"Screw Hollywood, Go Game" Rolling Stone Magazine full page review in Movies section! RS1055 June 26, 2008

User Rating: 10 | Grand Theft Auto IV PS3
Peter Travers has given GTA IV 3.5 of 4 stars in a very well written, must read review. Says it is better than anything he has seen at the multiplex so far this summer except maybe Iron Man. I have subscribed to Rolling Stone since I was 12 in 1974 (God I am getting old) and have never seen this before! For awhile RS was doing video game reviews but they stopped that over a year ago or so.

I have played GTA since its inception on the PC. Then watching it growing up on the various consoles and watching it get better and better. It has been amazing how much GTA has evolved over the years.

When I first started playing the game I had the most fun finding the tank and blowing up everything in sight and crushing the cops. That horrible top down view and 2D graphics evolving to the stunning work of art that GTA IV is now. What a ride it has been playing all the various versions.

I am a sucker for collector or box sets on DVD's or games so I got the special edition with the lock box, keychain, book, duffle bag and sound track and LOVE IT! The lock box is almost identical to the saftey deposit box I have at the bank.

Well time to settle in for the next 400 hours or so and corrupt myself, again.
