GTA 4 is the fourth installment in the Grand Theft Auto Series.
Theft Auto 4 blew me away. This is a game you have to play. I didn't
find any flaws in this game, other than the nuisance of the police
and FIB. Grand Theft Auto's story is quite long and extremely
interesting. The story will have you coming back to venture on as Niko Bellic, a Russian immigrant.
Liberty City is extremely large. There are millions of things to do in Liberty City. It is to imitate New York City. The best way to see Liberty City is to take a helicopter tour of the entire city. You can go drinking, play bowling, go to a strip club, a cabaret club, watch a comedy act, play darts, go boating, street racing, cop hunting etc. etc.
The Graphics of Grand Theft Auto 4 are rich at a glance, but poor under scrutiny. However, the amount of action happening is easy to over look the graphics.
The Story of GTA 4 can be finished in about 25=35 hours. But with all the things to do, you can easily double, maybe triple that time. GTA 4's story is compelling, interesting, and well played by the motion capture cut scenes. The language is rich and well written, leaving the player wanting more and more. However, the missions in GTA 4 are difficult and sometimes frustrating. It isn't always killing targets and such, however, there are interesting ones, such as car races, and bank heists. After the story ends, there are several side missions and random people you can run errands for.
Multiplayer modes in GTA 4 are plentiful. There are some issues of severe lag between players, but that shouldn't stop anyone from playing it.
The Sound of Grand Theft Auto 4 is terrific. Except for the car engines. Enough said on that.
Overall, GTA 4 is a game you simply must play because of it's detail, story, and Liberty City itself.
My Score: 9.5/10
