This is a video game review of Grand Theft Auto IV for the Playstation 3. The review is from the perspective of an old school, retro gamer. The reviewer attempts to not be drawn in by the hype surrounding the game.

The level of hype surrounding Grand Theft Auto IV is something we haven’t seen since the childhood memory-killing Episode I. As such, we wanted to wait a while before we reviewed this game, just to make sure we could give our readers an honest review to the game. And now, several weeks after the game’s release we can safely say that it really is as amazing as everyone says. Even before playing Grand Theft Auto IV, the intro song for the loading screen is eerily amazing. It gives you chills as you get the feeling you are ramping up for one of the most intense experiences of your life. The world has gone wild for this smash hit release. Obviously we know there have been three prior releases and has gone overboard with itself…again. As if killing people 182 different ways in the previous chapters of GTA was not enough, you now have even more options and tools for death and destruction. As an added bonus, all of this is displayed to the gamer in beautiful 1080p high definition and surround sound crystal clear high fidelity audio offered by the current generation of gaming consoles.
