Grand Theft Auto IV is the next chapter of the award-winning Grand Theft Auto franchise from Rockstar Games, and it will be coming to the Xbox 360 on day one. In addition to online multiplayer, a first for the series, gamers will experience hours of additional gameplay with two downloadable episodes exclusively available on Xbox LIVE following the release of the game.
What does the American Dream mean today? For Niko Bellic, fresh off the boat from Europe, it is the hope he can escape his past. For his cousin, Roman, it is the vision that together they can find fortune in Liberty City, gateway to the land of opportunity.
As they slip into debt and are dragged into a criminal underworld by a series of shysters, thieves and sociopaths, they discover that the reality is very different from the dream in a city that worships money and status, and is heaven for those who have them and a living nightmare for those who don't.

One of the best games made
 Reviewed by Peter from Ferntree Gully, Australia on May 9th, 2008
This is one awesome game. It is the funniest since GTA Vice City. Alot of thought put in to make make it a realistic virtual world. Just go on a taxi ride, and see what I mean. Gameplay is just as fun as ever. Plenty of things to do between missions, eg. darts, bowling, drinking, going to Cabaret Show and Comedy Club, going out with girlfriends and other people you meet. I'm still finding new things in the game. The best GTA game so far. Highly recommended.
Takes GTA 3 to new heights
Reviewed by Phillip from Rotorua, NZ on May 7th, 2008
I can't say this offering is bad, that would be a lie. I love the detail on the cars, bullet holes and blood stains are just fantastic. However I am not convinced this is the best GTA. It is the next installment of GTA 3 but it is not up to the content of GTA San Andreas. SA had a much more diverse world, where as like GTA 3 we are back to a limited city.
I do like the game but was really expecting GTA to continue on from San Andreas not go back to GTA 3.
Oh and Steven don't just guess that it was made for PS3 first, go find out. Game developers have said that they prefer Xbox as it is easier to develop for thanks to Microsoft and its collection of developing software. I don't personally know or care which came first but if you want to make a comment at least find out. The game will be the same on both, it just depends if you like to nit pick.
Best in the series
Reviewed by Damir from Auckland, NZ on May 6th, 2008
I have never been a fan of the GTA series, so I was a bit hesistant to purchase the game initially, but I am glad that I did anyway. This is easily the best GTA in the series; gunplay has been hugely improved over what was seen in previous versions, the main character Niko is easily the most charismatic (a must for an anti-hero), mission retries are a welcome change (although mid-mission checkpoints would have been better), and obviously the graphics are a lot nicer.
Speaking of graphics, unlike what someone below has said, the differences between the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions are negligible. Some sites like IGN and 1up have preferred the PS3 version (on the account that it had less texture pop-in) whereas Gameplanet's own reviewers have preferred the 360 version on the account that it has a better colour scheme. Both version suffer from rare slowdown, which absolutely does not effect gameplay. What the 360 version does have that the PS3 version doesn't is exclusive downloadble content and achievement points, which is why I bought GTA IV on my 360 and not on my PS3.
So regardless of what console you have, GTA IV is a must purchase. If you only have one of either the Xbox 360 or the PS3, then the purchase is a no-brainer. If you own both machines, then weight up the possibly slight improvement in graphical fidelity of the PS3 version, over the extra content and achievement points of the 360 version. Regardless of what version you do go for, you're bound to have a blast playing the game.

Frame Rate Problem
 Reviewed by Steven from Auckland, NZ on May 1st, 2008
Played this on 360, like the reviews from Gametrailers and IGN, both talks about frame issues for the 360 system, which IGN claims is not in the Ps3 version. I guess this game was developed for the Ps3 and transfered over to the 360..
9/10 for Xbox360
10/10 for Ps3

Coolest Game Ever Made
Reviewed by Ross from Auckland, NZ on April 29th, 2008
Have been playing the game all day after receiving it nicce and early this morning.
I have to say: This is one darn brilliant gaming experience that shouldn't be missed.
I recommend it so much as once you play it you will see just how STUNNING it really is.
The Graphics are much better than I expected, and the city feels so alive, that you actually will be sucked in to it like it is real life.
All that was missing from previous GTA games has now been fulfilled. There is constantly tons to do (possibly a tad too much at once) and it is all presented in sleek menus and with a cool mobile phone in-game, which triggers most of your missions.
There is plenty of violence and offensive language, which of course adds to the experience.
The cops feel smarter than ever, the GPS in cars helps you navigate through the city that is easily as big as the entire San Andreas.
Plenty of characters, Stellar voice work, and a fair soundtrack across the car radio stations.
Guys - THIS IS NOT JUST THE COOLEST GTA -...... ITS THE COOLEST GAME EVER!
Presentation: 9.9/10
Graphics: 9.4/10
Sound: 9/10
Gameplay: 10/10
OVERALL: 9.9/10

Let down
Reviewed by John from Auckland , NZ on April 28th, 2008
Unfortunately, this isn't the game I hoped it would be. What spoils it for me is the cover system. It is buggy and unreliable. The game also has no mid-mission or quicksave feature, like the ps2 GTAs, so expect much frustration when the cover system fails and you are killed by a shotgun-toting bad guy. The targeting system is also unreliable, much like the older GTAs too. The graphics are fairly good, but the character models aren't great. The size of the city is impressive and there's some handy new features like GPS navigation to make it easier to get around. The new physics engine is also nice - just try shooting a petrol pump 'til it explodes sometime!
But all up, I'm afraid this is somewhat of a let down. San Andreas and GTA3 remain my favourites in the series to date. More work should have gone in to making a cover system that works properly.
