GTA 4: File size, cheat codes, available platforms, and more

Modified Oct 01, 2020 05:14 GMT

GTA 4 was the biggest creative left-turn for Rockstar ever since they revamped the franchise with GTA III after the original Grand Theft Auto and the sequel.

GTA 4 chose to go down a much different route than its predecessor, opting for a grounded tone and one that could potentially scare away fans. However, fans weren't exactly deterred with the bold new direction of the GTA franchise.

A number of games in that particular console generation (PS3, Xbox 360) attempted to go "darker and grittier." In a slew of extremely bland titles, GTA 4 was much more nuanced in its execution, and the tone wasn't merely just for aesthetics.

GTA 4 is one of the most beloved entries in the franchise and still is the highest-rated game in the franchise on Metacritic.

For PC players, the game is available on Steam as "Grand Theft Auto IV- The Complete Edition." This edition contains not only the base game of GTA 4, but also the Episodes from Liberty City DLC as well.

The EFLC DLC included two extremely popular games that did well to expand the lore and add more character to Liberty City:

The Ballad of Gay Tony
The Lost and Dammned

The Complete Edition, as a result, is one comprehensive GTA experience and is definitely one of the most value-for-money deals on Steam.
