There are plenty of other people that are in agreement with me, everything that GTA does another game does it better period.
what other game produces a realistic yet flowing (in a game way) city full of pedestrians and other vehicles going about their daily activities in such a way that it immerses you in the world?

and dont say saints row, do not say saints row.


and this topic is handy for me too, i was thinking of getting a ps3 now i can afford it but now i know not to as no games anyone has mentioned make me want to get one!

period.

ps it's uh...pretty well acknowledged that GTA is the best of the open world sandbox games. no one with any sense is really going to argue that.

Yeah GTA4 isn't my favorite game ever or anything but like if you could find one person anywhere on the internet other than RPGamer and the comments section at IGN that agrees that GTA4 is a qualifiably horrible game I would pay you real world money!  Also I think maybe your surround system sucks?  GTA4 has weak sound ouput, but it's a lot louder than your average hollywood movie (my stereo for example is good for video games at 12, movies need to be turned up to 18 or 19, and GTA4 needs to be turned up to 16) so I also think you are making this up too.

Like seriously man are you just trying to be counter-countercultural look at me I'm way more unique than you guys or something?  If so you can borrow my eyeliner it will help with the persona you're trying to create =\

Goto Gametrailers or NeoGaf or NexGenWars or various other forums I can get a friend of mine to sign up and he'll tell you the same thing! I'm actually at his house now...

And no I'm not trying to be countercultural (which isn't even a word) I'm just stating my opinion.

Okay I respect your opinion but I'm really really surprised that you have this particular opinion.

Okay then, I'm going to break up the GTA4 talk for a bit (as I haven't yet played that, looking forward to it though).

I have a PS3 and as far as exclusives go I've quite enjoyed Ratchet and Clank, Uncharted and Heavenly Sword.  The latter is VERY short though so beware of that.

If you have a 360 I would get COD4 on that preferably but it's a great game either way.

Assassin's Creed I did enjoy but it's very repetitive so you may be bored of it fairly quickly.

ahahaha you are so dumb.  i hate a lot of games but it's pretty obvious you're just doing it to be edgy here or something.  whoaaaa a game with a plethora of gameplay mechanics and options doesn't do all of them as well as games that are devoted to said respective gameplay mechanics?  ljfdfkldsk gta 4 why can't you be a better shooter than call of duty 4 while at the same time being a better racing game than gran turismo????  seriously dude this is KIND OF A GIVEN.  the controls are clunky sometimes, especially when it comes to precision, but not horrible (thehunter do you know what this word means???) and the cover system is also kind of clunky so you're not wrong about that, but everything else you said is just objectively untrue.  BAD SOUND?  what?  no, man, that's not even a little bit true.  you're seriously just making up reasons to dislike a legitimately well made game and most of them are bogus.

Youre the idiot here man.  It's like how some people don't like Wii games with motion control, or how I know people that hate Ratchet and Clank because they think it should be more of a platformer.

And my name is theHunter because Monster Hunter is my favorite PSP game and I play it religiously.

Also, I don't have to like a game that I don't think is any good.

hey you realize that wishing a game had more platformer elements does not make the game bad and how that's a really bad analogy right??


also to clarify i was asking if you knew what the word HORRIBLE meant not your name, because you are clearly using it in an inappropriate context here, as would the dude who would come in and say "all wii games are horrible because of the motion sensor controller."  are you really trying to use these two dumb analogies to make your opinion seem valid?  it's not working because both of the examples you cited are pretty dumb too sooooo

I guess opinion is frowned upon here?  If someone said to me that they thought... say... Zelda on the Wii was worse than Zelda on the GC I would disagree but I wouldnt call them "stupid" because I'm not insecure about my gaming likes and dislikes.  I won't call someone "stupid" because someone said "Recommend me some PS2 RPGs" and someone said... "Suikoden 4" or "Atlier Iris" because I didnt like them.  I wouldnt recommend them but if you like them... what can I say? LOL at you because I think your opinion is stupid?

i think the important thing to note is that all opinions are not equally intelligent or defensible.  you don't seem to be differentiating between an acceptable, reasonable opinion ("i felt the controls of this game made it worse than its gamecube counterpart") and an irrational, sensationalist one ("this game sucks due to a myriad of reasons that don't exist or aren't nearly game-ruining enough to make the game itself horrible").  seriously man OPINIONS yeah you can have them but that doesn't prevent the opinion itself from being dumb.  it'd be like saying "well well well he can say he likes pie better than cake but i can't say all jews should live on an island somewhere away from civilization??? heh.... i guess gw doesn't care for opinions"

although to be fair if i suggested either of those two games i would be okay with you calling me stupid.

... I guess bro.  I went into the game thinking "Wow this game is an amalgamation of al ot of great systems in an open world setting."  But what I got was "Wow this game is an amalgamation of a lot of great systems that are totally dumbed down!"

IMO, Why would I want to play a game with different systems when I can just play a game with what I want thats good at it?

Can we stop arguing over a difference of opinion? Start a new topic called "Bitching about who likes and dislikes GTA4". There's important information to relay to this young pup!
All the above mentioned games are great. Really if you want something that is surefire to have a consistant gaming community, check out Call of Duty 4; tons of people play it. I'll avoid saying GTA4, since it's ...mentioned... above^. Some other games you might look into are Fight Night, Viking, Rainbow Six Las Vegas 2, Virtua Fighter 5, and Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.

No.

(also, you can say GTA4 is "horrible", and I can call 1984 a horrible book. Doesn't mean its right, in fact pretty sure if you went up to any literature guy, and told them 1984 was a horrible book, you'd get laughed at.)

Yes.

It is a must get if you like console FPS and have a PS3.

1984 was an awesome book.  I read it in the 10th grade.  Because of that book and the Great Gatsby I got into reading.

I do however agree and think that GTA4 is a good game but what had me a bit confused was the fact that with all the money in the game, my friend accumulated about a million or something, you couldn't have much to do with it, couldn't buy cars or houses which was possible in san andreas, you could however spend it on clothes but no jewellery or tattoos but I guess it's part of the package since it  wouldn't make sense to see Niko with all the bling bling going to do a job.
EDIT: Get Uncharted: Drake's Fortune it is an action adventure game and I think it's worth buying for the PS3.
