The May issue of Game Informer had a nice hands-on with Grand Theft Auto IV on the 360, so naturally as soon as readers got their hands on the magazine, the information spread like wildfire. Apparently scans of the magazine were at some point here, but we couldn't get to them. Here's the information that's been leaked thus far:- Main character: Niko Bellic, either a Croatian or Serbian (our vote is on Serbian).
- A multiplayer announcement will be made at some point in the future.
- You can use a mobile phone to call contacts (think of what this could mean in multiplayer)
- No planes! The game takes place in one city.
- You will have more choice than in previous games, although you'll still be taking orders from someone.
- Multiple branches in the story lead to a more open experience and different outcomes
- The story structure is supposedly "quite different" from the other titles.
That's it for now. We'll keep searching for more leaks and information.
