Level & Power Unlimited Grand Theft Auto IV Previews

POWER UNLIMITED Grand Theft Auto 4 PREVIEWS

Level, a Swedish video gaming magazine, as well as Power Unlimited has released their Grand Theft Auto IV preview articles. As usual, they come with new details, but with the same batch of screenshots that were seen in other magazines such as PSM3 and the Official Xbox Magazine.

What’s the Juice?

From Power Unlimited Magazine:
- It feels more realistic driving in Grand Theft Auto IV.
- You can’t take most corners full throttle, you have to ease on the throttle.
- There will not be any loading times if you enter a train in the subway, then getting out after a few stations.
- When an enemy has been shot and the gun drops on the ground, it is possible that the gun be fired one time.
- When you give a headshot when a person is in a car, the head will possibly activate the horn.
- When you are in a police vehicle, you can call for backup.
- If you are in a dangerous situation, you can let the policemen do the dirty work for you.
- No bulletproof vests or armor will be in the game.

From Level Magazine:
Brucie is located in the Broker docks in an abandoned warehouse. He pays Niko to kill a specific person. Niko goes to the targets house, but somehow the target manages to escape through a back door. After a long car chase, Niko does a drive-by on the target who tried to escape on foot. When Brucie calls after the assassination, he screams: “You’re the man!”

Keeping friends in the game is very important, as mentioned before. If Niko shows up on time for meetings, run errands and helps his friends, he will get free taxi service, a free helicopter and guns delivered to his home. If you can’t make it to a meeting, you can call whomever you where supposed to meet, and tell that person you won’t be able to meet him or her just now.

Enemy health in Grand Theft Auto IV is indicated by a circle above the head. Also, cars behave much more realistic than in previous games. The massive weight of a car is something you really feel. There is also a car named Contender.

Finally, there is a place in Liberty City where you can rent helicopters. When Niko gets there, a man in a yellow jacket approaches him, and asks if he wants to view the city from above. The journalist who previewed the game blows the guys brains out, and steals a helicopter which can can piloted very high above Liberty City.
