Got this from Filefront.com:

British game magazine GAMES TM featured an article with some new tasty tidbits of Rockstarâ€™s upcoming GTA IV. Without further ado, here are some of the more interesting information straight from the article:Liberty Cityâ€™s equivalent of Times Square will be called â€œStar Junctionâ€Niko has a high amount of detail. His facial expressions, movements, and his overall sense of self are all done to a high detail.Nikoâ€™s cell phone will play a big role in the game. One example is the ability to call someone in order to deliver guns to a nearby location.Something as simple as a taxi ride can be handled in different ways such as simply car-jacking the driver and taking off, or actually getting in the cab and being a passenger, turning into a first-person view and being able to take in the sights and sounds of the cityAccording to Rockstar, the internet will have a HUGE part in the game, providing the player a hub for numerous amounts of interactivity within Liberty CityPolice interaction will be completely different from previous GTAs. GTA IV will use a radar system to track you down. When you commit a crime, you will get 1 wanted star, and police will be tipped off to your current position. The only way police can give chase is if they physically see you.No pauses or loading screens when entering buildings.

You can find some more summarised info from the same mag at PGTA. Obviously its pretty much the same as that, but there are a few slight differences.

I worry if at some point the game gets too complex to keep track of. I want GTA, not WoW.

I'm really glad about that passenger thing, even the bad guys need a break once in a while

Well i think i like this, this is going to sound a game which doesn't have to be stuntable, sounds good as a game.

Another extract from the same magazine over at CVG produced this little tidbit that I don't recall seeing on the other sites:

Quote

one multiplayer mode will allow players to face off against each other, but they have to find each other first, before filling each other with lead. Apparently, players who commit enough crimes to raise their wanted level to seven stars will appear on the radar, opening the door for the other player to track them down and deal out some death.
