Richard has been given a permanent boner in anticipation of NGII.
There's your answer.

Actually, GTAIV is multiplatform, so its page resides on Joystiq.

yeah I was only able to pass the first test of valor on warrior, then I decided since they are soooooo hard that I will spend all my money on weapon upgrades on my 1st play through, then on my 2nd run I will spend all money on health and ninpo to get passed the test, also my 2nd play will be a skull finding run.
richard: you need the "Rod of Trials". A golden rod that activates theses round rock platforms to blue. This Rod can only be found in Ch.2 right after you find the "Notebook of Ultimate Guidance".
There are these stairs that if you just run up them you will only battle a few ninjas, but if you stay at the bottom of these stairs the ninjas will just kept coming...something like 30 of them. once they are finished you get the gold rod.

I'm on the 3rd one right now. The first run through I almost beat it, but those stupid dragons are frustrating. Going to give it a shot after work today.
The 2nd one gave me a talisman of rebirth, which I already had one, and you can only carry, one. Pissed me off.

The second test of valor gave me a YELLOW ORB!!! You know those moments when you're really pissed, and yet you can't help but laugh at your misfortune...

Richard there is an item you have to have for them to be available I believe?? I think you find it early on in the game but I dont remember what its called.
They are intense, the one I was trying last night just about seemed impossible! haha.

To whoever didn't pick up the item for the test of valors, start over. The tests are sooo much fun. The first one was a breeze. The second was a bit tougher - died at least five times. Still, if you don't mind spamming UTs then you shouldn't have any problems.

I might. Probably be a bit irrelevant by the time I finish the game though.
Maybe I'll do one on my personal blog.

Nice to see a page just for this game. I also have little blood flowing to my brain ever since this game has arrived.
Would be nice to have an area where people can discuss the game: especially tactics for defeating the bosses. Is it just me or is the boss of chapter 3 just plain cheap. No way should a boss have attacks that you can't dodge or block (little homing missiles). Yes, you can use ninpo, but that's just lame and lacks any skill.
NGB's bosses were hard, but always fair. If you had enough skill you could get by without ever being hit. But NG2...I nearly threw my controller last night, for the first time ever!
