Grand Theft Auto 4 VS Saints Row

The best-selling freestyle crime series changes platforms for the first time in years with Grand Theft Auto IV.

In this comparison you clearly see huge improvements in GTA 4's graphics. The pedestrians are actually moving around with a purpose compared to previous games where the only use they had was to entertain us when we run them down.

In news that will not please Mayor Michael Bloomberg, the new Liberty City is directly modeled on four of New York's five boroughs and part of suburban New Jersey. Each section has been renamed--Brooklyn is now Broker, for example--as have the iconic city's various landmarks. As shown in the trailer, the MetLife Building is now the GetaLife Building, and the Statue of Liberty is now called the Statue of Happiness. The city will also have a smaller land mass than San Andreas, but apparently hardly a speck of open land, with each inch being an imitation of New York City's jam-packed environs.
