GameNTrain Author Simon Marshal writes: As far as gaming series go, gamers normally have fonder memories of the games which preceded the latest release. Everyone reminisces about the wonderful mechanics of Assassin’s Creed II compared to Assassin’s Creed III and the same goes for franchises such as Dead Space and Bioshock. With one of the largest releases this generation in Grand Theft Auto V, why has it become so popular to think of Grand Theft Auto IV as being a terrible game which everyone hated? What has happened over the past 5 years for the community to suddenly turn its back on something which was considered a masterpiece at the time? For me, the game did lack something that was clear in previous Grand Theft Auto games but it is still an excellent game and should not be dismissed so easily now that the sequel has arrived.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

Grand Theft Auto 4 is an important game for Rockstar, not least because it was the first title in the franchise to use the newly created RAGE engine.
GTA IV is one of the greatest games in this generation, it has the best main character in the series imo, the best atmosphere(along with vice city) sunsets along with the journey FM is breathtaking, the best vehicular physics mayhem/crashes/stunts in the series(gta v was disappointing in that aspect), city was absolutely stunning and brilliant and it had that fresh nextgen shock value
yes gta v is overall better but IV had that amazing unforgettable atmosphere
i think GTA IV haters are mostly casual player that don't appreciate pure quality and just want more stuff to do regardless of its quality and want easy almost on rails driving mechanics
Its not new. GTA4 bored me. Worst in the series.
Never had any problem with any GTA. And never will.
Sudden?
I always hated it, for one I'm tired of
Uninspired remakes of fucking new york/liberty city in like 20 gta games
