Wow. What can I say. This game by far is the true definition of next generation gaming. This game on all levels is the best game I've ever played. Graphics are seriously insanely good. I don't know how much more lifelike video game characters can look. Add the attention to detail in the surroundings, realistic voice over acting, character movement that's fluid and real, and the sense of accomplishment and closure you get from the story. You get the most complete gaming experience. I can't wait for the sequel!
What's great about it: Graphics, Game play, Story line, too much to write here...
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.

So I am completely new the GTA franchise so with all the hype and top reviews I figured I had to pick it up. I have to say however that I am really disappointed at how this game looks. The animation looks 2nd generation and the background graphics look washed out and dull. Compared to games like "Uncharted" which has mind blowing graphics, gameplay, and a natural character movement this game seems second rate.
What's great about it: Big interactive world. Fun story line.
What's not so great: Graphics, controls, issues with AI.
