All Rockstar games i have played are incredibly boring and uninspired.
GTA series is immature with terrible stories, L.A Noire was too slow paced with too much travelling around and Red Dead Redemption is just GTA on a horse. (and i hate any game with zombies in it)
The so called 'Advances' they make for the gaming industry are non-existent.
EDIT:
Some of the worst franchises to exist: Mass Effect, Final Fantasy and Halo.
