]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> @AuraHACK: You're cringing at the correct spelling? Odd.

It's adorable when US sources refer to the correct spelling of certain words as the 'British variant'.

Yes. The 'English' variant of the 'English' language. Heh.

It's like the makers/users of the Vuu trying to claim something about the Wii is incorrect.

Sorry, bad analogy, but I was trying to bring games into it.

PS - Colour, centre, theatre, etc.
It's even funnier that the one country on earth that is unable to wrap its collective head around metres and litres insists on having their own spelling.

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> Okay, ive read through most all of the comments and haven't found the answer im looking for. I am about 80% through the game. I have not used a single cheat yet. I've looked at the upcoming missions and I can tell that a few are going to be a pain. I will be tempted to use the health cheat. What I don't get is, how can the Restore health cheat disable more achievements then the restore and AND ammunition which only disables 1 achievement. My question is this, if I am stuck on a mission and just CANT resist and put in the restore health cheat, will that disable me from beating the game? Will it show up on my statistics that i cheated? The only achievement that the restore health and ammunition disables from what ive read is the Clean up the mean Streets achievement. If getting that achievement involved getting a cop car and taking out 20 criminals and I get that achievement then the only other thing that using that cheat would effect would be showing up on my stats? Usually if im going to go for achievements in the game, i would be going to unlock ALL achievements, and there is already one a achievement that i know I'll never unlock, and thats the kill a GTA4 dev in a multiplayer game. So what im asking is, if i use the restore health cheat while still trying to beat the game, will it disable me from beating the game and will it show up in the stats that i cheated?

Does anyone know if this cheat is reachable in the PS3 or XBox360 versions that were released? Rockstar's always leaving their secret hacks in for us to find later, after all! Hot coffee!

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> Maybe it's just because this is my first GTA (or because my gaming skills aren't "elite," per se), but I'm struggling with a lot of the missions. Particularly ones where you have to chase down and kill someone, like Ruff Rider (I probably failed that one 20 times). The Snow Storm seemed impossible until I found the speedboat.

I think part of it, like someone else mentioned, is that the auto-aim sucks for enemies right in front of your face. There'll often be some jerk right in front of me plugging me full of holes, but it just won't let me shoot him. And the blind-fire option doesn't seem to work like it should.

Anyway, I'm not using cheats because the only time I can seem to make myself stop playing is when I get fed up trying to beat a mission...

erlik

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> @ShaggE: That one took me a few (15) tries, but I didn't want to disable achievements (since the game saves after every mission). I did use a few cheats, but after finding out that playing online with a few friends in party mode was just as fun, I stopped.
And, I think that this new GTA has taken a more realistic and serious form. You cant have a jetpack, tank, flying cars, and crazy pedestrians because they want it to have a more serious feel. The previous GTAs (especially san andreas) were funny because of the outrageous "holy shit WTF!" moments. GTA 4 has a darker, more serious, yet still funny theme.
Also, it seems to me that GTA 4 is actually sayng drugs are bad, instead of good, since there are a ton of charachters that have addictions, and niko always passes up on these things after seenig how f**ed up these people are.

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> Yeah, if you think you don't need cheats to beat this game, then try replaying a few of the more challenging missions. Between a broken auto-aiming system, and a robotic duck-and-cover system, cheats are welcomed. I beat the game without cheating, and it would've been a hell of a lot easier if the game play worked like it should.

FP Bleentastic has cake

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> Just to add my own warning concerning "cheats" and saving.

I had to play through saints row twice because I "cheated".

I was near the end of the game, and there was a car that I had never seen once before. So I entered a code to spawn that car so I could check it out.

I drove the car around at high rates of speed, did some drifting, doughnuts, drivebys, then smashed it up good and ditched the wreckage.

Then I did a few missions, and saved my game for the night.

BIG MISTAKE

The save file was tainted and I couldn't unlock any more achievements using that save file, even after beating the game.

I had to start a new game from scratch (I only had 1 save file) and play through and beat the game again. Thankfully, things were a lot easier the second time around (I did all of the pimp missions first to get the pimp cane, which made 90% of the missions cakewalks).

lordargent

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> I've used the weapons cheat a few times while friends and I were just messing around. I hadn't played through the story yet, and we wanted to cause some general chaos, so.. Hey, free RPG, seemed like a good time.

But I always turned off the auto-save first and then turned it off without saving to be sure. I don't cheat for story mode.

Anyway, we found that unlike previous GTAs, we had a lot more fun causing mayhem without any cheats. It was really kind of boring to just shoot RPGs at cops. Much more fun to start with a knife and work your way up.

Cheats in GTA IV are just kinda bland.

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> @PresDNA: I bloody hope not, single player is your own business but that'd be low.

I'm going to ignore it this time, the lack of cheats this generation has severely improved my gaming ability (I did cheat a lot on GTA and a fair few other games in the past). But the apparent lack of them has meant I've had to up my game somewhat. I wasn't entirely useless, somewhere between crap and average (story of my life).

