GTA

Mostly, the world of video games escapes the attention that TV and Movies get. These day we spend just as much time wasting time with video games as anything else, but a lot less ink gets spilled on the subject. But the release of Grand Theft Auto IV, that all changes. Nothing gets attention like the GTA games. Ultra-fun and ultra-violent, these games are wide-open sandboxes of violence and mayhem. Thus are responsible for the end of civilization as we know it. Sadly, I will lagging behind the coming anarchy, because the PC version seems lacking right now. But Kotaku is filled with good GTA coverage. I also recommend GamePolitics for great coverage of all the moral preening and messed up politics that go with GTA.
