It's very good but it's not worthy of the universal 10s. (Bribing maybe? I can't see of another way it could have gotten all of the 10s when it's just the same old GTA)

The controls are awful, the camera is pretty terrible, driving sucks, money system is almost as bad as TP's*, much less side stuff to do, glitchy, lacking features and fun stuff from previous games (where are my ambulance missions, and I seem to have lost the ability to do taxi missions because of a story related event).

I really don't see how this game could have gotten the universal praise. 10 out of 10 games are supposed to do nearly everything right, and be very innovative, and GTAIV does neither. I'm thinking bribing is possible.

What do you think? I still think it's a high 9.2-5 game but it's just not as good as said.

Compare it to something like Super Mario Galaxy which is expertly designed, with VERY minor flaws, and I just don't understand....

*It's really lousy. It's okay for the first 15% or so of the game but later on you get so much money and NOTHING to do with it. They should have let you buy houses or businesses or something. Same thing as TP's money system, except possibly even worse.


I have played the game for 40hours and have 64.7% complete, so i think i have played it enough to voice my views on the game. The camera, controls, driving all take a while to master, it took me about 2-3 hours.

The money system is not bad, and i want to know how you think you have so much money and nothing to do with it, i have about 350k right now, and have been between 300k to 400k for most of the game and i have to watch my money very close because in less then 1 hour i can be at zero with out even trying. When i die i lose 8k to 15k or something.

The game was given 10's becasue the rating system is broken they rate shitty games to high so when a game like GTa comes out and blows the others away they have no choice but to give it 10/10. SMG has been given 42 perfect scores last time i checked gamerankings which is alot more then GTA4 has gotten. SMG is an upgraded GC game, and its not very good, maybe a 7 at most.


The green I kind've agree with.

The red I don't agree with at all. :|
