    vendetta's Grand Theft Auto IV (Xbox 360) review

    Fantastic game with only a few minor problems.

    Very good game. Many people have already explored what's good about it, I'll try and pick apart the things that I didn't like as much.

    The only problems I really had were with the targeting system. On occassion, the auto-lock would lock onto somebody far away, or a pedestrian, while there was somebody right next to me attacking me. Kind of annoying, but easily fixed by letting the trigger a bit looser and using the manual aim. Still, it's a bit frustrating dying this way.

    Another problem was with the map. On some missions it would dictate that I go to a certain point, but the point would be above or below where the map led me. I had a particular problem with the 10th delivery mission for Jacob where I had to arrive at a tunnel at a certain time, but the map constantly led me to a point above the tunnel on a street. Very frustrating.

    Other than that, this game is far an away better than every other GTA I've ever played. This rendition of Liberty City might be a bit smaller than San Andreas, but it's a lot more fun, a lot more alive, and there are many more things to do.

    All in all, this game is an absolute must play with a few minor problems with combat. Buy it!

Grand Theft Auto: The Lost and Damned not only proves a good justification for the existence of DLC, but also expands on the idea of what DLC can really do and sets a lead that all other developers and publishers should fo...
