Grand Theft Auto 4 – GTA Series
The 3D Grand Theft Auto has always been a cultural behemoth, raking in millions and millions in sales and plenty of media coverage with every numbered release. It was the same case with Grand Theft Auto 4, but now that several years have passed since its release – this underrated classic rarely gets brought up as often as its other siblings. And this is a shame really, because Grand Theft Auto 4 houses one of the best stories in the series; it masterfully balances the gritty nature of Niko with goofy characters like Roman Bellic.
It also manages to tell a serious story about the cycle of violence, but without skimping on the satire that defines these games. Sure, the gameplay might not have aged the best or it might not have the best online component – but the story really grips you and takes you through this wonderful adventure. Try it once again, and you’ll be surprised.
