I thought the part where you had to keep feeding CJ after a while in San Andreas was pretty annoying, but hey, they were attempting to make it real, same goes for the exercise. I did like the customizable fighting styles, though.
In GTA IV, although I haven't played it much, I've found something I don't like. I don't like the new driving system, the turning, IMO, is shit. But they've made running from the cops harder, which can be annoying for some people, but it sorta gives you the thrill of a real police chase.
I'm pretty sure everyone who's played both GTA games will find what they like and dislike about the games.

Quote from SpazzWe're talking about games, Raffi, not softwares. Granted a game later in the series would have better graphics than its predecessors, but graphics don't make a game. A lot of times, sequel games end up being nothing more than a reincarnation of the previous game, but with heightened graphics.
That's what I meant (though it also goes with softwares, lol). It's normally 'better' but sometimes it gets 'worse' in not just graphics.

GTA IV was epic.
I was a bit dissapointed with the lack of customisation. The only thing you could do after completing it was odd side-missions and going out with friends.
It was also really easy and short.
GTA:SA
Good game. Alot to do. Nothing really bad to say about it, haven't played it for a while so i've probably forgot anything it may have failed with.
But, I'm going to go with GTA IV, just because I really liked it. Could've been alot better, but, it was still a great game.

Quote from SSJBryandoGta san Is overall better in my oppinioon. of course the grafics and Physics are better in Gta4. But give ONE good reason Except those 2 why gta4 is better. but im only 30% and it still is amazing. but not a 10/10
Gta san, you could custimize your character, pimp cars. Buy houses, buy stripclubs. the cheats where FUN AS HELL. Mega punch, flying cars, all that stuff., Riding trains, highjaking trains, bigger maps. Im pretty sure they wont make that in this game, cause it can ruine the Realisticness.
And the missions in San where better.
but still there both nice games.
@spazz, im not wining. its just one of those things san had but Gta4 didn't thats all. I didn't say it was bad.,
@Rafeh T_T thats really not true, 90% still thinks final fantasy 7 is better then, 8, 9, 10, 11, or 12. As well as kingdom hearts.
Your grammar is ****ing terrible.

Lets see, the driving in GTAIV is more realistic and not that hard once you practice a little, the missions in San Andreas are NOT better, I'm actually entertained by the ones in GTAIV, the cheats aren't too over the fucking top [LOLFUCKINGTANK], the shooting system is better, IMO.
Let's see, there's 4 reasons, so FUCK YOU MISTER AWESOME-DREAS.
Also, 80% of statistics are made up on the spot. Which pretty much means, you probably just made that up, and didn't actually search it. OR... You read it on the internet like 6 years ago and added stuff to it.

I like all the GTA games. I started off with Vice City Stories on my PSP, and then I played San Andreas and lV at my friend's house.
They're all great.
They're all great.

lol, sorry for my grammar. And yeah, gta4 is probably better. But its I don't know. San was a bit more fun, in the beginning at least. custumizing, Gravity shit, flying car <3 trains, but yea >_> I guess <_< .

In GTA IV, they completely improved the shooting and cover system. You can basically switch from the normal third person of GTA games into an FPS game, hiding behind cars and free-aiming. The story was MUCH better than San Andreas as well. They could have basically made a movie off of the storyline, it made you want to keep playing to find out what happens. And you saying that San Andreas missions were better is pretty dumb. You've only played 30% of the game, so you haven't gotten to any of the really fun missions. I found the missions in SA to be really repetitive. It was almost always either a drive-by or a turfwar. Oh, and the driving system isn't all that hard once you get used to it.
Plus the online is amazingly fun. It seems like all you want in a game is cheats and being able to kill people without paying attention to the storyline. And in San Andreas, you could barely go into any stores. In GTA IV, the map is much smaller but you can go into almost every store and there's much more to do.

No, Dont get me wrong. I like the game very very much. but like, in SAN I didn't play missions at all, The whole thing I was doing was, Cheating and 2 player cheating and stuff =P Free roaming. well I did do some missions
but you guys are right, shame for the costumizing and stuff. but yeah this is better overal. =] I choose GTA4 as well. now that I hear the stuff, you guys are right.
Im gonna play story mode a bit more now.

Both are fine to me

Quote from SpazzWow, that was stupid. Granted, GTA IV is noted as the best of the series, but if you're going to use the logic that if a game is the newest installment to the series, that makes it the best, then hop inline with all the other mindless pop culture dwellers who don't know anything.
And SSJ, stop whining about GTA IV not having planes. Planes aren't even useful for a New York environment. Not having planes would be a good point to make if San Andreas and Liberty City were basically the same type of terrain, but their not. So get over it. And remember this series is called "Grand Theft Auto". Aeronautical vehicles are not an essential, really.
I think got served :(
eh, what do you think would happen when its a gy called "spazz"
:P

What do you think will happen when YOU GO OFFTOPIC. >:[
I stand with GTAIV. I just hope it comes out for PC. Then we can force someone to make an epic zombie mod. That would be AWESOME.

GTA IV
**** its so good. I can't believe I'm not playing it right now, the only thing I don't like about it is the lack of cheats. That was one of my favorite parts of the series. Other than that 4 is way better.
