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, life is heaven for those who prosper and a living nightmare for those who don't. Developed by the superstar designers at Rockstar North, Grand Theft Auto IV continues the exciting legacy of the Grand Theft Auto franchise.

As with the other GTAs, there is a wide range of things you can do in this version. Whether you're doing the missions, causing mass chaos, or playing one of the many small games (pool, bowling, darts, etc) it's easy to mix things up.
If you haven't liked the previous GTA's then I wouldn't recommend this one either as it's a lot of the same type of thing. If you have liked the prior ones then you will enjoy this as well. It's not my favorite in the series but it is fun and the graphics are better.
What's great about it: Wide range of things to do, large map, best graphics for a gta so far
