The graphics are something I don't bust my balls about these days because it seems as if every game within the past 5 years has used some kind of unreal engine to power it making every game now a days look pretty much completely the same. What's this though! Something... different! Thats right there's now a game that bumps in and has amazing graphics and it's NOT powered by unreal. GTA 4 is a massive game which causes the frame rate to chug worse than a 15 year old power scooter but it all can be forgiven because when you have a game the size of GTA with the graphics it has its a fucking miracle that it works at all. Clap. The graphics are great. Sound: Oh my dear lord the sound in this game can be summed up in a few words. Totally fucking awesome. It does not reach Battlefield Bad Company levels in terms of gunfire sound effects but the voice acting and car noises blew me so far back in my chair that it flipped me over just like Brittany Spears car. The voice acting is very well done with Nikko Belic sounding the best. The gunfire can sound like pea's shooting out a... well... peashooter at sometimes but when you crank up the volume so loud that you can no longer hear your neighbors Rock Band the gun effects may seem to be great. The cars sound convincing and the city just plain old sounds like its real and alive. Gameplay: The gameplay has been fine tuned this time around. The last 1000 grand theft auto games had gameplay so bad that it sucked worse that a 2 year old hooker. The aiming feels great and the new cover system is just as great as some other newish titles such as Uncharted and 2006's Gears Of War. Blind firing with an RPG feels really great. Seeing that fat ass cop that you hate cause he got the last entire box of jelly doughnuts explode like that girl from Cloverfield is great. Driving feels a lot more fun this time and not so stiff. Shooting is great as well with an all new Resident Evil 4 style over the shoulder Free Aim system along with the bad old lock on system that we all know and "love". Appeal: This is where GTA has always shocked me. These games have all been so long and had so much to do when you we done. Do into stores, eat stuff, go on dates and the new ability to watch crappy TV. Then you can go steel cars, shoot 1000's of people, spit on birds and insult the old grandmother who doesn't have enough flower to make cookies. The game's story itself is gonna take a whole 40 hours of you life that is ticking down by the second, just killing random people and causing havoc around the city is more fun than it should be and going on dates only for you to accidentally push your date onto the train tracks never gets old. Graphics: 10 Sound: 9.3 Gameplay: 10 Appeal: 10 OVERALL: 10 Edited by fuddles, Fri Aug 29, 2008 12:28 pm.
