Probably the mother of all popular free roam genre, Grand Theft Auto has been one of the most controversial, but iconic and genre-defining games of gaming history. There have been games and then there have been outstanding games, but Rockstar has always given special treatment to GTA.
The latest version promises a lot of changes with the first trailer just saying "Things will be different". The story follows the life of one, Niko, in Liberty City, Rockstar's version of New York. But this time around the story is not one of 'Rags to Riches' but 'from Rags to slightly better rags'. Grand Theft Auto 4's engine has received a whole lot of updates.
The graphics have been upped by a huge factor and the unique gameplay elements have furthered the non-linear free roam mode of the title in a much bigger way. GTA4 is one title we'll be keeping a tight eye on. It's release was due last year in October, however we haven't even seen any preview builds already, in India.
