GTA IV is a fantastic achievement that mixes the traditional free-roaming play and character-driven story with the most realistic virtual environment ever created. It even has an emotional side – relationships are more important than ever – though traditionalists needn't worry. Despite some innovations such as the GPS and mobile – the latter used to organise missions and stay in touch – GTA IV feels reassuringly familiar, albeit more polished and ambitious than ever.
The driving – still the meat of the game – has been vastly improved, with a weightiness to the vehicles and a far better sensation of suspension. Car chases and the inevitable pile up are viciously exhilarating. Characters fly through windscreens, blood is plentiful. Despite this graphically - and physically - improved depiction the carnage retains the lighter touch of previous incarnations.

  1. Virmal, A stunning fruitbowl task - and a really positive start to GCSE media -

    but I'm a bit concerned that there are only two blog posts do far. This needs to change very soon if you are going to survive on the course when the coursework starts to kick in.

    WWW: Well done, professionally presented and formatted. A great start to Media.
    WWW: A decent effort – a good choice of media text to analyse.

    EBI: All the work was present and uploaded onto the blog.
    Action: Make sure you have (as a bare minimum) Holiday Research / LIAR analysis of poster / Fruit bowl / Camera angle – shot type analysis [check others blogs to see what you ought to have]
