The GTA series is one of the all time pillars of gaming. Rockstar has sold its soul to the demons of online gaming. GTA5 was more of a technical masterpiece than a story based adventure. It retread characters from previous games and then turned into a psychopath online playground. Old games are still the best.
@@Kiwi_2k24 Yeah, it's a shame. I like how serious the bike theme of the game was, feels reminiscent of old school bikers movies. All that means nothing anymore, cause Rockstar put not only Johnny but all The Lost MC members to the bin.
6:09 yeah people seem to forget that GTA ruled the gaming industry way before GTA Online became a thing. Hell GTA 5 broke sales records on its first 3 days of release when the online was no where to be found. Hopefully GTA 6 has a greater focus on story and interesting characters. Though I’m not sure any future GTA story will compare to GTA 4 or its DLC’s.
Yeah it probably is the best DLC ever made. Especialy TBoGT. It had one of the best pacing of any GTA game, and every single character was so enjoyable, and it was just fun to play more lighthearted story after GTA IV (without loosing the quality writing rockstar is famous for). GTA IV is to this day one of the best and most impressive games ever released, and to think that it's DLC's are pretty much full new stories on the same level of quality is incredible. I gotta say though, i love GTA IV, SA, VC, CW but my favourite one is GTA V - not becasue it's the newest, but i just love the main story, writing and characters (even though it's not tragic, and is more silly than any GTA before).
this is why my main console will forever be the xbox 360, i own current gen consoles but the real AAA high standard games were on the 7th generation, everything after that was low quality (with some exceptions of course like rdr2)
I completed the Ballad of Gay Tony but never The Lost and Damned and the one thing that makes this game stand out from the original GTA 4 is Vice City FM, the radio station that played 1980s pop music and what a station that was! 🎶
another thing worth noting about the dlcs was depending on which dlc you were in, you would get different weapons, game mode options, and character customization for multiplayer
this is my favorite rockstar game of all time. mind you I haven't gotten a chance to play RDR2 I know that will surpass it. but anyway you're the best BG keep it going I enjoy your content so much dude
Grand Theft Auto IV is a 2008 action-adventure game developed by Rockstar North and published by Rockstar Games. It is the sixth main entry in the Grand Theft Auto series, following 2004's Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and the eleventh entry overall.❤❤😮😮
The EFLC fix a big issue i had with GTA4: once you complete Niko's story you have nothing to shoot up, except police. The DLCs have infinite gang wars.
The Lost and Damned was my favorite of the DLC stories, the only thing I didn't like was the color filter in the game, I had to mess with the display settings in game, on my xbox 360, and tv to fade out the yellow and orange on screen. After that the color looked pretty much normal, but with a little bit of an orange tint and that didn't stand out though.
of course i remember it, people in online mode said i had aimbot because i use to use buzzard landing gear camera view and minigun them in 2 seconds flat. then if them or their friend got a lucky kill on me they would just missile spam the ground with missiles until they would kill me and not let me near another helicopter. as for single player i currently have it on steam deck and might 100% the game and TLAD after i 100% san andreas for the first time in my life.
Awesome video,just as a tip I think you should blur the game’s cover art in the thumbnail because it takes away from the mistery that makes you want to click on the video
Wzup! Just played through GTA 3,vice and san.. Got liberty + vice stories left to play before i will start up my ps4 and continue the story :) Which is your favourite ps4 games? Do you have any advices? Bought the red dead story after following your channel 😊
What a trilogy. Episodes from Liberty City are some of the reasons I absolutely hate gta online, it's success and players. Rockstar used to deliver amazing expansions that added to the core games and even expanded on it, talk about the true definition of "expanded and enhanced". Goat franchise, goat characters, goat dlcs.
GTA IV was one of the wackiest launches in the history of triple A PC gaming. The console versions had been somewhat more polished. Yet, the performance was nonetheless abysmal, with frames fluctuating from 20 to 30 on PS3 and from 20 to 40 on xbox 360, leaving the gamers with questionably playable experience. Nobody buys the console to struggle with the broken frametimes. 30 fps lock is already a kind of a fair compromise the consoles take. Going so far below that is just straight up bad. The image quality was also quite meh even for the 2008. Especially considering the shaky performance and the hype the game was generating. GTA IV is now properly enjoyable on high end PCs with mods fixing the shaky performance, graphical glitches, and restoring the content cut from the console version. Alternatively an xbox one, or a series are fine in the backward compatibility mode as long as you bite the bullet and suffer the low image quality. Luckily, the performance is stable though. I am not surprised that sometimes players rediscover GTA IV. Today it is just possible to play without all the struggle it had back in 2008.
Bruh like SA it was mediocre lol but you can see it any ways you want but for me I expect better so GTA V is aight but I expect better in GTA VI 😁 so no the older games to tediousness to much errand boy xxxx got bored quickly so no the like the newer games better but it all up to the consumer
GTA 4 was too mean spirited with its satire. Boring missions, none of the wacky side stuff the other games had and the friend system was a failure. The color pallete was drab and depressing. Turns out a realistic NYC is boring (same with GTA Vs LA)
GTA 4 was underrated and the DLC was INCREDIBLE!
It's only underrated now because of GTA V.
Top notch.
"underrated" and sold 25mil copies. That's an oxymoron
It was getting 10/10 everywhere when it came out. Not underrated.
😂😂
GTA 4 was ahead of its time, had so much fun playing it.
Super ahead, more than a decade ahead. And is still a great experience today.
GTA IV The Complete Edition is easily a top 3 best PS3 games of all time
I have the complete edition for Xbox One.
Easily...

