Version 0.3 - Just the frame of the guide set up and a bit of the story. It’s
a bit of a mess, but I hope to clean this up once I have a sense of how the
game unfolds.
(5/1/08)
Version 0.5 - I would guesstimate I am about halfway through the main game,
and as I am tackling all the side stuff as I go I think this guide is shaping
up pretty well.
(5/3/08)
Version 0.7 - Happy Cinco de Mayo! I think I’m closer to the end.
(5/5/08)
Version 1.0 - Finished the walkthrough only, and all I got are cheats and a
link for completionists. The rest is soon to come.
(5/6/08)
Version 1.1 - Just added Deal to the end of the game. Took a day off, sorry,
geez. Fixed the Okami controls too...
(5/7/08)
Version 1.2 - Added a few reader tips - keep them coming guys. Also added 360

* 1. A Brief Foreword *
*****************************************************************************
I mean, if you really want to get harsh, about the only thing this game does
wrong is allow money to magically appear in your hand (though if you have a
credit card that would explain that), and there is no snow. Other than that,
this game does everything right. If you actually say, "I am tired of playing
this game," you are a crazy. The only reason to stop playing is to eat, sleep,
or carry on with your life.
If you want to know why this game is so amazing, just drive around the city
at night, while it’s raining - there you go. Just imagine what GTA5 will be
like...

*****************************************************************************
* 3. Starter Tips ( TIPS333 ) *
*****************************************************************************
#1. Jacob is the key - once you meet Jacob, and after he is a friend to go
hang out with from time to time, be sure to get him to like you to about 80%
or so (check the stats menu). If you do, you will gain the option to call
him up and request guns. He will drive to a nearby location and you can go
there for discounted firearms. Which is great for not just the money saved, but
also for those times you get busted and need some quick pieces.
#2. In fact, keep ALL your friends close - once anyone is a buddy to hang out
with, it’s best to entertain them. Find out what they like and do that with
them a lot and once they like you enough you will gain a benefit.
#3. Save the pigeons and stunts for later - yes, throughout your travels you
will run into glowing birds and stunts to take on. But it is best you save
those for later if you want them at all, mainly because you will find a list
on the internet and you will need to follow that to a T, so getting a random
one while not going for them all is a bad idea.
#4. Check the maps - not just the pause screen map which does wonders for
finding where to go, but also the physical map that comes in the box if you
bought the game. The physical map has all the locations of things already there
for you. And if you want to make pencil notes on your map for whatever, that
is cool too (like pigeons you get on accident or whatever).
#5. No right on red - even though the driving mechanics are more realistic
than ever, you can still drive like a madman right in front of the cops.
However, it is a good idea to slow things down a bit for the cars you don’t
know how to handle. The drive buttons are contact sensitive, so if you lay off
of them just a bit you won’t go as fast. Especially take it easy on the
corners.
#6. Brief info - in the pause menu is a screen tab called "Brief" and if you
are lost on a mission, somehow, go there to see what you need to be doing.
#7. Take turns like you would in real life - well, if you have driven a car,
and it’s very possible most people playing this mature game are still teething,
you would know that you take turns easy, but while turning you press the gas.
Well, same thing in this game. For turns, approach, let off the gas and brake
just a bit, then make the turn, and as you are turning press hard on the gas,
and you should take off nice and smoothly in the direction you wish to go while
at a decent speed. Of course each car is different, but at least you’ll have a
leg up on driving. *If you want to do hardcore turns, you should apply just a
touch of the handbrake after you’ve used the normal brake - check that.
#8. Yellow-lined garages - if you notice outside each safehouse on the side of
the road is a yellow box with the words "Residents Parking Only" in it. You
can store two cars here, or one car and one bike. Best to store fast cars, like
the Turismo, and cop cars at these parking spots.
#9. Runnin’ away - so you bump into a cop car and get one wanted star. The
easiest thing to do is let them get out, then speed away. Check your radar to
see where the backup is coming from, and once out of the wanted area if you
just turn and drive away from the backup they will keep going. It’s called
"giving them the slip."
