RE: I have been a gamer 40 years, a top 10 games list with a difference
Look how far Grand Theft Auto has come. Can't believe it used to look like that.

Yep, such a huge difference. In some ways GTA has suffered for the "progress". The first GTA was pure insane fun and I enjoyed all the way up to San Andreas it had the same sort of stylized mad action. Things changed in GTA 4 and I feel it tried to take itself too serious. Internet cafe, managing friendships and relationships etc.
GTA 5 was better than 4 but I never bothered to complete it, probably only logged about 40 hours. Then you compare it to Saints Row 3 & 4, loved those games as they had that spark of insanity present in the older GTA games
If you have not played Saints Row 3, grab it when on sale etc. Has to have one of the best introduction sequences ever, the first couple of missions let you know exactly what you are in for and it is just insane :)
I've played Saints Row 2 and it that was pretty fun. So I will definitely try out Saints Row 3.
SR 2 was really just a GTA clone. SR3 is almost a parody of GTA done oh so well. SR4 is GTA but you are a super hero :)
