many games offer what GTA offers to a casual gamer. We all here are gamers but let's take a step back and observe many of the casual gamers who may have not beaten the campaign. You can't say that the campaign was terrible. It made you think about what you chose to do in situations and the results actually may have affected you (in my case anyway). The multiplayer isn't my favorite. I have absolutely no idea why but it may have to do with the incredibly large maps and the unfocused objectives you must complete throughout the entire multiplayer game. I absolutely love the city by the way. Not many of you actually consider what it must have taken to detail every single tree, building, and alleyway throughout the game. I mean SERIOUSLY consider it. It's tedious work but look at it, you are not complaining about that. Compare it to Saints Row, which had the same building model in multiple streets and highways. Every street in GTA is different. Every SINGLE car in the game handles differently. The physics system is just absolutely insane. Try jumping out of a moving helicopter and tell me that isn't realistic. The game took a step back in gameplay for realism and for me, that was worth it. Granted, I've never played any other GTA games. I'm just going off of what I heard.

In conclusion, ask yourself this question:

Would you rather play a game where you play as some random character with no feelings or thoughts and beat the bad guys with a limited amount of cutscenes and personal emotions (personal= your emotions). A.K.A. Saints Row.

Or...

Would you rather play as Niko Bellic. A man with nothing as he steps into one of the most violent and intense cities in the world as he battles alongside his cousin's friends and his friends' friends against mobs, citizens and the like.

Personally, you are being too hard. And when it comes down to it, I GUARANTEE you would've chastised Rockstar for not making the game more realistic if the gave you an incredible amount of stuff to do.

Thank you and goodbye.