#10. The radar lines help, or they can hurt - the yellow and other colored
lines on your radar that are meant to help you get to a destination can
sometimes get in the way. Follow them if you are just starting the game, almost
everyone will, but as you progress it might be smarter to look on the map to
see where you are going, then just follow your own knowledge of the city to
get around. This isn’t a big tip, just something to think about.
#11. Check the options - be sure to tinker around with the Display options in
the pause menu. It can make it seem like a different game just by adding some
brightness, but never move the sliders all the way in one direction. Also make
sure you turn on subtitles and after a time you may want to change the in-game
volume.
#12. Pistol-whipped - the pistol is probably one of your better long-range
weapons, and the ammo is easy to get. It’s the same philosophy as in Resident
Evil 4: use the handgun until you run out of ammo or need a bigger gun.
#13. Counter-kill - while in melee you can perform counter moves. This is done
by pressing the run button while locked on, and you should avoid the hit and
then be able to attack for a deadly combo. Not used much, but good to know.

*****************************************************************************
GTA IV Walkthrough
============================
Welcome Back to Liberty City ( WBLC111 )
============================
The Cousins Bellic
------------------
*NOTE: At any time, go to the pause menu and look under Brief to see the
mission you are on.*
Once you have the car, notice that there will be yellow routes on your mini
map that help you get to where you need to be easier. Just drive around the
obstacles and get on the road, follow the map, and you’ll soon be at the
"Mansion", and at some point learn how to change the radio station.
After Roman leaves, go take a nap to save your game. Either check the controls
in the pause menu, use your booklet or up above in this guide, or just wait
for the game to tell you, just make sure you have all the controls down at
some point.
*NOTE: You can watch TV, but not now, this is the wrong time to watch TV in
a video game. Later.*
Now walk out the door, down the steps, and on the street you learn how to run
and sprint (hold to run, tap to sprint). Go across the street and buy a
hotdog for $5. Feel free to change the perspective; you have long, close, and
over-the-shoulder views.
Now go steal a car, hopefully out of sight of cops, and then drive to the "R"
on your map to meet Roman.
It’s Your Call
--------------
After that, note of the message of how to zoom in and out of your radar, and if
you hold that button, the view stays zoomed out. Now get in the car and drive
along the yellow line on the radar. And even though the rules of the road in
real life seem to apply most to this game than previous games, feel free to
drive through red lights and into oncoming traffic, but at your own risk.
Once at the marker, just stay still after Roman leaves. Now just wait for a
phone call and answer it, then keep waiting. After a time, you say "and these
must be the loan sharks" and that is your cue to press the UP button to bring
up your cell phone in the lower right corner. Open the menu, all of which the
messages tell you, and open the phonebook to call Roman.
When he gets back in, hurry up and swing around the block to go back to the
cab depot, which is where you picked up Roman; so if you forgot the route, just
follow the yellow route, easy. No need to go too fast, as you will lose the
loan sharks very quickly if you half know how to drive. Be sure to take him to
the side of the building, and not the garage you came out of.
After the mission is over, feel free to mess around with your phone. Yes, you
can change the ringtone, ring style, and a few other things in the options
menu. You can even go into multiplayer from here, and if you use the sleep
function, the storyline will be stopped until you turn it back off; so best not
to touch the sleep button.
*NOTE: Any PS3 people that go into the Sixaxis tutorial thing, don’t. In fact,
all Sixaxis controls are off by default, so keep it that way. If you actually
go into the tutorial by mistake, bring up the phone again to exit because
I have no clue what they want you to do as a stunt; I flipped forward and
backward and nothing.*
Now, after a while you should get a text message from Roman, so feel free to
go drive around and take in the sights until then. When you get the message,
bring up your phone, open it, and then call Roman who will tell you to come
back to the shop. Just follow the "R" on your map and you should get there,
or use the map in the pause menu if you get lost.
Three’s A Crowd
---------------
After the scene, get in the cab and drive to the south and honk the horn to
call the girls in the car. Take them all the way straight north and then Roman
gives you a call.
*NOTE: The radio station WKTT is a good one to check out.*
Now you must find some threads. Go back south and you will hit Hob-something-
or-other; just go in. You have some glasses, terrible hats, boots, sneakers,
jackets, a few kinds of pants, and just a nice collection of clothes all over.
