GTA IV: Pushing people down steps

VIDEO: Niko helps Liberty City residents eat step

Words: Justin Towell, GamesRadar UK

GTA IV just keeps on giving. It's been out for a whole year and we're still finding hours and hours of entertainment in little things. Like... pushing people down steps.

The Euphoria engine allows pedestrians to react realistically to forces from any direction. Which means a gentle nudge on the steps (or a less gentle thwack with a baseball bat) will send them tumbling arse over tit. It really shouldn't be as fun as it is but it kept us amused for ages. Especially when they say things like 'Aw, Hell, I don't need this!" Enjoy.

Note: There is some violence, swearing and blood in this video of an 18-rated game.

WHY DOESN'T THE VIDZ WORK!!!!!! xD

@deathrebellion - have you got your age set correctly? If you're under 18, the video simply won't show up for you as we've marked it mature. If you're over 18, change your preferences (perhaps on a video you CAN see) and you should be fine.

I want to know how to throw the phone at people.
GamesRadarJustinTowell  - 7 months 21 days ago 
To throw a phone (but not your own) just bump into someone who's talking on their mobile and they'll drop it. Pick it up with L1 and then you can target them with L2 and throw it with R2. Also works with hamburgers!

lol @ kubes, you can also pick up beer bottles just like the phones and hamburgers, but if you're playing online none of the stuff shows up in your hand on the other people's screens, I never knew you could do it with phones though this video's awesome
