GTA IV overrated?

I remember when GTA IV was first released. With a Metacritic score of 98, it had a tad bit of hype to live up to. Like most people, I was outside my local Gamestop at 11:00 PM impatiently waiting for my copy. The only other time I’ve anticipated a game this much was San Andreas. There was nothing I wanted more then to get home and pop in the disc. As soon as I heard Roman shout, ”Niko, my cousin!’, it hit me. This is the game I’ve been thinking about every time I went to sleep for years. I was astonished at the amount of detail put into this masterpiece. Never once did I doubt GTA IV was a 10/10, but other people just might have.
