    Player Chronicle -- Posted on May 04 2008

    After all the hype and great reviews you would expect the next Grand Theft Auto 4 to be one of the great games of 2008, you would expect rockstar to cool things down after the trouble of the 'Hot Coffee' mod of Grand Theft Auto San Andres. Well you would be right to assume the first but not the last. Grand theft Auto is back and with far more attitude.

    This is the first Grand Theft Auto that I have really played through and actually enjoyed it. This game creates a new level of expectation for the series in which the city for all intents and purposes is alive. Rockstar has out done its self, the pedestrians carry coffee, groceries, and other items and a simple push, nudge, of bump makes them drop the item. Its things like that, those in-depth details that make the gaming experience that much greater, and quite frankly it makes gamming just that much better.

    Okay now down to business, your name is Niko Belic, you are an illegal immigrant from an unknown eastern European country that is in the midst of war. You have a dark past that will be revealed through the conversation of the game. Your cousin Roman picks you up in his cab and this is your first opportunity at driving, as a word of advice learn to use the hand break. Upon arriving at the cab depot a cut scene will take place in which you will meet Romans girl. Later on you will meet Vlad and many other characters that will send you one interesting missions. In the first hour you will end up going on a date with Michelle, driving around a Jamaican drug peddler, running over countless pedestrians, and surf the in game internet (you will not be able to mess with the dating site till later on). You will end up doing several jobs for your 'employers' and be able to take advantage of their special abilities, some of these include being able to call for a car bomb, discounts on purchases, a car strapped to the roof with 'heat', as well as many more.

    In closing this is a one of the better games I have seen this year so far and I am hoping this set precedent for many games to come this is getting a 10/ 10 from me and I am just blown away by the detail. Even though I have only played about 5 hours, I intend to pour many many more hours into the single player campaign.

    *The online is great as well I might add-
