Well, I've logged 5 hours of play and no freezing (knocks on wood)

I did notice a few pop-ups and a couple small glitches while watchin TV but nothin major...

speaking of which, Katt Williams is not funny in the least bit on here... disappointed the hell outta me

it does take some getting used to... I don't mind it except for when I'm tryna take a shortcut and end up getting stuck, you're pretty much fucked if you got cops right on your ass because you wont be able to push them outta the way... already happened to me twice, second time I got as far as inside the cop car trying to back up, but the other one shot me up

Weapons #1

486-555-0100

Weapons #2
(Knife, Molotovs, Handgun, Shotgun, Uzi, AK47, Sniper Rifle, RPG)

I would personally prefer set # 1, but I dont try any of the codes until I've either beaten the game or gotten beyond frustrated with it

no more jumping out of a car and rollin fo a sec or two you start doin barrel rolls

the cop with the shot gun always kills me

every car seems slow

Has anyone done the drive bys? hella harder now..

I jus love how they made it more realisitic.. But i think thats also gonna make some people not like it too.. But the more real it is for me, the more i like it, thats why i chose tactical shooters over any other kind.
I feel the same way. The more realistic the better (as far as the physics, driving, etc. goes).

man I cant stand that fuckin arcade game, nuthin will kill a high quicker than that shit... fuckin fake-ass tetris shit... it's easy but it's so monotonous I can't stand it, which is why I still haven't played long enough to beat the high score

but anyway yeah I'm probably 8% or so complete, I've only played it for a few hours so far...

i noticed that when you mash on your car at like full speed any little movement and you lose control, which is kinda coo.


I got like 5 star wanted level when i swam to another side or something.. i somehow stayed alive running and getting shot for a while then i died when i swam into a boat.

i just did the mission with little jacob then after that i did the mission where you steal a cop car and go find the van with the stolen tvs. Then i called it quits for the night.

The List

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Hidden Artwork
In Trailer 2, you can see two artworks from previous GTA's, There's El Burro from GTA3 Here and the motorbike from Vice City Here. There is also more thanks to Mumol who with is good eyes spotted more Here


2. Sprunk
You may remember Sprunk from GTA VC, GTA SA and Manhunt well its returned to GTA IV with a brand new look. Sprunk is mainly a parody of Sprite but may also be a parody of others, but it also can be argued that the name is also a play on the word spunk. You can find Sprunk scattered all around Liberty City.

3. Cluckin' Bell
Cluckin' Bell is one of the few restraunts to return in GTAIV, Cluckin' Bell is a parody of Taco Bell and KFC as the companys have merged, it also could be a play on the word F*cking Hell, Cluckin' Bell can be found in numerous place in Liberty City, check your map for details.

4. Burger Shot
Burger Shot is another restaraunt returning in GTAIV, this is a parody of Burger King.

5. 72
This is a parody of 24 a popular TV show in america on the TV Channel FOX starring Kiefer Sutherland.

6. Childs Buggy
Although there are no children in GTAIV, there is a buggy hidden , I do not know if there's any meaning to it being there, could it mean there are children hidding - I doubt It. Thanks to Meowholland for the screen shot

7. Penis Refrence
GTA would not be GTA without the sex refrences, here is one that is in the bowling alley, as a neon sign, if you look close at the picture you can see that it is made out of a one pin and two bowling balls. thanks to Meowholland for the picture.

8. It's Alive.
If you ever have the time, visit the Statue Of Happiness (Statue Of Liberty), inside you will able to spot a giant heart actually pumping, the is no reason for being there only just to creap you out. Thanks to blowyerbrainsUK for the video.

9. Welcome to Vice City
Like in San Andreas with the sufboard in the closet or the maps in the bin, GTAIV has its own little refrence to Vice City, when you enter any of the bars in Liberty City you will see postcards of Vice City.

10. Claude
At the bottom of your apartment in Liberty City, as you go down the stairs you will spot graffiti on the walls, if you look close enough you will see the name Claude. If you don't know who Claude is he was the main playable character in GTA3, he was also know as Fido. Thanks to Dwayne Pheonix for the photo.

11. Fud Washing Powder
In any of the laudrettes in Liberty City, you will be able to spot an advertisment for the washing powder FUD, this is obviously a parody of Daz a washing powder in England. Thanks to smd86 for the photo.

12. Banksy Refrence
