Computerbild-Spiele, a German magazine has released some new information on GTA 4, over a massive 5 pages in it's latest issue. We thank GTAlien and Freezer89 of the GTA Forums for translating the article. We obtained from it:

• The preview was hands-on, which means the game was played by the journalists as opposed to a representative from Rockstar.
• The missions that were played appear to be the same ones that were previewed by the online press last month.
• Pedestrian reactions are more true-to-life than in previous games.
• The WASTED! system is still intact. If you die, you end up at the nearest hospital (minus your weapons) the next morning.
• One button press will get you into a car. A second button press is required to start up the car's engine.
• Niko wears a helmet while riding motorcycles.
• Surroundings are more interactive (bullet holes from gunfire, environment reacting to explosions, etc).
• You can find "useful things" in cars that you hijack.

If any new things come from the article we will keep you updated. We have added this new information to our 10th Known Facts page.
