Forums - Gaming - Did GTA 4 stand up to its hype?

RED53DEVILS on 08 November 2008

Its been 6 months sice the much hyped GTA IV released.It sold millions of copies and broke many records.But did it stand up to its hype?Many have said that they dodn't like this edition of the game.I played the and liked it but didn't but I would say that SAN ANDREAS was much better than this.

What do you think about the game?

I still think Vice City is the best by far.

to be honest i didnt like it that much .. for me vice city is far better than it.

The core game is quite good.

What it lacks though is stuff to do after you beat the missions...

Where is my tank? Where is my houses & business to buy? Why can't i get the army after me? Why can't i get weapons/Armour spawn at my safehouses or business?

Giving us friend activities was nice -- the first 3 or 4 times i did them... but picking up your friend, playing a boring mini-game and dropping the friend off every five minutes is a grind... your friends should stop calling you when they hit 100%...

Annihilator Helicopter is also too week. Give it missiles ... i don't care if that's overpowered -- its fun...

Personally id give the game 9/10... its a good game but Vice City is better and i would of thought Rockstar would be able to top Vice City by now. (San Andreas was good by GTA: VC > GTA: SA imo)

no, if you think fanboys expected this game to destroy the Wii and Wii sold much more at this game's launch, i think no!!

also, maybe it looses the title of "best selling of 2008" because of Wii Fit and Mario Kart Wii, so i think it's not as perfect as the stupid reviews say!

About the reviews, they are useless for this game is not the best game this gen, even on X360 or PS3 alone.

 I third that notion.  Vice City rules! You can't beat the 80s. San Andreas is a close 2nd simply because I don't like the whole "ghetto gangsta" theme. but at least there we had K-DST, Radio-X, and K-Rose.  as for the topic.  no, but that doesn't mean it was a bad game by any means. but definetly my least favorite GTA.
