So I was doing some reminiscing about the old GTA's (III, Vice City, San Andreas)looking at old screenshot's and watchin dome video's on youtube and realised that GTA4 doesn't even come close to them.

When it first dropped I got caught up in the hype and was going on like IV was the best out of all of them, but really and truely it cant even be compared. And I'm not even basing this on the lack of things you can do in comparisson to the others, it's just the feel to the game. It's made a change but not for the better imo.

Not even saying IV is a bad game coz it's not, it's fucking sick but in comparisson to the prior titles it aint shit. It feels deadout when you go on rampages, like their not fun anymore. Overall the game just doesn't have that GTA feel we've all been acustommed to.

Still it will be ineresting to see how the next one go's down.

i think the biggest problem was the city

it wasn't atmospheric enough, not as distinctive as old ones

also the amount of patrolling police cars ruined rampages a bit

it sacrificed fun for realism to an extent


MGS outshined it

it was sick on GTA3 with the Triad areas, Mafia areas, Colombian Cartel areas and they all had their own car

Yeah that was a bit stupid, the police would cash those guys in straight away, driving around in the same cars! LOL

The triads are in cinatown, the polish crew are in hove beach, the yardies hold down the corner and you can find the hood gangsters in the projects

But the thing is after playing all the other GTA's ive just got bored of running through the streets shooting people. Its not the same now, the games too worn now.

tbh 75% of my gameplay time of GTA4 was me boxing with cab drivers and the security at the helicopter place

The way they improved the graphics and the whole way the game works was sick though, the next one should be big if they get the rest right.

Jumping out of fast cars into fast coming traffic on the other side of the road is fun.
And jumping from buildings & helicopters.