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> That's OK... autosave is COMPLETELY broken on the 360 anyways... I've never been able to leave mine on as it always overwrites my saves with one that's dozens of hours old, a save from when I was 2-4 missions into the game. Thanks R*... but I can't use autosave anyways... (oh, and as an update R* has NO FIX when I call support. The reps seem to think I'm making it up...)

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> @Excalibur:
Yeah, exactly. As long as the player doesn't complete any missions while cheating, the last save will still be legit. Or so it seems so far. I've been using that weapons cheat to goof around every once in a while, it's priceless. And necessary for those little self-initiated games of "how long can I last against the cops".

Thaddeus_McGee

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> lame the most epic thing about the first gta3 liberty city was that it had an epic cheat. make everyone attack eachother (which was totally badass but to make things even more epic) give everyone weapons. Complete mayhem was the game gta3 was the name. i think thats how they tested that riot game that didnt do so hot but oh man that was fun. We'd all see who can last the longest without getting killed. Even when you spawned you see rockets and grenades flying by with the screen constantly shacking as if the city was at war. I was hoping harder then i ever hoped before that they would add this but there are fewer cheats then last game and the game before. :( good game nonetheless

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> Am I the only one who is having real trouble getting the new controls down in this game? Feel free to lay into me and tell me I'm an idiot, but I bet there are a couple others out there who get plugged by cops when they are right infront of your face and you want to hit them, but instead do nothing because you keep hitting fire.

What I did was, I brought an Infernus with me and parked it right in front of the front door after taking out he outside guards. It was still there after the cutscene and the SWAT team stormed in. I blew right past them.

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> @thinlebowski: That's what makes the game more alive. If you just fast forward to your missions, it becomes more like a chore. I love the driving part of the game. Especially if you steal of those high powered cars. When I get tired of driving, I just call one of the cabs switch to cinematic camera view and enjoy the scenery. It's almost like watching a movie. This little subtle things is what separate this game to the rest. I kinda wish that after I complete a mission that I can replay it and watch it in the cinematic camera view.

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> @ShaggE: I was the same when I first did the mission, but I realize that if you just stay and try to kill all the cops that they'll just keep coming. The third time i just took off and got in the car and shook the cops off of me. I realize how easy the mission was after that. Sometimes I just think if there's a way to complete the missions without actually doing what you suppose to do.

thegunshow

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> I think there was some misunderstanding of what the cheats in GTAs do to your game. The problem was never that your game got "corrupted," it just was recorded that you had cheated and you could no longer get 100% completion if I remember correctly. If you saved after that you were screwed so most people just used cheats to goof around and then went back to an earlier save to complete the game. Also, as has been mentioned, you had to reload to turn some cheats off.

You'll still have just as much fun shooting down helicopters and taking out police by using the cheats. I do wish they had alot more cheats that let me do more things. Personally I think they should add more cheats so that i can get even more of my moneys worth out of this game.

kylenalepa

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> I have personally cheated on all the GTA games, but that's because I find the fun of these games is just going on a 1 man crusade to create as much havoc as I can. That's pretty much the the only reason I play the GTA series. I'll play the story mode until I unlock the entire state/city/whatever it is at the time and then it's just about me goofing around with rocket launchers/shotguns/etc.

I think out of the 3D GTA games the only one I ever actually beat was GTA III and I did that like a week or two before San Andreas came out. I was only playing it because I was bored and I figured I might as well beat it.

GTA IV though is a completely different egg. I'm finding the Niko character pretty likeable and I actually want to see what happens in the story so I'm going to finish the game.

It's a pure waste of time and it's a part of the GTA mission design that I think does not deserve the game to get full marks.

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> Honestly the game isn't that hard. A lot of failing missions just has to do with knowing exactly what to do, which usually takes only one retry. I understand that people enjoy the cheats, but, they definitely aren't a necessity to beating the game.

BTW, they REALLY need to just disable auto-aim for multiplayer completely. A person on foot shouldn't be able to take out a car of people in 5 seconds.

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> I love how disinformation spreads like wildfire on the internet.

Using the cheats disables the achievements, yes. But if you still want to get them, just save your game, go back to the Xbox dashboard, and boot into GTA4 again. All the weapons and ammo you used cheats to get stay with you, and the save file is clean to get achievements on. Done this myself quite a few times. And to the person who is worried about how it keeps track of how many times you cheated, who the hell cares? Noone sees it, it doesnt appear on your gamer profile, just your individual stats that only you, yourself get to look at. So if seeing a number next to the "Number of times cheated:" section really makes you depressed, then just off yourself and be done with it.

People can cheat if they want, people who sit on an internet forum dissing the people who get enjoyment out of the way they like to play should go join a religion, maybe start a Jihad of your own since you take everything so seriously.

