1001 facts about IV era

[Dr. John]

Alright, I used Search Feature here and I didn't find any similar topics.

 

So, as we all know, there are many, many stuffs in GTA 4 and EFLC which we haven't found or are really interesting. We will list down some of them. So, lads, point them out.

 

1. Niko is the fastest object in this game. (If of fall off from a vehicle, Niko will keep on bouncing until the road comes to an dead end or Niko dies. He is more faster than Infernus. Believe me, I tried it. Don't know about Johnny and Luis.)

2. Niko/Johny/Luis can't dive in water and they won't lose much health if they jump from a high place and land on water. (Until he isn't too close to shore)

3. Niko won't have girlfriends in Storyline way as Michelle and Kate, both will somehow leave Niko.

4. Luis Lopez has a record in GTA 4 Criminal Database of LCPD. Well, it could have been a great find if anyone would have found this before EFLC was released.

5. In TBoGT, the player can use Parachute but Luis and Parachute don't mix up well, IMO.

 

EDIT: Did some Spell Check.
