Could GTA4 Really Be THE Best Game Ever Created?


Hype can build a game up and make everyone buy it. Can you say Halo 3? At this point I'm 99.9% sure that the hype surrounding GTA4 is not hype at all. I've never seen as many perfect scores for a game before release from game reviewers. When this many people give a game a perfect score I'm inclined to believe that it's not hype, but fact. If you own a 360 or a PS3 you should own this game. Even the scores and reviews that aren't perfect are about as close as you can get to perfect. I read through the entire OXM review. After reading it made me even more geeked for it. It sounds like Rockstar has made a perfect game or as perfect as you can possibly get.

Just look at the review scores so far (by the way I really wish I was in the video game reviewing business so that I could be playing this right now)

IGN = 100

IGN UK = 100

1UP = 100

EuroGamer = 100

GameSpy = 100

Official Xbox Magazine UK = 100

Team Xbox = 100

Game Informer = 100

GameDaily = 100

Xbox World 360 Magazine UK = 98

GameTrailers = 98

Computer and Video Games = 95

That's nine perfect scores, two 98's and a 95!!! Wow, just wow! I have my copy pre-ordered. GameStop is doing a midnight sale on the game. I may just have to go get my copy at midnight like I did with Halo 3.

I am looking forward to this game actually. I am surprised because I am not a GTA fan. But it really does sound and look fun.

About Me

My photo
Kalamazoo, Michigan, United States
I'm 38. I'm addicted to Xbox 360 gaming and Dallas Stars hockey. I make a decent living at a boring job where I run two autoclaves and do various other tasks. My escape from this boring as hell life is video games, hockey, and music. I generally listen to Metal music, but I also love 80's tunes as well as 70's tunes. I have an unusual love for the band Overkill. They do it for me for some reason. Blitz is GOD!
