TVG: Grand Theft Auto IV Review (10/10)

The Power | April 28, 2008 | Reviews | XBOX 360 
Here is another review of the most anticipated game at the moment. GTA IV. Less than a day away, this review has made me want the game even more. They have gone quite in-depth with this, mentioning little things such the difficulty of driving around a corners plus the different radio stations that you can listen to.

Cannot wait, this review is raving about it!
The most eagerly awaited videogame since CJ rolled through the streets of Los Santos, San Fierro, and Las Ventura, is finally upon us with the worldwide release of GTA4. Marking the series' first appearance on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, after an agonising delay, Rockstar North's latest opus arrives to an unparalleled level of fanboy hysteria, boardroom expectations, and mainstream controversy - surely, it's going to be bigger than anything that's come before?

Taking the centre role this time around is Niko Bellic, an immigrant from Eastern Europe who's hiding a sinister past and seeking a better future with his cousin in Liberty City. Remodelled beyond recognition and bearing an unmistakable resemblance to New York City, in true GTA fashion, it's not long before Bellic becomes embroiled in the misadventures of a group of narcissists, egotists and homicidal maniacs, the quintessential cast of Liberty City's shady civilians.

Booting GTA4 up for the first time is a moment of intense anticipation and trepidation; after so many years of waiting, it's finally upon us, but can it truly live up to all expectations and deliver the defining open-world game on the latest generation of consoles?

    I hate to be a stick-in-the-mud but aren't there enough GTA IV reviews on GameGrep at the moment?

      LMAO i know but the approvers continue approving articles that shouldn't be approved.
      Namely the GTA articles stating the obvious and causing flame wars.
