New details of Grand Theft Auto IV - GTA 4

The official magazine British PlayStation counts some new features more.


The official magazine PlayStation of the United Kingdom has published in its last edition new details of Grand Theft Car IV, the waited for game of action of Rockstar Games that will enter the new generation for the first time the 19 of October of this year. The development of the game began in November of 2004, after completing GTA: San Andreas.

Between the details kept awake in the article, some are on the technical section of the game. In the same way which the GTA of PlayStation 2 took to the limits the hardware of the console, Rockstar tries that its new GTA IV the reference in the new generation. There will be sudden generation of scenes or no objects - pop in, but that the Vista will include several kilometers. There will either be times of no load, nor in the bridges that unite the different zones from Liberty City - Dukes, Brokers, Algonquin-.

The cars of the game, according to Rockstar, will have as much level of detail that could well carry out their own game of speed. The “high resolution” of GTA IV not only will remain in the graphs, but that Rockstar hopes that that concept can be applied to other aspects of the game, as the sound or the design of the missions. These will be longer than in previous games, more varied, and in addition they will not be linear, but that depending on how they are developed will take to different results.

The technological section has been limited, according to Rockstar, by the absence of hard disk of series in Xbox 360, and by the relative limitation of capacity of the DVD-9 of this console. Aspects like the amount of pedestrians that will be the same time in the street still are about to to determine, and depend on the power of the console. In order to fight with the differences of programming of 360 Xbox and PlayStation 3, Rockstar North counts on the aid of Rockstar San Diego.

In the game there will be remarkable differences with respect to previous GTA, according to Rockstar has changed almost everything, except the idea of a free city where to accomplish missions. Apparently, it seems that the history of the game will be more realistic, or near the reality, of the sight in previous games. They will not appear personages of previous GTA because, according to Rockstar, the majority already is deads, and because they would not fit either with the type of development that Rockstar wants to give the history of GTA IV, that will try to be more credible.



The ambientación of Liberty City is very being taken care of, and to obtain it Rockstar it has made interviews with police and criminal novel authors. By all means, the Mafia will be implied in the history of GTA IV. The world of the game will be more alive than ever, and the personages who we cross ourselves by the street will make different actions, and will very have varied reactions. They take bags of the purchase, they smoke, they speak on the telephone, speak among them, etc… The police has also changed, and now it will be more difficult to fight with them that in previous deliveries.

The main personage, Niko Bellic, have around 30 years and have arrived at Liberty City in boat. Rockstar will include characteristics in history like romance, to make it more credible, and will eliminate possibilities, as the system of empires and the purchase of properties, because it considers “absurd” that Niko is made millionaire overnight. The personages of the game will be, apparently, more credible, and will be more forms to deal with them. There will be also new more realistic possibilities, like being able to remove money from tellers, or to call by telephone when we want.

Each zone of the game will be very different, and will have its own style, from the buildings to the possibilities - the most expensive and exclusive stores are in Algonquin (Manhattan). Each zone will have, even, its own vegetation. It will not be possible to be entered all the buildings, but it will be possible to be watched outside from the interior of many.

The sound track of GTA IV still is determining and announcing, but Rockstar has confirmed that will be compound of modern songs. It has not been confirmed either if music in MP3 will be able to be listened that we have stored in the console in the game.

Finally, it has been confirmed that will be several ways multiplayer, but not if the detection of movement of PS3 the SixAxis control will be used. Of being thus, single they will be used of “amused” form, in words of Rockstar.
