cmacca4 Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 (edited) Right, I know it was a stupid question! Right so we know that you can put your elbow through the window to shoot ahead, but you can also drop grenades aswell! :Pressing x(360) will make Niko jump and cling on to ledges. He can also shimmy them sideways to access new areas :Niko can push pedestrians out of the way with B, like in Assassin's Creed :There's a new dashboard view :Some streets are named after strange celebrities-Jim Jones street and Hubbard avenue :Characters will communicate via headset in certain missions :Niko's health is shown in a semi-circle around the radar, you can complete it by getting yourself bulletproof armour :You can see characters breath when it's cold :The Mafia, the Triads, the Jamaicans and the Irish are some of the factions :Some pedestrians will pee up walls (anyone remember that infamous GTA3 cheat?) :One of the radio stations advertises a cartoon called "My Drunk Uncle" :There are missions where you'll be encouraged to kneecap your enemies :Street lights flicker :Cluckin' Bell has outlets across Liberty City :Shoot a tyre and you hear the air escaping :You wear a helmet while riding a motorbike(i know we all know that but), and throw it down when you get off :You pay tolls on the bridges :Moths fly around street lamps :Some pimped-out cars have spinners :The radio reports on missions you've just done :Niko's feet land on every step when you go up stairs :Run someone over and you'll get blood on the bumpers and windscreen :Drivers will duck under there dashboards and try to drive away if there caught in a gunfight :In minor collisions, pedestrians can put a hand out to steady themselves against cars :You can see passengers in the backs of cars :Some billboards shuffle electronically between different adverts :You can see cockroaches scuttling along the floor in some of the dodgier houses :Shoot people and the blood splatters, be shot and it also splatters often on to the camera :You can see car exhaust flames :Bodies float off in the water :Drive on a flat and the tyre will shred off showering sparks :Trucks will spill barrells as they swerve across the road :You can shoot the chains holding logs together on flatbed trucks to spill them across the road :Vans belonging to the same company will honk to acknowledge each other when they pass :Apart from picking up fist-aid kits and buying food there's apparently "one other way" to earn health, maybe befriend a docter... :The melee combats been tweaked (well duh!) while your holding down RT with fists selected, A, Y and B do different attacks including a devastating kick to the chutneys!use X for blocking Thats all for now and i havent read the whole thing, it's an 8 page hands-on, hope some of that info is new for you guys, most of it is for me, i'll update if i see anything else.

GTASIX Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Thanks for posting. The bits I like most are blood will splatter on the bumpers and windscreen. And Tyres will come off and make the wheels spark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmacca4 Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 (edited) It also states that the PS3 version is now only about a week behind the 360 in terms of completeness, but will be nearly identical to look at and play.Both consoles will get additional downloadable content but the 360 will have two additional missions! Chris Edit-I never thought about that way to get exxxtra health! Lol. Chris Edited February 8, 2008 by cmacca4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may not be out in the shops yet. Chris, are you a subscriber to Games Master? Or was it delivered from your local newspaper shop. No point people trying to find the mag if it isn't out yet! And off topic a bit but do they (Games Master) still have a TV programme? I used to love that. [ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manofpeace Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Where it says that lights flicker, it already did that in San Andreas. Really only in Ganton and such, but the lights flickered occasionally, giving an awesome effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmacca4 Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 (edited) They also say that this is the most amazing living breathing game metropolis ever and surprisingly doesn't suffer to much frame-rate drops! So that is very good to hear! Chris Edit-Nah i subscribe to it so i don't think it'll be out yet but you can try, Nah they don't have a show anymore, but yeah it was awesome!

ceedot Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Wow. Awesome info. Half of it sounds like bullsh*t (becuase it's too good to sound true maybe?), but it's awesome. You should have just posted it instead of asking. Good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic_Al Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 :Pressing x(360) will make Niko jump and cling on to ledges. He can also shimmy them sideways to access new areas How can he do this without the counterbalance of Lara Croft-size breasts? I thought this was supposed to be a realistic game.
