Battle of the GTAs
We've rated the clones - now let's see how the originals stack up against each other
Actually, that's not quite true. There are nine. Can't have that, can we? Grand Theft Auto IV seems poised to take the crown as the definitive chapter in the series -something thatwe'll have a better idea about when the trailer hits tomorrow - but that stillleaves a gaping power vacuum between now and October. Since we've already gone and decidedwhich of the clones was the best, it seems only fair to comb back through the series that started it all and pick an alpha thug from its ranks. So from start to finish, we'll look at every game the series has produced so far - excluding potentially-connected spinoffs like Manhunt and Bully - and then, once we've weighed the strengths and weaknessesof each, we'll make them all fight and crown the survivor as kingpin.
Let's get this fight started, shall we?
