Grand Theft Auto IV Walkthrough

When you gain control, save your game and explore the tiny apartment. You could get sucked in by the television in Roman's living room, so feel free to flick it on if you want some laughs. Otherwise, head out into the hallway and run down onto the street, all the while paying attention to the on-screen prompts that will let you know how to do various things. This is a Grand Theft Auto game, however, so now it's time to steal your first car!

It's doubtful, but if you're somehow new to the Grand Theft Auto series, jacking a car is as simple as walking up to the driver's side or passenger's door of any given car (not a cop car, unless you have a death wish) and pressing the corresponding button on your control scheme to get in. Remember -- the citizenry of Liberty City is crazy, and many of them will fight back (just take a look at the pictures below of the cab we stole. The cabbie hung on to the car for dear life!)

Once you've secured a ride, getting to the "R" on your HUD (representing Roman) is as simple as heading north up Mohawk Avenue for several blocks. Once you do, you'll want to swing left on Cisco Street. The taxi office will be on your left before the street ends. Park in front of it where the arrows direct you and you'll witness another cutscene. This time, you'll meet Mallorie, Roman's "something", and his hardass boss, Vlad. You'll also get your second mission.
