Despite all the bugs, this game gets amazing when you have a pc that can run it
Graphics: As far as i'ves seen, gta iv has the best graphics, but has changed now. Even so, the graphics are still amazing even playing the game on lowest settings. Lighting effects, an the extreme detail sometimes makes me think its real life.
Story: The long story of this game is an important part of it, and luckily it is great. Introducing a whole new cast of characters into a excellent story-line is very good start to the 4th generation. It got me engrossed in the game for a solid 24 hours. The story-line is about a man named Niko coming to Liberty City to start a new life.
Performance: Unless you seriously have the most powerful pc in the world could you play this game on high settings with performance still good. Even at low settings, the game will still lag a lot when its raining, which is why i use the weather cheat. So this game gets little praise for its weak performance on my pc.
