The Grand Theft Auto series is given the Xbox 360 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.

Over Hyped

HMJ from from Dartford, Kent, 23rd April, 2008

This game is going to be nothing special. Judging from the disaster that was San Andreas, as well as Liberty and Vice City Stories, this is going to be another game that everyone hypes up before it's out and then complains when they realise it's awful. GTA has gone downhill since Vice City.

A Huge Disapointment

NiallB from , 17th March, 2010

I am a big fan of the GTA 3 and vice city. But this replaced the fun from both those 2 with mud. The controls were muddy the driving was muddy the scenery was muddy. After about 4 hours i put the control down and sent it back. There is no fun to be had here, unless of course you like dating sims.

Same-y

Wiggum69 from from Paisley, 4th February, 2010

Too many copycats of this type of game had made GTA 4 somewhat redundant, as some alternatives have bettered the same-y content of GTA and provided something new and different. Whereas GTA keeps churning out the same games but in different locations and characters with funny accents. Dont get me wrong, its still a good game as its still fun to run people over and beat up complete strangers but ive done it all before (not in real life)

A turning point...

A Customer from Lancs, 19th December, 2009

Grand Theft Auto 4 - no film, book or other game has come close to telling such a complete, beautiful, violent, exciting or satirical tale of the 'American Dream' today. You actually like the characters. Niko is a great character - hard as nails without seeming like an arse, roman is a lovable git and dimitri is a twat just like he should be. Liberty city is gorgeous and look out for the mission 'Three Leaf Clover' because it is one of the best missions ever created, period, . Add in multi-player and its near perfect. In my opinion, the best game ever made.
