Gameplay Involving Niko

* Whether you like it or not girlfriends are returning in GTA 4, hopefully it's used better than San Andreas.

* You can't gain weight, nor can you get yourself muscled. You can alter your look like hairstyle, facial hair and clothing.

* Niko is able to climb ladders, escape ladders, and telephone poles and is also able to climb fences and walls just like in San Andreas.

* Niko is able to swim in GTA 4, although he can't dive or go under water, Niko can only swim on top of the water. So that ends the debate that white characters can't swim in the GTA world tounge.gif.

* Niko can order taxi cabs, and either hit the trip skip button(Y)/(Triangle), or he can just take a look from inside the cab and take the full time to get to his destination. Which features a "Cinematic Camera" like setting. Niko is also able to call up the police as he does in one of the missions that's been revealed.

* A fare meter appears on-screen as soon as Niko enters a cab, and the camera pans around it as it drives.

* In taxis, you can ask the driver to change the radio station by pressing D-pad left or right.

* When Niko purchases clothes, he has to pick them separately from shelves rather than the "Walk-in Closet in Stores" from San Andreas. The clothes are all hung up and walking past them promts the option to try them on by pressing the 'LB' button on the 360 and the 'L1' on the PS3.

* Just like in past GTA's the auto aim feature is returning, Niko is also able to go into manual aim. Lock-on always targets the chest area, but once locked on you can fine tune aiming with the right thumbstick for specific body parts. Free-aim is available in both drive-by's and foot gunning.

* On shooting, the magazine states that: "the cover system borrows elements of Gears of War, and Rainbow Six: Vegas." It also says that "the aiming is a Resident Evil 4, over the shoulder style." The new targeting system was described. There are eight purple segments in the target circle that make up someone's health, which you get when you're locked on - during free aiming you don't get the indicator. The combat rests somewhere between Resident Evil 4 and Gears of War in terms of style, allowing you to roll, find protection and blind-fire from behind cover, police officers and gang members are able to do the same.

* For the new melee-combat system, Rockstar consulted a UFC master of the Israeli special-forces martial art, Krav Maga. Whist your not locked on to a person you can do a push/shove Assassins Creed style but when locked on to a target you have the option to kick, punch and there's also an alternative punch. There is now also a dodge button and you are able to disarm opponents.

* Tapping up on the D-Pad brings up the phone where you can access text messages, an organizer, multiplayer modes, a camera, and contacts list, which becomes updated automatically as you meet people. Tapping up a second time will bring up the keypad to make calls. There's also an 'options' menu on the mobile which enables you to change ring tone, text message size and other options.

* When selecting your mobile phone, a zoomed-in version of the mobile screen pops up in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen, where you can use its address book to pitch for "jobs" with gang contacts among other things.

* Niko can enter the Police Database in any stolen Police car, and search by photo on the LCPD computer, using photos taken on your mobile phone.

* The internet is available for Niko to use in the game also. Niko can use the internet to gain information about contacts or people he needs to kill. their location for example. There will be over 100 fictitious websites that can be accessed via Liberty City's net cafes. One of these is GolderbergLinerAndShyster.com, which helps you with an early mission.

* GTA IV's in-game internet is ridiculously extensive, featuring spoofs of liberal and conservative news sources with coverage of your in-game antics, as well as spoofs popular blogs and websites (craigslist, for example). Irritating pop-up banner ads also make an appearance and Niko can hook up with a wide range of girls via dating websites.

* The 360 EZine reports that time based missions are definitely in the game. It also mentions 'time limited actions.' For example: If a train leaves at 10.00pm and you arrive an 10.01pm, you fail the mission

* Shooting different parts of the body has different impacts (e.g shoot a security guard in the foot at the top of the stairs, and he'll cum tumbling down, you may also see gang members trying to crawl away from fire with their last bit of strength)

* Little Jacob (a Caribbean arms dealer) is a good friend of Niko's cousin. When you buy weapons from him (which are kept in his trunk) you can scroll through them like you did in Ammu-Nation in the previous GTA games. The weapons on offer by Little Jacob included a 9mm, a shotgun, an SMG, and a micro SMG also the rocket launcher makes a return (A distinct tube-shaped weapon strapped to the underside of Little Jacob's trunk hatch).

* For those of you who were thinking GTA 4 would go with the realsitic approach and only allow you to carry certain weapons at a time or showing Niko actually carrying the weapons will be slighty dissapointed. Kiklo said in one of their articles that guns would appear magically like past games. "as we're armed with a rocket launcher (which like all weapons collected is magically hidden on Niko's person in good old convenient video game style)."

* In GTA IV you have to develop relationships with other characters. Your relationship with Little Jacob, for example, is maintained through phone calls and loyalty. Developing good relationships with different characters can provide different rewards.

* Building relationships with characters is important. During the preview, Jacob comes to meet you rather than vice versa. This is only possibly once your friendship with Jacob has developed to a certain stage. Relationships can be damaged if you (for example) fail to turn up for meetings. Pool, eating, darts, and bowling are just some of the 'friend' activities possible in GTA IV. The cell phone is used to access these activities.

* The WASTED! system is still intact. If you die, you end up at the nearest hospital (minus your weapons) the next morning.

* Parachutes will not be returning in the game, no more bailing form aircrafts and using the parachute to fall to safety.

* A big head-on crash will cause you to go flying out of the windscreen to serious injury and possibly death: Niko has'nt got time for seatbelts.

* You can resist arrest when getting busted by tapping A/X. This however will reward you an additional wanted star

* When you die, the screen fades to black and white and the camera shifts to a first-person view of your final resting place, it is quite affecting, and again, not a small bit cinematic.

Had some fun playing with Eagles, pretty solid game so far. Need some sleep now.

I ended up getting it at midnight because I found out the place that offered the 1400 points wasn't going to have the points until later in the week and I am not waiting that long.
