Grand Theft Auto IV

Strong, story-driven narrative

As immigrant Niko Bellic, you chase the American dream through the gritty, living metropolis of Liberty City, only to sink deeper into crime and revenge. It tells a darker, more grounded story than earlier entries while keeping the series' sharp satire.

Grand Theft Auto III

Lots to discover

The landmark that took GTA into 3D: as a silent criminal you climb the underworld of grim Liberty City, stealing cars, running jobs for mob bosses and causing mayhem whenever you like. Satirical radio stations and the freedom of its open city made it the template for the entire sandbox genre.

The Godfather

Dark, serious atmosphere

An open-world action game set in 1940s-50s New York where you rise through the Corleone family ranks by extorting businesses and taking over rival territory. Its film-faithful atmosphere and characters are the main draw.

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

Strong, story-driven narrative

As Tommy Vercetti you rise from lackey to crime lord in a neon-soaked take on 1980s Miami, with sharp satire, a sprawling city to cause chaos in, and an iconic licensed radio soundtrack.

Far Cry 3

Strong, story-driven narrative

An open tropical-island shooter where you liberate outposts by stealth or force, hunt wildlife to craft gear and grow your skills. It is anchored by a disturbing descent into madness and the unforgettable villain Vaas.

Grand Theft Auto V

Lavish presentation

A satirical crime epic set in a huge, bustling Los Santos where you switch between three very different criminals and pull off elaborate heists. Car chases, biting humor and the sprawling GTA Online sandbox make it a playground you can sink endless hours into.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

Lots to discover

As CJ you return to Los Santos and fight your way across a huge state full of gang wars, corrupt cops and absurd side activities. Vehicles, shootouts, RPG-like stats and a legendary radio soundtrack make it one of the most expansive sandbox classics.

The Getaway

Strong, story-driven narrative

A gritty gangster action game set in a faithfully recreated London, mixing third-person gunfights and car chases in a cinematic story inspired by British crime films.

Far Cry 4

Lots to discover

An open-world shooter set in the fictional Himalayan nation of Kyrat, where you liberate outposts, ride elephants, and explore the mountains by wingsuit and gyrocopter. The charismatic despot Pagan Min and the choice between two morally murky rebel leaders drive the story.
