This game brings back so many memories! I remember playing it back in 2010 after watching the trailer for GTA IV. I was totally hooked, playing it in my brother's room on the Xbox 360. I recently got it for my Steam Deck, and it runs like a dream! For those interested, the graphics are still great, and the gameplay hasn’t changed at all. You get the original GTA IV, plus the two DLCs: The Lost and the Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony. I loved every minute of GTA IV and rushed through the storyline. I even earned the Achievement "Liberty City Minutes," which means I finished the game in under 30 hours. I maxed out my friend list just to hang out with them and grab rewards, like Patrick giving you a bomb to put under a vehicle, or Little Jacob allowing you to buy weapons from him. Dwayne hooks you up with his buddies for backup, and Roman gives you free taxi rides. Overall, if you’re considering playing this game, definitely go for it! The story is fantastic, and the DLCs are awesome too. There’s so much great content: gameplay, weapons, vehicles, and more that I can’t even think of right now. Just a heads-up, though: when you’re in the Liberty City part, there’s one mission at the end where Niko has to climb onto a helicopter. Drops your frames to 30 FPS, which is strange because if you try to go above 60 FPS, the game glitches, and Niko won’t climb up. So, if you find yourself in that situation, make sure to drop your frames to 30 or lower. It’s a bit of a hassle, but just keep it in mind when you're finishing that mission. Honestly, it’s totally worth grabbing if you find it on sale. I highly recommend it! If you have a Steam Deck, it runs perfectly. You might want to use Python to optimize it, but seriously, go for it! It's a blast!

Нико Белик и американская мечта. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3779153893 Эмигрант из восточной Европы, спасаясь от войны и нажитых проблем уезжает к двоюродному брату в Америку, после его хвалебных писем о богатстве, женщинах и крутых тачках. Сатира на американскую мечту или просто троллинг эмигрантов? С корабля на бал или.. Получаем обратный эффект. Район и квартирка Романа очень бедные, нет ничего из обещанного им, ни дорогих тачек, ни женщин, только долги и проблемы. Да и фильтр игры иногда дымчато-желтый, а иногда темный, почти нуарный говорит о депрессии и разбитых мечах. Город тоже своего рода персонаж и не очень дружелюбен к Нико. Проблемы от которых он сбежал следуют за ним и наваливаются новые. Русская и итальянские мафии, фбр, мелкие бандиты и ростовщики, полоумная семейка Макрири, скучно главному герою не будет. В игре большое количество связанных между собой, коротких сюжетных линий, в виде знакомства с разными колоритными, карикатурными и комедийно-драматичными персонажами. Их характеры подчеркивает само время, эпоха в которой они крутятся чтобы выжить. Нико, несмотря на попытку завершить прежнюю жизнь оказывается втянут в их разборки и дележ, применяя полученные на войне навыки. Попутно Белик ищет пару людей из прошлого. Задания несмотря на сумбурность потихоньку двигают нас к финалу. К мести, ну или прощению, смотря как игроку больше нравится. Финал лично мне не нравится, как то слишком резко всё обрывается, мораль есть, но этого мало. Персонажи являются главной гордостью игры, как и диалоги между ними. Слово "36aнYтые" отлично описывает что первое, что второе. Кат-сценки с Брюси или Юсуфом вообще шедевр, очень смешно. Все персонажи, даже те, которые встречаются единожды очень круто прописаны и имеют свою изюминку. Геймплей сильно устарел. Под 95% всего времени мы просто перемещаемся из точки в точку. Не важно, основной ли это квест, дополнительная активность, вроде гонок или наркоразборок из dlc. Езда с другом в боулинг, закупки патронов и брони. И главное - сейвы в постели, куда нужно ездить регулярно, а потом ехать до квеста, а по квесту ехать в точки А,Б и С, а потом ехать сейвиться вновь и т.д. Иными словами на перемещение уходит почти всё время в игре, что является жирным минусом. Геймплею чего то не хватает. Будем надеяться, что в 6 часть добавят некий элемент интерактива, который разбодяжит унылые покатульки. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3780970661 Неудобство перезапуска миссий тоже спорное решение. Если игрок поехал до задания, заехал за броней и провалил его, а потом через телефон перезапустил миссию, то по какой то магической причине деньги потраченные на лечение в больнице не возвращаются, как и патроны и броня. Т.е. игрока кидают на НАЧАЛО миссии с потраченными ресурсами, которые как-бы еще не потрачены, ведь это перезапуск с начала. Чертова мультивселенная. Еще немало проблем, учитывая кор геймплея доставляет поломанная физика автомобилей, а точнее "масляная" дорога. Машину заносит буквально всегда, особенно на ручнике. В повороты авто входит плохо, а мотоциклы вообще с трудом дают угол в 90 градусов. Есть мелкие баги с исчезающим персонажем при загрузке, дерганные, а иногда пропадающие текстуры, не критично. DLC про байкеров и Тони Принса одновременно самостоятельные, но связаны квестом про бриллианты. Довольно интересно было наблюдать как разные стороны ищут их, но получают только проблемы. В дополнении про пропащих появляются новые чопперы, которые, к слову лучше управляются, чем мотоциклы из основной игры. Еще добавлена возможность вызвать фургон с оружием и броней, что слегка упрощает закуп перед миссиями. Разборки внутри банды, слежка фбр, озлобленность итальянской мафии, да еще и насмешки современных мотоциклистов, все это нужно разрулить новому лидеру. Суровые байкеры, гонки с битами в стиле Road Rash, тяжелая музыка, наркоразборки с бандами и пропахший табаком и алкоголем клуб. Колоритненько. Неплохое дополнение часов на 6. Про Тони очень хорошее длс. Много юмора, нелепых ситуаций и разнообразие мисси. Под конец рокстары решили отыграться и всунули все активности какие смогли. От банальных танцев и секса в клубном туалете, до взрыва яхты, похищения ж\д вагона прямо на ходу с вертолета. Концовка с бриллиантами, которая шла еще с основной сюжетки очень потешная. Проходится примерно за 6-8 часов. Это вторая игра, после первой части, имеющая DLC. Потраченного времени не жаль. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3780961884 P.S. 200, ♥♥♥♥ ДВЕСТИ голубей, Карл. Надеюсь предложившего сделать такое количество "коллекционок" уволили.

