When are niggers going to accept that this game is severly overrated even while being completely overshadowed by the games directly before and after it? Its grey and boring to look at, the combat is awful, and the world looks the same wherever you go.
>But muh story!
Having a story isn't much help when the gameplay and graphics suck ass tards. Cope harder that your game is one of the weakest in the franchise and people only like it because it was their first GTA.
Overrated? or Masterpiece?

Never played VC or 5.
replace gta with cyberpunk and ill agree with you
keep seething crybaby
Nah it's good.
IV is a massive step back from San Andreas, you’re very retarded if you think it’s better somehow
who remembers randomly shooting your gun in Hove Beach and all the Slavs start shooting at you and then each other. there was always a guy with a shotgun for no reason.
In terms of quantity of content? Yes, it is a step down. But quality? It's so much better.
>Overrated? or Masterpiece?
Underrated
This.
It's certainly special, it's not the golden boy like GTAO, or the cool son like SA, but it has so much work put into it that it can be seen in every frame.
V is still a better game though.
Nice reddit speak faggot
>V is still a better game though.

GTA 4 was a fucking mess, what the fuck did you play.
SA was the last one where it was still goofy enough to laugh at, yet still had enough there to drive you back into the characters and story. 4 just had stupid performance issues for so fucking long on the PS3 and 360, expansions that were better than the base game, and had a meh wrap up. Only reason most people like 4 more is due to it being the first one they got and ever experienced multiplayer on.
>GTA 4 driving
literal dogshit
It was okay. Not the best, but not the worst either. I’d give it like an 8/10.
Underrated. Its way better than 5.

Ah, so you were filtered like a pleb.

Confirmed clueless SAbaby who never picked up CTW
>>GTA 4 driving
>literal dogshit
>she got filtered by the driving
Fucking how
If you ever played 3, VC, or SA you know driving was far better. Not to mention starting out in SA your driving skill is pretty shit so hairpin turns are near impossible.
4 was just like "WACKY JELLO PHYSICS"
>CTW
For the longest time it was only on the PSP so didn't bother with it till long after
Own 4 on the PS3 and PC, driving was just all around dogshit compared to prior games and other open world games at the time. I still played it a fuck load but driving is legitimately the worst in the series unless you're just going to "muh whacky physics XD SWING SET AMIRITE?!?!"
4 is only regarded so highly by people because the stories in the expansions were legitimately better than the base game.
Online was comfy. Freemode online on the airport is peak comfy vidya. Privite server has lots of players now too.
>4 is only regarded so highly by people because the stories in the expansions were legitimately better than the base game.
The reason why its so regarded now is because it has the best gameplay, the best characters, the storyline and the most consistent tone. If I want good side content I'll play CTW or TLATD/TBOGT. The only reason anyone props up SA is for the nostalgia.
user, you literally got filtered by your own lack of skill in GTA driving.
>best gameplay
Ah yes BASED crowbat video proved this to you yeah? Framerate issues exist to this day, gunplay is meh, driving is okay at best, the sound track is stupid forgettable unless we talk about the expansions.
>best characters
Nikko is only tolerable for the first half of the game
> the most consistent tone
Which really wasn't what GTA was up until that point, it has always been homage to movies, tropes of the time, and the like.
Driving wasn't fun on consoles due to bad frame issues and whacky physics well into the life of GTA, a game around stealing cars and shit. Driving isn't fun when your game dips into ~12-15fps and physics are wonky.
The vehicle customization and gang wars from SA were cool, but nothing else was lost in IV that wasn't dead weight. The massive improvements in every other aspect more than make up for those two features.
I played IV wishing it was more like SA. I played V wishing it was more like IV.
4>5
fact
youtu.be
>Ah yes BASED crowbat video proved this to you yeah?
Nah, I made that decision after going from SA to IV. GTA SA had shit gameplay even for a PS2 game in 2004.
> the sound track is stupid forgettable unless we talk about the expansions.
Jazz, electronica, metal, pop rock, the radio station is good and has character outside of being a Greatest-Hits compilations.
>Which really wasn't what GTA was up until that point, it has always been homage to movies, tropes of the time, and the like.
Nah, GTA 3 had a consistent tone, VC had a consistent tone, LCS, VCS they had a consistent tone. The odd man out is SA which drops the gangbanger tone midway through the game. Why do you think so many people make memes about the first half of the game?
Its a masterpiece and still is
>The odd man out is SA which drops the gangbanger tone midway through the game.
Yeah because the stories it references also go that way...
>Why do you think so many people make memes about the first half of the game?
because it was fun and memorable, not NIKO LET US BOWL! x9001
>I played IV wishing it was more like SA.
The things from SA I wanted in IV were bikes, more clothing stores, tanks, and more weapons.
>Yeah because the stories it references also go that way...
>because it was fun and memorable, not NIKO LET US BOWL! x9001
Because it was the best part about the story. Toreno was dope, but nobody gives a fuck about Jizzy or T-Bone. They liked Ryder and Big Smoke. That's why the game declines after they leave and you get dropped in the backwoods.
every GTA III on is a masterpiece
