I own all the last gen GTA games and by the time San Andreas was released the format had grown stale IMO. The series is a jack of all trades but master of none. Despite all the critical acclaim, I've seen nothing to suggest that GTA4 is any different. I prefer revolutionary games which is why I rate GTA3 above VC and SA. I get the impression that GTA4 is more of the same which was my gripe with the earlier games. I will try the game out this weekend, although I suspect that I will be disappointed, given the excessive hype that surrounds it.
I've contemplated purchasing an HD console, but this game is only one of many considerations that will effect my decision. I've got Mario Kart and Wii Fit to keep me busy in the meantime.