Good but it doesnt recognise newer gpus which leads to getting lower vram and sometimes characters get stuck, but overall its a good game.

Don't be fooled by everybody stating that it's a bad port and you shouldn't buy it. It is an awful port, but there is a mod called Fusion Fix that's really easy to instal. After that, it's a perfect experience on modern hardware. Solid 60/120 FPS experience (there are 2 missions that can only be played on 30fps), ultrawide support on my Odyssey G9 screen and decent mod support via nexus (Liberty Rush, Project Birds/Glass, Increased Draw Distance, etc) If you really like the story of GTA IV i would highly recommend to watch the Russian movies Brother (1997) and Brother 2 (2000) and the Pusher trilogy.

Bought this ages ago and played it plenty, now it locks me and requires a Rockstar Account to even start the game. Stay far away, buy yourself some nice dinner or something. Yikes

Almost 20 years later, and the game still manages to surprise me with each play-through. Easily the best game in the series next to San Andreas.

Excelente, muchos bugs. Se requiere un mod extra, FUSION FIX, de resto bastante jugable en 2026

Quick Summary Story: Revisiting Niko's story after all these years made me appreciate the smaller details I had missed the first time around, while the DLCs added different perspectives to the same events. Gameplay: The driving is still one of my favourite parts of the game. It can be challenging at first, but once you get used to it, it becomes really fun. Mechanics: Getting around Liberty City is enjoyable, with fast travel making it easier to reach locations, while races, stunt jumps and the DLC activities add more to do. Overall: A game that was absolutely worth revisiting, especially since I had forgotten so much of the story and had never played the two DLCs before. Grand Theft Auto IV – Revisiting Liberty City I decided to run this game back after playing it years ago. Back then, I mostly remembered the gameplay and some of its mechanics, especially the driving. I also remembered how much darker the game looked compared to other GTA games, with a much less colourful visual style. What I did not remember very well was the actual story. I remembered certain parts here and there, but I had forgotten a lot of Niko's background and many of the smaller details. With the game being on sale on Steam, I decided to pick it up again. I also had another reason to revisit it this time. I had never played either of the two DLCs, so this gave me a chance to finally experience them. Story This time around, I made sure to actually pay attention to the story. Since I had played the game years ago, I knew some of the major events, but I had forgotten enough that many smaller details felt new again. I paid more attention to Niko's background, the characters around him, and how everything develops throughout the story. It was a different experience compared to my first playthrough. Back then, I mostly played through the game without thinking too much about the story. This time, I paid more attention to the conversations and cutscenes, which made me appreciate it more. Gameplay & Mechanics The driving is still one of my favourite parts of the game. I know a lot of people dislike the driving in GTA IV because the cars feel heavier and take some time to get used to, but once I got used to it, I really enjoyed it. This time I played with a controller, and being able to control the speed more naturally made the driving feel much better. The main gameplay still holds up well. Missions are enjoyable, the shooting feels good enough, and fast travel makes getting around the city easier. The races were also fun. They could become annoying when I made a mistake, but I never felt like I needed a specific car to win them. World & Exploration Liberty City still has a great atmosphere. The darker colour grading is something I remembered from my first playthrough, and coming back to the game reminded me just how different it feels compared to the more colourful GTA games. There is plenty to do outside of the main