Grand Theft Auto IV To Use SIXAXIS, PS3 Features Warmer Colors

The April 2008 issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly features a preview of Grand Theft Auto IV. In this preview they reveal some new information on the game.

The SIXAXIS will be used in Grand Theft Auto IV correctly (unlike other games).

They will possibly make a MMPOG (massively multiplayer online game) of GTA in the future. Possibly subscription based.

Beat up cars will eventually stall, leaving you on your feet (or to steal another car).

Tires will pop and shred apart when they are shot at.

The PlayStation 3 version features warmer colors while the Xbox 360 version features more vibrant colors.

The up button on the D-Pad brings up the cell phone. Clicking it twice brings up the keypad.

You gain different phones throughout the game. The bsica one has contacts, organizer, camera, and multiplayer mode. The MP3 version is obtained later in the game.

You can kill anybody. Even your contacts.

A radio station called WKTT (We Know the Truth). They make fun of Rush limbaugh and will have those rants that real fans called in during the time Rockstar took the calls from them.

DJ Lazlow is making a return.

Online bloggers play some form in the game as well.

The cheats that we know and love will also be in the game.

You can throw grenades out of a vehicle while you are driving. You can even "cook" the grenades.

Rockstar is getting into episodic downloads. The PlayStation 3 version may see some.

Well, thats all of it. Can't they just reveal the damn multiplayer already! Enjoy the information.
