I was going to steal a helicopter from the helitour thingy... and noticed a guy standing close to the edge of the water. I punched him and he fell in the water, swam to the ladder, climbed back up, and I punched him back in. Four times.

I laughed hard.

I'd have to say a few:

Watching my boy play for the first time he was trying to jack some dudes car with his m4 and the car took off on him and way way up the street he was about to make a turn and my boy popped manual aim and shot once thru the back windshield and the car went right into the wall...Me him and about 4 other people there went "NO FING WAY" ran up to the car and sure enough he nailed the guy. (COD4 skills at their finest)

Memorable moments for me:

Watching other people in the world acting like me adds a lot to the game watching other bad guys run from the cops, draw on the cops, 3 cops mowing down someone...those were all amazing to see for the first time.

The bank heist mission...felt like I was in HEAT brought back memories of awesomeness (wish all the missions were that awesome).

People burning to their demise is awesome as well...car explodes and they get out screaming them they smoke after they become charcoal someone took their sweet time with that animation.



Cons I guess though are cops in GTA4 come running WAY to often. in other GTA games you could have a lot of fun and use major weapons anywhere but you pop a pistol shot and here comes the popo. Admittedly its more realistic but sadly it takes a lot away from the game.

Okay I dont know if this was already mentioned or not.
-There is an old civic, crx, hatch type car in the game. I dont know if its just me, but I think it has some sort of vtec. Put the volume up and turn the volume for the music down. You will hear it when acclerating hard from a stop.

I picked this game up just the other day. I love it. I'm all of .7% complete so far. I've had too much fun driving around learning the layout and controls.

I did catch an SUV on fire from doing burnouts. I drove it (on fire) into a crowd of people and into a wall. I jumped out as I started hitting the crowd, just in time for it to explode and watch as members of the crowd and myself went flying randomly into the air.

I need to set it up to record and do screen shots.

I noticed this too. I think it's just that you get going so fast that the engine can't handle it, and it hits the rev limiter. Seriously, that car is junk in this game. It's slow and handles like a turd.

It could be the VTAK kicking in, yo! But I figured it was just making fun of the CRX and/or Niko's driving ability. Because honestly, when you get in and floor it, it doesn't really go anywhere. But hey, you may be right.
