Now keep in mind this was a teaser trailer so don’t expect a full blown video preview but at least now we know where the game will take place (or at least part of it). As predicted by many GTA IV will take place in Rockstar’s equivalent of New York City, Liberty City and will put players in the boots of a Russian mobster (or at least that’s how it seemed). From what we saw, the game looked absolutely stunning running on Rockstar’s proprietary RAGE (Rockstar Advanced Game Engine) engine and Microsoft claim that the entire trailer was not pre-rendered; it was in fact running in real time on next gen consoles.
Expect tons of information in the days to come but till then head over to our downloads section for a glimpse of a gorgeously rendered Big Apple (albeit a semi-fictional one).
