GTA IV laat weer van zich horen en zien

* The main character's name is Niko Bellic - based on the surname it is likely he is from a former Yugoslav country (perhaps Croatia, Serbia or Bosnia)
* Multiplayer modes are to be announced
* Since it's only New York, there will be no planes in the game (?)
* The game has an awesome soundtrack
* You will use a cell phone to call contacts
* You have a lot of free choice over what you do in the game - it isn't like previous games in the sense of just accepting missions and completing them, there's a lot more you can do this time.
* GameInformer played the Xbox 360 version

There's also an interesting quote which suggests the atmosphere on the streets in the game will be very lively.

"A big part of New York life is walking around the streets and meeting lunatics. That's something we definitely tried to put into the game."
