A brilliant game to both veterans of the series and newcomers alike

By shmedo | Review Date:
As a massive fan of the GTA series, i bought and played this game with sky high expectations, and 99% of them were satisfied. The graphics, the gunplay, the driving, the physics, the everything in this game is just utterly brilliant, especially the story. If anyone is a bit 'iffy' with GTA IV, but love the rest of the series do yourself a favour and buy it, i can guarantee you will not regret it. Instead of going into an indepth review of the game, ill just break it down into what i do and dont like, and hopefully you can use it as a guide to help make your purchasing decision -

THE GOOD
-The Graphics:
The graphics in GTA IV, are utterly brilliant (despite a few texture quirks). The shading, textures, lighting, just everything looks really nice and detailed.

-The Music:
The soundtrack is really good, definately has something for everybody.
Although custom soundtracks would be nice...

-The Story:
The storyline is nice and tight and really well told. Almost like watching a movie


THE BAD
Ok instead of bullet points for this, ill do it in a sentence. The one and ONLY thing i dont like most about GTA IV, is having to hang out with people. Like COME ON, its sooo annoying (i KNOW you can turn the phone off its not the point) and it restricts exploring freedom and such, creates such a dissapointment.


In summary, GTA IV definately IS the best in the series. BUY IT!
