New bling, bang, and badasses in TBOGT:

Metascore: 91 on the strength of 20 reviews.

New York Times:

I have not seen a recent film or television show with snappier New York patois than Gay Tony. Most Grand Theft Auto technical production is in Britain, but Dan Houser, the main G.T.A. writer, is based in New York and his penchant for simultaneously glamorizing and satirizing bad guys is unrivaled.

Gay Tony is one of those great, rare games in which you can lose yourself for hours just exploring and discovering new things to do. Race some boats or cars. Shoot a game of pool. Watch some high-quality satirical television. Skydive off a tower in Midtown. Dance with the ladies at the club. Or just drive around listening to the radio.

[New York Times]