Remember, try on whatever you want, don’t buy if you don’t want them, and know
that there are other colors in most of the clothes available. I say just buy
some blue sneakers and that is enough, but you can make yourself as terrible as
you want to look.
Exit the shop and call Roman, then feel free to call you new love interest,
Michelle (in the phonebook on your phone). Now drive back north, up the street
to the "M" marker to meet your girl.
*NOTE: Don’t forget you can save at Roman’s house at any time.*
Bleed Out
---------
However, during the drive you should get a call from Roman to help him out,
which is at the "R" on your map, and you get blue street routes as you get
closer. Once at the basketball courts, get out of you car and run around
and in through the opening. After a quick scene, use lock on and beat up the
two bad guys, which can be done by just mashing the attack buttons if you want.
Now Dardan will be driving away, so run to your car, wait for Roman to get in,
and then follow the red dot on your map. Just follow the dot as best you can
and at some point he will stop near the docks and run up some stairs, so get
out and follow him to an empty room and beat him up. Take his knife and then
back in the car.
*NOTE: The same buttons to change station will change your weapon, or at this
point just put away your knife.*
Drive back to the depot, and let Roman out. Michelle should give you a text,
so read it and then call, or just go meet her.
First Date
----------
When you go into her house, you are given a brief and highly sensational
rundown of the "activities" throughout the city.
As for the date, just calmly drive her down to the "funfair" to the south end
of this island. Sorry, no funfair today, but instead go up the ramp and take a
left to find the bowling alley door along the boardwalk. Go in, ask the cashier
to bowl, and go pick a lane.
Okay, so move around with the LS, then pull the RS back and throw it forward to
throw the ball, and you can use the RS while the ball is rolling to apply some
aftertouch. Best to move a bit to the left, just a few steps. And feel free to
skip Michelle’s turn if you want. Don’t forget to check the score, and you are
Niko, FYI. Also, don’t apply too much aftertouch, just a nudge. You guys just
play five rounds, so feel free to win as she should get around a 30 or so.
After that, just drive her back to her place and the date is a success. Now,
you can call her for a date, but it is best to wait for her to call you at
this time. So for now, just go save your game, or visit Roman.
However, go up to Roman’s shop and just up the street will be a guy, which is
a green marker on the map. Go up to the weirdo and all he does is give you
$100, odd but we’ll take it. Now go meet Roman.
Easy Fare
---------
Just take the crappy cab up north to the area where Michelle lives and pick
up Jermaine. Drive him back a bit to the south and into an alley. After a
moment the cops will appear and break up the deal, so just drive forward, on
the grass, and start driving away from the flashing zone on the radar that is
the cops chasing you. You need to make sure you don’t cause much trouble, like
running into cars and people, or else that will bring more attention to you.
Good driving is the key to outrunning and staying low when out of the zone.
Once you are out of the area, just park the car somewhere and your wanted level
will go away.
*NOTE: A good tip to driving is using the handbrake.*
Once you shake them, take Jermaine to his next place, somewhere in the center
of the area you’ve been in for this early part of the game. Feel free to use
this Pay N Spray to fix your car as the first paint job is on the house. Also
remember that this place will clear your wanted levels, and is it marked on
your map.
After that, make your way back to Roman’s, or save.
Jamaican Heat
-------------
*NOTE: This may be a good time to turn on subtitles in the options menu.*
Just go up the street and take a right, then honk the horn to call Little Jacob
in. Drive up and to the east a bit and you are given a pistol. Drive him to the
alley and then go up the ramp to the marker and crouch. Just wait for the
gangsters to show, then follow the messages that help you lock on and shoot.
Kill the first three, then wait for one more guy to appear on the roof up above
and get him. Then go down and collect the ammo and then get back into the car.
Drive him a bit further east and that’s it. Kudos if you understood a word
he said.
*NOTE: While locked-on, press the RS up to point your crosshair at the guy’s
head.*
After that, answer the call by Roman, and after a bit of time, Vlad will call
you. Answer and then go toward the safe house, save if you wish, and then go
meet Vlad. You will get a call from Little Jacob too, but for now just go to
Vlad. Roman will also call you too at some point. But just go to Vlad across
the street from your safe house.
