  • Its the best GTA ever, in all ways. If you thought the other GTA titles were impressive, just wait until you get your hands on GTA IV. Were serious. In terms of city size, gameplay mechanics, mission types, narrative story and user empowerment, GTA I...
  • There arent many things wrong with the game. But if we had to nitpick, the story gets weighed down at points by the introduction of too many characters. You practically need a program to keep track of whos who and whats what. The trademark "GTA glit...
  • Buy it — you know you want to.

  • Everything, but more specifically, the attention to detail. Has to be played to be believed. This game is history in the making and it is simply impossible to adequately describe every amazing attribute.
  • Close-quarter combat is clumsy. Would have been nice to have seen a PC version at launch. Neither of these detract from what is a simply mind-blowing game that will thrill for many years to come.

  Published: 2008-05-01, review by: stuff.co.nz

  • Abstract:  When Grand Theft Auto III was released all the way back in 2001, it changed the way that the world saw video games. It offered a simulated microcosm of life, a parody of American culture, which could be explored and exploited on the whims of the player...

  • To this day, Grand Theft Auto seems almost like a serendipitous fluke to me, a fascinating but improbable tale of two incredibly ambitious brothers almost stumbling into their third-in-sequence megahit by tapping a niche freeform legacy reaching back ...

  • Looks the bollocks, Can tailor the experience to suit your own needs, A living, breathing city where almost anything can and probably will happen, Do all those things that youre not supposed to do
  • Handtohand combat feels clunky, Poor brakes on cars
  • Grand Theft Auto IV PCIn Stock: £24.99 (RRP £34.99) The scenario I’ve just relayed to you is just 10 minutes in the life of the main character and a mere snippet of the whole Grand Theft Auto IV experience. The story of GTA IV follows Niko, a Bosnia...

  • Sumptuous graphics, Niko truly feels like a real character, so much to do and see
  • It ends, eventually, it will devour your life in one great chunk, you’ll want to use all your years holidays at once
  • Buy it. Play it. Experience it. The hype has all been true. Grand Theft Auto IV is the single best game currently available on this generation of consoles

  • Occasional popup, Still the odd targeting issue, Virtual strip clubs are still weak

  • Its Grand Theft Auto… with multiplayer
  • Co-op modes tend to loose their appeal pretty soon, Rough around the edges
  • After years of wishing and waiting, GTA fans finally have multiplayer injected into their beloved franchise with Grand Theft Auto IV. It’s not quite in the same league as a Call of Duty 4, but it’s still an awesome addition to this series...
