    Gta 4 was so ahead of its time, even if they release it on 2021 with slightly polished graphics like we seen with mods I would've believed it as new games. The mechanics, the physics, the feel about the game.... Can't believe this game was out back in 2008

      Yea, I love the varied feel of the cars and how they sway and swing and curb and have inertion and so forth. - Including the fact that Niko could just blast through the windshield would you hit something head-on. - I would even mess with an editor to tweak cars to "realistic" speeds and weights even more. Which took forever, I felt more like a developer because it's such a task, but I don't know, I enjoyed it because it was capable of doing that. - I would also throw in things like a "seatbelt"-mod, a mod that would damage your health when hitting things with a car at a certain speed, a "gasoline"-mod, dis-allow poles to be just detached from the ground, a "traffic rules" mod that would have police respond to speeding and running red lights, and more stuff, so that it would actually feel like you'd have to be more careful while driving, rather than just going crazy like a videogame-maniac. - I mean, it might sound lame and tedious, but cause and effect is what creates gameplay. - I know most people just want to go nuts and blow everything up in God MOde, but you can do that too... If I want to do that I'll play "Just Cause" or something.

    I loved GTA 4. Probably my favourite. It’s the one in the series I replayed the most. It was the most immersive game I had played since Shenmue where I felt like I was actually in New York. I used the subway, did the activities with Niko’s friends, took Niko on dates. Loved it. Loved the music, the AI and physics which were better than those found in GTA5 in my opinion, good example being how police and pedestrians react to you as the player. Cops will open fire on you in GTA5 just for looking at them for too long or standing too close and pedestrians will die with one punch😂. In GTA4 police shoot as a last resort and pedestrians actually fight back and will in some cases run away, either way they didn’t die after one punch or a push to the ground.

I mean you play as a guy who just came out of a war and is sick and tired of killing people while at the same time you just become a sociopatic maniac in free roam. OBVIOUSLY you need to have that ability in GTA but it really conflicts with the story that´s being told.

    GTA 4 is definitely my favorite. Just the core game alone. I wanted to hear every conversation. Getting friends and GF's drunk. Drunk driving them home sometimes killing them or us. Then the drive of shame picking them up at the hospital. Just some of the craziest single player moments. I really loved the world and cast. Pool with jacob, strip club with brucie or roman. The dates. Even the emails. I would read them all. It was just really hitting everything. I remember when the DLC's dropped and it was so exciting, it was like getting a new GTA. GTAv's world was fantastic but it felt pretty hollow character wise in comparison. Also The driving in 4 was really fun after the learning curve. They need a middle ground between IV and V for driving. I definitely understand why people do not like 4's driving. But 5's is just to much. Also I do not get why they toned down the physics. Man 4 had the most fun physics.

    my favorite thing about gta 4 was how realistic the driving felt. The cars felt like they had real weight and traction, something later games took away. I imagine it got complained about a lot, but me and my brother were both getting our license shortly after playing gta 4 and both attribute a lot of our ease to it to this game. GTA 4 truly taught me how to drive not even lying. I do also love the look of the city, and there is still a lot to be discovered in liberty city. I went back and played it recently and found stuff i never knew about. I wish they would port it to the nintendo switch. what a perfect place for this game that would be.

I'm being true rn, I'd always choose the character development and story development of GTA4 over GTA5, plus they didn't focus on heists, "Three leaf clover" is the only heist if remember correctly.

    A small but noticeable detail was the fact that if it rained, Niko actually reacted to it. He would hold his hand out to feel if it was raining. He would shake himself off if he got too wet. You could also see his breath during the cold spells.
    One thing I didn't like was the fact that you couldn't take Niko to the bathroom to bathe (the scurvy bastard Lol. Jk)
    I also liked how you could be whoever you wanted to be....
    From a Taxi Driver, to a homicidal maniac, to stopping by Perseus for an all black suit; spawn a FIB Buffalo; and become a tough-as-nails LCPD detective to whom cleans up the mean streets.
    So immersive is GTAIV, that it always holds a special place in my heart. Worth its weight in gold. Except for those immersive-breaking annoying friend requests. Especially in inopportune situations....
    "Niko, it's your cousin; want to go get drunk together?"
    "I can't right now cousin as I'm strapped to almost a thousand pounds of explosives right now".

      It's not brought up very often when discussing GTA these days, at least not since V came out. There's plenty of gushing over III for reinventing the open world genre, Vice City and especially San Andreas for childhood nostalgia, and V as the current game that's still actively supported by Rockstar. IV also gets a lot of shit by certain fans who think it takes itself too seriously which goes against their perception of what GTA is, and that playing a character who ultimately wants to do good conflicts with their capacity to go on crazy murder rampages.
      That said I think that's set to change very soon once more people remember just how great a game it was.

      Me too. IV has a better story, but that's just an opinion. Mostly, the physics of cars and npcs where better. The police is also better in its own way, the gunplay is better imo also. GTAV made some improvements, but it's a step back on the "fun aspect" of GTA. It's difficult to explain, I guess...

      In many ways 5 is to 4 what LA is to New York. It’s bright, it’s polished, it’s attractive but doesn’t have heart. GTA 4 was dirty, hard and was an incredible step up from the previous PS2 era. GTA5 felt like a step back, I also feel 5 was just much more mainstream, the audience was much younger and less die hard. That’s my opinion anyway.

After I took control of Nico and you could feel the weight of him and the cars when you moved or were driving compared to how floaty everything felt in the previous games I was just in awe. I still play through it every few years.
