I waited for the reviews to come out before I purchased the game. I thought that it would finally be the GTA that I would spend more than 10 hours or so on the story. I was wrong. While GTAIV was a great game, it wasn't a great game for me. I basically ended up just running around killing people, running people over and running from the police. I think it was too similar to the previous GTA games but they have a good thing going and I don't really see why they would change it. I guess I thought since IGN gave it a 10/10 that maybe this would be the GTA for me.
