5 Reasons Why You Should Play GTA 4...

[@RedGr33nBlue]

i started playing the complete edition when it was in the latest steam sale around when this video came out. first 3 days of playing and id already put 30 hours into it. EVERYTHING feels better in gta4 to me. the cars feel heavier than 5 but they dont stick to the road like glue, making them feel more realistic and rewarding to pull off near misses/stunt jumps. the story is so much better. Niko has that 2000s suave and charm that makes me like him and his friends (roman, packie, francis, manny, jimmy p) much more. just feels like a gritty simulation of what things were like when the game came out.

[@Stumme-40203]

My parents had got me GTA 4 for Christmas 2014 when I was in 5th because they didn’t want me to play 5 thinking this one wasn’t as bad. I only really got a couple missions in because I got a PS4 a few weeks later with my Christmas and birthday money. I ended up playing GTA V in 2017ish and never came back to GTA 4 until this year, starting over from the beginning. Personally I find 4 better than 5. Best story, physics, and driving. The only places where I think 5 is better is graphics and gunplay.

[@kang6914]

@@Stumme-40203 that’s hilarious your parents thought gta 4 wasn’t as bad content wise as 5 but yeah I’ve heard good things about 4 it seems to be the one that went more under the radar compared to the other main gta titles but has become a lot more appreciated over the years. My personal favorite GTA is still San Andreas even over 5 but I’m still very curious to see what 4 is like. I had it until I sold my ps3 in 2014 as well. I got a PS4 and GTA 5 shortly after.

Interesting fact the physics for gta 4 were built for the ps3 specifically which is why they were so advanced in 2007 the ps3 cpu destroyed any pc on the market the 360 was powerful as well and they had to dial back the physics for the next game because it was so brutal on systems and with the online mode the gta 4 physics would have been to much to run

[@Volkaer]

Did you download the Steam version? Do you know how it compared to the original as people are saying they removed a whole bunch of stuff? I've got my boxed version here but struggling with their ancient activation DRM that no longer works - so wondering if getting Steam version is worth it.

[@trutatj]

@@Volkaer hey man, i bought the gta 4 complete edition on steam while it was on sale last month. Works like a charm but you need the following mods: - DXVK (improves performance drastically as this game's port runs like shit) - FusionFix (fixes a lot of the issues that come with this game) - Radio Restoration (brings back the old radio stations that they removed in this version) - Console Visuals (this mod brings console visuals to the game, as the PC visuals look rlly trash) First 2 are mandatory, the last 2 are just personal preference, but I'm having a great vanilla gta 4 experience using just these 4 mods :) The only problem is that a lot of mods don't work on the new version, sure you can downgrade your game but I'd recommend keeping it up to date as more and more mods will become the norm on the Complete Edition version. Getting the steam version is worth it, especially if it's on sale, I got it for just $6 LOL

[@Matt-hb7tu]

gta 4 was the first gta I played the story right through. Usually I would play enough to unlock the map and just have fun with cheats

[@sevenwhatuknow]

Everytime we've been in Vice City, everything is upbeat with wacky caharcters. When in San Andreas, its also upbeat but feels dangerous in a way. But when we're in Liberty City its always dark and gritty, even back in GTA3. It feels like a random pedestrian will pop outta nowhere and stab you at any given moment. Rockstar did a great job of capturing the essence of Florida, California and New York.

[@JR-kx3jr]

The only thing is that higher framerates break the physics in the last mission, so you have to limit it to 30fps at that point.

[@Volkaer]

Honestly, I always felt that GTA4 was superior to GTA5 in every aspect - with the exception of the map (the scale and size of the map in GTA5 just blew 4 out of the water). I'm actually trying to install it back now - though GTA4's launcher and installation DRM is horrendous - since half the servers and services are offline / have been abandoned now. I know Steam has a version as well now, though I heard a lot of people are saying it has a lot of features missing / removed. Might just have to download a cracked / pirated version for a game I have a boxed copy of XD

[@Tails7212]

Just give us a city space on the same level as this one in GTA 6, but make it 3x bigger.

[@L321]

that would be incredible.

[@keithposter5543]

Playing it now on Xbox Series. Sadly I bought it just before it was reduced more but still worth it. The physics are way better than 5 - took a little while to get used to the roll when driving but really does add an extra dimension - it's more rewarding and there's more tension when driving. The story is great - only wish that the figures in the cut scenes looked a bit more realistic, but the script overcomes that after a while. I hope they adda bit more weight to the physics in 6.

GTA IV is amazing. GTA V had some great ideas but its been ground into dust. I appreciated all the experimentation and such the developers did with GTA V......for the first 4 or 5 years. GTA IV had a unique mood in the series, more in line with games of the decade such as Getaway. Operating the vehicles well took practice, which was annoying at first but honestly felt rewarding once you mastered the physics of it. Also, Ballad of Gay Tony didn't get enough attention. Luis and his ridiculous friends are endlessly entertaining.
