GTA IV vs. previous GTAs
User Rating: 8.5 | Grand Theft Auto IV X360
When I played GTA SA, I wondered, how could they possibly make this better? It has everything you could want in a game, maybe not a master of certain game types but certainly a jack of all trades. It had something for everyone. It improved on GTA VC and GTA LC, adding just the right amount of new activities and new vehicles to keep one busy long after completing the main story line. Can I say the same for GTA IV? Unfortunately, no. GTA IV has interesting missions which are fun, but at the end of it all there's not a whole lot else to do after finishing the game. Sure you can hunt down 200 pigeons, but....why?! The achievement for doing so...maybe. What happened to bicycles? What happened to tatooes and haircuts? If GTA IV is a sandbox game, then GTA SA was a full beach! Don't get me wrong GTA IV has better graphics, and some good moments and little minute details as well. It's overall a good game, I had fun playing it. MP was OK for me, not mind blowning like COD4 or RS6. Am I looking forward to DLC? Maybe, depends on the price and what is being offered. Am I looking forward to GTA V? DEFINITELY!! Maybe Rockstar will expand on Niko's experience, adding more and more and more...now that they have a base game to start with, they should be able to make a beach out of a sandbox :)
