GTA

GTA 4 the best reviewed game of all time and there's not really much left to say about it. It's really, really, really great. I haven't really gotten to fiend on it aside from the day it came out because I went out pretty much every day last week, but I thought about it constantly. I love that game as much as I imagine I would love one of my children, or like, a horse that could fly.

One thing none of the reviews seemed to mention was that GTA IV is kind of like The Sims. You meet people and have to foster relationships by taking them out drinking, playing pool, cabaret shows(!), etc. Unlike The Sims, you can't create your own character, but you can shoot people in the face for looking at you the wrong way.

It's great though, and I've only scratched the surface. Actually, when I beat the game, that'll be like scratching the surface.
