Where next for GTA IV?
We explore more New York inspirations for Rockstar's epic
Central Park
What's the fuss about?
Like with Bronx Zoo, we reckon there's plenty of dark enjoyment to be had hunting wildlife through a GTA IV version of the tranquil leafy surroundings of Central Park. But, forget the murderising just a for a second, because there's plenty of other possibilities in New York's biggest green space.
What about triathlons through the park's huge expanse? Or opportunities for Rockstar to take a dig at Alone in the Dark's conspiracy-theory focus on the area, complete with buried Easter Eggs under the surface?
And, finally, since we're shooting for the moon here, what about a full weather system - something similar perhaps to that used in Canis Canem Edit - which would see Central Park shrouded in typically thick New York snow drifts? Cue harmless, but very fun snowball fights.