===========
Vlad’s Jobs ( VLJO222 )
===========
Bull in a China Shop
--------------------
Vlad asks you to teach some guy a lesson. This guy will be a bit more to the
north than you are used to going. Once there, talk to the man and then you
must find something to throw at his window. Turn around and go to the dot on
your radar to find a brick. Pick it up, bring it back, aim, and toss it at his
window to get the money. Now drive it back to Vlad.
Now just wait a bit longer for a text message that he has another job for you
and go do it.
Hung Out to Dry
---------------
Just go up the street and hang a right. Walk to the marker and the dude will
split. Run through the back door and then get in a car, tap a button to
quickly hotwire, and then chase after him. All I did was ram his van into a
wall and then pinned him, but I suppose he may hit an end point, or maybe you
can pull him out of the van. Either way, corner him to make the success.
Again, back to Vlad.
Clean Getaway
-------------
After one long scene, you will find a bat on the ground, but getting it will
replace the knife, so it’s up to you. Walk down the street and then up the
ramps and stairs to get up to wait for the train. Get in like you would a
car and then note the camera angles, or just skip to the destination.
Now down the steps and a short walk down the road to find the Blista Compact,
a car. You can use a stun punch, or just beat the guys to death, then in the
car. Drive it back south as Vlad calls, and then you need to take a quick
detour to a car wash. Do so and then back south.
At this point you may have a man-date with Roman, so feel free to pick him up
and take him to the bar or Cabaret Club (check your map). If you go to the
Cabaret Club, just go in and take a seat in the booth. It’s actually a wee
bit entertaining, though a bit lame too - maybe just go to the bar. Either way,
you can make a man-date whenever you want. Actually, you can still go to the
bar, but going there just makes you drunk, and if you drive, let’s just say
it’s a bad thing all around. Do not drink and drive, period. Just take Roman
home, and give him a kiss too.
Anyway, on with Vlad’s jobs.
Ivan the Not So Terrible
------------------------
Well, just make your way to Roman’s shop, but Ivan will already by speeding
away, so chase him. After some sharp turns a big jump or two, you guys will end
at a construction yard. You will learn how to climb ladders, so climb all of
them up to the crane. You’ll see him make a leap onto a roof, so you do the
same (you have a jump button FYI). Always jump or just sprint and you’ll
leap across the rooftops. Follow Ivan to the edge of the last roof where he
will be left on the side. Just go meet him and wait for the options to save or
kill him pop up. It’s best to spare him, as you get your money either way, and
something extra way later in the game.
-----
This is when I got a call from Michelle about a date, so you should be ready
for a call now or later, or maybe before. Just go to her and you will get more
markers on the map. Go there and find the Restaurant to the south and take
her there; you can set markers on the map too. When you take her home you can
try your luck, but it’s best to just tell her goodbye. Try your luck on the
next date.
Buy anyway, no more Vlad quests for now, so onto Little Jacob.
===========================
In the Jaws of a Loan Shark ( JAWS333 )
===========================
Concrete Jungle
---------------
Drive him a bit east, toward the airport, and after you let him off, go and
wait in the back alley on the left. After the call, just ram straight into the
three fleeing dealers, and hopefully you get them in one charge. If not, feel
free to drive them down in the streets, but it’s best to just jump out and pop
some rounds into them as they do have guns. Once they are done, go back to the
front for Jacob.
Now go to the second location and get out with Jacob. Follow him to the door
and take cover. The cover system is Gears of War style. Just pop out and shoot
the guy on the stairs, then go look through the window, and yes, you can blind-
fire, but it’s best to pop out and fire. Then go in, kill two more enemis,
and then the spoils are yours. There are guns, a first aid kit, and a shotgun,
so pick it all up and get back in the car. Drive Jacob back and that’s all
from him.
-----
Now that Jacob has no more work for you, feel free to go on dates with either
Roman or Michelle (and I hope you realize you are just hanging out with Roman
and you do not actually have him as a love interest), but when you call
people, be aware of the time of day, for Michelle anyway. For Roman, you can
go to a number of places. If you do go with Roman, feel free to drive north
to the Strip Club, just don’t get lost and don’t forget to pay the toll. Now,
I will say nothing of going to the strip club, but it is a big improvement
from the last game - where is some hot coffee when you need it?
