 Lots of Fun September 18, 2008

Unlike previous GTA games, there are very few missions that are timed, or are based on how much damage your vehicle takes. As always, there are very funny commercials. Some motorcycle missions can be annoying, though. Also, it can be frustrating when you're trying to do a mission and you get a phone call to be on the other side of the city within an hour. There is a learning curve with the controls, but eventually they become very easy. My first PS3 game and I wasn't disappointed.
 Single Player ok; Multiplayer horrible September 16, 2008

I first bought the game because of the multiplayer features, but ended up only playing the single player portion. The multiplayer design simply does not work. There are no server lists so you're stuck with the room that the program assigns you. Then the game does not start after a countdown but will wait indefinitely for the "host" player to start the game. That means everyone else is at the mercy of the whim of the "host" player. Many times, some idiot host would just refuse to start the game. There's nothing you can really do because there's usually not enough people in the room who know how to use the kick function. serious, wtf. Rockstar needs to come up with a patch, but they've already moved on to porting to pc.
single player was actually pretty fun. some of the controls do lead to frustrating moments (ie - you have to scroll thru your weapons and sometimes your target gets away because you took too long to whip out your shotgun). the best way to bypass the tedious parts of the game like dating and "hanging out" is using the cheatcodes. i was able to liberate myself from needing to waste time on those activities. still, i don't know why you can use the cellphone to activate cheats only when you're standing idly and not getting shot at. isn't that the point of a cheat, to have an easy way out?
overall i'm disappointed because the multiplayer potential was huge but they squandered it by poor design.
Not Bad September 15, 2008

The game itself is not bad. The missions and reputation you have to get with the others makes it more interesting than just going around destroying everything I wish they would just make it so you could download more missions or something.
Difference makes this a great game September 6, 2008

I was pleased to see the differences in comparison to GTA3. Most of the redundant tasks were removed and replaced with good quality and fun games and activities.

Well, I was excited for GTA4 to come out and couldn't wait to play it. But as the game progressed I have to say I actually got bored. The storyline didn't grab me as much as other GTA's. The graphics were nice, and it was a fun at first just exploring, but I guess I miss the variety of San Andreas with its forests, deserts, mountains, small villages and big cities. To be totally honest I actually stopped playing GTA4 and went on to other games. It's now sitting on my shelf collecting dust for now. Maybe in the future I will play it again, but for now I got other games to play.
