Forums - Gaming - Random/Funny things you've seen in GTA IV that others may not know about

Sure, this thread may exist, but I'm newly back here so apoligies in advance. 

I am not far into the missions side of things so please do not spoil anything to me or to others.

What have you noticed things about GTA IV that you'd never expected to see? Or weird little humourous posters others may have missed, I wanna know =)

Personally so far I like it's inbuilt internet, some funny shit right there, myroomonline.net(com?) is a total rip off of myspace and it insults it in so many ways, I also like the tabacco facts website which basically promotes cigarette smoking.

A nice touch I've noticed is when you stay still and leave the controller on the ground near a busy part of the city the screen will zoom in on it's own to near by events caused by the random people.

I'm Rich (The TV show) also had me pissing myself, damn these guys behind GTA really pulled off a perfect game.

There's hundreds and hundreds of small polished and random things to discover, have you seen anything that's easy to miss?



Around the Network

I love how, when you go on dates, they'll have a fluid conversation with you that somewhat relates to current events. For example, asking how Roman is doing or disclaiming her distaste for Vlad. It really actually gets me involved in the characters--in some small way, I feel like I have a real girlfriend living in the game.

(Girlfriend is Michelle btw)



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

I really enjoy some of the smaller gameplay touches.

I'm sure everyone has experienced this but when you are driving really fast and you hit an object head on you go flying through the windshield. The first time it happened it was so awesome. This other time I had a very high wanted level and a cop hit me head on and he went flying throught the windshield onto my car. So cool!

Another small bit of polish i noticed was that when you jack someones car and they try to get back in, they will sometimes hang onto the door handle as you try and speed away. I've only managed to do it once but i ended up driving around with him clinging on for a few blocks before driving a little too close to oncoming traffic :)
