Grand Theft Auto IV has been a hit with gamers since it was released in 2008. With such an exciting game, many aficionados enjoy reviewing the thrills even outside of active play. While replay offers a certain level of additional pleasure, most people are unable to play all of the time. When gaming isn't possible, players can still enjoy Grand Theft Auto IV thanks to the game's official screensaver.

Players around the world can appreciate the fantastic collection of screenshots from Liberty City featured in this screensaver, which works on Windows versions 98 and up. Shots from gameplay are displayed in amazing sequences to let viewers revel in the excitement of the acclaimed title. Players don't have to worry about ever getting tired of this screensaver, because it's designed to automatically get more pictures from the game's official website as they're created.

Unfortunately, this screensaver doesn't include any configuration options for viewers who like to customize their software. As a result, snapshots are displayed for a set amount of time, and transitions are stuck on default. While this may be a downside for some, the included images will please many players enough that they won't care too much about changing anything.

With fresh imagery from one of the hottest games in recent years, fans of the Grand Theft Auto series are sure to get a huge kick out of this special screensaver. Regular updates virtually guarantee that the screensaver won't get old, and the excellent compatibility profile ensures that users can enjoy the gameplay screenshots from a huge variety of desktop computers. Despite its lack of options, the Grand Theft Auto IV screensaver is a definite winner for its criminally great stream of gameplay images.
