GTA IV reinvents the series with a renewed version of Liberty City detailed to the last pothole and rooftop vent. There are now four boroughs to explore plus extra areas outside of Liberty City proper. With the ability to climb obstacles, drive cars, steer boats and pilot helicopters, the world of GTA is more accessible than ever before.
For Niko Bellic, fresh off the boat from Europe, it is the hope he can escape his past. For his cousin, Roman, it is the vision that together they can find fortune in Liberty City, gateway to the land of opportunity. As they slip into debt and are dragged into a criminal underworld by a series of shysters, thieves and sociopaths, they discover that the reality is very different from the dream in a city that worships money and status, and is heaven for those who have them and a living nightmare for those who don't.
The Plot - Grand Theft
Auto IV is a brand new adventure in the GTA universe following the experiences of Nikolai
Bellic, a new immigrant from an undisclosed eastern European country whose troubled
past and the persuasion of his cousin Roman have brought him to the fictional Liberty
City. Unfortunately, Niko's search for the American Dream and a much needed fresh start,
hits an immediate snag when the rags to riches story Roman spun to pique Niko's interest
is exposed as not only a complete fabrication, but a ploy to enlist Niko's well-known
skills as a tough guy against the ample list of enemies clamoring for Roman's debt-ridden
blood. Because Roman is the only person Niko knows in Liberty City he begrudgingly accepts
his role as Roman's protector despite the deception. But as time goes on Niko comes into
his own, and his experience on the wrong side of the tracks proves more valuable than he
could have ever imagined as he fights for survival and later supremacy on the crime ridden
streets of Liberty City.
.Game Environments -
Based on several of the boroughs of New York City and parts of New Jersey, Liberty City,
familiar to players of previous games in the series, has been entirely redesigned for GTA
IV. Players can expect visible detail down to the weeds growing in the cracks in the
sidewalk, cars and buildings of visibly different ages and a much greater level if
verticality in the buildings and bridges that they are able to explore as Niko moves
through the city streets. In addition, pedestrians in GTA IV are much more realistic. No
longer simply moving cardboard cutouts, these NPCs are intelligent, modern, human
representations that laugh, cry, eat, drink, use cell phones and As, and talking amongst
themselves regardless of Niko's interaction with them.
Gameplay - Historically
GTA games have focused heavily on mission-based play, requiring successful completion of
fixed tasks in order for players to progress through the game, but this has changed to a
great extent in GTA IV. Players will experience an entirely new and exciting emphasis
centered on the blending of on-mission and off-mission play, resulting not only in an
increased sense of realism, but more interesting and unrestricted gameplay.