It's a big BIG pain in the ass having to whip out your phone and scrolling to that goddamn menu in the middle of a firefight though, especially because Niko doesn't know how to run and talk on the phone at the same time -_-

And to be extrasuperreallistic the wanted level takes a few seconds to disappear after the call, you know.. cuz of all that paper work, and she had to make a few calls of course, maybe ran into Betty from accounting, asking about the baby and little Billy.

I tend to stick fairly close to my own character in games. Not that I go around killing people IRL, but only do it when necessary in games. In GTAIV, I've also dated Michelle exclusively (haven't picked up a single hooker lol). IRL I've been faithful to the same girl for 20 years. Old habits are hard to break.

Like some people above, I think I've used cheats in most of the GTA games. But usually I'd get bored before the end (in GTA:SA I never even got into it) and use them to mix things up a bit.

But IMO GTA IV has a quality way beyond the previous games, and I'm nowhere near bored at 20% into the game. I've looked at some cheats, but only for hints on the best ways to make money, raise your respect, find out what sort of things there are to discover/unlock, etc, etc.

I suspect I will still be playing this in 6-12 months time. That is, unless L.A. Noir has the same sort of quality.

So far I haven't even explored all the possible ramifications of some stuff.
eg. How would Michelle take it if you robbed somebody when out on a date with her?

Tanks aren't "realistic" in NYC, so they're out. Just like jetpacks, jet skiis, parachutes, plane-flying, diving, and katana weapons.

Also, there is no tank cheat, but any word if getting to a six-star wanted level brings the tanks a'comin'? I haven't gotten to try yet.

oh, so some achievements are restricted, i'm glad i play games for achievements.

GTAIV makes it too easy for any missions where chase is involved, there is always a high-powered vehicle right next to where the mission starts, be it a bike or a vehicle.

Also, the revamped FOS of the cops are just ridiculous, its too damn easy to lose them.

I remember the riot code. That was awesome! My friend and I would play multiplayer with riot mode on and attack everyone with samurai swords. Also there was this glitch when we activated invincibility and attacked each other with samurai swords we could chop off each others heads and walk around headless with blood spewing out. I couldn't stop laughing when we found that out.

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> I have to admit... The Snow Storm mission drove me to cheat. I simply had to use the Wanted Level code. But I promised myself that on my second playthrough, I'll finish The Snow Storm legitimately. Any other cheats I use in GTAIV will be solely for when I'm just screwing around.

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> @RTW: I think because there is no tank in the game. They left it out. Why... i forgot.

All cheats including the achievements they disable.

I actually prefer games with cheats, in this case especially - later missions get extremely frustrating, and nowadays cheatcodes are a sign of quality. Even with all cheats turned on, you'd need your 20+ hours to finish GTA4 without missing much of the sidestories, while you'd waltz through most other recent A+++ titles in less than 3 hours.

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> Yep used cheats on every GTA to beat the main story except for GTAIV. Was proud of that fact. Don't blame people though.

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> Why isn't there a tank cheat?

When I was playing and wanted to have some fun, I noticed there was no Tank cheat and I was like.. "WTF". No tank cheat is like the core essence of GTA. Also the Annihilator doesn't have missiles? WTF again.

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> just beat it yesterday with out cheats, wasent that hard. I actually used to use cheats on all the previous gta's and only beat vice city

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> @mexfreak86: Neither did I, til my Vice City save on PC was totally borked using a cheat. There's always a risk, I guess, no matter how small

Luke Plunkett

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> Yeah this game is pretty easy. If you ever get arrested more than once then I don't know why or how.

flukielukie

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> aww no riot mode cheat

DaveyPwnckett

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> I going to try and beat it clean. Then I'll go back and use the cheats for some extra fun.

Try it in-game if you didn't know about it.

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> @mexfreak86: I don't see how these ones could corrupt the save files, but in earlier ones there were codes that gave all the peds guns, and made them homicidal maniacs, basically filling the game worth with hundreds of You. The only way to reverse these effects was to reload an old save, so if you saved over your only one, the game basically became broken as you couldn't turn them off, and you couldn't do any more missions.

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> Should be fun to mess around with, like previous games. Nothing more than that, though.

SpadeAce

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> I always save cheats for after I beat the game. Adds longevity. Not that this game needs it...

Car2oon

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> also if u use cheats, it shows up on ur stats and stuff that ur a cheater...not a rep you may want...

Darthearl

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> Cheats FTW! Only I have to get all the achievements before cheating (will never happen).

AUAnonymous

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> I never understood why the cheats can corrupt save files. I remember on GTA:SA the games always warned me about saving the game when cheats were active because it could corrupt the save data. I just don't get it.

mexfreak86

]]> <![CDATA[Stuck On GTA IV? Try These Cheats, You Cheater]]> The game ain't that hard people. Just play it.
