The Grand Theft Auto series is given the PS3 treatment in GTA IV - the first next-gen title in the series!

What does the American Dream mean today? For Niko Bellic, fresh off the boat from Europe, it is the hope he can escape his past. For his cousin, Roman, it is the vision that together they can find fortune in Liberty City, gateway to the land of opportunity. As they slip into debt and are dragged in a criminal underworld by a series of shysters, thieves and sociopaths, they discover that the reality is very different from the dream in a city that worships money and status, and is heaven for those who have them and a living nightmare for those who don't.

Here's a plan

ArnoldLayne69 from , 22nd April, 2008

try just asking for the 'new' GTA when you go to the shop (or when you send your mum). getting a bit like monty python, try writing IV or VI a thousand times by the morning! And don't do it again!

decent next gen outing

A Customer from Glasgow, 17th October, 2008

this is not the definite Grand Theft Auto expiriance this is just a great debut for the classic series on next generation hardware. it is lacking the magic that made vice city and san andreas so brilliant liberty city while technically the most realistic liing breathing city in any game just lacks the magic that made the ps2 games outstanding That may sound s if i hate the game but it is really quite the oppisite the gameplay has erased most issues i prieviously had with it introducing a coveer system to on foot action and shooting in cars is now much easier even if the car handiling isnt the best in the series. the game has went more realistic meaning none of the crazy san andres stuunts but the missions offer some of the best yet espicially a Heat style bank robbery so still a great game all round and the best graphics ever seen in the sandbox genre

Does what it says on the tin

A Customer from Norwich, Norfolk, 30th September, 2008

Yep more of the same stealing cars, doing stunts and violence, not a great deal different to the previous GTA. Graphically it might be slightly better but having played 'Force Unleashed' then GTA IV looks old in comparison. It doesn't seem to make full use of what the PS3 is capable of. The story line didn't draw me in and the violence gets boring very quickly. There are better games I'd recommend first.
