GTA 4 trailer is definitely heating up the Internet as people are analyzing every detail of the trailer. Today, Computerandvideogame.com has posted 10 things that you might have missed in the trailer. The old adage action speaks louder than words ring true to this instance because so many little details are presented on this trailer that clearly illustrates the world of next gen Grand Theft Auto 4. Rockstar does not need to be vocal about their upcoming series as the trailer states confidently where this game is headed.

Here are some things you might have missed:

It’s Liberty City!
Despite internet reports claiming otherwise, GTA IV is indeed set (at least partially) in Liberty City - or more likely Liberty State, the area beyond Liberty City. If you’re still not convinced, you can see the words ‘Liberty City’ plastered on a docked tanker in the trailer, a ferry and of course there’s also a glimpse of the ‘LCPD’ patrolling the GTA IV streets.

As you can see from the comparison screenshots at the bottom of the page, the layout of GTA IV’s Liberty City seems to resemble we remember from the PS2 - though obviously there’s a whole lot of extra detail washed onto the streets.

As for what’s beyond the walls of the famous GTA III locale, the trailer confirms GTA versions of the Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty and a fun park including rollercoaster, which were all missing from the PS2 instalment.

Visit Vice City!
Keen-eyed viewers with seriously-ninja Photoshop skills will notice an interesting in-game ad five seconds into the trailer. On the top left of the shot just above the wall is a sign that says “Visit Vice City - $300″, leading many internet forums to explode with messages of “OMG!!11 MULTIPLE CITIEZ IN GTAIV!1″

So yeah, we might be getting a tiny bit ahead of ourselves taking this tiniest of glimpses as evidence that GTA IV will contain multiple, country-wide locals, but what would be more next-gen than a trip to all three cities that we’ve explored so vigorously on PS2? Having said that, would Vice City even look like Vice City in a modern day setting?