Facts.
GTA 4s DLCs were goated in my opinion
Facts.
GTA 4 is the best GTA.
The greatest dirty crime underworld simulator no doubt.
TBoGT was fun, TLaD felt like those brutal Motorcycle gang movies from the '70s.
@@Kiwi_2k24 Yeah, it's a shame. I like how serious the bike theme of the game was, feels reminiscent of old school bikers movies. All that means nothing anymore, cause Rockstar put not only Johnny but all The Lost MC members to the bin.
The sawn off shotgun in the dlc is amazing
Gta IV with the dlc, is the best game rockstar ever did. Period. Gta IV and RDR 1.
Agree.
6:09 yeah people seem to forget that GTA ruled the gaming industry way before GTA Online became a thing.

Missing gta 4 ps3 free online. Death match airport.
oh, those were the times. what a fun multiplayer, no grinding bullshit, pure funfest.
Maybe the best DLC ever made. It’s almost like an entire different game!

@@adamlach6572 I totally agree with you! GTA 5 truly feels special. I hope we get something as good with GTA 6 !
Sorry did he say “when your older your a piece of shit?” I felt that…
This game needs a remaster
Recently completed all of it. It’s a total masterpiece for its time, and the writing is still very impressive. It’s not just nostalgia.

I may get heat for this, but GTA IV the complete edition is better than anything V had to offer.

gta iv multiplayer > gtao
Never played the DLC's but they are waiting for me on my steam library to be played on my 4k monitor. What a time to be alive!
oh, and what a time you'll have playing it, cherish every moment!
this is my favorite rockstar game of all time. mind you I haven't gotten a chance to play RDR2 I know that will surpass it. but anyway you're the best BG keep it going I enjoy your content so much dude
They need to remake this one ! And update it !!!
Nice wish! Or fairy tale
I still play it on ps3 sometimes
Timeless masterpiece.

Yes I remember the expansion campaigns for gta iv. It’s not it’s own game like liberty city stories was
It would be awesome if you can make walkthroughs of your favorite games dude!
Few days ago, I just started playing GTA 4 again. And now you made a video about that game. Incredible timing ⏱️👏
I love this game ❤️
Literally just got the OG GTA 4 for the P3 now im plotting to get stories of Liberty city next. So nostalgic😭
Are you on hen or cfw?
Can you still play this standalone on PlayStation 3 today without GTA 4?
of course i remember it, people in online mode said i had aimbot because i use to use buzzard landing gear camera view and minigun them in 2 seconds flat. then if them or their friend got a lucky kill on me they would just missile spam the ground with missiles until they would kill me and not let me near another helicopter. as for single player i currently have it on steam deck and might 100% the game and TLAD after i 100% san andreas for the first time in my life.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who wishes they would start making good single player games again! Too much focus on online play.
Awesome video,just as a tip I think you should blur the game’s cover art in the thumbnail because it takes away from the mistery that makes you want to click on the video
Yup
Wzup! Just played through GTA 3,vice and san.. Got liberty + vice stories left to play before i will start up my ps4 and continue the story :) Which is your favourite ps4 games? Do you have any advices? Bought the red dead story after following your channel 😊
best open world game ever released, the story is next level
I went just to ebay to buy this game for 3 Minutes. Thanks just in Time.
I recommend playing these games only after beating GTA 4, if you liked it you'll probably like them, especially Ballad of Gay Tony.
What a trilogy. Episodes from Liberty City are some of the reasons I absolutely hate gta online, it's success and players.

Got GTA 4 on STEAM for like $7. Amazing deal!
I still own this game for PlayStation 3
CEAH COOL GAMEPLAY
remeber watch dogs? Remeber you was the leading actor that played aiden pearce
I think gta 4 is much better than GTA5
I do too. I always remember how much more I love the driving in 4.
*Plain facts , there's more of Us with acquired taste* 🎉
Bring it back!!!
GTA IV is THE BEST GTA game ever made
I JUSTED ORDER THIS WOOO!!!
On what platform did you play?
Like both games dlc was good
I remember the first time playing gtaIV thinking it was a downgrade to San Andreas Niko couldn’t do nearly as much as CJ
Hopefully you now know how ridiculous your thought was.

The DLC was IMHO better than the main game.
Yes i remember it

Still playimg on 360
Is GTA 4 not the same as the gay tony dlc etc?
BOGT my favorite GTA
How are the graphics so good in this video?

Episodes from Liberty City was better than the GTA 4 base game, and that's rare.
