New GTA IV details, scans

German video game magazine Games Aktuell landed a pretty nice scoop on a few new details about the eagerly awaited Grand Theft Auto IV (for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3). Since we don’t speak German here, we’re turning to Gamers-Creed for the translations.

First off, let’s talk a bit about the girl in the scan to your right. Apparently, her name is Lola. Speculation has her pegged as a prostitute for now, but details about her background have yet to be revealed. She does look pretty fine, though.

The tongue-in-cheek humor of the series is also still very much alive in Grand Theft Auto IV. In a mission where Niko has to kill a lawyer named Goldberg, the lawyer reportedly says, “I don’t fear guns. You know, guns don’t kill people – Videogames kill people.”

Here are a few more details for you guys to ponder:

• There won’t be any Ammu Nation shops in the game
• Niko can get a cab to take him to any point on the map. Cabbies will also take Niko to the nearest restaurant if he’s hungry, or to the nearest hospital if he’s wounded. However, he won’t stand a chance of getting a cab if the cops are after him.
• The camera is now positioned at a point lower and further to the left when driving a car. Rockstar reportedly did this to give the game a more realistic feeling. Camera views can still be changed, though.
• During a mission, the map will also show the best route to wherever Niko is supposed to go apart from a symbol.
