Apr 17, 2008
GTA IV is a vast game, packed with detail. For every major set-piece, or game-defining mission, there are a thousand tiny things ticking away in the background, begging to be seen or explored. As in previous installments in the series, you could spend your whole time in the universe just moving about - there’s a sense of surrounding; a sense of time and place; a sense that around the next corner there’ll be something else to ...   » Read Full Grand Theft Auto IV preview

Tearing aimlessly through the streets of Liberty City, we punch the throttle of our stolen ride to see just how much speed we can squeeze out of a pokey four-door sedan. The commuter car's engine hums as we drift around a corner, and a group of pedestrians wanders into our field of view. Without a second thought, we swerve onto the sidewalk and slam into a middle-aged woman, leaving a blood-splashed dent in our car's hood as the remaining ...   » Read Full Grand Theft Auto IV preview

By now, you might have had a chance to check out the preview that went up earlier today from our UK counterparts (and if you haven't, you really should), which beautifully describes what it's like to cut loose from structure and dick around freely in the vast, open playground that is Grand Theft Auto IV. The beauty of an open-ended game like GTA IV, however, is that two people can play for two hours and see completely different things, which is ...   » Read Full Grand Theft Auto IV preview
