| - The first trailer for Grand Theft Auto IV, entitled Things Will Be Different, was released on March 29, 2007 at 22:00 UTC. At the time the trailer was released, Rockstar's servers for the trailer's official website became almost immediately overloaded. The trailer is 1:03 in length and features the main protagonist Niko Bellic, who has a brief monologue: "Life is complicated; I killed people, smuggled people, sold people. Perhaps here, things will be different." The trailer ends with the "IV" and fades out to the Rockstar logo. File:Grand Theft Auto IV Trailer 1

| - The first trailer for Grand Theft Auto IV, entitled Things Will Be Different, was released on March 29, 2007 at 22:00 UTC. At the time the trailer was released, Rockstar's servers for the trailer's official website became almost immediately overloaded. The trailer is 1:03 in length and features the main protagonist Niko Bellic, who has a brief monologue: "Life is complicated; I killed people, smuggled people, sold people. Perhaps here, things will be different." The trailer ends with the "IV" and fades out to the Rockstar logo. The trailer features several New York City landmarks, including locations and structures resembling the Coney Island Cyclone (Firefly Island Screamer), Times Square (Star Junction), the Statue of Liberty (Statue of Happiness), the Empire State Building (Rotterdam Tower), the Chrysler Building (Zirconium Building) and the MetLife Building (branded as "GetaLife"). You will notice the Ferry Terminal and the way letters are missing. This shows us it isn't all pristine and still has all that GTA charm. The trailer uses a similar cinematic style to Godfrey Reggio's 1982 documentary film Koyaanisqatsi and used Philip Glass's original music from the film (the opening and closing stanzas of the track "Pruit-Igoe") as well as emulated time-lapsed filming from "The Grid". Rockstar has stated that all the trailer's footage is in high-definition 720p, generated real-time by the game's RAGE engine, running on an actual game console. The music used in this trailer is "Pruit Igoe" by Philip Glass, which is featured on the Journey. File:Grand Theft Auto IV Trailer 1
