The Grand Theft Auto series is given the PS3 treatment in Grand Theft Auto IV – the first next-gen title in the series!

What does the American Dream mean today? For Niko Bellic, fresh off the boat from Europe, it is the hope he can escape his past. For his cousin, Roman, it is the vision that together they can find fortune in Liberty City, gateway to the land of opportunity. As they slip into debt and are dragged in a criminal underworld by a series of shysters, thieves and sociopaths, they discover that the reality is very different from the dream in a city that worships money and status, and is heaven for those who have them and a living nightmare for those who don’t.

Between 6pm and 10pm on Sunday the 6th of April, 365 Games will have this available for £29.99 – I would mention the XBox 360 version, but for the fact that it will more than likely not work on your console.
