IGN: Official Review from GTA IV

 

 

Classic Game Room GTA IV review

 

 

I have no doubt in my mind that Grand Theft Auto V will be a much better game than GTA IV gameplay wise, but I think many reviewers have changed their opinion on GTA IV in the years that came afterwards.(Blinded by hype)

 

GTA IV had the benefit of being the first true HD experience in the series, Which I believe gave the game a huge advantage review wise.

Brand new engine, brand new everything!

 

GTA V on the other hand, has been in development for 5 years now. It's bringing tons of new gameplay mechanics to life, and the overall feel of the game seems to be much higher then GTA IV at the time leading up to release.

 

Do you think GTA V has what it takes to beat a wooping 98 Metacritics score?

My prediction is : 97

I had wondered if any of the new features (like the 3 characters) would be polarizing to reviewers but now I think it'll be heavily acclaimed. It did seem like some of the critics changed their opinions on IV over the years.

I don't think it'll get as many great reviews as IV but i definitely think it will be better.

 

Who knows, maybe it will? wow.gif

I think something around 95, i'm not sure why but I have a feeling that V's score won't surpass IV.

Well there is no way IGN is going to give V a 10/10 like they did with IV. I can hear it already, "While the gameplay is extremely fun and will without a doubt provide countless hours of entertainment, we can't help but notice the sub-par graphics."

 

If they were already on the graphics in the May preview, you can bet you'll hear about it again in the review. Probably going to be a 9.8/10 for IGN.

I'd be surprised if they gave GTAV a 9/10. They'll probably find something to bitch and complain about like, "oh! The graphics aren't up to today's standards!!!"

I don't think reviewers were "blinded by hype." What else could you compare GTAIV to in spring 2008?

 

San Andreas scored a couple points lower than GTA III despite being superior in every technical sense.

Don't listen to anything IGN says, the only thing they care about is graphics. It doesn't really matter what the media rates the game anyway, cause we the GTA fans will love the game no matter what and thats all that matters. No made up score by some random gaming website changes the way i'll view this sexy game. icon14.gifbiggrin.gif

f*ck IGN. You and I are the only critics that matter. Anybody who is into different types of games may not have the same outlook on GTAV as other people. I have these two HOMOS I work with that all they talk about is COD all f*cking day and when I tried to talk to them aboutGTAV, they seriously could care less and one said " I played one of them for a little a few years back" to me that is crazy but to an idiot like hime I am crazy. Games are like music, it all comes down to personal opinion. Thats why I say f*ck critics and pay them no mind.

I don't even get it why IV got that high. Not saying it's a bad game story-wise and graphic-wise, but still didn't deserve that 98, V will.

It has to get a higher score, it would be ludicrous if it is beat by its predecessor.

You can't be serious. The guy doesn't even get Niko's homeland right. A biased SA fanboy he sounds to me. confused.gif

 

I've seen fairer critiques of GTA IV on here by people who don't feel the need to say "sh*t", "retarded", "gay"etc every few seconds.

 

It's hardly a fair and impartial review.

The heavy use of fa**ot, homo, and gay was unneeded. Made him sound immature.

Well I'm guessing half the people were not listening to the guy. He is right about almost everything in this game. He made of not known were Niko was from cause he might of not payed attention to the story. The point of a open world game is the gameplay in the world in which GTA IV lacked.

That's your opinion. I thought his review was more crap than anything.

Oh come on. The moment he says "piece of sh*t" I knew it was going to be incredibly biased and unfair.

 

He whines about the loading time for clothing, but completely ignores the fact it's still much faster than it was in SA.

IV was a great game but I think the reviewers got stupid when they gave it 10/10's. An 8/10 or 9/10 is more reasonable. IV wasn't perfect at all and it had some evident lacking features.

I hope GTA 5 will get a perfect rating but most reviewers have probably learned their lesson to not do that.
