GTA is a great series, with each chapter, it just keeps getting better and better. After this forth installment, it is scary, and exciting to think about what Rockstar could do to make a better game, because "GTA4" is perfect, they really went the whole nine, and outdid themselves.. Great story, breathtaking graphics, super game play, jeez what more do you need? How about fun Multi payer? Well it's got that too! GTAIV is a living, breathing, vibrant world within itself, a world you can easily get lost in, such amazing detail in every little thing. Liberty City is so detailed I bet after playing this game extensively you could go to New York on vacation, and never get lost driving around. As you first make your way into Algonquin you are awestruck by all the lights, buildings, and atmosphere. I can now say that I have been to "Times Square", though it's called something different in the game, Star Junction I believe. The areas are so damn huge, going from burrow to burrow you could easily get lost, good thing they have a great mapping feature that gives you the best route, so all you have to do is concentrate on driving. You are Niko Bellic, this is your story, and you're on a blood soaked journey to become "The King of Liberty City", nothing but pain, betrayal, and riches await you. Just remember "There ain't no halfway crooks" , if you're in for a penny, you are in for a pound, so you might as well enjoy the ride. Nobody can put into words just how great this game is, If you don't own this game, how can you look your in the mirror, and call yourself a gamer? Grand Theft Auto IV is a masterpiece, and well worth the wait, nuff said!
