Grand Theft Auto 4


If you have nothing do, or just want to kill time. You should go out and get Grand Theft Auto IV. In Grand Theft Auto IV you can do almost anything you want; that is because it is a "Free Roam" game. A "Free Roam" game is where you can go anywhere and do anything; there are no restrictions to stop you. If you just want to cruise around in a fast car and not follow the story-line, you can do that. If cruising isn’t your thing you can go around killing anyone you see, but be careful of the police for they will be after you if you commit a crime. Plus there are 4 different islands that you can cause havoc in. Other then that GTA 4 has a wide assortment of vehicles and weapons. There vehicle choices range from a Station Wagon to an altered version of a Ferrari. As for there weapons they consist of: grenades, pistols, sub-machine guns, machine guns, snipers, and even rocket launchers.

The best part of the game is the online play. When you go online you have the choice of playing ranked matches, unranked matches, or the notorious free mode. In ranked matches you can play different game types such as racing or death match (which is basically people killing each other.), to get points which advances your rank so players know not to mess with you. Unranked is very similar to ranked matches, the only difference is that you don’t get any points for playing. In Free mode you can basically do whatever you want; you can go around on killing sprees (which is basically a craving of mass murder), do drive-bys, or race with your friends. An interesting feature while playing online is that if you kill a "Rockstar" developer it gives a new costume that you can wear. The costume is of a Zombie wearing a yellow Speedo with a "Rockstar" symbol on it. All in all this game gives you so much freedom that half the time you don’t know what to want to do. So if you are looking waste your time and have nothing to do. Go buy Grand Theft Auto IV, I promise you that you will not be disappointed.