story, although some activities were definitely more enjoyable than others. The biggest annoyance for me was collecting the pigeons. There are a lot of them, and keeping track of which ones I had already collected became more annoying than the actual activity. The stunt jumps were more enjoyable. I completed around five or six accidentally while doing missions and finished the remaining ones towards the end. Technical Issues & Achievement My first experience with GTA IV on PC was not great. Back then, I remember having quite a few bugs and needing to apply patches just to get the game working properly. I initially thought my system might not be good enough, but that same system later ran GTA V, so I realised the problem was more with the PC version itself. A lot of those issues have been fixed now, but there are still a few things worth knowing about. The final mission can have an issue where the required button input does not register properly at higher frame rates. I recommend using FusionFix or limiting the game to 30 FPS to avoid the problem. There are also some missions where failing means replaying a larger section because of limited checkpoints. I also happened to look up one achievement beforehand, and I am glad I did. Its timer counts more than just active mission time, so free roaming, cutscenes and mission failures can count as well. I finished the main story in around 30 hours without rushing or skipping cutscenes. The DLCs One thing I really liked about both DLCs is that they take place during the same timeline as the main game. Because of that, you get to see certain events from a different perspective and come across some interactions with characters from the main story. I will leave it at that to avoid spoilers, but I really liked how everything connects together. The Lost and Damned The Lost and Damned is shorter than the main game, and it also felt a little less polished compared to the second DLC. One of the biggest changes is the lack of fast travel. Since Johnny is always riding around on his bike, you should expect to spend a lot more time travelling to missions. You cannot simply call a taxi, so this is the only one where fast travel feels more restricted. The story itself is still really good. GTA V already shows what happens to Johnny later, but this DLC gives you more background on him. One small complaint I had was with the map. When selecting a location, the crosshair can be quite difficult to see sometimes, which made selecting locations more annoying than it needed to be. The Ballad of Gay Tony The Ballad of Gay Tony felt a bit more impactful to me. Even though all three stories have a few interactions with each other and show different perspectives of the same events, this DLC felt more rewarding overall, especially since I was also working towards the achievements. Luis was also a really nice character and brought some fresh air compared to Niko and Johnny. I still had a few complaints with some missions, especially the enemy waves. The chase scenes could also get annoying, as enemies could instantly spawn back behind you even after escaping. This was especially noticeable during the drug wars. Overall, I enjoyed The Ballad of Gay Tony more than The Lost and Damned. Final Thoughts Overall, revisiting GTA IV and finally playing both DLCs was absolutely worth it. I had forgotten a lot more of the game than I expected, especially when it came to the story. Playing through it again and paying attention to the smaller details made me appreciate Niko's story much more. The driving is still my favourite part, and the darker atmosphere gives the game its own identity. The pigeons were probably my least favourite activity, while the races and stunt jumps were more enjoyable. The two DLCs were also a great addition. I liked seeing the same timeline from different perspectives, and The Ballad of Gay Tony ended up being my favourite of the two. I am glad I decided to run GTA IV back after all these years. It gave me a chance to experience Niko's story again and finally play the two DLCs I missed the first time around.
