Grand Theft Auto IV's story mode can be beaten in less than 30 hours, and there are so many optional
activities
and side missions to take part in along the way that you can
comfortably double that number if you're in no hurry. The majority of
the story missions task you with making
deliveries and/or killing people, and play out in much the same way as those in previous games. With that said, most of
the missions
are a lot easier this time around, partly because Niko is a more agile
and efficient killer than any of his predecessors, and partly because
the LCPD seemingly has better things to do than hunt down an illegal
immigrant who's gunning down undesirables all over the city. Some of the
more imaginative missions sprinkled throughout the story include a
kidnapping, a bank heist, and a job
interview.
The cinematic cutscenes associated with story missions are superbly
presented and are the sequences in which the game's characters really
shine. Without exception, the characters you encounter benefit from
great animation, great voice work, and superbly expressive faces.
They're not always so impressive when they join you on a mission and
refuse to do what they're supposed to (for example, not following you
on an escort mission, or failing to negotiate a doorway). Nevertheless,
these problems are few and far between, and they're made less painful
by the new "replay mission" option that you're presented with whenever
you fail.
