Kotaku Preview of GTA4

  • Car chases during missions aren’t completely scripted
  • If a moving car’s tires are shot, the car will grind on the rims
  • An achievement called ‘One Man Army‘ is presumably unlocked by using a rocket launcher to blow up a police helicopter
  • The current build of the game contains cheats, which the developers used throughout the preview
  • Skipping the taxi ride will cost you a ’small fee,’ in addition to the ride fare
  • One mission previewed involved Niko sniping gang members in a construction site on a rooftop
  • Similarly to Gears of War, players can now use cover, blind fire, and free fire their weapons
  • Niko’s health is shown as a green bar that wraps around the radar, while his armor is shown as a similar blue bar
  • Items that are dropped by NPCs in the game such as money, weapons, and ammo glow in the dark to make them easier to find
  • While there will be multiplayer, there will be no cooperative gameplay for the story mode
