If you’re a video game studio, how do you follow up one of the best video games ever made in “GTA: San Andreas”? If you’re Rockstar, you follow it up with the best video game ever made. I know that ever since the gaming media got their hands on “Grand Theft Auto IV” a couple of weeks ago the superlatives have been flying faster and harder than a hail of bullets, but I can’t in good conscience not join the chorus after having logged over 24 hours of play having only had the game in my hands for five days.
