Page 7 shows the new HUD. The new HUD am FUGLY

I'd just like to say that I fucking KNEW that GTAIV was an evolution of systems used in The Warriors and Bully - particularly the way they handle the way the police are handled...if you do a crime in The Warriors, the ped has to call the police before they arrive, ditto in GTAIV. This review confirms it.

Meh. What they should have copied from The Warriors is the melee combat system.

It looks great in videos. The screen caps however are absolutely random. Some times it looks great, sometimes it looks wtf.

It is pretty evident why they only show X360 screens. That's marketing for you.

There is a reason for this. In past GTA's, you RARELY used hand to hand. However, in IV, it will be a while before you get your first gun. So you're going to have to use your fists a lot more often.
