GRAND THEFT AUTO IV

Yo, I'm not going lie, I'm a...well, I can be a serious video game nerd. I haven't had the chance to play this, but I keep hearing how crazy fun it is. Even the story sounds more interesting than the previous Grand Theft's

"Niko Bellic is the anti-hero, taking the place of Grand Theft Auto III's nameless thug and Vice City's Tommy Vercetti. He's a Russian immigrant with a life of crime and several problems at home. Out of nowhere, his cousin Roman gives him a call, talking about how he lives the "American Dream" in Liberty City; He won't stop yapping about his lavish car collection or his multiple wives. Tempted to renew his life and find "that special someone" (as indicated in the game's latest trailer), Niko hops on a boat and makes his way over to the New York City-themed locale. Upon arrival, he finds the bitter truth – Roman's just a bum driving around in a taxicab, knee-deep in trouble. Upset by his cousin's deception and still hoping to find this mystery person, Niko starts down a dangerous path, one with shady characters providing opportunities galore, with rewards and consequences..."




There's a couple of different things going on this Grand Theft too. First revealed in a trailer back in March, Liberty City went from being a "Nowhere USA" town to a New York City clone. Instead of running through the busy streets of Manhattan, you'll travel through Algonquin. Queens has become Dukes, Brooklyn is now the Broker, the Bronx has been done away with in favor of the Bohan and New Jersey has become Alderney. You'll drive Niko around each of these boroughs, eventually earning more assets and gaining your own sense of the "American dream", rather than the version Roman attempts to sell you.



Well enough about that, just cop it!!!!
