IGN AU: Grand Theft Auto IV Review

21
Thanks to the most believable characters, the best visuals, the most realistic physics and above all, the most fun to be had of any game yet, Grand Theft Auto IV deserves a place in the collections of anyone even vaguely interested in videogames.

At a minimum of 30 hours to just finish the story missions, and anywhere up into the hundreds of hours potentially offered by the multiplayer and tracking down every last secret in the game, GTAIV does represent a huge investment of time in today's hyper-paced society, but trust IGN AU, it's more than worth your investment. Entertainment, of any kind, doesn't get much better than this.

Graphics - 9.5

Overall -
9.8 / 10

That isn't true. IGN AU is always listing for both PS3 and Xbox 360. Here is PS3 review. They are identical. That is why I am posting 1 review in both 360/PS3 channels.

I was going to skip out on GTAIV and wait to get it, but I actually let myself watch some of the videos (actually G4 is where I saw them) and now I am more hyped for the game then I ever was. Defintely going to pick this up Tuesday. I'm almost thinking of calling in sick but my sick days are all used up. Either way I will be getting it. Can't wait!

5 - THis is why EA will ruin GTA5
Its the attention to detail and the insane amount of stuff going on around you. It must take hours upon hours. EA would likely push the game out as soon as the story missions were complete. Please EA, as a gamer, dont buy take 2. Please. Leave us this one little peice of heaven(hell?)

at this time that I posted, the PS3 version is at a 100 percent metascore, the 360 version, at 99, so far i dont know if it could beat Ocarina of time as the best rated game of all time.
