GAME FEATURES :-

The game is set in a redesigned rendition of Liberty City, a fictional city based heavily on modern day New York City. It follows Niko Bellic a war veteran from an unspecified country in Eastern European who comes to the United States in search of the American Dream but quickly becomes entangled in a seedy underworld of gangs, crime, and corruption. It is later revealed that one of the reasons Niko came to Liberty City was to search for the person he blames for the betrayal of his old army unit :Florian Cravic. The story features two possible endings depending on the choice made by the player at this point in the game. The player can choose to have Niko exact revenge on Dimitri or make a deal with him.

Grand Theft Auto IV is structured similarly to previous games in the series. The core gameplay consists of giving the player a large, open environment in which to move around. On foot, the player's character is capable of walking, running, swimming, climbing and jumping, as well as using weapons and basic hand-to-hand combat. Players can steal and drive a variety of vehicles, including automobiles, boats, helicopters, and motorcycles. The open, non-linear environment allows players to explore and choose how they wish to play the game. Although storyline missions are necessary to progress through the game and unlock certain parts of the map and content, they are not required, as players can complete them at their own leisure. When not taking on a storyline mission, players can free-roam, giving them the ability to do activities, both legal (such as bowling with friends met through the game or optional missions) and illegal (crimes such as car theft and killings). Commiting crimes, sometimes if strung together can attract the attention of the authorities.

Grand Theft Auto IV is a game that, in spite of its technical shortcomings on the PC, you simply have to play. The single-player game, which you can still play long after you complete the story, is the series' best by far, and the multiplayer features are good enough that you'll likely have no problem finding people to play with for many months to come. Performance issues prevent this lazy PC port of a superb console game from being the best Grand Theft Auto yet. There's lots to see in Liberty City, so you'd best get started.
