Now that the dust has settled is GTA4 a good game or not ?

[Shinlock]

GTA4 was really a step sideways

- 'improved' graphics (the pixelization was insane, in a bad way)
- Smaller world then prev games
- less options then prev games.

Rule 1 of sequals, ensure it at least matches the prev game in content size and features. Rule 2 is add more.
