This is insane. A perfect row of tens. They did not do that with any game on IGN in the three years I have been on the site. This is insane. I have seen SO many reviews from the site and never seen a 10. The only other game that got a ten that I can think of is Ocarina of Time. WOW.

A "10" is not a score we give out very often. In fact, the last time we gave a 10 to a console game was Soul Calibur in 1999. A 10 doesn't mean a game is perfect -- it means a game is pushing boundaries, expanding a genre, and doing many things to a level so far above and beyond its competitors that they overshadows any flaws. Certainly, GTA IV has some issues, the most noticeable being the occasional flaw in the cover system, but there are many more pieces of GTA IV that are better than anything I've seen from a game in the past decade. We don't give 10s often -- just to games that merit the score.
Now, I was expecting Grand Theft Auto 4 to be a good game, but wow. Not this good. Check out ign's review here.
