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.

Great Game - Horrible Bugs
on April 30, 2008

I own both the 360 and PS3 versions of the game. I have had Zero problems with the 360 version but with the PS3 version it freezes for 2 or 3 seconds about once every 30 mins or so. It also crashed once when I was doing something with the phone. The PS3 version seems to look slightly better than the 360 version, fewer jagged lines, but the constant freezing is annoying. And to top it off you can't play online! Whenever you try it says you can't find the server. Lame, very lame. I've had no problems with the 360 version getting online. So, if you own both a 360 and a PS3, get the 360 version. If you only own a PS3 go ahead an get the game, it's worth it even if it's still beta.
What's great about it: It's still the GTA that you love, much better graphics, attention to detail
What's not so great: Crashes, freezes/stutter, can't play online
I would recommend this to a friend!

Get control of the game with this Logitech Extreme 3D Pro 963290-0403 joystick that features a twist-handle rudder and 12 programmable buttons for precise control. The hand grip features sculpted curves for a comfortable hold during long gaming sessions.

Great Joystick Ruined by Defective Manufacturing
on April 8, 2008

I love the feel of this joystick, it's nice and heavy so it sits still on your desk. The buttons are all in the right place, it has a rudder via twisting the main stick, it has a nice simple throttle, overall the physical design is brilliant.
So why did I give it one star? Well, unfortunately the brilliant physical design is hopelessly crippled by a sub-par USB interface. Something in the design of the USB internals is causing the stick to almost immediately have problems being recognized by windows. It would also just flake out in the middle of a game and windows wouldn't see it any more.
I thought this might be an isolated occurrence but this is the second one I bought and that one died after just 3 months of very light use.
I guess it's a testament to how much I liked the stick that I went back for another one and am almost considering a third, I just wish they'd fix the USB internals.

What's great about it: Solid, heavy, high quality external components, great response (when it works)
What's not so great: USB internal componets of very low quailty
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
