Roadkill619’s GTA4 impressions and Dimorphic360’s first video

Well while the video is pure gaming fan boy’s like conduct, I thought it would be nice to have an over the top and corny video of me opening my GTA4 SE (guy’s on the blog if you want to know how to do video uploads ill gladly show you guy’s).

Now when I received my copy of GTA4 I jumped in my car, driving over the speed limit (don’t try this at home kids), and power parked into my drive way and ran to my gaming cave to play the fan dubbed “game of the century”.

Niko bellic, an immigrant that has moved to liberty city to pursue the American dream, Niko’s cousin Roman has talked about in his letters. Niko realises that Roman has been lying about his life in America, and is little more than a cab driver. Niko is shown around the city and is introduced to many new people. Niko is also not just looking for a new life, but a person.

If you think of GTA, you thinking do anything, go anywhere, this has not changed. The game play has been brought over all in tacked with massive over hauls in story, Graphics and game play. Rockstar are using the same engine they used in their Table Tennis game, and have put it to its full potential, coupled with the new euphoria physics engine.

Now game play is still go here to start mission, go here to kill this guy etc but the addition of the new phone mechanic makes the missions work all in unison and harmony instead getting confused of what to do next. Missions is not a “have to” situation, it’s there to progress story and narrative. The big picture of the game is to do whatever to your heart’s content, may it be pick up a hooker or cap a cop. Now if you aren’t all for the contracting hepatitis or getting locked up, then you can just call up one or email some of the lovely ladies in liberty city for a date. Now date’s can be fun, you have pub’s (which you can take any of the character’s that have been logged in your phone for a couple beers, or 10), Bowling ally’s, cabaret’s and more.

Now i personally love GTA purely because i can drive and kill at the same time, driving was always a big thing for me in a GTA showing of my skills with the banshee and infernus tearing up liberty and vice city. The cars in this one feels and handle all different, and not to mention the damage that I can do to the car now.

Now I’m probably rapping this up early but I’m going to add more later down the track of gaming and giving you more spoonful’s as I go through (hopefully).
