Unbelievably, locking on to enemies and flicking the left thumbstick up to snap out a headshot feels far more satisfying than the precision offered by a mouse. And get this: there was no custom radio station in the preview build we saw. Whether this feature, which allows you to play your own music through the radios of Liberty City's cars, boats, helicopters etc, will appear in the final release is unknown, but if we can't listen to our Stephen Fry podcasts while reversing over hookers' faces, we'll be unaroused.
And that's no bad thing as long as you're prepared to pick up a pad, which you really should be by now. Keyboard and mouse controls stumble on a few counts, mostly through no fault of Rockstar's, but instead because analogue controls benefit GTAIV in almost every aspect. It's a world with the sort of believability that'll make you want to walk at a certain pace, drive at a certain speed and corner in a certain way.
A keyboard's digital input is a barrier to that. So we should all get pads. Sure, everyone's seen the trailer, and a few of us have seen a demo of the game running. But hard info? Not so much. You still jack cars, pilot choppers, swim, and pack heat, but is that a surprise to anyone?
All we know about multiplayer is that GTA4 coming to the PS3 and Xbox this October won't be a massively multiplayer online game, nor a death-match showdown, but "will match single player," according to a Rockstar rep. We know a little about the story: Protagonist Niko Bellic heads to Liberty City from Eastern Europe to turn his life around, only to find that the wonders his cousin promised were unfounded.
What we know the most about is the setting. And while those earlier games made you feel like you were in a city, none of them made you feel like you were in the city. One of Rockstar's biggest goals is to change that and really nail the NYC feel. Fact is, we've been impressed by what we've seen. Graphically, it's a beaut. And since this is Rockstar's most ambitious re-creation of the metropolis yet, we wanted to see how far the developers have come to mimicking NYC.

Pixlr Easy editing of your personal memories. They both end up in debt and entering a spiral of crime that's very difficult to escape. Mission by mission, they'll have to fight against corrupt thieves and sociopaths to build up as much money as possible and climb to the top of the city's social scale. The launch of this much-awaited game was initially exclusive to third-generation video consoles. It received plenty of praise for its improved graphics compared to Xbox and PS3 and for its extended options such as being able to control the traffic density, configure the drawing distance and the repeat editor that allows the players to record and edit their own clips of the game.
However, the PC version of this game also managed to become one of the most disappointing titles of the year for many gamers as its minimum requirements were very high for that time, it was incompatible with ATI Radeon controllers and it had DRM problems, among many other complications that obviously weren't present in the video console versions. The guys at Rockstar always find a way to surprise the players. In this GTA, that's already eight years old, we can find features and graphics that don't look too outdated even today:.
