Title: GTA IV Music
Post by: cDa on March 29, 2008, 09:36:19 pm

From Grand Theft Auto 3 onwards, radio has been an increasingly important part of the Grand Theft Auto universe. In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, radio stations started to build their own identity, featuring distinct characters that made every station unique. In San Andreas, the music was stepped up to match the dialogue in terms of variety and quality. Grand Theft Auto IV is continuing the legacy with a total of 18 stations, sporting the same unique flavour and styling that we've come to expect from all Grand Theft Auto titles.
