The GTA series has always brought cool games to your finger tips, but this one is like no other.
In my opinion, GTA has never been able to deliver very well in the graphics department. This year is totally different. Besides that whole new story and other BS, the first thing you're going to notice is that this game is beautiful. The gigantic map has never looked this great, because the Next Gen strength out competes any old consoles. Everything is more clear and detailed, and the action and movements are far more realistic then they have been before. Explosions are probably the coolest thing, since they now look incredibly realistic.
Generally you will play through the same kind of story as always. Many short missions will pull you through quite an interesting story, during which you will meet a brand new interesting cast of characters. That being said, the missions aren't incredibly challenging and may not keep you very interested. Some very interesting details are the fact that not every person on the streets is a copy of a few character models. Instead, Rockstar has gone very deep and some how made many more characters to fill your streets. Still there are many weapons and cars. One problem is that the police might come abit to easily for your own liking. Aswell as this multiplayer isn't very strong at all.
Once again there is a great soundtrack, featuring many classics, aswell as some newer titles available through the radios in the car. Aswell as this there is some great voice acting, and some funny commentary while you play. Also there are some great weapon sound effects which will all have you blown away.
If you think you've played GTA before think again. This is a game that you need to play to feel the true experience. Visually the game is now officially stunning and brings the map to life like never before. An 8.5 out of 10.
