I know i know, there are a lot of GTA IV hate threads but i just had to get this off my chest.. First of all.. Bioshock, Gears of war and COD4 are all TRUELY next gen or (this gen if you want to get technical) games that easily deserved a 10!! GTA IV does NOTHING revolutionary whatsoever.. Hell even Mass Effect brings more innovation and fun to the table then GTA IV does.. and it only got a 8.5!!! I just have no idea whatsoever why GTA IV got a 10, how does it innovate from previous installments?! infact there is more to do in San Andreas than GTA IV.. The story and atmosphere of GTA IV felt very ininspired as well.. Nothing about this game whatsoever screams AAAA..

I know it wont change the fact that GTA IV got perfect scores across the board but those perfect scores where very very undeserved.

Gears of War deserved a 10? Your kidding me right? GTA didn't exactly live up to the hype but it beats Gears in every way imagineable, IMO atleast.

i can understand how GTAIV is overrated, but putting it lower than Bioshock is just wrong.

In my book yes Gears deserves a 10.. The reason being is because i can honestly say gears is the only game that i have owned the day it came out and still play it almost every day to this day, atleast until Gears 2 comes out.. The only other games i can say that for is Halo 3 and COD 4 although Gears takes up most of my time. GTA IV online is terrible, boring,slow paced and just overall unorganized and meaningless to say the least

Let me get this straight: System Shock 2 got 8.5 here back in 1999, yet in 2007 BioShock deserved a 10 for being a dumbed down version of System Shock 2? Does not compute.

I disagree with all the games you listed.

But I still think GTA would have been fine with a 9.5

COD4 and Gears did not deserve tens. Gears multiplayer was great, but had alot of flaws. Same goes with COD4, and their singleplayer campaigns were a tad short.

Whats up with you.. I remember in a previous thread you said that you hardly ever play your PS3 but yet in your sig you have 2 games in your "now playing" and one of which is GTA IV, and judging by your previous posts you praise GTA IV like its a religon, ok you have it on your PS3 but yet you said in a previous post that you hardly ever play your PS3?! Hmm that makes perfect sense

Maybe because different reviewers are different people with different opinions, I'm guessing.

Not really, Bioshock is not next gen if you compare it to System shock 2 IMO.

GTA IV is one of the best games this gen IMO and from being rubbish.

I have GTA IV for PS3 and 360, which most people know here. I've completed GTA IV. If you want me to post spoilers, message me and I'll post the entire story. Also, you have 16 posts and you "know me" so well. So, what's your previous account? Bandodging, so not cool. ;)

You know, I kinda wish GTAIV had earned a 9.5 rating. Not because 'I don't think any game is perfect', but because I think we wouldn't have to endure NEARLY as much *****ing as we have to now.

If the GS score was 9.5, the user score would be, like, 9.8.

Um, it is a sequel, so of course it'll be the same at its core, yet this time they opted for more realism with the Euphoria physics engine. Games that you like are last gen in every single area, except for maybe graphics, so yeah...;)

GTA4 was like a GTA experience....it had great gameplay, maybe a little rubbish. Although, The story was crap and it made the missions feel like a chore. I actually had to take a break after 1 or 2 missions because it was freaking boring. Its definetly not a 10. And I think we realize by now reviews are scored on HYPE, OPINION, FANBOYISM, ADVERTISEMENT and MONEY.

Oh my goodness, miss part of your post.

NO, those games don't deserve a 10 either.

I always agree with anyone who says gta4 isn't worth a ten. The game didn't blow me away like other 10s did. Even THPS3. I have to give props to rockstar though on all the little details in the game. That's what probably pushed the game to a 10 in gs's eyes

I'm all for opinions, but to say it's rubbish is quite a statement. Sure, it didn't live up to your (or mine) expectations, but rubbish? Seriously?

Yes there are, and this is the 2nd one from you in the past 24 hours..... : | Call of Duty 4 is revolutionary? LOLKKK! That just made me lol. : )) I'm sorry, but a game that get's that many 10s isn't monopolized like you may want to think, there is a reason, you have to be biased against something about GTA IV. That's the only explanation.

Does the fact that it got a 10 really hurt that much? Come on, it's a fun game, its probably a little overrated, but still awesome, especially online with friends. Get over it already!

Edit: Bioshock is in no way, shape, or form a better game then gta 4.

i consider GTA4 the most next gen out of any game that has come out. just my opinion.
