The Devil is in the details, Niko you Rock!!!!

User Rating: 10 | Grand Theft Auto IV PS3
Ok, I was against giving any game a 10, but how can you not with a game that is as close to perfect that I have ever played. Let's start weith the graphics, it is simply awesome to see. It's a stylized verson of the other GTA games so it's not completely realistic, but that's fine; if you look at the game harder, you see the when your car gets hit the bumper dangles as you go over bumbs in the road or hills. There is no load time going from one place to another in a car and what load time there is is when you go inside a house or an apartment or start a mission, but that's only a second or two. While in the car and NOT during a cut scene if you pan into the car your characters move thier mouths while talking. I never seen little details like this in any game and find this amazing. The story line is incrediable and unlike the maincharacters in the other GTA games you really care about Niko, he's a faulded charcter with a tourtured past and that makes him more human. The more you visit his friends and "go out" with them the more he talks about his bloody past and you really feel or the guy. The sound is great, when your traveling through a tunnel the car sounds like it, the music is ok and the radio dialog is funny, but gets repetitive after you play the game for a while, but doesn't take away from the game play at all. There is so much to do in Liberty City as you can play Darts, pooll bowling go see a two clubs and go to a strip bar (no nudity), even watch TV at home. The Online play is fun and is a good mix of things to do there. You also have a choice to kill certain people in the game or not and the outcome will change (in a minor way) the outcome of the game. The Trophys are also fun to collect. Everything about this game simply shines and is a must buy for any PS3 owner.
