Nice Hat, Niko!

Rockstar is very good at adding cute touches and ALMOST getting them right. In the same way that the $200 jillion company can't ever seem to find a closed-caption writer who can spell, they come THIS CLOSE to nailing a great touch on GTA IV's motorcycles.

When Niko (you, the player) gets on a motorcycle and drives off in a panic, it's the same as it's been since GTA Vice City, other than the extra-slippery streets of course. But linger a bit, take your time getting on the bike, and Niko fishes out a motorcycle helmet from the same magical bag of holding he uses to carry weapons. Get off the motorcycle, and he'll discard it a few steps away.

What's not perfect? Get on the same motorcycle again, and presto-chango another magic helmet.

In GTA IV, motorcycles are perpetual helmet generators!

About GTA Confidential

GTA Confidential is a community site started by a couple of ex-industry gearheads in which we study, admire, play and dissect Grand Theft Auto.

We've canned the old site for this fresh start: we'll be collecting maps, tips, walkthroughs and other interesting GTA IV related stuff here, with something new every day or so. If you're looking for our older writings on San Andreas or older games, you're out of luck, sorry.