Upon him liking you a lot, which I assume taking him to the strip joint will
do, then he will like you enough to give you free cab calls whenever you
like, just like you set up the strip club outing. As for Michelle, on the
second date you should get the Darts place on your map, so set a marker there
and take her out. For the darts game, just chip away at your score, and when
you get down to 20 or less, start planning so that you can hit a double score
to reach zero; double scores are on the outer edges, so if you have ten points
left you will need to hit the tiny sliver of five to get ten and double out.
Aiming is not hard, just takes a wee bit of patience, and oh yeah, don’t take
forever to throw either.
Once you’ve won, take her home and try your luck. Darts and the diner are her
thing, so hopefully you can get a taste of her "hot coffee", or in this case,
"tell me interesting things!"
Now is time for Roman’s job, not just a man-date.
Uncle Vlad
----------
Just get a ride and head over to your old friend. Use the shotgun if you want
and once the first two goons are dead, run out the door and then get on your
ride to chase down Vlad. Just catch up to him and the dock and get out to
confront him. As he is talking, lock on and notice the flashing reticle, that
means you can execute him. Shoot and then you get a nice long cutscene.
===================
Out of the Dumpster ( DUMP444 )
===================
Now that Vlad is done for, just give Roman a normal call. Go down toward the
Pay N Spray to meet him.
Crime and Punishment
--------------------
Okay, so you wonder where the police station is right? Well, I don’t know. But,
I do know that if you run into a cop car, then speed away, and then get out on
foot and run, once you lose the wanted level you can come back and maybe the
cop’s car will be there if they got out and chase you. That’s the only way I
can think of getting a car at this time.
*NOTE: Upon checking the physical map that came with the game, I learned
there is a police station down the road of your safe house. Even better, there
is an empty police car out in the front waiting for you. Just hotwire and run
away and you got a police car the easy way.*
Once you have a squad car you need to pull over three vans and check them
for TV’s. Just track down each marker, put on our sirens and stay behind them,
and once the message at the bottom says to get and check them, do it. Just do
this for one more car, and once you find the third one, that will be the one
of course. A guy with a gun will try to stop you, so either kill him or just
jump in the van and speed away. Drive the van to the garage and the first
mission for Faustin is done.
After that, make your way all the way south to go to Faustin’s home.
Do You Have Protection?
-----------------------
After the weird scene, drive Dimitri all the way to the sex shop, should be
second nature to us all. Just go in and then target the first guy, then the
second guy, and once you are told, shoot the middle guy in the leg. Now follow
Dimitri back to the car, but no need to rush too fast now; just make it a
nice, slow stroll back outside - oh yeah!
Now drive him north to the gun shop, get out, and go inside. Pick up the Micro-
SMG on the right and that’s it, it’s on the house. Now get back in your car and
go back to Faustin’s house, easy.
You should get a text message after from Little Jacob, as you can tell because
he no use good grammar. Just make your way to his place.
Shadow
------
Yeah, if you thought Jacob was spittin’ something nasty, this old dude isn’t
even speaking English - he must be a professor at a college.
Anyway, make your way all the way to the northern island, the one with the
lap dance store, but you can get on the island from another route, but still
gotta pay the toll. Once there, just walk behind the dealer, but Roman calls
at a bad time, so sprint after the dealer for the rest of the way. The trick is
once he goes down into a pit area, he will go through a door, then he will go
through the next door, not up the stairs. Then jump the fence, go around the
cement fence and go through a door, and this time you will go up all the
flights of stairs. When he is on his level, shoot the lock, and then take cover
and be ready for three enemies, all of which are easy with the shotgun if you
still have it. Once they are dead, mission is complete.
*NOTE: Perhaps Roman won’t call, or maybe if he does, don’t answer.*
Now you can call Jacob whenever you want to ask for work, like you can right
now. But first, there is another drug dude that needs our help. A good thing
to do is get him to like you just like Roman does, so if you want a man-date,
go play pool. Pool is fun, just follow the messages to get you aim right,
then shoot just like in bowling. Best to use the stick view, and the angle you
are given is usually a good one.
*NOTE: By a job this time, we mean a "side quest" kind thing, where it’s not
crucial and not an official mission. It does help them like you more though.
