With the arrival of summer, our site is developing more and more dynamically and is almost back to its old self. Our goal, of course, is to have more and more people visit the site, and for our visitors to find all the important information they might need.
The Codename GTA website is launching a new column! And the star of the column could be you yourself!
If you're one of the many Grand Theft Auto fans out there, you've probably watched the second trailer, "Looking for That Special Someone", dozens of times already (if you haven't seen it yet, now is the time).
Last week a small change took place in New York, on one corner of the intersection of Canal and Green Street. Until now, the well-known Roman numeral 4 stood on the wall of the building, with a "Coming Soon" sign underneath.
A few of you have already mentioned it in the news comments or on the forum, but I couldn't find it. What is it? 8-Ball and the others from GTA3 on the graffiti-bombed wall in the second trailer.
Back then (towards the end of April, to be exact) we forgot to report that Take Two Interactive, the publisher of the GTA games among others, won a campaign against "the bogeyman of the gaming world".
It looks like the first announced GTA IV voice actor is none other than Ukrainian beauty Ruslana, winner of the 2004 Eurovision Song Contest.
The website Gamevideos.com has put together a nice, high-quality video that spends almost eight minutes analysing the second trailer of the upcoming game. They speak English in the video, but I don't think that should cause the Hungarian GTA community too much of a headache. You can watch the clip below.
While browsing, I came across a neat, action-packed video that its maker, wowhollywood, put together from the first and second GTA IV trailers. Here it is:
To celebrate the release of the "Looking for That Special Someone" trailer, the fan site GTAGaming.com has put out an unofficial wallpaper pack, put together from the artwork released so far, in the usual GTA style of course.
As we reported earlier, Rockstar will release a pack called the GTA IV Special Edition alongside the standard game in October (you can check out its contents here). Accordingly, the pack can already be pre-ordered on the [Rockstar Warehouse](https://web.archive.org/web/20070614164452/http://rockstarwarehouse.com) site for both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 for a measly 89.99 dollars.
The July issue of the American Official Xbox Magazine has published a new piece of information that hasn't been mentioned anywhere else so far. When the journalists testing the demo approached a parked car, ready to steal it, and walked past the back of the vehicle, a small message popped up: Press LB to open boot.
