This is the best game that I have EVER played. I have been a fan of the GTA series since part 2, and I never thought that they would progress as they have. The game is so much fun with a compelling single player storline, and then you are also given the option of jumping into multplayer, which is stunning. I could not have asked for more. My only complaint is that they released the game the same week as my finals, so theres no chance of me studying. lol. Great job Rockstar.
Get 'em whlie they're hot!

If you have been a fan of the previous Grand Theft Auto franchise games, you will not be disappointed. Guaranteed!. This latest installment resemble previous gameplay mechanism of the earlier installments. You complete missions to progress the story in the open-world Liberty City.
You can develop relationship between bunch of friends you met in the game, depending on your relationship with them. They have speical ablities to help you in tricky situations.(Sell you discounted weapons, lower your wanted stars etc,.)
Overall, Rockstar had added many features and activities you can do with your friends than ever before such as Bowling, Darts, Drinking, Strip Clubs and many more. You'll never find yourself running out of things to do in the city.
The extras from Special Edition are nice. Duffle Bag and SDB is useful for many purpose. Soundtracks and Artbook are also nice merchandise. Also, the Amazon Exclusive GTA IV License Plate will impress many friends to come.
amazing city, tedious missions

overall this game is a 10, but the missions all seem the same at points, I loved the story and apperently there are different endings so you can play through multiple times, the gun play has been upgraded heavily from the other gta's and the action is more intense, the car chases also seem much more intense and the rag doll effects of people make for some humorous situations while driving I guess you could say, in a month or so I may play through this again.
this games effing awesome

Overall story is well written and unfolds very well within the game. However I find that the repetitive structure of the missions and keeping your friends "happy" can get old later on in the game.
Overall, it is worth playing and the best in the series that I have played thus far.
The bonus items were an added treat to this game.
Freedom of gameplay

I can't express my emotions! You should play it yourself. I'm fan of GTA series and it's one of the best games I've ever played. Even more... If you play GTA game for the first time, take GTA4 and be sure you won't be disappointed.

This game is just like all the other Grand Theft Autos, and the graphics are not where they should be for a PS3 game. The story is simple, which would be fine if it wasn't so complicated to progress.
Best PS3 Game

This game is awesome. It is the most realistic GTA game! The Special Edition is definetely worth the extra 30 dollars. My favorite additions are the safety deposit box and the duffel bag.

GTA IV is the best so far in the series.The Special Edition comes with a metal lockbox that's pretty cool for storing the game and its contents or whatever else you like.There is a poster size map of the cities that you can cruise to and thru and a hardcover booklet about the game.The Rockstar keychain is also pretty cool.As far as the software itself,well cruising to strip joints and bars and meeting new thug friends to earn cash and to go into different stores and shop for your personnal pics of weapons and or clothes.Also that ever continuence of blood and gore is at its best.There are also more vehicles to steal.Vipers,Hummers,Cudas,BmwX5,and Corvettes to name a few.The vehicles handle accordingly as you'd expect in real life somewhat.The different characters are also pretty cool to interact with.Overall,the best GTA ever!
