Why do alot of people hate GTA4?

I honestly don't see why people say it's dissapointing, and a bad game in general.I think its pretty fun. What do you think?Why do alot of people hate GTA4?
Thats stupid. Its a good gameWhy do alot of people hate GTA4?

I agree, but ive seen alot of ''worst 5 games'' threads and alot of people have GTA4 somewhere in there, so i just wanna know what people dont like about it
I've also wondered that
It's not San Andreas 2.Anyways, I liked the game, but it was a serious GTA with less features and content from other GTAs, almost feels like a remake of GTA III.
Story was terrible, characters had bad fake accents, no customization of cars or clothing, lack of stuff to buy, cant fly planes, you cant buy houses, and being confined to a city after having an entire ''state'' to play in in San Andreas. Well this is why i didnt like it.

Fair enough. Even if its not SA2, i found Niko to be VERY likable and i loved his story, by the end i really felt sorry for him.
I also don't get why people like SA better then 4
i loved it and how they beefed up the GTA exp in most areas the MP is decent the story was pretty good and the graphics are great. Idk why people hate on it either but hey all great games have many haters it just comes with being the best i guess. Only thing that disapointed me about GTA4 was lack of planes because i used to love flying them in san andreas but flying helipcopters is still fun.
Its not a bad game.It just doesn't have that pure fun that San Andreas had.Too much attention to unimportant details ruined it, if you ask me. I'd much rather have had a jetpack, or a driving tests or anything rather than the stupid Internet to waste your time on.And all thosecompletely pointlessalley's? Why?There's just so much that San Andreas had that GTAIV didn't, and there's no excuse for it. All the things that GTAIV added didn't help the gameplay, other than thecover system.Also, the environment became boring.There was slight differences here and there, but going from city to desert to suburbs or whatever inSan Andreas wasgood fun.The multiplayercould have alsobeen so much better.It was just disappointing in so many ways. It felt like they focused too much on setting and stupid details, than on making the game really FUN.And to add, I also didn't like how the game had a 'blurred' look to it. In San Andreas, you could turn that off, but not with GTAIV. It made the game look bad, if you ask me.

I missed the house buying strengths of vice city and certain aspects of san andreas, but it was good game.Could have been worse than it was.
Because it's popular, and it's koooool to hate on popular things.
Fair enough. I do agree with some points made (no planes, no customizable vehicles) but i dont think that really drags down the game

lol
I thought it was ok, I thought the city was pretty boring compared to the other GTA games and cover/lock-on made it too easy for me.
It's because it's realisticThey were sick of being a game labeled ''kiddie'' and went about making a game that made sense. Something that had the story and the players all tied togetherSome people are upset that San Andreas was the last ''over the top'' game and that's fine.I prefer real storytelling over the San Andreas style where it was all activities and no story and no charactersNow there's Saint's Row for the people who don't want story and just want fluff and activities and GTA for people who actually want a cohesive story and actual plot lines that you have to play a part ofI don't see the problem actually

Well this is why i didnt like it.[/QUOTE]i will admit i miss some of that stuff customizing cars was cool but then this is gta you couldnt really use it unless you wanted to lose it. Buying houses was cool too but then again you really dont spend anytime in them they just give you different places to save GTA4 does this for you automatically if you think bout through the story. GTA4 is a good size i mean san andreas def bigger but its not the size how you use it. One thing i wish they had kept is the RPG elements but i didnt miss that too much. I think most of those features were removed for good reason they must have wanted to streamline the exp. I still loved the game though.

Well I think the reason is there are two type of sandbox games and gamers. The first is the one that tries to give you a serious story and is more realistic (GTA 4). The second is the over the top action where you do things that would never happen in real life (Saints Row). Neither is better than the other it is just that different people prefer different things. Oh and BTW, to all you people complaining about planes, how often do you see them flying around in New York? And about the size of San Andreas, look at the size of GTA IV and the size of SA where it wasn't just open desert and you could actually do things there.
The story is so unimportant in the GTA games. None of them, not even San Andreas had a real 'engaging' story. If you think that is a good story, then you've probably never seen a good movie.GTA is all about FUN. Being a video game, that is not a bad thing. GTAIV was far too focused on story and completely unimportant details. They forgot what made people like the game in the first place.