It’s the same deal with Roman and his jobs by cell phone.*
Brian’s Rock
------------
If you go to your safe house, to the south you will run into the same crack
head from Roman’s place, the guy that gave you a Ben Franklin. Just get a car,
drive him north, and after that, just drive him to his destination. Simple
$200.
Now go the Faustin’s next mission at the Cabaret House.
Final Destination
-----------------
Just make the long drive to the northern island, you get a call when over the
bridge, and then make your way to the train station. Go up the steps and have
your gun ready, any gun. Quickly waste his goon, pick up his gun, then leap
down onto the rails, watch out for trains, and then leap onto the other side.
You REALLY want to shoot him before he gets to his Banshee, a car, not that
thing from Halo. Either shoot him after you shoot the goon, shoot him on the
stairs, or do what I did and shoot him as he gets into his car. If not, I’m
sure it is a brilliant chase, but let’s try to avoid it.
After that you will get a call from Dimitri, and you should get a text from
Roman about some lady friends of his. And since you are closer to Roman, go see
him.
Logging On
----------
Just go to the east a bit and enter the net cafe. Just log on to a computer,
click the mail icon at the top, read the message, reply, and you’re done, you
may log out.
However, there are quite a lot of things you can do on this virtual computer.
Aside from looking up singles, at the homepage you can buy ringtones, but your
phone isn’t good enough; you can still listen to them though. Then you have
tons of links to check out, all of them legit, but also pointless. So, log out
and the mission is over.
Should get an message to check your email, but we’ll do that later. For now,
just go to Faustin at his home.
No Love Lost
------------
Just go west down the road to run into the daughter and biker. After he takes
off, get on the bike and follow him, taking note of how to shoot while on the
bike. If you can take him out while on the long stretch of road, good. If not,
he will join up with his gang somewhere around the bricked area, then just
follow them a short distance into the park and they should get out to gun fight
ya. So just get off and gun them each one down. Once you do, mission is a
success.
Could be a date with Michelle or whatever, then go to Faustin’s house again.
Rigged to Blow
--------------
Just drive north until you get near the truck, and get in. Then go north to get
on the bridge to Bohan, the northern island you’ve been to before, and be sure
to not crash, or just drive like a normal driver if possible. Just cross the
bridge, go into the garage down the street, and after the scene run south until
you get your money and a call.
==================
Promising Ventures ( VENT555 )
==================
Now go back across the bridge and you should get a call from Roman about a job
from Brucie. However, notice there is a green guy marker by the darts place,
which is close to the bridge entrance. Go meet him if you can; check the map.
Russian Hit
-----------
Get in your car or another and then drive to the east. Just get to either side
of the alley and get the jump on the gangsters. You can play cover, or just
jump out and blast away - your call. Just five of them and then it’s over.
Thanks for helping Badman, or whatever his name may be.
Go save if you like and then go to the "B" on your radar to meet Brucie down
by the docks.
Search and Delete
-----------------
Okay, so like the last time, you again must find a cop car. Instead of getting
into trouble and running away, or dialing 911 to get them to you, I have found
an empty cop car; and if you check the map that comes with the game in the
box, all the police stations are on it. This one is down the street where your
safe house is, just a bit to the north. Once you break into it, a cop will
come for you, so quickly hotwire and then run away until your star goes away.
Now that you have some cop wheels, stay parking until Brucie calls, then access
the police computer while parked. Go to the search, then by name, and then
type in Lyle Rivas. Once you’ve marked him on the radar, go north to where
Michelle lives and his house is at the intersection. Get out, go through the
front door, and hit the marker.
Yep, another chase. This one can go on for quite a while, so try to flip him
on the long highway. But, the trip does end when you get to Bohan island, and
then you just chase him down and take him out however you want. That’s it.
PMP 600
-------
You can go to Brucie for another job, but now is a good time to check your
email at @, the place east of Roman’s. Go there, check your emails, and one
will be a request by Brucie to find him a PMP 600. Doesn’t matter if you drove
one over here, you need to get a certain one by a carwash to the east. Go
there, beat up the three dudes if you want, and when you do steal the car make
sure to not bang it up too much. If you do, take it to the Pay N Spray if it’s
just mangled. Take it to his garage and you should get over $1000.
