This game is one of the best I've ever played. The Liberty City world they have created is enormous and you could spend a lifetime exploring it. There are so many hidden things and interactive features. Plus, the graphics are amazing. Best 3rd person shooter ever. The only bad part is sometimes the missions get monotonous. You get a little sick of having to sneak into a building and shoot 25 guys, steal a bag of cash, and run out the door. However, there are so many that you do end up getting a variety.
What's great about it: Unbelievable graphics and realism; enormous interactive world
