GTA IV Review (IGN: 10/10)
IGN - April 25, 2008
Submitted by lstormy10 (294) at 3:24PM PST on April 25, 2008
"Grand Theft Auto IV is just as big a leap forward [as GTA III], though perhaps in subtler ways, and sets a new benchmark for open-world games. Everything in GTA IV works in harmony. The story would be nothing without the city; the city gains realism from the physics engine; the physics compliment the improved AI; the AI would make no sense without the new cover system. And on and on. There is no one major weak aspect."

GTA IV GameSpy Review (5/5 for both versions)
GameSpy - April 27, 2008
Submitted by Tyrantt00 (825) at 10:46AM PST on April 27, 2008
"Although its got plenty of excellent features, it's ultimately the storytelling that makes it an instant classic, a game unlike any we've played before. As is the case with many great books and movies, you'll want to know what happens to the characters after the game ends, and one can't help hoping that all of their American Dreams comes true."

1apujanata posted on Grand Theft Auto IV (Xbox 360) at 4:07PM PST on March 11, 2009. RE: Grand Theft Auto IV Moves 13 Million Copies@PhilHarrision,
Probably better # for PS3 from Europe and Japan, the area where PS3 userbase are bigger than X360. There are differences of about 1.3 - 1.5 Million between X360 and PS3 version in US, based on NPD.
There is also a factor of, for example : Actual split is 52(X360):48(PS3) which can be legally translated into "approximately 50/50". Same thing can happen with 54.5(X360):45.5(PS3). With 54.5:45.5, there are about 9% difference between X360 and PS3, which with 13 Million x 9% = 1.12 Million differences.
The other factor is that the info is coming from CFO, not product manager, so the figure could be categorized as "If I recalled it correctly", since there is a possibility that the CFO didn't really remember user split, and he just wanted to have some figure thrown out as answers (better compared to "I don't know, I'll get back to you later" response).[ Oracle ] [ Level 30 ] [ Rank: 14935 ]bids
