Well GTA IV is simply an iteration in the series with better tech (graphicsphysics.) There is no REAL jump between san andreas and GTA IV in the gameplay arena.

OOT however was a massive leap forward in all departments, and revolutionized a genre.

OOT WILL go down in history as a "better" game (I don't even really understand how that is gauged. You had more fun at the time of release playing one game over the other? Its all way too abstract and unsubstantiatable) than GTA IV but in my opinion OOT isn't even the best Zelda game. I found TP, LttP, LA more enjoyable than OOT.

Though, i really don't care what the makority of video game nerds (a term I usie lovingly) say is the 'best game ever' today. Enjoy your games. That IS the point of them.

 

Indeed, we could argue here till we're blue in the face (or would that be the hands?) but there will always be different opinions and it is an incredibly difficult task to come up with a system that can encompass all possibilities relating to why one game is better than another for absolutely everybody. At the moment we've just got numbers, but i'm sure I speak for most of us when I say gaming isn't about numbers, it's about the fun you have with games.

Go forth and enjoy your games, even if someone else thinks they are crap, you don't need them to validate your purchases if you do truly have fun with them.
