Gangstar Vegas is the fourth game is a series meant to emulate the experience of Grand Theft Auto, one of the most popular open-world game series on Earth. This game is set in Las Vegas, and it is the largest of the open-world games from Gameloft in this series.

The story behind Gangstar Vegas is a bit old and overdone, but it's a classic set up that many will instantly recognize and easily follow. The main character is a professional fighter who goes against the wishes of a mob boss trying to control the fights, so the character has to go on the run to survive. The voice acting and script are a bit overacted and cliche, but the game is still quite a bit of fun.

The previous game in the series, Gangstar Rio, was already an exceptionally large game, but Gangstar Vegas is a whopping nine times the size of the playable area from that older game. The gameplay is highly varied, which is great for keeping players interested, and there are more than 80 missions that must be completed to win the game. Missions include objectives like winning a prize fight, catching certain villains, or street-racing. Not only that, but the game includes numerous mini-game challenges that are scored with online leaderboards.

One of the most interesting features of this game is the Quick Play mode that allows players to opt in to single-event challenges that aren't involved in the full story of the main game. These events might include timed attacks, survival against waves of enemies, street brawls, or even heists. This feature is great for those who want to play for a short amount of time, or for those who haven't played in a while and want to brush up on their skills.

The open-world nature of the game is truly where the fun exists, and there are tons of areas in the game worth exploring. You'll speed down the Las Vegas strip while chasing the bad guys, and you'll gamble at the casinos in order to win money to bankroll your activities. The level of detail in the world is quite amazing.

Players can customize their character with different weapons, items, and hair styles, and there are tons of vehicles to help get around the massive map. The controls for the game are basically identical to the older games in the series, so returning players won't have much of a learning curve. The visuals in the game are just as good as the mobile versions of other open-world style games such as this, including GTA III. There is some bad language and adult situations, so this game is best suited for adults.
