So, will Grand Theft Auto IV make video game history? It seems poised to take every record so far, and the hype continues to build. Exclusive Xbox episodic content seem to assure that even after the last mission is finished, the story won't be. The addition of multiplayer for first time ever in a GTA will undoubtedly extend the game's longevity and replay value. Some speculate that it could even take on Halo 3 & Call of Duty 4's Live dominance. Only time will tell as the Xbox Nation counts down to release.
