GTAIV Review
Date of Review: Apr 6, 2009
The Bottom Line: If you like to do as you please, this game is definitely for you.
Grand Theft Auto IV is the best game in the franchise so far. Though this statement is controversial, I believe it is true. Throughout the entire franchise there has been satirical humor, but in the newest edition it is evermore evident. Internet dating, steroid popping muscle heads, biker gangs, radio and television shows, cell phones, nothing is sacred in this game. Besides the humor just the sheer ability to do whatever you please makes this game great. Though most people think that all you do is kill hookers, this is an option, but not the most fun. The storyline is great and filled with hilarious characters, such as my personal favorite, Brucie the shark testosterone taking muscle bound alpha male. Brucie is what would happen if that high school jock never grew up and was always jacked up on energy drinks. Rockstar is the king of satirical humor in video games, which make this game worth playing without all the other great gameplay aspects. But those other aspects are what make the game great and not just good. This is in no way a childrena€™s game but those old enough to fully enjoy this sandbox game. GTA IV makes anything you ever wanted to come true, come true. If you want to blow off the steam and just beat up some people, with out any intention of hurting any actual people, this is the game for you.
