1. Grand Theft Auto IV
X360, PS3 * Spring 2008
Why you should care: The epic Grand Theft Auto IV takes place in a reworked New York with an Eastern European protagonist and promises a grittier, more mature take on the franchise's trademark open-world, crime-based drama. For this fourth episode, Rockstar promises the near-impossible, claiming, "You can basically play the game from beginning to end without a single load screen." In addition, players can also expect fineries such as redone weapon aiming system (with blind firing) and a most rocktastic music soundtrack.
Protagonist Nico Bellic can toss people off of buildings, hot-wire cars, ride in taxis or buses, and fly helicopters onto just about any building. Rockstar has also promised Grand Theft Auto will go online for this iteration, with 16-player matches and downloadable extra episodes for the Xbox 360 version that may take up to 10 hours to complete.
Why you shouldn't: Let's face it: you probably should care about this one if you like games.
