Niko after literally crashing the helicopter to the bridge: *"Why can't people drive in this country?"*

“Don’t move and please have your insurance documentation or credit card ready” is what makes gta 4 so realistic

I REALLY liked the less weighty ragdoll physics in GTA 4. It was so great shooting people up and actually disrupting their ability to shoot and move with bullets. Also, enemy guns used to go off in GTA 4 when they dropped them.
I'll never forget shooting a shotgun out of someone's hands in 4, and they fell forward on to it as it hit the ground, only for it to fire buckshot up into their chin which killed them and sent them standing up again a little bit before they collapsed.
Also, shooting people on stairs was amazing.

Your character saying nothing when calling 911 in gta 5 is immersion breaking.I've always liked how Niko has to specify his location in gta 4.

Gta V felt like a movie,
Gta IV felt like an experience...

My favorite that you left out was that melee combat was by far better in GTA 4. I loved how it would do like RDR--where you beat them up but not kill them, only to have them stagger off by themselves later or be loaded into an EMS. Instead, in GTA5, everybody you hit is just dead and there is no "injured" status. Every EMS never rescues anybody and they just arrive and leave after making their report. With GTA 4, it left you with the illusion that you just messed someone up by they were hauled away and lived.

I always found it cool how in GTA IV you could go inside every building that had a mission, and they all had different interiors. Then GTA V you just can't. Then in RDR2 you can again. Hell there are even buildings you can go into in RDR2 that didn't have anything to do with the story or stranger missions, they are accessible just for the fun of it

The gta 4 swat was much better in my opinion as they had multiple appearances and actually resembled modern swat

ONE OF THE MOST UNDERRATED THINGS ABLUT GTA4 is how you can literally just pick up anything off the ground and throw it at people lol. I loved the underground fighting club in gay tony and how you could go inside of the hospitals. Other small things such as jumping in place and be able to simply just push as many times as you want instead of punching by pressing b and no holding the trigger. Gta4 is such a great game

Also in Gta 4, npc will not killed instantly from melee weapon and gunshot. They will first lie in ground after their health depleted, and after a while they will run away from there while injured. They will only truly dead if beaten or gunshot many times and will die immediately from headshot. Meanwhile gta 5, npc will immediately die even if using punch

There is another detail in gta 4, Niko can not specify his location if he is far at sea or high in the air, which leads to a special set of dialogues between Niko and the operator when you dial 911

I’m personally fond of the wasted/busted screen in GTA IV. You have the ability to zoom around you, and it added a different atmosphere to the game.

[epicdude]

Being drunk is better in GTA4 as well, as it's just being in ragdoll mode, buy you can still stand up and control where you go, but simply stepping off the curb onto the road and Niko will fall over sometimes. And you will fall down stairs where drunk.

GTAV you can still climb ledges and shit like that. Which doesnt make sense.

[eoghanoriordan]

For the buzzard missile one, gta5 makes more sense, the missiles are in a pod, they can’t drop and activate, they’d lunch straight out, gta4 would make sense if it was a rocket pylon, like the guided rockets from an Apache

4:19 the most realistic part of the entire video

[Gordanovich]

As much as Roman calling you to go bowling was annoying AF, the _ability_ to go bowling, or to play pool, to go in a burger place, an internet cafe, it all helped to make GTA4 more immersive.
I've never felt immersed in GTA5, I've never felt like I was actually in a city.

You should also mention the car weights from IV, in V it feels like any vehicle that a pedestrian is driving or is parked automatically has more weight than the car you are in, because pedestrians can easily push you around and out of the way while you hitting them to try to push them will barely do anything, in IV you could push cars around easily, a Dukes can easily push around a Dukes, a Sultan can’t easily push something like a Semi or Fire Truck, and a Semi or Fire Truck can plow through crowds of vehicles, this added on to how fun the driving was in the game. Play IV and notice how your car doesn’t stop almost immediately when pushing through cars unlike V.

[TwistLosi]

The rockets shooting straight forward from the chopper in GTA5 are actually correct, these are based on unguided rocket pods in real that fire straight out of the pod unlike guided missiles that drop and launch.

GTA IV (including the dlcs) has the most interesting characters ❤️
And of course the small amazing details in GTA IV makes the game unforgettable

I like the hand to hand combat in GTA 4. Especially if you time the counter right, you could disarm the opponent if he was wielding a knife.
