	The Game Deconstruction Group examines the most critically and commercially acclaimed video games in order to answer the question: what makes great games great? At the group’s most recent gathering hosted by the University of Southern California on July 10th, game makers gathered to discuss Rockstar's criminally successful sandbox game Grand Theft Auto IV. The attendees, consisting of designers, artists, programmers, and producers from game companies across Southern California, got to bottom of the issue during an evening of food, laughter, and good-natured debate.
