Had fun writing this, and the help from my friend (the dude who did the sexy headings) was great, helped me to maybe put more effort into it. It's got Lost And Damned everywhere on it, but is only mentioned twice

GTA IV is something I compleatly disagree with you on. This whole bribe thing is, lets face it, a conspiracy theory made up in your head.

Why would R* even think about doing that anyway? Stick GTA on the title and its gonna sell like crazy. Even if it did get god awful reviews people are still gonna buy it, and when you go on sites such as play.com and amazon.co.uk and read customer reviews, they seem pretty damm satisfied with it. At the end of the day, GTAIV is a good game - you not liking it don't make it any different.

At the end of the day everyone is entitled to their own opinion, personally I love GTA and thought it was one of the greatest things to hit this generation of gaming.

I guess it was just what different people were expecting.

Good reviews are based on too sides to the story, why it's good and why it's bad. You've just ripped the this so much that its not fair. It's very clear you're not happy with the game, but overall this is a very one sided review.

Actually I did a "Why GTA IV Is The Best Game Ever", so I'm not a one-sided reviewer, the rant itself is one-sided, except from the last sentence.

So you're saying that GTA IV deserved a perfect 10 from IGN? A perfect 10 from OPM UK? It's not even a conspiracy theory, most game publishers and developers pay off the mainstream critics to give them a perfect score. If Rockstar had slapped GTA on a dog turd, it would still sell well - but if a reviewer gave the dog turd a perfect score - it'd sell better.

Oh and let's face it, those customer reviewers are... well... just people with bad taste, or people who are exactly like most LBP players, they only use the 1st and 5th star.
It's not a review... it's a rant which is barely structured and has little to no resemblance to the actual pictures in it.

I agree with that but after GTA IV I doubt as many people will buy the dlc for it,
