Grand Theft Auto IV is a very fun game. You play as Nico Bellic, a European immigrant who came to  Liberty City, America, with his cousin Roman. Roman looking for the American Dream, and Nico looking for revenge. The game is a great stress reliever, and I recommend you play it.

Graphics: 4
GTA IV definitely isn't known for its graphics. Helicopter blades go through walls, broken car parts are pixely, and more. Plus, buildings that you can't go into aren't good looking. Pretty much everything super close up doesn't look good. The graphics aren't completely awful, though. Some of the cars look cool, and the explosions are awesome. This is why I give the graphics of Grand Theft Auto IV a 4.

Sound: 8
Most of the sound effects in Grand Theft Auto IV aren't very note-worthy, but I've added a couple of extra points because of the radio. When you're in the car, you can listen the radio. There are twenty three different radio stations in this game. My favorites are Liberty Rock and JNR. All the stations combined boast over 125 songs. That's a whole lot of music for one game. It's fun in an odd way to shoot down cops and helicopters while listening to jazz. Then, there's the sound effects. The voice acting is OK in this game, but it could use some work. The sound effects that come from things such as explosions, cars, and guns are pretty normal in comparison to other games. I rate the sound of this game an 8.

Addictiveness: 9
Grand Theft Auto 4 is very addicting, and lots of this comes from the depth of the game. There's so much to do that you just want to play it more and more. There's many missions, and you want to unlock everything and beat it so you can have more fun. Plus, there's multiplayer, which can be addicting, too. This game is a good stress reliever, so if you come back from a crappy day at work or a boring school day, fire up GTA IV and unleash your wrath on virtual people. It's fun, and you aren't actually hurting anybody. Sadly, the addictiveness doesn't last forever. Soon, driving around shooting cops gets boring, and you're looking for every single way to have fun. This happened to me, and I stopped playing the game. Since the addictiveness doesn't last a super long time, that's why I give it a 9.

Story: 7
This game isn't known for it's story as much as it's other aspects, but It's still a pretty good one. You, Nico, start out with your cousin Roman running a taxi business after just moving to America. Somehow you get pulled into the criminal underworld, and next thing you know you're robbing banks and dealing with druggies and jerks. Throughout all this, Nico has one thing on his mind: revenge. I won't go into why or who he wants revenge with, because that would be spoiling the story. Altogether, though, Nico isn't THAT bad of a guy as it seems he is. He's just trying to survive in America. So, the story is pretty good. One thing that I liked was how you can choose how things happen sometimes. There will be parts where you can kill someone, or let them live, and it affects the story in some way. Near the end there are two very major decisions like these, and they completely change the story. Another minor story thing is the dating, where you can get a girlfriend and get perks from doing so, such as free clothes or free healing. This is sort of complicated to explain, so I'll skip it. The story, I give a 7


Depth: 10
There are so, so many things to do in this game. First there's the obvious; the story. The story is long, and gets you a good amount of gameplay. There's also side quests you can do, like assassinating people for money. Plus, you can hang out with friends and go on dates, like I mentioned in the story section. You can do stuff like boating, eating, drinking, racing, playing darts, going bowling (from Roman's annoying calls...), Pool, and more. If you do stuff with friends so much that they really like you, you can get great perks such as discounted weapons, free chopper rides, free taxi rides, and more. This gives you hours of fun and useful gameplay. Then there's the free roam. You can do so much stuff here, that you will get hours upon hours of fun. Drive cars off ramps, jump off the highest building, kill the police officers at 6 stars with cheats, mass kill pedestrians, blow up huge lines of traffic, get knocked off a motorcycle at high speeds, and more. There's so many things to do in free roam. Finally, Grand Theft Auto 4 has multiplayer. The multiplayer is pretty much the same thing as free roam, but with actual people. And there's not only that. You can do things such as Deathmatch, racing, Car Jack City, Cops n' crooks, Team Mafiya Work, etc. But I do admit, the multiplayer could have used some fine-tuning. With so many things to do in Grand Theft Auto IV, I give its depth a 10.

