    Im a big fan of the gta series but Ive yet to be blown away by this. Maybe next time when they release another gta game Im hoping the city would be twice as big than gta san andreas, or better yet bring back alot of the good stuff from san andreas to the new gta.......

    @EndoftheworldX i agree its sad that xbox 360 only got on 10/10

    It looks like a good game but dose not deserve a 10

    Every time I watch videos about Grand Theft Auto IV I remember how I excited I used to be about it before I even got a 360. Makes me want to play it all over again. It was an awesome ride, but it's a little odd how this is the ONLY 10 that the 360 has ever got.

    10/10 doesnt mean perfect, it means masterful.

    the most beautiful city design of any gta games i think

    @realguitarhero5
    It really does not make any sense does it?

    wait lemme get this right... killing civilians as a domestic terrorist is fine in GTA, but a russian terrorist in modern warfare 2 makes a big fuss?

    this game could have been so much better if it wasn't so damn repetitive and more stuff to do

    By far the best game I've ever played.... But what the crap!! he said the game wasn't perfect, but he gave it a perfect rating

    "Grand Theft Auto IV isn't perfect." And yet you give it a ten............

    This 10/10 review fooled me as it did with the Assassin's Creed review. Definitely not worthy of the 10s it got, not when its less game that San Andreas was. Still a great game, maybe a 9.0 or 9.5, but nothing near perfection sorry.

    This series is overrated. I don't understand. I played through most of vice city but got stuck because of some lame glitch, i played through some of san andreas, and I beat ChinaTown wars. I find nothing special about these games. It's still fun but it don't deserve scores like this. But that's just me.

    "Grand Theft Auto 4 isn't perfect"

    Well then why the hell does it get a 10 out of 10?

    I never understood why these games (GTA) get such high praise. They're decent, to be sure, but the maximum for me would be, say, an 8.5? Probably an 8, that seems right.

    GTA IV isn't one of the best games of 2008. It's THE best game, of 2008.

  • RealShotD4ny3l

    If you haven't gotten this game yet there's no reason not to now that it's only $30

  • RichSnakePrice

    Posted Oct 10, 2009 2:58 pm PT

    This was one of the best of 2008, but I still think the best GTA is either Vice City or San Andreas.

    "GTA 4 isn't perfect" Good thing it got a perfect score then...

    This is one of the best game's ever made for the Xbox, PC and PS3, this is my own little review of the game,


    The Grand Theft Auto games, have proven to be a success. As the game GTA San Andreas was astonishing as it improved the gameplay of the GTA collection. Now Rockstar has really proven it's ability to create games, as they released Grand Theft Auto IV. This massive action game has the same story line as the previous GTA games, but the game captures you from a different perspective of a Eastern European Immigrant in The United States of America called Niko Bellic. Niko travels to America in hope of promise and opportunities, but as he arrives to Liberty City he soon discovers the way of life style there is. However there is Luxury and wealth and it is there for the taking.

    This 3D graphical game has really shown what gaming is all about in a daily life style of mobs, therefore it deserves a 10/10 in my opinion.

    This is the best game on the Xbox 360. I love it, the multiplayer isn't really there but the game itself is a gem. The expansion packs make it even better. Take it from me, if you haven't had this yet then you haven't used your console to it's full potential.

    this game deserves a 9.5 or something else but not a 10 i mean its great but not that great and why is halo 3 almost halfway down or bottom of the list it should be like top 5 next to gears of war

    Posted Aug 24, 2009 7:50 am PT

    if this game doesnt deserve a 10 then no game deserves a 10 (well except for mgs4) wat more do u want uve been given enough out of this, massive fun, good graphics, a huge place to free roam wat more do u want, dont be greedy , no game is better than this, 15 out of 10 from me

  • Disturbanc3

    Posted Aug 24, 2009 7:39 am PT

    I agree it's not a 10, It needs replay value. But easily one of the best games out there. You wont regret purchasing this one.
