GTA gets the vote... Been playing it since it was a simple top down, car jacking PC game Loved 3 for what it was and did for the genre at the time, 4 was good but I never want to hear "Eh...Nico" ever again 5 was just that good...online was ok but for me the story was like an insane version of Trailer Park Boys Saying that, Saints Row 1&2 were awesome games...GTA but more of an arcade feel to gameplay, 3+ have been a little over the top but where R* is about the realism (ish), SR just tosses the rules out the window Get GTA if ya like a more 'reality' based storyline and more realistic game controls Get SR if you just want to go nuts on the population of the game world and leave your sanity and morals at the door..