Difficulty: 4
This game honestly isn't all to hard, ESPECIALLY if you use cheats. There are some missions that are super hard to get past, but most of them are rather simple. The cheats help make the game a lot easier, and I think it's good that they made the cheats harder to use in Grand Theft Auto V. The controls are pretty easy, too. One thing that isn't very good is the combat system, though. It's really easy for your punches to miss in this game. But with shooting, it's super easy, due to how it auto aims. The driving system is pretty easy, too, but it's sort of hard to go around corners without crashing. Plus, it's hard to get away from the police when they are 4 stars and up. All these factors are why I give the difficulty a 4.

Overall: 7.9

This game is very fun altogether. It's not too challenging, and there's a lot of things to do. And I mean a lot. The game is also super addicting, as is the story. Finally, while the graphics aren't pretty, the sound and radio definitely makes up for it. One other thing I think they should have added is a way to customize your cars, other than the randomized colors from the Pay "N  I definitely recommend you play this game if you haven't already. Overall, i give Grand Theft Auto IV a 7.9

This is a great review. You gave plenty of details about the game, what you liked or did not like, and you gave your own personal opinion about it. Good job

This was a good review I really liked this game, so I tho the graphics should be about a 6 instead of a 4, they really aren't that bad.

Yeah, like tornadocam said, you added a lot of details and I could tell that you have played this game through and through. It's full of details, little noticable things and other stuff. Great review man

I may never get over how GTA has gotten so much praise amongst what it allows you as a character to do, all for fun, not even like the force unleashed where you slowly become a good guy, but it's a game where you kill lot's of INNOCENTS.

Mit's off with this game, I don't know all the details, but If I'm right that you can sleep with hookers, and the game is pretty much about doing whatever you want.

Then no.

Sounds like a terribly game adding to the already terrible situation of moral depravity here in the United States, though, I don't know everything about the game.

OK

I looked into it.

Not impressed at all.

The game was going to allow your player to have sex with your girlfriend and record them with sex tapes.

Now, in all honesty.

What decent person would play this game, let alone support it? Do people even realize what they are simulating? I don't think so. It sucks, and this is contributing to the problem of young kids talking about sex, drugs, etc. Cause parents buy this game, and don't care what there kids are doing.

How is this game even legal?

*forgets that porn is actually legal in the US as well*

Oh yeah, cause people can do whatever immoral activity they want in this country so long no one get's hurt, (outside of drugs, and the government forcing you to wear a seat belt.- oh, wait, Marjuana is legal now.)

Dude, you talk about in one thread about how this generation is screwed, but in this one, you seeem to be praising one of the culprits! what's up with that? :/

I know that it's just a game. But porn is also just a picture! :/

                     . . . or child porn. . .

Sword legion : Obviously, I was trying to avoid the explicit things about GTA IV in this thread. I would have rated the game higher if it didn't have things such as strip clubs and hookers. :/. And you probably won't believe me, but I'm proud to say I didn't enter a strip club in the game once, unless it was for a mission. Nor did I hire any of the hookers. Plus, it's just a game. And yes, I know that that is a super crappy excuse, but it's the only one I have.

Popeye116 :

Then don't play it!

Here. Play a real game that has a good point at the end of it, (not to mention, you aren't actually killing innocents. There are WAY more games out there that are much better and just as good gameplay wise. Check out some of the sonic ones  (specially for the dreamcast)

Dude, why don't you talk down the game instead? talk about why it's bad, how the violence, and pure evil atrocities are just silly and take away from the game. How a game other than this one would be much, MUCH better.

And there are!

Ocarina of Time is the number one rated video game out there, and it SHOULD be. GTA V is only number 2.

Cause OOT touches something that GTA never will,

It's our soul, and it does it in a good, no, GREAT way. :')

I think that you are a smart kid, and AWARE of what's going on, and you can fix it too!

Stanley Parable certainly is a lot more awesome, and much more moral, plus it's actually funny!

DON'T make excuses, DO what's RIGHT.

And God will bless you for that, I know that He has me!
