Poor Niko: Looking at Grand Theft Auto 4
When you are in a place where you want to cause some mayhem, but don’t really feel like breaking any laws or alarming any relatives or loved ones, you will find that one of your best bets is going to be Grand Theft Auto IV, traditionally known as GTA 4. Much like the previous games in the series, this game is a third person shooter crossed with a driving game. The style of game play can be as structured or as unstructured as you like; the lack of linear game play necessary can make it a great choice when you just want to unwind, relax, and not worry about a specific goal
The story of this game goes something like this, you are Niko Bellic recently immigrated from Eastern Europe and fresh from the Bosnian War. You have come to Liberty City to make a new life for your self but as it often goes there is a family member whose sole purpose in life it seems is to mess things up. Before you know it you are drawn into Roman’s problems with debt and nasty criminal types. Unknown to Roman you are actually there to settle a score with the guy who betrayed your unit in the war. As the missions are completed and choices are made you meet new friends that help you along the road to the truth. All the choices and final decisions made during the game affect the game and Niko’s success.
If you are looking at GTA 4, you will find that there are plenty of great benefits that recommend it. In the first place, you will find that you can take your pick between taking on storyline missions that allow you to unlock certain functions and certain aspects of the game, or you can simply roam the game enjoying the environment and the free-form actions that you can take. While there are consequences to both actions, you will find that this choice is one that is greatly enjoyed by fans of the game. You will also be able to take on several missions at once.
Much to the despair of some parents who have waited in extremely long lines to get an installment of this game, the game is quite popular and with all the possibilities it is easy to see why. The creators put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into making this game especially the shooter part. You can glide to a cover spot, free aim and have a blast. The targeting system is also sweet as you can now target specific body parts better, great for those one shot one kill maneuvers. Maybe the best part is the degree to which the police will drill down on you will vary according to crime and location.
Want to play a great new game? GTA-4 is the hottest thing going! The storyline is fantastic with great missions to back it up, and if you get into trouble and can not get out on your own, don’t forget about the GTA-4 cheats and walkthroughs, whatever you need its out there.
