Most anticipated game....lived up to its hype?
Yes, this game lived up to the hype. It dominated in every way shape and form. Graphics were just stunning, gameplay was just so amazing. I have beaten the game twice already and it was an adventure both of those times. I did both of the endings, and yes, the out comes for both are awesome. As it was told in so many magazines and reviews before, you take on the role as Russian immigrant, Niko Bellic. He comes to Liberty City in search of a great life with his cousin Roman who had led Niko to believe there was all this power and wealth here. Well Roman was a big phony and lived in a run down apartment, owning a taxi cab, who gets pushed around by almost every gambler in Dukes. So Niko is left with having to fix all of Roman's problems, when Niko has problems of his own, getting a good life in LC. One thing leads to the next with Niko helping Mob Bosses, Drug dealers, and irish hitmen.
The online play for this game wasn't so good, but i wouldn't blame Rockstar, this was their first multiplayer game, and it was enjoyable for awhile, but all of the excitement will be found in the single player storyline of Niko's brand new life in Liberty City.
