Grand Theft Auto 4's Liberty City mapped in Google Street View
16
We know that most of you have probably memorized every square inch of Grand Theft Auto 4's massive metropolitan playground, but for the less cartographically inclined, GTA4.net has created an invaluable resource. Using the Google Maps API and over 80,000 screenshots, the site has created an interactive, near-complete map of Rockstar's virtual New York City.
The map's coolest feature is, hands down, its ability to look through each and every avenue of Liberty City using Street View, which makes locating each and every Burger Shot an absolute breeze. In fact, this feature is so neat, we hope they somehow find a way to put a map together for L.A. Noire's setting! Oh, wait.

It's probably more fun than the actual game since you don't have to take Roman on a date ever 45 minutes of play.

@adr916 It wouldn't work as well for read dead, mapping all that grass and dirt is hard.

Nothing in GTA IV I liked better than being warmly greeted by the kindly employees of Burger Shot. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emYcQwZ2gCc&feature=related

Nope, im trying to forget everything about it. Liberty City was bland and boring as.. well GTA4, i dont think i can go much lower.

I'm sorry, but what a stupid thing to say. If you can't have a blast with GTA Free Roam then you're an unimaginative twat. Go back to playing bland, boring Deathmatch.

There was hardly any connections to make GTA 4 seem like any of the previous ones, They should have left it where it was, and made games like RDR and L.A. Noire the serious ones,.You don't change direction midstream, and that's what they did.That is why Saint's Row the Third is where I place my faith in light open world crime goofiness, not the heavy melodramatic crap GTA IV is, hopefully 5 will get back to the roots that made the series great.
