Grand Theft Auto.
Take that, fanboys.
Seriously, that game has absolutely no substance. There's no good action, no good story, no good controls, not even a good atmosphere.
This game has nothing.
Have you even bothered to play any of those games, i'm not one of those people that will follow rockstar blindly into the promised land, ( GTA4 had obvious flaws ) but on the whole discrediting the first two which I didn't really get a chance to play, the series is amazing. But to address your points they have consistently the best action in any games limited only by your imagination. Storylines that are compelling from beginning to end (barring the last one I don't give a crap about some mafiosa blokes diamonds if i'm honest) and the control scheme is the easiest to pick up play in the market. Anyway this time round saints row trounced GTA4.
For me, worse game ever: The Urbz Sims in the city, for a game built on customisation by the user, then telling them they had to make there character look like this or they can't continue it was terrible add to this the worst black eyed peas cameo ever, horrid story (Money makes you popular...YEAH!) and you have the worse game ever made. It even gets mocked in later sims releases, when you use the metal detector you sometimes find buried copies of this game, with which your character makes an angry/disappointed face and throws it away.
