GTA 4: The Greatest Game of All Time?
162 days 6 hours ago | by: DevonTheDude535
According to Metacritic.com, a website that averages review scores, GTA 4 on both PS3 and Xbox 360 have an average review score of 100 (out of 100) each, an unheard of feat! The only games that have scored even close (considering pc and 360) is Half-life 2, The Orange Box and Bioshock all with 96 point scores. Could GTA 4 already the greatest game of all time, the critics have spoken yes...

PS3 Metascore 100/100
360 Metascore 100/100

Update: The 360 version now has a 99/100

and yet critics can be wrong
the game has issues... so of course it is not perfect
if it is not perfect... it doesn't deserve a perfect score
if it has a perfect score... it's because critics were paid off.

Ha! I beat Kotaku.com to the punch, they posted an article similar to mine. Too bad the Kotaku one is on the main N4G page and not mine :)

No game can ever claim to be the greatest game of all time, (outside of personal choices), but 1 one game can be the greatest for a time and right now its GTA4's time.

now this type of statement I agree with!

MULE
ELITE
PACMAN
STARCONTROL
ZORK
ULTIMA
MARIO

all at one time or another have been the best of their era and none of them overshadow the achievements of the other. All are great games and deserve to be called the best game.

The score that a bunch of critics give a game does not define how great that game really is. I remember Halo 3 got 94, so I bought it, and was disappointed.

Everything's overrated nowadays, which makes it harder for truly great and original games to excel, where the same old crap shifts millions of units day by day (see: Nintendo).

The Witcher comes to mind...
probably game of the year but since it is small market and not reviewed much it will be passed over in favor of GTA

i disagree with you coz i'm not hyped up about either of the games you mention

FF - Too Japanese and turn based, plus its an RPG (yawn)

MGS - its gonna be about 80% cutscenes. i'll pick it up but i'm not expecting to be amazed by it like i am with GTA.

Even though I'm not a GTA fan, I'm more than happy to see this. Finally a really deep and expensive game is the best game of all time. Not some fun but otherwise easy Mario.

And even better, it's a M rated game. A Mature game is the best. Hopefully Fallout 3 can follow.
