Abstract

Welcome to Liberty City, a rendition of New York City in the popular series of Grand Theft Auto. Released by Rockstar Games in April 2008, the forth installment continues the tradition of being as controversial as the three GTA's before it. With hyper realistic graphics, real world physics, and the ability to control major plot points in the game, Grand Theft Auto allows gamers to free roam with the sole purpose of creating havoc, destruction, and causing fatalities. In Grand Theft Auto IV, the gamer plays as Niko, an Eastern European immigrant that came to Liberty City to pursue the American Dream but instead gets mixed up with a life of crime. game content includes blowing up helicopters, stealing vehicles, shooting cops or drug-dealers, and includes the option to partake in activities offered by prostitution and strip clubs
