Grand Theft Auto IV

Rockstar North · 2008 · Action, Adventure

Spike VGA Game of the Year 2008

Liberty City at its most grounded, grey and unexpectedly sad.

Niko Bellic's immigrant story traded San Andreas excess for weight, physics and regret. Still missing from modern PlayStation consoles, to nobody's satisfaction.
