I haven’t played a Grand Theft Auto since Grand Theft Auto (1997). I am almost ashamed to admit i’m really enjoying the latest installment. the dialogue is simplistic and patronising, its graphic engine appears dated and the vehicles all have a disappointing under-steer tendency. in fact i was sure i had wasted my money during the first hours. however, it appears the GTAIV experience is one that is greater then the sum of its parts.
