Default Gta IV

Main character : Niko Bellic
Single player : yes
Multiplayer : yes (not a lot of informations about it )


Gta IV will be released on april 29 this year ! It will be release on PS3 and on Xbox 360. The action will take place in Liberty city, Anyone that played Gta III will understand which city I'm talking about . But the city is a lot different than in III, as you can see on this picture(1), Liberty City ( New-York ) looks incredibly true and the graphics (graphic engine RAGE) are just amazing.

1



Even with great graphics, the physic engine will be improved too, in IV, the physic engine will be euphoria from what it's says online ; '' is based on a full simulation of the 3D character, including body, muscles and motor nervous system ''. Here you can see euphoria in action(2).

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SalN1PiwHZU]YouTube - How will GTA IV physically be?[/ame]

Many things changed from the previous versions :

When you steal a parked car, you won't be able to open the door because it was unlocked ( like most of the cars in SA ), you'll now need to break a window unlock the door, and after that hotwiring it to be able to steal it.

The gunfight as been enhanced too, it will looks like GOW.

The pedestrians will be now a lot different, many of them will look similar, but there accessories will be different ( clothes, hats, ... ). They will also drink, smoke, read newspaper,...

The police way to search you will be different, in IV, you won't be able to go to Spray n pay to stop them to chase you, you'll need to escape a radius on the map, then they'll stop chasing you. BUT if they see you, it will replace the radius and you'll still be in the center of it, so you must escape it while being sneaky.

In IV, there's no plane, the size of the map is also less big than San Andreas, but you can enter much more building without any loading than the first one when you are about to play the game. But, Niko will be able to use helicopters.

Car driving will be enhanced, as well as how the player fight, walk, ...

Internet and mobile phone will be availble, there will be approximatively 100 websites, and you'll be able to use your phone to call other caracthers ingame and calling 911, take screenshots, ...

heavy fire will permanently destroy parts of the environnement.
Now, every streets in the game will have is own name, one of the reason is because cars will include gps.

so gotta get that game i might have to talk someone into buying me a 360 or less likely for someone to buy me a PS3 although i have always liked getting in planes on san andreas and flying around the whole map upside down. so it will be annoying there is no planes
