Okay some people think this is in Libirty city some people say it's the NYC. Me Personaly i think it would be damn sad if Rockstar used Libirty city because librity city is one fourth of the size of San Andras yeah 1/4. If they make this map i want San andras to be 1 fourth of the size GTA IV is.

Liberty City is NYC. They are going after real life locations with GTA4.

Does it matter? if so; why? It could be liberty city but be bigger; theres nothing stopping them from doing that. Ultimately location seems to have very little to do with the game....

It's Liberty City. Watch the trailer, you can't miss the rather large clues.

I think the main character is Middle Eastern because of his cool accent. I also think that the game will not only take place in Liberty City but other venues from the popular series such as San Andreas and Vice City - shoot, the game might even go over into Europe and South East Asia.

 

Rockstar will definitely deliver a sweet sweet game. (And humorous at that 8) )

It's LC. LC has always been modeled after NYC. Look at the map of the first GTA and you'll see LC has the same layout as NYC

The main character is CLEARLY russian, or from the baltic countries. I never played GTA 3, so I don;t know Liberty City...but judging by the Empire State building, statue of liberty, and times square, I would have to say its NYC.

 

 

So, a Russian in NYC.....

 Awesome!

Have you guys travelled much? THE MAIN CHARACTER IS RUSSIAN, just listen to the accent. All in all a really great trailer. I hope those visuals can be achieved in game, for some reason im doubtful.

His accent sounds Slavic, not Middle Eastern, meaning he is probaly from Eastern Europe.

No it's not. The only thing that had a refrance to liberty city was the boat that said "liberty city" and seeing that the statue of liberty, timesquare and other famous NEW YORK locations were there, chances are that the boat came FROM Liberty City into NYC.

There are a lot more referances than just the boat.  Found this on another forum:

Liberty City is NYC, just like Vice City is Miami, Los Santos is Los Angeles etc.

Liberty City = New York City.

In any case, it's called Liberty City in GTAIV. The word "Liberty" is shown quite a few times in the trailer. The statue of Liberty tells us that they're revamping the whole city which is exciting.

Guys OMG. Like the "Vegas" in San Andreas didn't look a hell of a lot like real vegas, but they didnt call it Vegas. Just because they have "real" landmarks in the game, doesn't mean they have to call them by thier actual name, or call the city by its actual name. Its Fiction. And the boat says Liberty City, so they are calling NYC in this Fictional account, Liberty City.

wow...

 

liberty city IS NYC....

 

gta 3 was a mockup of nyc...central park is in it....and a poorly done timesquare..STAUNTON ISLAND = STATEN ISLAND but it was really manhattan....shoreside vale was new jersey around the fortlee area..it was just a really bad version of nyc...they prollly figured since the did such a good job on making vice city more like miami and san andreas more like vegas/los angeles that they should redo liberty city and this time make it look a lot more like nyc....and thats what they are doing...

 

NYC = LIBERTY CITY

Yup.

It says Liberty not Liberty City. Pause as soon as the boat scene comes up and you will see it doesnt say City as the second word.

Sorry, but in todays culture there is no fiction. To understand what fiction is one has to think and we discourage thinking in modern america; as far as modern America is concerned this here middle eastern character/ foreigner is a terruuuurrrrist! And that thar liberty city is the new yorks! We don't want none tarrruuuusts in this here country! Now lets all go to mcdonalds and get fatter.
